Anything Can Happen

Yes … anything can happen but what’s the most likely thing?

At this juncture, based on price action so far (as of 11:38 a.m., EST), the SOXX looks like it will penetrate the blue line resistance tomorrow or the day after (not advice, not a recommendation).

That penetration should it happen, will set-up a potential reversal (Wyckoff up-thrust) condition.

Exactly how that action will take place is unknown. Nvidia (NVDA) is scheduled to release earnings tomorrow after the close.

Semiconductor SOXX, Daily

The chart shows a potential target area.

The target is right in the vicinity of a 50%, retrace from the reversal high (7/31/23), to the low, set last Friday the 18th.

Positioning

Based on the behavior of price action during the last session, it was clear for the short term, higher action in SOXX and lower action in SOXS was probable

With that, even though the stop of SOXS 9.93 was not hit (as it was today), a discretionary exit was made at SOXS 10.51, which yielded about +8.4% on the trade.

Next Steps

On the sidelines for now (not advice, not a recommendation) and watching closely.

It seems the mania has increased all the more even though we’re past the top on the SOXX.
