Buy
4-Nov-08. The market is rejoicing this morning, presumably over the prospect of a sane and sensible President Obama. I am dipping my toe back into the market by purchasing Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs). QQQQ tracks the index of the top 100 Nasdaq stocks.
- Percentage price oscillator (PPO) — accelerating sharply
- Volume — very heavily traded, even on a light day
Based on technical analysis, MarketEdge calls QQQQ an "avoid" in a "strong downward trend."
