Thanks to everyone who participated in last week’s mystery chart.
We asked whether the chart could make a decisive upside resolution out of its consolidation pattern, or if this level will continue to act as resistance and keep a cap on prices.
The responses were mixed, with many wanting to wait for more information. In many cases, people were looking for confirmation of a breakout.
The chart was a daily candlestick view of the iShares Semiconductor Index ETF $SOXX.
Not much has changed since we first posted the chart. In fact, price has yet to make a decisive move from this key level. Let’s dive in and see what’s happening and where it’s likely headed.
