The Nasdaq 100 (QQQ) rebounded to its 21-day exponential average and a 50% retracement of the recent pullback on Friday, April 26, and then stalled. As long as the index does not make a lower low, the next and more-important resistance is the breakdown level up at 435 -- which is also a 61.8% retracement and the location of the 50-day moving average. The two most-common pullbacks are a three-wave and a five-wave decline. It is still unclear what is currently in play, but we would lean toward a new pullback low.
