NDX Nears Resistance

The S&P 500 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average are sailing in new all-time high territory.  Absent from the headlines is the Nasdaq, which has also been on a tear to the upside but is now approaching an important test.

The bias in the $NDX is bullish as it pushes above nearby resistance at 4573.  A move over this level would next target a test of the high-volume area resistance at 4612 – 4694.  This is a resistance zone that must be overcome to allow the wider bullish story in stocks to continue.  A failure by the NDX to break above this resistance zone and especially any negative rejection from a test to this zone, would impair the ability for the SPX and DJIA to continue their ventures into further new all-time high territory.  The bullish bias in the NDX will remain firmly intact while above 4467.  Only a failure to hold above 4467 on a pullback would negate the current bullish bias.
