​​​Nasdaq 100 still moving higher

​The index has enjoyed an impressive run over the past week, bouncing off the 200-day simple moving average (SMA).​Further gains now target the 19,500 highs from 31 July and 1 August and the 50-day SMA. Beyond this lies the 20,000 level.

​So far there has been no indication of a reversal, though a drop below 18,800 might signal that some near-term weakness is at hand, potentially targeting the 200-day SMA once more, as well as the lows of August around 17,500.

​Dow is back above 40,000

​The rebound goes on for this index too, having recouped the 40,000 level, and in early trading, it is testing the 40,080 highs from May.

​Additional gains would now take the price on to 41,000 and then 41,382, the latter being the record high. Sellers will need a reversal back below 39,000 to indicate a new test of the early August low around 38,500.
