This gives a signal that bear drawdown has weakness in it and bulls maybe taking over soon.
SMH trade ideas
SMH throws mixed signals compared to QQQSMH indicators, EMA crossover, and stock throws mixed signals
EMA remains below its SMA line
RSI breaks slightly above its SMA
stock price remains firmly inside lower resistance line
SMH is rather prone to false breakouts. So the RSI breakout above could be a fake out for sure. Prefer to wait for extra confirmation of new direction with SMH before making trades on it.
SMH is overall giving more bearish direction than bullish.
SMH closes lower on Monday tradingSMH starts showing direction as to where it is going... down.
3 separate points paint a clear downward resistance trend line
rejected hammer candle gave way for more selling
RSI still continues to trend down on multiple timeframes
SMH is starting to show signs of downward trend forming
Putting on a small put position to close in mid October. May expand on position if trend continues.
SMH in congested zone giving neutral sentimentSMH is not showing overall bull or bear sentiment at the moment. Giving a more neutral reading so far
EMA crosses back above sma giving bull sentiment
ema/sma cross overs do not work well when stock is trading flat
SMH is overall trading flat since the 19th
RSI is still below sma giving a more bearish indication
SMH is neutral at the moment. Other traders have called for further selling before rally resumes.
SMH shows signs of weakness for first time SMH rally is showing weakness in multiple places for first time.
EMA crosses below SMA for first time since rally started
RSI shows signs of price divergence by trending down while price makes higher highs.
This is more cautionary at this point and keep in mind. I wouldn't add to any bullish positions but instead tighten stop losses and seek to start taking some profits.
SMH rallies to new highs with room to goSMH rallied to new highs today and into higher trading area which originally appeared to be very overbought
1 hour interval shows both 10 and 20 RSI levels in overbought territory
2 hour interval shows 20 RSI having more room to grow.
initially exited riskiest positions figuring on this new high being way outside the bounds of normal
This is now looking to have some more room left in it.
expect a small pullback or pullback in time over the next day or two.
Monthly island reversal in the making?I was looking over some monthly charts today (in candlestick format) and this one stood out to me on the monthly as a possible topping pattern...a monthly island reversal. On the 1st trading day in June 2024 SMH gapped up but then on the first trading day in August 2024 it gapped down creating a visual island reversal look. Technically speaking I think Island Reversal gaps do not clear but instead "gap and go" so I'm sure someone will correct me if this is the case but visually speaking (if and only if this is a top) one could look back and suggest this to be the case after the fact.
And July 2024 created an "inside month"...another possible sign of a reversal.
If the gap down is no longer present at the end of August then I will stop myself out of this trade but it's worth a small short IMO.
SMH held its ground above key support levelToday was an important day for semi conductors. In order to solidify a bullish pivot it needed to remain above a key support level.
SMH held above key support
lack luster moves across the market indicated indecision and caution amongst traders about the future being bullish or bearish
This could mark the sign of a turn around to the upside longer term
considering the recent rally and today's modest moves, this could be the distribution phase of the rally cycle which would mark a small pullback in the coming days
SMH breaks through key resistanceSMH breaks through key resistance giving a hint that downward trend could be coming to a close for the near term.
RSI continues to rise during recent rally which is a bullish sign
Flash crash we experienced on Fri-Mon tends to cause rallies which we have experienced thus far
potential breakout we are currently seeing could just be false breakout before retreating back into downward trend.
We should wait for pullback to resistance line and bounce upward to help confirm if this breakout will continue
Any trades made now should be done cautiously and in small amounts, the market could go in either direction.
Trades made now, should not be added onto until we have more confidence of the overall direction.
Opening (IRA): SMH Sept 20th 199 Covered Call... for a 192.24 debit.
Comments: (High IVR/IV at 108.2/47.6). Buying stock and selling -75 calls against to emulate the delta metrics of a 25 delta short put, but with built-in short call defense.
Will generally look to take profit at 50% max; roll out the short call for duration and credit on test.
SMH tests major resistance lineSMH approaches major resistance line after flash crash a few days ago
SMH rallies to major resistance line
20 RSI remains below 50 which is a bearish sign that the recent rally is running out
shorter timeframes show a dramatic drop in volume during the rally which is another bearish indicator
August and September are historically bad months for the stock market
I am expecting SMH to test the resistance line, possibly breakthrough then pull back before continues selling.
Not putting on any trades, waiting for confirmation.
SMH breaks though support on increasing volumeSMH opened up selling off and continued to sell off through multiple periods.

Expect to see more selling to come
$SMH EFT Looking Good For BuysThe semiconductor NASDAQ:SMH headed towards the previous bullish structure zone and is currently printing a bullish engulfing candle above the $239 price level (support level).
Going to be deployment some more capital at this level, which is above 14% below it's previous high.
I believe semiconductor companies are going to be a very important part for the global space moving forward. Doesn't matter if your talking about AI, Machine Learning, Crypto, Tesla, whatever. Semiconductors are going to be necessary and needed in every aspect.

I want to accumulate more of SMH ETFLooking at the holdings , I will need less bullets to buy into these individual companies especially I had missed BIG TIME on Nvidia.
This war on semiconductor chips will make these companies that are manufacturing them very much valuable down the road. China is squeeze and is forced to build on its own, which will takes time but eventually , I expect China to come up with a more advanced product.
Accumulate on weakness.
