class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t<p>With the NASDAQ up 40% for the year, it is hard to pick a level above as a target, so while we&#8217;re continuing to make weekly highs, it is a case of buying the dip until there is a Government or Fed policy change or until a significant market structure is taken out. 12580 in the futures was intraday support yesterday with the significant low being the December 10th low at 12217. \u00a0If prices were to drop below that low, we&#8217;d look to the swing from the week beginning 20th September, but this is unlikely while the MACD is showing bullish momentum and price action is also rising.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section
