A Look at QQQ Over the Long Trend

I am a big believer in big tech and it's disruption over the long term, but the recent action in the stock market has made me take a step back and study how the QQQ index has performed over the longer term. I have plotted the chart dating back to the 2009 bottom and there seems to be a clear uptrend since then. We checked back to that uptrend line a few times and have continued moving higher. Recent action in the stock market seems to be forming a top formation, which is a very bearish indicator. We might be getting into a head and shoulders pattern over the short term and I will make the bet that we break that head and shoulder pattern and fall into the longer term uptrend of the QQQ's. I will look for some support at the 159 and hope that holds for some sideways movement in the short term.
