Trend-following investors would be interested to note that the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) indicator is below -100, meaning the market price is unusually low and below its rolling moving average. Technical analysis indicates that a new, strong downtrend could be forthcoming with short positions favored. Analysis based on the asset volatility indicates that Bollinger Bands® shows an indication of recovery: the lower band is at $112.55, a low enough level to, generally, suggest that Qualcomm is trading below its fair value. Chart analysis suggests Qualcomm bounced after reaching the $112.27 support zone, climbing $1.49 above it.
With market volatility ebbing, the current technical outlook indicates Qualcomm will remain range-bound for the immediate future.
