Chart analysis suggests Qualcomm could begin to recover as it approaches significant support, now 87 cents away from $104.9. Dipping below could be an indication that further losses are ahead. Trend-focused traders 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. Momentum evaluation shows that the Relative Strength Index indicates Qualcomm is in an oversold condition, which could precipitate a reversal and set up a new bullish phase. Analysis based on the asset volatility indicates that Bollinger Bands® shows an indication of recovery: the lower band is at $104.86, a low enough level to, generally, suggest that Qualcomm is trading below its fair value.
With market volatility ebbing, the current technical outlook indicates Qualcomm will remain range-bound for the immediate future.
