📅 Date: 17.05.2025

Last week, the NASDAQ 100 continued its impressive rebound after a period of consolidation, posting strong gains and reclaiming key technical levels.

  • Weekly Performance: The index gained approximately +3.2%, powered by strength in large-cap tech and semiconductor names.

  • Market Drivers: The move was supported by better-than-expected inflation data and a dovish tone in the latest Fed minutes, which increased market confidence in a potential rate pause this summer.

  • Technical Outlook:

    • The index successfully closed back above the 200-day moving average (currently near 4910).

    • It also broke through short-term resistance in the 4880–4890 range.

    • The RSI pushed past 59, indicating continued bullish momentum.

Looking Ahead:
The NASDAQ 100 now sits in a bullish technical setup. If the breakout holds, a move toward the previous highs could be in play. However, the 5000–5030 zone remains a major resistance area to watch.

How The Nasdaq Tactical Model Has Performed Over Time

Every week, I share an updated look at how my Nasdaq Tactical Strategy has performed in historical backtests. This ensures full transparency and allows you to compare the strategy's results against traditional Buy & Hold investing.

📊 Backtest Results (1999-2025):

💡 Why This Works
Unlike traditional investing, this model avoids catastrophic losses by dynamically shifting between 3x leveraged Nasdaq ETFs (TQQQ/3QQQ) and cash (T-Bills) when the trend weakens. I chose the worst start time in NASDAQ history, just before the dotcom bubble burst. However, the performance is tremendous.

✅ Survived the Dotcom Bubble (-29% vs. -99%)
✅ Handled 2008 better than Buy & Hold (-34% vs. -93%)
✅ Managed 2022 tech sell-off with controlled losses (-46%)
