The Nasdaq index corrected higher and technically moved above the 200-hour MA at 14603.25. That break was short-lived, however, and the price is now comfortably below that MA level at 14524. That keeps the short/medium-term bias more tilted to the downside. It would take a move and close above to help the short-term bias.
