$Direxion Daily Semiconductors Bull 3x Shares(SOXL)$ $Direxion Daily Semiconductors Bear 3x Shares(SOXS)$ SOXX update. I'm still expecting the next bounce to target the 583-600 zone. The catch is that it needs buyers to step in and defend the 500 area to set that up. NVDA's earnings call offered a rosier tone for semis, but the follow-through didn't last and we saw another red candle. If price can stay supported near 500, there's a reasonable chance of at least trying for the 560 area again. Timing matters, though, and this needs to happen without dragging on. A convincing close below 500 on SOXX with real selling pressure would flip the setup bearish and point to
$Direxion Daily Semiconductors Bull 3x Shares(SOXL)$ Not tax advice or stock advice. I'm holding to avoid triggering the wash sale rule myself.

For optical traders, three columns worth noting: the last column is percentage up from the 52-week low, second from last is percentage down from the 52-week high, and third from last is RSI. I didn't realize $Applied Optoelectronics(AAOI)$ was down 51% from its 52-week high, but still up 515% from the 52-week low. That's pretty impressive. $Fabrinet(FN)$ only managed a 39% gain from its 52-week low while the others are showing triple-digit gains. Value buying? $Lumentum(LITE)$ leads the group with a 651% gain off the 52-week low. The frustrating part is I traded in and out and didn't capture much of that move.

$Direxion Daily Semiconductors Bull 3x Shares(SOXL)$ First there was a massive sell-off, then Citadel came through with a liquidity sweep trying to flush out Leopold, and now SOXS wants to take it down. It's the most hated ticker on Wall Street, and that's why I'm a proud owner.
