Qualcomm had a golden cross formation on November 17, 2021, then traded to its two-year high of $193.58 on January 5, 2022. The decline that followed confirmed a death cross formation on April 21, 2022. Remember that a golden cross occurs when the 50-day simple moving average rises above the 200-day simple moving average. A death cross happens when the 50-day SMA falls below the 200-day SMA. Note that on April 3, 2023, there was a failed attempt at a golden cross.
The 2023 low of $101.47 was set on May 25. This was a key reversal buy signal as the close that day at $104.02 was above the May 24 high of $103.14. This began the rebound that has stalled so far below the annual pivot at $121.10.
The horizontal lines from bottom to top are the annual pivot at $121.10, the quarterly risky level at $137.06, and the semiannual risky level at $175.00.
