NVDA Has Arrived at Mike's Technical Inflection Point

On September 28, 2023, with NVDA trading at 429.31, I told MPTrader members that my work is warning me about a complex technical setup that argues for a prolonged corrective scenario prior to a resumption of dominant uptrend strength. I posted the following:
My near-term pattern and momentum work argue that since its 9/21/23 corrective low at 409.80 off of its spike to All-Time New Highs at 520 in reaction to earnings on 8/24/23, NVDA is in the grasp of a recovery rally effort that when exhausted, will roll over into another downleg within a larger, still incomplete correction off of the 520 high. For the time being, I am expecting NVDA to claw its way to 436-444 resistance, which is the first zone from where a downside reversal could emerge. If 444 is hurdled and sustained, however, then the counter-trend rally effort will point still higher, into the 460 to 480 target zone prior to my pattern expectation for a powerful downside reversal... Last is 429.31...
Fast-forward across multiple subsequent NVDA updates and discussions in the MPTrader chat room, we see on my attached 4-hour Candle Chart, that NVDA proceeded to follow my preferred recovery rally price path from his 9/28 update price of 429.31 to a 10/12 rally peak at 476.09-- near the top of my peak pivot zone of 460 to 480, from where NVDA turned down into a relentless decline that as we speak, is testing key June-September low-zone support from 396 to 410.
NVDA now finds itself at a consequential technical inflection plateau the resolution of which will determine the direction of the next 25% price move. What forthcoming clues will NVDA provide for me and our members that its directional bias is tilting in one direction or the other in the hours and days directly ahead?

More Top Calls From Mike
ARKK (ARK Innovation Fund, ETF)-- Back on August 20, 2025, this is what we discussed about ARKK:Fellow member Pawel has requested an update on Cathie Wood's fund, which in June thrust up and out of a 3-1/2 year base-accumulation period and pattern above 68.40/50 that subsequently climbed to my initial target in the vicinity of 80 (see my attached Daily Chart). Since the 7/21/25 high at 79.
On July 31, 2025, with SLV (Silver ETF) trading at 33.27, this is what we discussed about my technical setup:SLV-- On the subject of tariffs, copper, and silver, Trump extended the tariff deal with Mexico for 90 days, which included steel and copper, but NO MENTION of Silver (so far). Let's notice on my attached 4-Hour chart of SLV that the week-long nosedive from 35.91 to this AM's low at 33.
On February 18, 2025, this is what I posted on MPTrader about KWEB (Chinese Internet ETF) that alerted traders to a potentially explosive setup that should keep KWEB on our radar screens going forward :My attached Daily Chart shows that KWEB is attempting to emerge from a huge, three-year rounded base-accumulation setup that projects much higher prices as the price structure climbs the "recovery wall of worry" in the aftermath of the relentless bear phase from the February 2021 ATH at 104.
On July 29, 2025, this is what we discussed about TEVA (Teva Pharma), accompanied by my then-current 4-Hour Chart, just ahead of Earnings:My attached 4-Hour Chart setup argues that TEVA is poised for upside continuation of its April-May advance (12.47 to 18.67) EITHER right from current levels in reaction to a positive Earnings Report tomorrow morning, OR into a BTD bout of weakness into the 14.85-15.55 target support window.
On the morning of August 6th, I posted the chart below after seeing Fundstrat's Tom Lee discuss his CEO position in BMNR (BitMine Immersion Technologies), and the fact that BMNR was accumulating a large cache of Ethereum (ETH) that will serve as an ETH Treasury holding similar to the Bitcoin model used by Microstrategy's Michael Saylor. At the time, BNMR had climbed from 31.85 to 33.70, which piqued my attention technically:"BNMR ... once again is putting upward pressure on the 34.
