Even more AMD is in the pursue to catch up with NVIDIA’s (NASDAQ:NVDA) latest improvements introduced with Vega APU’s.

Weekly Chart – INTC Projection:
Without any further delays lets jump into INTC Weekly Chart
INTC INTEL Corporation Expected to Extend Higher: Weekly Chart
INTEL in the weekly time frame is showing a diagonal formation from the 02/2009 cycle lows. The 02/2009 cycle was completed at the 37.80’s peak from where the correction in wave ii started. Hence, at this stage it seems like we have a wave i or a alternatively in place for cycle 02/2009.
From there corrected by 50% the 02/2009 cycle in a classical Zig Zag formation which marked wave ii. Price bounced up again and created new highs up to 38.20’s. A fact suggesting we should continue higher while price holds above the invalidation level at the 24.80’s. While that is the case, we are looking for the first set of equal legs (100%) – 1.236% extension at the zone of 46.90’s – 50.10’s which at this stage we would like to set as a target zone.
To Sum up – INTC Projection:
Finally and most importantly, to confirm the move higher we need to see a break above the 01/27/2017 peak. A break above there should provide an extension to the next level of the 41.70 – 43.70 zone. Furthermore, after short term pull backs we should continue higher again. At the 46.90 we should hit the equal legs of the wave ((1)) – ((2)) swing in black yet there will be room for some extension higher to the 1.236% extension at the 50’s since at that level are the equal legs of the i – ii swing as well.
In contrast, a failure at this levels could indicated a double correction against the 08/2015 cycle. The 08/2015 cycle starts from wave ii red at the 24.80’s. Because INTC is bullish we won’t consider the short side if the double correction ends to be the case but in contrast buy the 3rd swing when it reaches the equal legs – 1.236% extension lower.
