The performance of software producer Descartes Systems Group (DSG.TO) provides an example of the relative strength roller coaster ride technology stocks have been on within equity markets this year. Back in December and January, DSG.TO dropped from the green zone in the SIA S&P/TSX Composite Index Report down into the red zone. It remained depressed until June when it rallied back up into the green zone. Since the beginning of August, Descartes’ relative strength has been eroding and it recently dropped back into the Yellow Neutral Zone. Yesterday it finished in 66th place, down 2 spots on the day and down 11 positions in the last month.

A summer bounce peaked in August and since then the shares have been under renewed distribution, consistently setting lower highs over the last month.

What started as an orderly decline appears to be accelerating. Recent downward pulses (red circle) have been on volume spikes (black circle) indicating increased selling pressure and the shares have taken out their 50-day average plus a recent low, confirming the start of a new downleg.
