I'm short ALTR at 19.05 and AMAT at 15.62. Looking at monthly charts I can still see another potential dip for AMAT below 11:

ALTR looks much better after 4 solid months of accumulation with rising volume:

I would not be surprised to see the SOX fall back below 340 to near 330 but there is a lot of positive momentum still in play until we see rising volume in the market on sell off days.

Today may have signaled a short term market turn:

But it has not been confirmed as a trend change by a longshot so your upside targets certainly are not out of the question.
