Lucid and Rivian, both new components of the NASDAQ:NDX , have been showing up on the High-Volume Institutional Activity recently. NASDAQ:LCID has the beginnings of a bottom attempt developing with a Dark Pool buy zone emerging, but it's been slow-going for this EV company. Professional short-term trading is evident in the current run up, as it is in other EV...
The big season for vacations starts this week as schools close, graduations begin, weddings increase, and families plan big vacations this year. BKNG has had HFTs attempting to sell it down several times but it holds within a sideways trend still. This implies hidden accumulation. If it breaks to the upside, then this sideways trend becomes support. BKNG...
The Weekly Chart of NASDAQ:COIN shows that the stock has been struggling to build a bottom despite some early buying from large lots within the sideways action of the bottoming range. Coinbase has future growth potential as an investment, but the CEO and Board need to realize that the SEC rules the securities markets and that Cryptos, as digital assets, are...
NVDA's gap up on a stellar earnings report should NOT have been a surprise, as the chart has been showing strength since January when I mentioned it in my Morning Reports. It was completing the bottom at that time. The trend upward was showing pro traders in control of price after Dark Pool quiet accumulation. It has 64% of the shares held by institutions, which...
Zoom is showing a pre-earnings release run up out of its extreme low, ahead of its Q1 report today. The current run's pattern is indicative of professional traders swing trading with earnings strategies; they tend to take profits on the report since they bought at the low. While revenues are likely to come in below last quarter, earnings should improve over the...
Professional traders controlled this sideways pattern that held higher lows before the break to the upside and gap up above the W bottom completion resistance, which is now strong support. Short-term profit-taking at the resistance overhead is something to prepare for now.
A setup that implies a potentially strong earnings report. HFTs could gap this stock. It has been as high as $50.
Morgan Stanley has a pre-earnings run moving up to its earnings report ahead of the open tomorrow. Last quarter had a similar setup for swing trading. The Year over Year comparisons are no longer impacted by the benefits of the 2020 - 2021 pandemic, when a few stocks had way above normal revenues. This is making many companies show what appears to be far better...
Resistance Analysis in Bottoming Stocks: Looking Ahead to Q1 2023 Earnings Stocks that are slowly crawling their way out of the correction of 2022 are now moving up to challenge the more difficult resistance levels from the intermediate-term downtrend. These resistance levels are sideways trends that developed during the downtrend of 2022 to the bottom low....
Most people assume layoffs are going to drive the price of the stock down. NOPE, general consensus on the professional side is the sooner layoffs begin, the faster the company can recover from declining revenues and earnings, and reinvent. META is a stock in a sub-industry that has few members, hence it is used in many ETFs and mutual funds due to that rare...
The Diversified Industrials Industry is expected to have good growth this year. GTLS is in that industry. The stock is developing a bottom with intermittent institutional accumulation at a strong support level from 2022. Percentage of Shares Held by Institutions is very high. When the bottom completes, this will be a good candidate for all styles of...
CAT developed one of the entry signals I teach this week. The stock rebounded from testing the lows of the trading range. Hybrid indicators suggest large-lot buying is triggering in the lows of the range. Point gain potential may be limited by the sideways trading range developing, but swing trading can be done within the range if you can catch the entry early in...
CRM reports earnings next week. This was a pre-earnings run that settled into an unstable sideways trend and then went down due to a lack of strong retail buying. Volume is exceedingly low to the downside. This is not a sell short setup. Buy zone support is too close from the bottom formation. NVDA had a similar pattern and gapped up on its earnings release news.
ROKU has an incomplete bottom ahead of its earnings report later this week. The technical patterns don't indicate a bad report, just not a great one. There is some accumulation and a shift of sentiment around the lows of the bottom formation, which are likely to provide support. It is unlikely that this stock would drop further than the Dark Pool Buy Zone unless...
GOOG shows a failure to complete a bottom. The stock moved up and above the resistance level that needs to sustain to complete its bottom, but it failed to sustain the gains. This stock was part of the last New Tech Virtual Course I did, since it is developing several new technologies for its own use and to sell to other companies. AI is the big competition...
Disney is in the retail news a lot these days but the chart has a pre-earnings run in anticipation that Year over Year financials will look a lot better than it did most of 2022. This stock has been as high as $200 a share so it has plenty of room to continue upward. HOWEVER, it is over-speculated right now so profit-taking on the earnings release, good or bad,...
This old company struggled to reinvent after the banking debacle destroyed its consumer financing division. Older companies CAN reinvent and start a new life. I'm showing the Weekly Chart first so you can see the support zone below and the strong resistance above, where the stock may head sideways for a time. Around $67 is the high of a completed short-term...
JPMorgan Chase (JPM) reported earnings today for the 4th quarter. There was no surprise for the professionals and for the Dark Pool Buy Side Institutions. They already knew what the numbers would be. Today's candle was not just a bullish engulfing candle. It is what we, at TechniTrader, call a major fundamental REVERSAL candlestick pattern. This is a huge...
