$QBTS: Earnings Beat, Revenue Miss, and Bullish Analyst Ratings
I have taken a half-size position in D-Wave Quantum based on its future bookings and today’s bounce off the 21 EMA, which I believe creates an attractive risk-reward setup. For this trade, I plan to use a tight stop on a decisive close below the 21 EMA. Longer-term investors may prefer to place a stop below the 50 DMA.
• I have identified overhead resistance just above the current price.
• This area is marked by the horizontal line on the chart and the AVWAP shown in white from the all-time high.
QBTS has also received several analyst upgrades, with price targets ranging from $40 to $43 per share. Compared with today’s price of just under $22, that implies more than 80% potential upside.
Earnings Summary
D-Wave Quantum recently reported quarterly results that were better than expected on earnings, although revenue came in below estimates.

Note
$NYSE:QBTS is experiencing a breakout with significant trading volume. In just about 35 minutes, we have already surpassed the average daily volume. The reason for this surge is the U.S. government's investment in the company. Whether you agree or disagree doesn’t matter. I have not yet added to my position, but I am looking for an entry point that offers a good risk-reward ratio to increase my holdings to a full-sized position. Note
