ROKU has not performed well over the last few weeks. It has been under heavy selling pressure since its last earnings report. I am considering a long position for 2 reasons. First I believe that the stock has sold off to an area of consolidation that may interest some buyers. It is a zone between 218 and 228 (rather large range). Secondly, and more importantly, the RSI has shown a reading of below 30 for a while. Historically if RSI has been below 20, it has proven to be a good buying opportunity for this stock. I think that a close above the 5ma will be a sign for a reversal of momentum. I think an acceptable target is 240 and then 245 after that.

It broke through the zone so this trade would have stopped out. Today, the trade ripped and blew by the target. Right trade, wrong time.
