SHOP
has showed weakness in its consolidation and appears to have distribution of shares taking place. The volatility is evident in its volume and jumpy prices overnight and otherwise. It closed above its weekly value and short 2 weeks before earnings makes sense due to the likely increase in option premiums. While the market Shopify covers has become saturated and profitable, if there is anything less than expected earnings reported a short now could be a nice leg into a longer term position. My two short term targets are on the chart one at the bottom of it's trading range and one right above an area I expect to hold some nice liquidity. My long term target (post earnings) would be closer to the November highs for Shopify.

Swing target was hit twice this week with no drawdown
