When's the last time anyone has looked at cruise lines? I remember back in 2020 cruise lines were the "value trade". It worked for a while after the pandemic drop... the price of these stocks recovered. NYSE:NCLH did a recovery back to the 50% Retracement Resistance of the drop itself... but could not quite get its head back above water. Yet another in a...
I have been watching SPY and /ES pull back from February's malaise, following January's rally, and it has now gotten to the key 50% Retracement Level of the October - January trend. My spike indicator also triggered on this morning's opening 30 minute bar. This sets up a textbook long trade in the SPY itself.
The month of January saw a huge RIP on Tesla NASDAQ:TSLA lifted by broad stock market bullishness and Artificial Intelligence buzz with the launch of ChatGPT (Tesla is widely considered an AI company rather than just a car company). February saw this bull trend stall at major Weekly 50% Retracement Resistance (see below) at 213. Price has tested and respected...
Centene NYSE:CNC fired off a signal on this morning's open at a "50 in 50" level. The most important level is the COVID Low to All Time High 50% Retracement which for the last few weeks price has been testing. This is an important multi-year level that the stock price needs to hold to continue to retest the all time high. To reduce the initial risk on this...
I have been stalking NASDAQ:AMZN share prices for months now watching as it retraced from the All Time High down to a full 50% Retracement from the All Time Low. This is a pretty epic pullback level that took decades to create. The 6 month downtrend from 146 > 81 created its own 50% Retracement at 114 as Resistance. February earnings popped to this level and...
This morning, the first trading day of 2023, I ran my S&P 500 spike scan like every morning. The spikes were skewed heavily to the bearish side with 99 Bearish Spikes and only 1 Bullish Spike. That spike was HSIC NASDAQ:HSIC . I like the context of this price action happening at the 50% Retracement of the bear move from the All Time High down to the October...
BITSTAMP:ETHUSD fired off a spike signal on the 2 Hour timeframe (see below for trading timeframe). The context is that price is now back at the pre-FTX collapse high of November 5th, 2022. This is a key resistance and a price volatility spike at this level is significant and worth playing a short pullback from the January 2023 trend.
I carved out a win today on NYSE:PSA to start a trend off the Weekly 50% Level. This has a chance to run based on the technical setup as well as a possible secular bull trend if one believes people will need to store their stuff into a housing crunch. The initial trade began on a 30 minute timeframe spike (which unfortunately was not caught on Tradingview...
I sold off some of my long term LMT holdings last week before EOY to capture some capital gains. LMT was a big winner of 2022 up over 37% and price was stalling at the All Time High. This morning I received an alert for an opening price spike that created a critical low at 469.35. This is not a spike I would take as a reversal to go long. Rather, I am watching...
The price action of 2022 has been dominated by inflation related news. The start of the recent rally began with the October CPI print where an expected 8.3% came in at an actual 8.2%. This was a slight change but the first sign that inflation may have peaked and thus the Fed might pivot from their interest rate hikes. The market has loathed higher interest...
This morning's 10am scan yielded bullish price action spikes on both AMD and INTC. I like the level that Intel NASDAQ:INTC is holding to for a swing trade. The first target will be a retest of this week's high. In the longer term after a very long bearish trend the chip makers have begun to turn. It is somewhat "late" in the turn from October but there are...
NYSE:UPS Triggered a spike alert this morning which is happening at the 50% Retracement of the Post Earnings Rally. (see below for Daily higher timeframe context) These are the real "earnings plays" that can yield positive returns rather than trying to buy a guess on the day before. Trying to buy or sell the day before earnings is a guess but very often...
For certain stocks I have Spike alerts setup on multiple timeframes to find opportunity. Today a Spike Alert triggered on the 2 Hour Swing Timeframe for NYSE:JPM . Where this spike in the opening morning price is occurring is at the 50% Pullback to the post Earnings rally. I was able to put on a position at the 50% proper this afternoon. This sets up a very...
Notable figures such as Michael Burry and Puru Saxena have taken opposing sides on what this rally means. I enjoy how Burry made a very hedged statement... noting that at 23% it was within average but did not imply the Nasdaq's rise itself predicted the future. Puru took a more affirmative view that this was more than a bear market rally. Today's intraday...
The asset has now gained great bullish momentum on the load zone. The volume kept over the average amount since the violation of its midterm resistance labeled as R1. For BTC condition and its effect on the shitcoins check out BTC roadmap below...
Fedex NYSE:FDX is the latest stock on my radar to do a 50% Retracement from the COVID low to All Time High at 204.30. This morning there was a price volatility spike on the 30 minute timeframe (see below) to trigger attention to the setup. I am going to give it a wide berth to play the weekly level but start the position on today's down day.
Bank of America stock NYSE:BAC had a swing trading Spike on earnings today (see below). The spike on earnings is a catalyst I like to look for as a potential risk defined long BUT it is occuring within price action at no clear prior support level. The broad COVID > High 50% Retracement is down at 34. It will still be worth watching today's Daily close to see...
The asset has now arrived at a great load zone and can make a massive breakout. The recent Volume since the violation of R1 has been extremely bullish.
