HDD trade ideas
RectangleRectangle support line penetrated but HD is back inside..
A bearish narrowing Rising wedge has possibly caused a deep pull back.
Lowes is still inside the rising wedge and has not broken the bottom trendline..yet. HD has broken the bottom trendline so the RW pattern is valid.
Rising wedges are most often bearish, although price can break up and out of a RW. CRM did for quite a while. The break to the upside is often not a healthy one though.
A Rectangle is a continuation pattern that forms as a trading range during a pause in the trend. The pattern is easily identifiable by two comparable highs and two comparable lows. The highs and lows can be connected to form two parallel lines that make up the top and bottom of a rectangle. Rectangles are sometimes referred to as trading ranges, consolidation zones or congestion areas. It can also be called a horizontal trading channel. HD is in a long term uptrend and has dropped to 258.73 on it's brief dip out of the channel. NV is high
Price can form patterns inside the rectangle. It almost looks like an ABC bullish pattern is trying to form. I am watching.
HD may continue to trade inside this pattern, but often MR/mid rectangle is used as a stop if it breaks to the upside or to the downside. Price is under MR today
HD Long Short Term EntryLooking for a bounce back to the upside on HD this week or a drop to the 200 MA. In my thinking, there are two entry points here depending on price action. Reversal today or this week and buy around $265 with reducing or selling position at $287. Stop-loss around $260.75. If the drop continues then looking at a slower accumulation of a short-term position between $255 and $248 to be more cautious on entry point and average in, this would be in the 200 MA range and to me seems like a bit of a long shot. Both entries would reduce around $287 on the upside.
I also think either of these buy points would be a good place for adding to a long term position.
A long entry for me would be adding to an existing long-term long position with the intention of reducing back to similar levels of holdings.
3 month H&S completed in home depot; expect a sharp move in decYou can watch this in conjunction with my Lowe's trade posted below. Essentially they're a play on the same industry and overall market crash in dec; (they're price is strongly correlated to the general market). Choose whichever one works better for your risk management.
Like always, thanks for the constructive feedback
