LRCX trade ideas
LRCX: Only Way to go is UpOn EVERY analysis I've done Lam Research is only going to go up. 2019 is going to end up being a great year for Lam. The only way it will drop past my support is if something truly catastrophic occurs (which I doubt). A supplement to this gain is the fact that Taiwan Semiconductor (NYSE: TSM) has signaled vastly improved smartphone strength. Overall, watch the semiconductor industry. It will be a good payout in the future.

LRCX: Dark Pool & Professional Trader Patterns Ahead of EarningsLRCX has an important technical pattern. The stock chart is technically precise. Lines drawn on a weekly chart match perfectly to daily support levels. This is not always the case. The technical precision of certain areas of this chart shows where the professionals have entered and exited. The ability to see the footprints of Dark Pools and Professional Traders is what I have termed Spatial Pattern Recognition Skills for Traders™. This technical analysis skill makes a huge difference in your end-of-year profitability from trading stocks whether you day, swing, position, momentum or intermediate-term trade.
LRCX to test long term trend from 2012 or break out from here?Lam Research is a value investment. I've priced it with long term growth taken into account to be a bargain buy around $190. That said, this equity is on sale. We could be on our way to test the long term trend from 2012 though around 105...which would be insanely cheap. If we break out of this current short term down trend, I will look to take this long. Macro economics gives me pause though. We are on the tail end of an economic cycle. Stay tuned and keep an eye on this one.
$LRCX poping on earningsLRCX
$LRCX gapping up on earnings beat. I think this may pop at open back to the 188-189 area before pulling back to fill the gap down possibly to the 181ish area. After the fill down I would go long and play this back to the upside for a nice move back towards highs. Should make for a good swing if you want to hold it. Just give it room to come down before making it move back to highs.
