Now our part :)
Last week it broke the Down trade to UP and then Re-test the break level. Everything works as expected. I am expecting this trend to continue.
If it breaks the 92.30 - 92.50 and stay above this level then it will confirm the Break Up and these levels would be a good level to get ALB.
Other possibility is re-test the 83.30 - 83.50 again then go Up , if it would do this then these levels also could be another good levels to get , and for me it is much better level.
My personal thinking is quite Positive for ALB. Their sector is being demanded because of the Electrical Autos and i see the good opportunity on it.
My First Target is between 113 to 118 which is approx %30 - %35 above from today's price level.
I have already added ALB to my watch list for next week.
This is just my thinking and it is not invesment suggestion , please do not make any decision with my anaylsis.
Have a lovely Sunday to all.

ALB Technical Outlook – Symmetrical Triangle at Key Inflection⚡ ALB Technical Outlook – Symmetrical Triangle at Key Inflection
Ticker: ALB (Albemarle Corp.)
Timeframe: 30-minute candles
🔍 Current Setup
ALB has been in a long-term uptrend, holding an ascending support trendline since late June. After peaking near ~87, price has pulled back and is now consolidating within a symmetrical triangle.
Descending resistance: ~84–85.
Ascending support: ~76–77.
Current price: ~81.40, sitting inside the triangle and nearing the apex.
This structure reflects compression — energy building for a decisive breakout.
📊 Breakout Levels
🚀 Upside (Bullish Scenario)
Trigger: Break and close above 85.
Intermediate Targets:
87–88 → Prior swing high.
90+ → Psychological round number.
Measured Move Target: ~92–94 (triangle height projection).
🔻 Downside (Bearish Scenario)
Trigger: Break below 77, confirmation under 76.
Intermediate Supports:
74–73 → First demand zone.
70–68 → Stronger support.
Measured Move Target: ~67 (triangle height projection downward).
📈 Volume Analysis
Volume has been declining during the triangle formation — normal for consolidation.
Expect a sharp volume expansion once price escapes the triangle.
⚖️ Probability Bias
The broader trend has been upward, which slightly favors a bullish continuation if resistance at 85 is cleared.
However, a failure below 76–77 would invalidate the bullish structure and trigger a breakdown.
✅ Takeaway
ALB is at a critical decision point within a symmetrical triangle:
Bullish Break > 85: Targets 88 → 90 → 92–94
Bearish Break < 76–77: Targets 74 → 70 → 67
The breakout direction — confirmed by volume — will likely define ALB’s next major move.

Correction over? Worth keeping an eye on itIs this the end of the final 5th wave? It’s hard to tell. This stock has been a disaster for those trying to pick bottoms. I’m waiting for a sign of strength before jumping in. We may be seeing that as the RSI is slowly gaining strength.
Personally I’d like to see it change market structure and take out some resistance levels to the upside.
Keeping an eye on this before I pull the trigger.
ALB | Price PredictionNYSE:ALB is one of my key assets in the stock portfolio. I believe that the price of this stock is highly related to the resource price and cycles. I expect massive upside because of the potential rise in lithium demand. Moreover, new EVs, robots, drones, and next-gen gadgets all need lithium.
Price Prediction is based on my platform, so I'm sharing it here. I believe that the key levels are "Base" and "Bullish".
$Albemarle Harmonic Pattern and Short stock infoLooking at the daily chart for Albemarle, it appears to be to have a short sale harmonic pattern. The second pattern finished up today's trading with dramatic fashion. I'm looking for the same rebound to the $110 area in the next few weeks.
First go at publishing an idea!
$ALB suggesting potential undervaluation.Albemarle Corporation (NYSE: ALB) is a leading global producer of lithium, a critical component in electric vehicle (EV) batteries. The company's performance is closely tied to lithium market dynamics, which have experienced significant fluctuations recently.
Technical Analysis:
As of February 15, 2025, ALB's stock price stands at $81.21. The stock has faced a downward trend, with a 52-week price change of -30.95%. The 50-day moving average is $93.35, and the 200-day moving average is $98.91, indicating a bearish trend. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is at 30.29, suggesting the stock is approaching oversold territory.
STOCKANALYSIS.COM
Resistance levels are identified at $111.30, with support around $85.23.
Fundamental Analysis:
Albemarle's recent financial performance reflects challenges in the lithium market. In Q4 2024, the company reported a profit of $33.6 million, a significant turnaround from a loss of $617.7 million in the same period the previous year. However, adjusted results showed a loss of $1.09 per share, missing analyst expectations of a $0.70 loss. This underperformance is largely due to a substantial drop in lithium prices, leading to a $1.1 billion revenue decline in the Energy Storage division.
In response to market conditions, Albemarle has implemented cost-cutting measures, including workforce reductions and the suspension of expansion projects, such as a key U.S. lithium refinery. Capital expenditures for 2025 are projected to be $700-$800 million, approximately half of the previous year's budget.
Analysts have adjusted their outlooks accordingly. UBS Group recently lowered its price target for ALB from $99.00 to $86.00, maintaining a 'Neutral' rating.
Despite these challenges, the intrinsic value of ALB stock is estimated at $173.10 under a base case scenario, suggesting potential undervaluation.
Investment Considerations:
Given the provided trading parameters:
Target Price: $92.75
Profit Potential: 14.2%
Stop/Trailing Stop: $77.14
Potential Loss: 5%
Profit/Loss Ratio: 2.8:1
These parameters indicate a favorable risk-reward ratio. However, investors should remain cautious due to the volatile lithium market and Albemarle's recent financial adjustments. Monitoring lithium price trends and Albemarle's strategic responses will be crucial in assessing the viability of this investment.
Brace for Impact? Critical support line being heldCould this be the final leg down, Wave 5 capitulation? I'm watching this closely, the only think holding is up now is a long term trendline. The chart is very nice, a massive 5 wave supercycle which has peaked. We have been in a long bear market and there is no clear catalyst to suggest that a recovery is on the horizon.
Lithium prices have tanked and ALB is sitting on a lot of supply due to overproduction. The Chinese demand for lithium is strong but North America and Europe remain weak.
If we fall out of this wedge pattern and lose the current price, we could easily tumble down to $71 to retest support. If we do get down to that level I expect capitulation down to $63 which is the NPOC.
Keeping an eye on this, i'm not shorting but also not buying.

Robert Shiller Would Be ProudAlbemarle has finally started to show some signs of life over the last few months - up over 50% since August, when its CAPE ratio was at its lowest level since the Global Financial Crisis.
The last three times the Shiller PE was this low, the stock saw returns of not percentages, but multiples over the next few years.
