Last week, Rosenblatt initiated coverage of AAOI at Sell amid worries of price wars and declining margins. Even with demand up for fiberoptics in China and the United States, price competition should heat up in 100G and 400G module markets, which may make AAOI's 40%-range gross margin unsustainable.

Forming a 'double top' in the last two months. If the resisitant is broken, the downward room is huge.

This might not be a bad short setup - I'm personally taking no position, but potential certainly seems to be there for a failed breakout.

Feels like a possible setup for a two-weekish swing trade. The stock hasn't broken the trendline yet and is still trending long with decent volume. Two possible entry points: the bounce off the trendline retest or near support @ around $40.50. Profit Target: $49 Stop Loss (Trendline Retest) $41.90 Stop Lost (Trendline Break) $39.90

Shakeout....look at gap down close level...support

Clean breakout with great volume almost 2 times it average.

80% SHORT FLOAT SHOULD PROVIDE JUICE FOR A MOVE HIGHER ON A CLOSE OVER 44ISH. EYEING JULY 20 45 AND 47 CALLS AROUND $2 AND $1.4 RESPECTIVELY. WILL UPDATE IF SETS UP AND WE CAN CATCH IT

Nice looking flag under construction on this 15 minute chart.

Trend reversal is seen. Good buy opportunity

Bull Flag play back on. waiting for b/o

Should sell off and find short-term bottom at these levels and decide where to go afterwards.

Looks like a gap fill candidate if this bull flag works out

Retracing to the 52? Watching it.

Looking for this to either push through 46.90 or back test the .618 at around 39.57. A push past 46.90 brings 50, 52.77 and 61.56+

$AAOI Possible inverse H&S pattern forming. 50d EMA trending upward. Volume picking up. Watch for strong break through 35.00 level in the near term. Targeting mid-40s in the medium term. Breaching the 200d ema on the daily and 37.50 resistance will be key.

.

$AAOI C&H pattern developing. Monitoring for a possible short squeeze coming. 1st target $37.82 near 200d ema. Note: very high short interest 75-80%.
