AMAT trade ideas
AMAT bounce?Looks like price bounced off the lower trend line. Earnings is coming up, but they've beat 4 out of 4. EPS keeps increasing each quarter.
I'm in if the price rises to $130.59. Good potential to raise the target. I'm probably being too conservative.
Weekly PUTS for Aug 20th are nice:
$120 bid of $0.61. -0.03 delta
$124 bid of $1.26
Earnings on the 19th.
AMAT strange patternAMAT has had these ridiculous sell offs multiple times only to make a new highs 14 days after bottoming out at the trendline. Kinda silly, looking like easy money. Loading the boat with 9/3 call options. I don't know who is pulling the strings of the market but it looks like a damn bot. AMAT new all time high September 1st.
Will AMAT break the terminal pattern extending from March?AMAT is in a coiling pattern that extends from March 2021 and may be looking to break out now.
Fundamentally:
* AMATs sales growth quarter-over-quarter has been more than 30%
* Its EPS is expected to grow over the coming year
Technically:
* AMAT is in a pennant pattern indicated by the white trend lines
* Recently broke back above a resistance of $135.34 which should now serve as support
* Is approaching a confluence of resistance at $142.12
Trade idea:
* AMAT is approaching a confluence of resistance around the $142.10 area
* Expect selling pressure around there
* Expect the $135.30 area to serve as support
* Look for buying opportunities around the $135.30 area
OR
* Wait for a daily break and close above $142 as a confirmation
Notes:
* A break and close below $135 would make $130 the next support level and a break below that could send the price to the bottom of the pattern
* A break above $142 can be expected in the coming week
* However, this may continue coiling using 135.34 as support and the white trend line as resistance until earnings

Comments...
Large call option came in for AMAT and decided to check out the technicals.
This buyer decided to place a massive bet on this stock rising higher buying way out of the money calls. The technicals show this may be a good time to purchase this price because we are coming into heavy support but it seems unlikely we would reach the price by expiration.
