BB set up for a move higher pre-earnings LONGBB on the 15 minute chart has earnings in three weeks. Price has been meandering sideways
for two weeks after some significant volatility in mid-May. I believe it is now due for a change
of phase/cycle as the earnings approach. I will place a long trade here targeting initially 3.10
just below a significant level to the left being the consolidations before and after the
volatility of mid-May. These is the likely level where traders will again make trades in BB.
The upcoming earnings should add some extra volatility into the price action which could
translate into profit.

AVGO, Split coming? On it's way to 1550?The chart for Broadcom Inc. (AVGO) on the NASDAQ shows a bullish breakout from a falling wedge pattern, indicating a potential upward price movement.
After the breakout, the price has consolidated around the $1,406.64 level, suggesting a healthy pause before the next move.
The RSI at 57.48 indicates neutral to slightly bullish momentum, and increased volume during the breakout adds credibility to this move.
The projected path suggests the price will consolidate around $1,407.78 before breaking out to $1,419.17 and potentially reaching $1,438.35 and $1,445.40. Considering these factors, entering a long position if the price breaks above $1,419.17
with strong volume could be beneficial, with a stop loss below $1,391.91 to manage risk and targets at $1,438.35 and $1,445.40.
This could easily tun to 1550 with a 10% implied move on earnings.

SG post-trade ReviewSG was a textbook continuation setup that we took last week. SG had a massive reaction to earnings in early May and had been flagging ever since. Our premium indicator printed a blue continuation bar and then the next day printed a continuation arrow. This combination of technicals with SGs relative strength compared to the rest of the market gave us the confidence to execute.
Adobe, a beast hiding in plain sight! Adobe Inc. (ADBE) on the 1-hour chart illustrates a recent decline from a swing high, followed by a recovery forming a harmonic pattern labeled with points A, B, C, D, and E.
Key Fibonacci retracement levels are highlighted, including the 0.618 level at 455.67 and the 0.5 level at 451.53, along with Fibonacci extension levels at 1 (469.07) and 1.23 (477.14).
The chart features a Volume Weighted Average Price (VWAP) line from the previous month's swing high, which may act as a dynamic resistance around the 469.07 level.
Volume analysis reveals lower recent activity compared to previous spikes, indicating a possible consolidation phase.
The RSI (Relative Strength Index) currently reads around 53.78, suggesting neutral to slightly bullish momentum. Key support levels are identified at 433.97, with resistance levels at 469.07 and 477.14.
The harmonic pattern suggests a potential bullish scenario if the price moves beyond 469.07 towards 477.14, while the downside risk includes a possible drop to support levels at 455.67 or 451.53 if the price fails to sustain current levels.
Can SNAP slo-mo bounce from an earnings fall? LONGSNAP had a mild top and bottom line beat with last week's earnings and
the price fall. Given SNAP's mediocre social media interface, I think the
earnings were decent but I suppose most traders felt otherwise looking
for more. Technically on the 1H chart, price is sitting at support at the
bottom of the fair value zone. PVT and the Gaussian Awesome Oscillator
are flat line trendlines. Reversion to the mean says SNAP will rise from
current market price. I will go long. If price can rise and get to 11.5,
the volume profile's volume void suggests it could easily cross over the
mean VWAP into the 12.5 range for another leg higher. If you want my
ideas of targets and a stop loss, please comment.
$GOOGL still one leg higher? $200+?Judging off of sentiment, I think most people believe that Google will miss earnings.
Based off the chart, I think there's still one leg higher that likely starts on a reaction to earnings.
I think what's likely is we get a retest of support tomorrow and a low into earnings, and then we see a positive reaction after earnings that starts the next leg higher up to $200+.
Top targets are $214-234.
Let's see what happens.
INO Inovio Pharmaceuticals Options Ahead of EarningsAnalyzing the options chain and the chart patterns of INO Inovio Pharmaceuticals prior to the earnings report this week,
I would consider purchasing the 13usd strike price Calls with
an expiration date of 2024-5-17,
for a premium of approximately $0.25.
If these options prove to be profitable prior to the earnings release, I would sell at least half of them.
RIOT Platforms Options Ahead of EarningsAnalyzing the options chain and the chart patterns of RIOT Platforms prior to the earnings report this week,
I would consider purchasing the 15usd strike price Calls with
an expiration date of 2025-1-17,
for a premium of approximately $2.98.
If these options prove to be profitable prior to the earnings release, I would sell at least half of them.
ROKU trade for upcoming earnings LONGROKU is here on a 15 minute chart. An anchored VWAP breakout from the lowermost bands
three days prior to earnings suggests to me a long trade through the earnings. The target
is on the chart as the recent high pivots and mean VWAP line. This is a swing trade of about
4-5 days expectant for a 6% gain and perhaps more with a call option trade to supplement
the shares.
CMG will likely retrace SHORTCMG catapulted after the best earnings beat with an excessive and overextending move to the
upper bounds of the widening wedge pattern and beyond the third upper VWAP band on
this 30 minute chart. It did have a corresponding leap in volume. However, I expect a
retracement into the 3020 level based on the Fibonacci tool. This is about a 5-6% downside.
I will take a short trade here targeting that Fib level. and perhaps more.
MSFT Microsoft Corporation Options Ahead of EarningsIf you haven`t entered MSFT when they bought 49% of OpenAI:
nor on the comparison to AMZN and GOOGL:
Then analyzing the options chain and the chart patterns of MSFT Microsoft Corporation prior to the earnings report this week,
I would consider purchasing the 410usd strike price Calls with
an expiration date of 2024-6-21,
for a premium of approximately $14.25.
If these options prove to be profitable prior to the earnings release, I would sell at least half of them.
PG slow and steady long term winner with earnings coming LONGPG on the weekly chart gained 15% in a year and had a dip in the past two weeks with earnings
at the end of this week. PG persistently and consistently beats earnings estimates and pays a
dividend. Moreover, it consistently has a bit of a surge after earnings. I see this as an
opportunity to get a good stock on a 4% dip of a discount and hold it through earnings for
perhaps a 10% profit in two weeks while also picking up the quarterly dividend. Some traders
including those institutionally based believe that buying near to the middle line of the Bollinger
Bands is a good entry for getting fair value. I am one of them.
MS - Updated Analysis before earnings. Super healthy chartLove what i'm seeing here on Morgan Stanley pre=earnings next Tuesday. I want to see us continue to build liquidity in this very controlled orange selling channel where we can then find yellow to activate and bring us further up for a breakout of orange and beyond. My price target for the next few weeks is in the $99-104 range, earnings dependent.
Obviously, as with any industry, if banks that are announcing earnings on Friday announce positive results, you can expect the rest of the industry to follow. This, in addition to the extremely healthy chart movements, has me very bullish on MS and interested in watching this stock closely.
Happy Trading :)

AVTX - a potential continuation WATCHAVTX popped on a big revenue beat on March 28th. It is now priced at about 3% of the ATH
of last July. With the massive price jump came a 15X relative volume. The question is
whether price has retraced into support and can rally again in the next market session.
This remains to be seen. i will put AVTX on the top of my watch list and take a long trade
if I see signs of continuation with volume supporting the move.
CLSK a crypto miner reports February 8th LONGCLSK is tied to the ebbs and tides of the crypto market especially high market cap Bitcoin.
On the 120-minute chart, it is trending up from a reversal. The 0.5 Fib level is above at 10.0
about 10% upside from the current price. Earnings are February 8th. The last earnings saw a big
turnaround as CLSK started to make money. Price is currently about 90% below all-time highs.
The recent surge in Bitcoin albeit with a partial pullback afterward has likely benefited
CleanSpark. I see this as a short-term swing pre-earnings play that could gain big or
drop with an earnings miss. I will set a stop loss to protect against the latter. Today's price
action and the indicators are reassurance in the risk taken.
WM Waste Management ( Garbage Collector / Recycler ) LONGWM on a 180 minute chart shows a trend up since the October earnings. The January earnings
substantially beat the earnings from the October report and the uptrend accelerated. The chart
shows both VWAP band and volume profile breakouts persisting over 5 months. I have added to
my long-term position in WM with call options for January 2026 striking $200. These have
expensive premiums but I believe there is high value showing on the chart. I have taken partial
significant profits from the $190 calls for January 2025 and am rolling the remaining a year
forward. I will also buy a lot of shares now and hold them for about 4 weeks closing out most
of the position a few days before earnings and hold the remainder through the earnings.
Profits will be used to buy another call option.
MARA fell on a huge earnings beat LONGMARA fell a few days ago while Bitcoin is staging another leg higher along with other coins.
On the 30-minute chart, MARA is in undervalued territory below the mean-anchored VWAP
and near to the bottom of the high volume area on the volume profile but above the POC line.
This seems to be an obvious long trade for me to take. I will set a stop loss of $1.00 below
market price and a target of $31 halfway between the mean VWAP and the first upper VWAP
the line above it. A call option trade striking $30.00 expiring in three months will be
considered. MARA fell from excellent earnings which apparently disappointed some
traders /investors. The discount sale is hard to resist given the current fundamentals in the
crypto markets.
EPIX - Biotech Pre-earnings Run LONGEPIX on the 15-minute chart shows a solid trend up with a set of moving averages as the
guardrails now in a bit of a pullback. The after-hours price action will not appear on the chart
but price jumped 5%. Earnings are anticipated for 2/8 or 2/9 as best as I can tell. Internet
search information is not consistent. So, if tomorrow this is still pre-earnings but price popped
5% overnight, I will take a small long position. If the price is still pulled back to the slowest
moving average, I will take a larger position. No matter I will assess it on a 3-5 minute time
frame and recheck internet information regarding an earnings report. One news catalyst is that
Secretary of Defense has been in and out of the hospital ( DC VAMC) with prostate cancer
and maybe currently getting treatment in a clinical trial of an EPIX drug per the NIH
in Bethesda. Biotech is forecasted to be one of the hottest sectors for 2024. EPIX has
a trend up that impresses me. I will go long on this when I find a best entry and possibly in the
next trading session. The options chain is minimal volume as so represents a liquidity trap.
I will not go there.
Puts ideaEach bounce was weaker than the previous one. And apparently is forming a HS to break down. Earnings on 03/07, I think the market won't save this one. It's a gamble but it is worth the risk.
Is BA Boening ready ?On the daily chart BA had big trend up for November and December but then fell with news
of issues the the Max model which further developed into an FAA inquiry. In the meanwhile
Thailand and India based airlines contracted for more jets and an earnings report beat both
lines especially earnings. It would seem forward earnings are fortified by those new contracts.
The chart shows price currently sitting at the support of the bottom of the high-volume
area of the volume profile and just under the nearby POC line. In confluence, it has been in
consolidation at a Fibonacci level. I consider that BA has been accumulating within a narrow
range and is now well situated for another leg up. The last trend up was about 50% over 2
months. I will take a long trade here anticipating a similar move sometime soon. Targets
are 230 and 250 with call options for August or September also under consideration.
BLUE- a biotechnology earnings penny stock LONGBLUE a week ago had a bull run to gain 90% in 5 days and then reversed into a standard
Fibonacci retracement on the 30-minute chart, then in consolidation for a day or two getting
support from the mean anchored VWAP. The last trading day was a quick rise with momentum
in a bull flag. Earnings are coming. I will take another long trade on BLU into earnings. My
target is 1.90 about the high of the prior trend up and below the second VWAP line above
the mean. A tight stop loss at 1.53 ( below the flag's consolidation) will make it more likely the
trade will be a 20% winner. I have taken call options strikng $1.50 for March 15th for $20 each.
or a small loss of 2-3%
MYO can Myomo continue the push to the earnings report?MYO had impressive week gaining over 35%. It is a volatile penny biotechnology stock
with good earnings back in November new due for another report. On a 120 minute chart
with relative volatility and volume indicators and a volume profile added. The volume and
volativlty of this past week's move is obvious. Price gain has slowed on the approach to the
POC line of the volume profile which appears to be resistance. Price may break that resistance
but could get rejected there. I plan to buy MYO long on a break of resistance with
a buy stop set at 4.04 and a stop loss at 3.96. If MYO rises and gets over 4.04 the order should
fill and if it retests the POC line as support and the support fails, the stop will close the trade.
My expectation however is for the earnings run to take it to the level of the pivot high
in early January for a 25% gain.
