GOOGLE with a bullish secret mountainI mean, let's be honest, everyone knows this pattern so I probably don't need to over-explain.
But basically, GOOGLE is quite bullish to 142.
The RSI on the bigger charts still have room to climb, and the smaller charts are all pretty high. The thing to notice is the rejection off a resistance trend, with a high short term RSI and a longer term RSI that is pumping. The high short term, at the rejection area implies that a drop would be soon to follow. That drop is starting to line up right with some pretty solid short term trend support. If the short term trend support holds up, we can keep pumping until we hit the next resistance trend, which would probably coincide with a cool down.
There are a few different paths that google could get up to the mid 140's, and the orange mountain drawing is one of them, and the one that provides a more natural growth in the short term with a healthier cool down. However, we could potentially see a more explosive move off the trend which might look more like this (pink)
On a trend break, depending on where this occurs, we could see some major downside (or some not so major downside depending on your position) with a nice little bounce back. Which might look more like this.
followed by a bounce somewhere (idk where) this is just a really really rough trading plan just incase we see a trend break and a drop. Lines are not accurate in terms of price and time frame.
If we drop to the secret base, maybe just under 126, expect a missile launch. Missile launch could be a dud and might not make it back past 133.

$GOOG Dreaded Double TopHere we are looking at NASDAQ:GOOG for long term market direction
We can see on the large time frame we are developing a double top scenario within a rising wedge.
With the higher time frames coming into focus as the dominant chart, we are likely to see Google fall over the coming weeks to close gaps at or very near to 143 and again at 112.
If you inspect the Daily CCI you will see we are breaking negatively to the downside below the zero line and implying a pick up in speed Coming Soon ™ on an impending pullback.
If the Daily CCI holds here we could see support forming for a leg Higher.
GOOG “Google” signaling Bearish Divergence before earnings!!!!This is a crucial week for the tech industry with the Mag 7 approaching earnings, and GOOG “Google” particularly has earnings Thursday After-Hours. We’ve been displaying Bearish divergence since January, and currently forming a Head & Shoulders pattern……given the current market sentiment I believe we could see a nice pull back from Google before continuing to the upside. Long-term I’m definitely bullish on GOOG, however short term I believe we’re due for a pullback!

Google Set to Scrap Minimum Wage Stock Drop 1%Alphabet Inc.'s Google ( NASDAQ:GOOG ) has announced its decision to reverse the policy requiring its US-based suppliers and staffing firms to provide their employees with at least $15 per hour as well as health insurance and other benefits. The move allows the tech giant to avoid bargaining with unions and comply with evolving US and global labor regulations concerning contingent workers. This change, along with measures such as restricting access to internal systems for temporary workers and vendors, aims to clarify that Google is not and never has been the employer of the employees of its suppliers.
According to a Google spokesperson, these updates bring Google in line with other significant companies. This announcement follows a recent ruling by the US National Labor Relations Board that recognized Google as a 'joint employer' of workers supplied by Cognizant Technology Solutions, requiring the tech giant to negotiate with their union. Google is currently appealing the decision. The 2019 policy was used by the board as evidence that Google exercised control over workers, despite not employing them directly.
The labor board has made it more challenging for companies to avoid bargaining with temporary and contract workers. In 2020, it adopted a rule that considers companies to be the employers of contract workers if they have indirect control over working conditions. A federal judge blocked the rule from taking effect in March.
The spokesperson stated that Google ( NASDAQ:GOOG ) would continue enforcing its supplier code of conduct, which requires staffing firms and vendors to provide safe working conditions and fulfill current legal obligations. The majority of the company's suppliers operate in states that mandate a minimum wage of at least $15.

Alphabet Inc.'s Google Has Terminated 28 EmployeesAlphabet Inc.'s Google ( NASDAQ:GOOG ) has terminated 28 employees for their involvement in protests against Project Nimbus, a joint $1.2 billion agreement with Amazon.com Inc. to provide AI and cloud services to the Israeli government and military. The protests, organized by the No Tech for Apartheid campaign, took place on Tuesday across Google offices in New York City, Seattle, and Sunnyvale, California. Protesters in New York and California staged a nearly 10-hour sit-in, with others documenting the action through a Twitch livestream. Nine protesters were arrested on trespassing charges.
Several workers involved in the protests, including those not directly engaged in the sit-in, received a message from the company's Employee Relations group informing them that they had been put on leave. Google told the affected employees that it's "keeping this matter as confidential as possible, only disclosing information on a need-to-know basis" in an email seen by Bloomberg. On Wednesday evening, the workers were informed that they were being dismissed by the company, according to a statement from Google staff with the No Tech for Apartheid campaign.
Google's statement regarding the protesters stated, "Physically impeding other employees' work and preventing them from accessing our facilities is a clear violation of our policies, and completely unacceptable behavior. After refusing multiple requests to leave the premises, law enforcement was engaged to remove them to ensure office safety. We have so far concluded individual investigations that resulted in the termination of employment for 28 employees, and will continue to investigate and take action as needed."
The protest took place a day before the Israeli government approved its five-year strategic plan to transition to the cloud under Project Nimbus and expand digital services. Israel's Defense Ministry and military were listed in a government statement as partners in Project Nimbus, along with other government offices. A representative for Google said that the Nimbus contract is "not directed at highly sensitive, classified, or military workloads relevant to weapons or intelligence services."
Google ( NASDAQ:GOOG ) has long favored a culture of open debate, but employee activism in recent years has tested that commitment. Workers who organized a 2018 walkout over the company's handling of sexual assault allegations claimed that Google punished them for their activism. Four other workers alleged they were fired for organizing opposition to Google's work with federal Customs and Border Protection and for other workplace advocacy.
US labor law gives employees the right to engage in collective action related to working conditions. Tech workers will likely argue that this should grant them the ability to band together to object to how the tools they create are used, said John Logan, a professor of labor at San Francisco State University.
Tech companies like Google ( NASDAQ:GOOG ) have a reputation for having "more egalitarian and very cosmopolitan work cultures, but when they encountered labor activism among their own workers, they actually responded in a sort of quite draconian way," Logan added.
Two Google employees who were involved in the protest in California told Bloomberg that a group of workers gathered on the sixth floor of Google's Sunnyvale bureau, where Cloud Chief Executive Officer Thomas Kurian's office is located, to show support for those who were staging the sit-in. It's unclear how Google identified participants in the protest, as only some had their badges scanned by security personnel, and some of those who were fired were outside Google's offices, according to the employees.
One worker said Google ( NASDAQ:GOOG ) may have framed the move to initially place employees on leave as "confidential" to save face publicly, and argued that the protesters did not violate any company policies. The protesters left the building as soon as they were asked to and did not obstruct or disrupt others at the company, the person said.
Beyond the protest, Google ( NASDAQ:GOOG ) has struggled with how to manage internal debate about the Middle East conflict. After the demonstration, posts on internal Google forums featured a mix of pro-Palestinian and pro-Israeli sentiment, with a number of other workers saying they felt the topic was inappropriate for the workplace, a Google ( NASDAQ:GOOG ) employee said. Moderators locked down some threads on the subject, saying prior discussions had gotten too heated, the employee added.
Despite Google's response, employees demonstrating against Project Nimbus have seen an uptick in support since the sit-in, said one of the fired workers.
GOOGLE Short-term correction is another longterm buy opportunityLast time we looked at Alphabet Inc (Google/ GOOG) almost two months ago (February 27, see chart below) we caught an excellent buy entry and even tough the price dipped some more after, it is approaching our 168.00 Target:
Yesterday's strong bearish 1D candle serves as an early signal that the stock can pull-back to its 1D MA50 (blue trend-line) again on the short-term before resuming the long-term bullish trend. After all this is not unfamiliar to Google's 15-month Channel Up pattern, which had a similar 1D MA50 pull-back on numerous occasions, the shortest of which has been -10.45%.
Due to the fair symmetrical attributes of the Higher Highs as well, we revise our Target and place it even higher at 175.00 (+22.18% projection from the expected Low).

Google Goes is DownBearish divergence in stock trading occurs when the price of an asset forms higher highs while the corresponding indicator, such as the Relative Strength Index (RSI) or Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD), forms lower highs.
This suggests weakening momentum and potential for a downward move in price. The possibility of a move down depends on various factors such as market conditions, volume, and other technical indicators, but it indicates a higher probability of a downward correction or trend reversal.
In trading, all we have is probability and risk management. I’m entering at the re-test of today’s low. Join me.
AI vs. AGI: The Race for Performance, Battling the Cost?Artificial intelligence (AI) has become ubiquitous, transforming industries and powering everything from facial recognition to self-driving cars. However, the dream of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) – machines with human-level intelligence and understanding – remains elusive. Let's delve into the key differences between AI and AGI, particularly regarding their performance and the immense computational cost that hinders AGI development.
AI: The Specialized Powerhouse
Current AI excels in specific tasks. Deep learning algorithms trained on massive datasets can identify objects in images with superhuman accuracy, translate languages with remarkable fluency, or play games at a level surpassing even the most skilled humans. This specialization, however, comes at a cost. AI systems often struggle with tasks outside their narrowly defined domain. For example, an image recognition AI trained on cat pictures may misidentify a dog as a cat due to a lack of broader understanding.
Computationally, AI can be quite efficient. While training complex models requires significant resources, once trained, they can run on relatively inexpensive hardware. This efficiency is crucial for real-world applications where cost is a major factor.
AGI: The Elusive Generalist
AGI represents the holy grail of AI research – a machine that can learn, reason, and adapt to new situations just like a human. Such an intelligence would have applications beyond our wildest dreams, revolutionizing every aspect of society. However, achieving AGI presents a significant challenge.
The human brain, with its intricate network of neurons and complex processes, is a marvel of biological engineering. Replicating this level of intelligence artificially requires immense computational power. Training AGI models on the vast amount of data needed for general knowledge would require massive computing clusters, consuming enormous amounts of energy. This not only raises practical concerns about cost but also environmental ones.
The Road Ahead
The quest for AGI continues, with researchers exploring various avenues. Neuromorphic computing, which attempts to mimic the structure and function of the brain, holds promise for more efficient learning algorithms. Additionally, advancements in hardware, such as specialized AI chips, could help reduce the computational burden.
While the development of true AGI might still be far off, the ongoing research paves the way for more powerful and versatile AI. By optimizing existing algorithms and developing new computational architectures, we can bridge the gap between specialized AI and the dream of a general artificial intelligence. This journey will require innovation not just in AI research but also in sustainable energy solutions to power these future advancements.
1Current AI vs. Non-existent AGI: By definition, there is no true AGI (Artificial General Intelligence) yet. So, in that sense, current AI excels in its specific field because AGI wouldn't have a "field" in the same way.
Specialized AI vs. Hypothetical General AGI: If an AGI ever emerges, it's unlikely to directly compete with specialized AI in their narrow domains. Here's why:
Specialization is Key: Current AI thrives because it's laser-focused on specific tasks. An AGI, with its broader intelligence, might not be as efficient for these tasks.
Different Tools for Different Jobs: Imagine needing to hammer a nail. You wouldn't use a Swiss Army knife (the AGI) when a simple hammer (the specialized AI) is perfect for the job.
Outperform in Unfamiliar Situations: While a specialized AI might struggle with anything outside its training data, an AGI could potentially adapt and learn new tasks more readily.
Revolutionize the Field: An AGI might not directly "beat" a specialized AI, but it could completely redefine how a task is approached, leading to even more powerful AI solutions.
DeepMind, a leading AI research lab owned by Google, is tackling a wide range of ambitious projects. Here are some highlights:
Healthcare: DeepMind Health is applying AI to medical challenges. They've collaborated with hospitals to develop algorithms for analyzing eye scans for early signs of blindness and differentiating healthy from cancerous tissues.
Scientific Discovery: DeepMind's AlphaFold project has made significant strides in protein folding prediction, a critical step in understanding diseases and developing new drugs.
Efficiency and Sustainability: A collaboration with Google AI led to WaveRNN, a method for improving audio call quality, even with dropped packets. Their AlphaFold project itself has the potential to accelerate discoveries in clean energy and materials science.
Gaming and Robotics: DeepMind's AI agents have achieved superhuman performance in complex games like StarCraft II. Their AlphaFold project demonstrates the potential for AI-powered robotics in scientific experimentation and materials creation (Project A-Lab).
AI for the Future: DeepMind's efforts extend beyond specific applications. Their Visualising AI program commissions artists to create thought-provoking pieces that challenge how we perceive AI. Additionally, their recent release of Gemma, a state-of-the-art open model, promotes responsible AI development by making research tools more accessible.
These are just a few examples.
DeepMind is constantly pushing the boundaries of AI research, aiming to use this technology for positive impact across various fields. You can find more details on their latest projects on their website

GOOGL - After every Storm, there is a Rainbow 🌈Hello TradingView Family / Fellow Traders. This is Richard, also known as theSignalyst.
📈 GOOGL has been overall bullish, trading within the rising rainbow wedge pattern.
Currently, GOOGL is in a storm 🌪/ correction phase and it is approaching the lower bound of the wedge acting as a non-horizontal support.
Moreover, it is retesting a strong support zone at $128 marked in blue.
🏹 Thus, the highlighted blue circle is a strong area to look for buy setups as it is the intersection of the blue support and lower rainbow trendline.
📚 As per my trading style:
As #GOOGL is around the blue circle zone, I will be looking for bullish reversal setups (like a double bottom pattern, trendline break , and so on...)
📚 Always follow your trading plan regarding entry, risk management, and trade management.
Good luck!
All Strategies Are Good; If Managed Properly!

GOOGLE into major resistance at $163. A retracement is expected GOOGLE into major resistance at $163. A retracement is expected which could take price to $140.
Mapped out in blue line our expected price movement.
Would you short it at resistance?
Google's Dive: Next Stop Wave 2?
Google is currently experiencing a significant drop, just as expected, with a decline of more than 3%. We should soon be at a point to conclude Wave A of this correction, then move upwards into Wave B, and finally downwards into Wave C. The exact development remains uncertain. Google moves very similarly to Apple, yet they are not in an identical cycle. We don't foresee a possibility of a much deeper fall, perhaps only a retest of the $83.34 level. However, we shouldn't fall much below that. We're anticipating that we are in a Wave (2), which should reach between 50 and 78.6%. This places Google's level between $119 and $99 in this scenario. We will keep you updated on the type of correction—zigzag or flat—we are dealing with. For now, we strongly believe that we will soon see this Wave (2) materialize.
GOOGL upside tgts hit. Bearish energy.I had an old idea from the end of January on GOOGL when I attempted to get an idea of what to expect for earnings with my dowsing work. It wasn't the greatest, but there was some relevance, and now over 2 months later, GOOGL has reached slightly above the original $156-57 target and the energy is now bearish.
I ask what the target is and get the $130 level. I don't like that it perfectly lines up with those prior lows because in my past experience, this can just be pointing out an important low.
So, I ask for a second level and get $137. Possibly $139, so watch around there.
That's all for now.
Practice GOOGL earnings btdMy dowsing chose this one out of the options available on the earnings whisper calendar posted on X, so I had to see what's up. I've avoided earnings for awhile, but it's good practice, so here goes:
Watch for a spike down and reverse up.
Low around 12 pts down = $139ish possibly 138
Time of day to look for the low or reversal up: 12:50-1:00
I've experimented with times quite a bit with /ES and it's mostly good, but most often reflects the time before an actual directional move and can be a higher low/lower high kind of idea. So don't expect it to necessarily be the dead lows, and sometimes it's just plain wrong. I'm interested in this though since my pendulum chose this stock out of all the other ones.
I'll update with a target if this seems to be the scenario.
Looking bullish immediately on GOOGL.🔉Sound on!🔉
