AMAT
LRCX in the same position and price AMAT was this time last yearLRCX following in the foot steps of AMAT to $295? AMAT also repeating the same move it made a year ago right now as well. Both are in the same field both are involved in the production of Ai processors and the tools to make them. I think its ironic that LRCX just happens to be in the same pattern on the same month AMAT started its nose bleed run up.
Option shares right now are expensive for a $74 stock no matter how long or short you look. Somethings going on and the companies in the semiconductor industry know it. Nvidia and AMD prices right now are very inviting which means they had to reduce their prices either by splitting them or something but they must know that a boom is about to happen and they needed to make their prices in line with what is about to happen. I haven't looked at stock options in over a year and I was surprised to see everyones prices had gone up. Yet Semiconductors all seem to be price point. With the materials side looking Bullish as hell. I am just saying keep your eyes open on this because its about to happen all over the place.....a shift a huge shift.

AMAT Applied Materials Options Ahead of EarningsAnalyzing the options chain and the chart patterns of AMAT Applied Materials prior to the earnings report this week,
I would consider purchasing the 195usd strike price Calls with
an expiration date of 2024-9-20,
for a premium of approximately $15.05.
If these options prove to be profitable prior to the earnings release, I would sell at least half of them.
Semiconductor Bull Run: Is it OVER?AMD is experiencing a breakout from the falling wedge pattern, which is a bullish signal. Currently, the stock is above its immediate support zone and ended the last trading session with a bullish harami candle.
Although sell pressure seems unlikely given the current levels, keep an eye on the medium-term support zone to reassess your trading strategy if needed.
These levels are suitable for options trading and could result in excellent swing trades based on liquidity analysis.
The price target is between $185 and $190, with the potential to reach $200 if the bullish momentum continues.
Let's monitor how this develops.

AMAT possible BUY opportunityAfter successful GOOG and CRM buy, my eyes are on AMAT stock- Applied Materials INC. Company operating in Technology sector. Stock price is currently consolidating in a $110.16 to $125.65 price range, forming a valid price Box. Box in price stock has become well known from Nicholas Darvas epic book called "How I made $2.000.000 in the stock market".
Things to consider:
1. This price range is good and the main reason for it is that the price is currently sitting above 200SMA on Daily level, and on Weekly as well.
2. Price is currently trying to break above 50SMA level on Daily, sitting at $116.52. If price manages to break the 50SMA level, I am consider buying couple of shares just to be in the game.
3. The best buy situation for me personally would be the break above price level sitting at $125.6 level and that will be my safe buy zone.
4. Of course, nothing is certain in markets, especially now, so my Stop Loss level will be sitting at $115.8 which is if you look at the chart now just below the 50SMA line on the Daily levels.
5. $125.6 price level is at the moment acting as big resistance level for the price, this is why I will consider the break above that level as safe buy zone.
6. If my order gets triggered I will be looking at $145.36 level as potential add to position/close with profit area. Depending on what the market does, my action will be following the overall market.
Just for everyone's thoughts, this is not financial advice and I am not a financial advisor, please do your Due Diligence before investing your hard earned cash.

SOX Update (daily chart)SOX has been diverging from SPY last couple of days, which is unusual. SOX had 50/200 EMA xover Friday. SOX is extended, could pull back to prior swing high at 2913 (-3.25%) where there is good support. Watch these tech stocks with earnings coming up next 10 days, all daily charts look bullish (except CSCO, which is debatable). All also have positive point & figure price targets (from Stockcharts.com). ADI (2/15), ADSK (2/13), AMAT(2/16), ANET (2/13), CDNS (2/13), CSCO(2/15), KEYS (2/21), NVDA(2/22).
RSI(9) has been trending up since 1/9. As long as daily RSI(9) stays above 50%, trend may continue.
AMAT -ter of Time for this Value Industrial Blue ChipAMAT is a strong company, clean financials, legacy business entrenchment (moat) and plenty of upside potential. However buying today is not favorable risk-reward, wait a few months to see if 2023 gives another ideal buying opportunity
