Footlocker ( FL) has been resting from a fall and waiting LONG
www.msn.com [/url ]
FL is here on a 30 -minute chart. It fell badly after good earnings 3 weeks ago and has been
resting in a narrow range for about half of that. A volatility squeeze released and some price
action with corresponding increase in relative volume resulted. FL has about 50% upside to
the price level before the last earnings. i am expecting a trade for 2-3 weeks realizing 50%
profit. The news catalyst cited in the link above of an upside of 25% in an upgrade has put
trader's eyes on this ticker. Mine are as well. It has reminded me to check on Nike.

XNGUSD- Bollinger / TTM Squeeze for Breakout LONGThis 30 minute chart of spot natural gas demostrates the indicators triggering / signaling a big
move as it gets underway. I missed the big move catching the two smaller scalpes earlier in the
day. For me, this demonstrates the value of one or more of these indicators armed with an alert
or notification to catch the move once it gets started. It also shows the value of detecting a
Bollinger band width and volatility contraction before the release. Price action is showing
a high tight flag pattern which could forecast a similar leg higher after sufficient consolidation
to ti reach the consensus equilibrium of buyers and short sellers as to what the price should be.
I will be one of those buyers adding again to my position which I expect to swing trade
at least the rest of this week. For those already with good-sized positions, some may elect
to sell some to take a partial profit. I am considering being more watchful of such a situation
also realizing that a short squeeze could get underway since XNGUSD as been falling for
sometime. Long-time shorts might decide this is the exit point to avoid further loss of
unrealized profits. If they do so they play into the hand of new buyers and those holding.
Buckle up, this could get interesting.
DDOG shows bullish momentum 3 weeks before earnings LONGDDOG on a 120 minute chart is breaking above narrow Bollinger Bands as they begin to
release the squeeze. The relative volailitiy indicator shows red to green and increasing
volatility. The price volume indicators show the bullish trend while the TTM squeeze
just signaled green. I will tkae a long trade here focused on the price action leading to the
earnings report due May 3rd.
TXN rising and at fair value LONGTXN is on a 240 minute chart. It is a grinder from the 70s. I was there and a proud owner of
a TI programmable calculator costing $500 as a teenager. New cars cost $5000 for a nice VW
Bug ( got them nearly the same time). TXN has a role to play in semi-conductor and AI space.
It has been lagging others. The chart makes me believe that it is waking up. Buying after
a TTM squeeze at the mean of the anchored VWAP or the middle line of the bands is a way
to lower risk and get fair value. TXN was there for me back in the day. I am taking a long
trade now. It's time to get a full rebate ( or more with badly inflated dollars). TXN has retested
that mean VWAP line. It's good to go.
LUV and Attendants love the Settlement LONGLUV on a 120 minute chart fell heavily on news of a looming strike by flight attendants 18 %
into a bear flag and support followed by a narrow range consolidation and a volatility
squeeze which broke on news of the settlement. I LUV Sowthwest and its travel mileage perks
and open seating. The NR7 indicator on watch was firing continuously. I am taking a long trade
here and now with adds at any dips found moving foward. It is hard to pass by an 18% sale.
This will be profitable and will subsidize travel on LUV.
ABT has good news synchronously with price action dip LONG
ABT on the one-hour chart is in a sideways diverging channel with Bollinger Bands overlaid
and now compressing. In Europe, the new implantable cardiac monitor has tentative approval
producing a growth narrative. Relative volumes and volatility have decreased heading into the
pivot. ABT is in what is projected to be one of the hottest sectors this year. It pays dividends
consistently. I am taking a long trade here. Targets are $120 and $130. A predictive algo
validates the idea in its forecast
EOS Getting Ready to Make a Decision [BEARISH SCENARIO]The Trading-Guru here with an update on EOS. There are three things that stand out on this chart:
1) The bollinger bands squeeze. Indicating local volatility, a squeeze in the BB shows that there is less certainty over the direction of the price and the volatility is dropping rapidly. There is almost no movement anymore in any direction.
2) Decrease in volume. The trading volume has decreased dramatically, showing that people don't know what to expect now on EOS. Everybody holds on to their bags and is getting ready to invest as soon as EOS shows direction.
3) A symmetrical triangle. This continuation pattern shows a constant decrease in volatility, with peaks becoming closer to each other bouncing off the support trendline and the resistance trend line.
The beauty here, is that you don't have to decide yet whether you will take a long or short position. I drew the bearish scenario here with a short position, because for a symmetrical triangle, the pattern defines a continuation pattern. The momentum was negative before the triangle started, so I expect it to be negative after the triangle is completed. I expect explosive volatility as soon as EOS decided its direction, as many people are watching on the sideline right now.
Wait for the move to happen and then quickly enter the trade. If you are afraid that you will miss the breakout, consider becoming a member for a crypto scanner.
