BKNG Booking Holdings Options Ahead of EarningsAnalyzing the options chain and the chart patterns of BKNG Booking Holdings prior to the earnings report this week,
I would consider purchasing the 2915usd strike price Calls with
an expiration date of 2023-11-10,
for a premium of approximately $20.95.
If these options prove to be profitable prior to the earnings release, I would sell at least half of them.
Looking forward to read your opinion about it.

Booking Holdings: Southern Vacation? 🌴The price of Booking Holding has been heading south in recent days. It has now come very close to support at $2934. As long as this level is not breached, we believe that the price should continue to rise above the resistance at $3251 with the turquoise wave 5. However, if the support is breached, which we see as 33% probable, the price would still make a lower low of the grey wave alt.(II).
Booking (BKNG) -> Pay Very Close AttentionMy name is Philip, I am a German swing-trader with 4+ years of trading experience and I only trade stocks , crypto , options and indices 🖥️
I only focus on the higher timeframes because this allows me to massively capitalize on the major market swings and cycles without getting caught up in the short term noise.
This is how you build real long term wealth!
In today's anaylsis I want to take a look at the bigger picture on Booking Holdings.
Almost 10 years ago Booking Holdings stock entered a quite decent rising channel and is currently retesting the upper resistance from which I do expect a minor bearish rejection.
I would then look for longs at the $2400 structure zone or the $1900 rising channel support since the overall trend is still quite bullish and I do expect a bullish reversal there.

I know that this is a quite simple trading approach but over the past 4 years I've realized that simplicity and consistency are much more important than any trading strategy.
Keep the long term vision🫡
Booking Holdings: Reservation confirmed 🏨Booking Holdings has booked a room in our dark green target zone between $2939 and $3096 and should reach this destination via wave b in gray. During its stay, the share should establish the distinctive top of the current movement and then leave its dark green lodging on the southern side, heading for the support at $2456. However, there is a 30% chance that wave alt.b in gray could have already checked out and that Booking Holdings could start its journey below $2456 earlier. In that case, the dark green hotel room would remain vacated.
Booking following the general trend. BKNGWe are not in the business of getting every prediction right, no one ever does and that is not the aim of the game. The Fibonacci targets are highlighted in purple with invalidation in red. Confirmation level, where relevant, is a pink dotted, finite line. Fibonacci goals, it is prudent to suggest, are nothing more than mere fractally evident and therefore statistically likely levels that the market will go to. Having said that, the market will always do what it wants and always has a mind of its own. Therefore, none of this is financial advice, so do your own research and rely only on your own analysis. Trading is a true one man sport. Good luck out there and stay safe.
Booking Holdings Inc – 40% Shorting Opportunity Not to Be MissedIf you like this idea, please don’t forget to Boost it.
Fundamental Indicators:
Sector – Consumer Cyclical
US Business Cycle Stage – late cycle, when this sector is not favourable
Revenue – suffered significantly during pandemic period and 2022 TTM is showing revenue just shy of 2019 level, with 9% average annual rate
Profits – profits, however, have not recovered and considerably lower pre-pandemic high, nearly 70% less than in 2019
Net margin – decent 10.5% but considerably less than in 2019 with over 30%
P/E – extremely high with 55 ratio compared to S&P500 with 21 and Consumer Cyclical sector with 23
Liabilities - debt ratio is at 0.84 which is a little over the norm, Net Debt/ EBITDA is negative – no problems with debt
Conclusion – considering that business is still struggling to recover from the pandemic, with considerable drop in earnings, and being grossly overpriced, it is very likely to correct further
Technical Analysis (Elliott Waves):
Main scenario of this idea suggests that we are still observing development of the global growth cycle which is currently at the stage of forming corrective wave 4 (see higher timeframe graph)
From the point of correction during the Great Financial Crisis in 2008 this company has enjoyed explosive growth with nearly 7000% in stock appreciation
Although very rapid, the whole movement is choppy with a lot of crossings, hence likely to be an Ending Diagonal (see guidelines for Ending Diagonals below)
We are currently observing the formation of wave 4 of this Ending Diagonal, where the first leg is forming as ABC zigzag – wave A as an impulse has completed and wave B is shaping as a complex Running Correction which is normally contained within a channel
Once it reaches boundaries of this channel at a circa $2290 level, we can expect a reversal and unravelling of wave C towards the level of circa $1370 – which may present 40% shorting opportunity
This is a higher timeframe to reflect the full history of Booking Holdings Inc and to provide full wave count:

Booking Holdings - Time for Bubble to Burst?Is it time for Booking Holdings to correct and let the steam out of the overpriced and struggling business?
Following Covid pandemic travel business has suffered the greatest blow for over a decade impacting all the areas of this industry. And it still has not fully recovered.
Specifically with this company the financial indicators speak for themselves:
Revenue - 2021 figure was less than half of 2020 which was already impacted by the all known events, and 2022 is probably unlikely to recover to pre-Covid times
P/E - is at 78x and at the time when there is a high risk of global recession investors will be thinking twice if to hold this stock in the portfolio
Earnings Reporting - Q4 2021 results were not as impressive and Q1 has to be exceptional to keep investors interested
Technical analysis remarks - looking at the monthly timeframe (more visible in a log scale) it is possible to mark full impulse with an ending diagonal recently completed. The presented scenario suggests that this might be the first impulse and correction in the second wave is to follow. The retracement may be quite deep to 0.618 or 0.786 Fibonacci levels hence a significant drop to £1000 and $600 accordingly.
Considering both fundamental and technical points this scenario is quite plausible for Booking Holdings .

ABNB ER run up $ABNB 2HR Chart...
FA & TA
After surging to all time highs after just 2 months from IPO, we have seen a 30%+ correction from February's Highs. Now... with vaccines and more people wanting to experience certain activities that once was restricted due to a pandemic, ABNB's road to recovery could be starting soon. With Summer approaching and leisure travel activities expecting to rebound from March 2020, this is stock worth keeping an eye on for the Long Term and with Earnings approaching it could give investors a clear direction for the company. Now for the short term, it is possible we see a technical breakout of the falling wedge to retest the overall downtrend resistance (white line). Falling Wedge Breakout target - $160-165 needs to reclaim over 157.10 first. Keep in mind overall market sentiment is choppy!
