BTK

Trade idea #BTK long on a break of the 5450 levelBiotechnology belongs to the sectors of the stock market which were rather moderately affected by the Coronacrisis. In fact, in the second half of april the NYSE ARCA Biotechnology Index even managed to surpass its pre-corona levels to attack its previous high at about 5.420. However the advance of the preceding days was too strong to get beyond that level and in line with the total market the index got rejeceted at that resistance level. Looking now at the weekly chart a multi-month range between 3850 and 5450 can be seen which followed a previous advance of the index. Trend trader would now expect the index to pass the upper boundary of that range but we have to patiently wait if that will happen or if the index will continue to trade within that range. For a long breakout trade the following trading strategies are possible: a/ set a buy stop order > 5.550 (upper boundary at 5.450 + 2% ) b/ go long on a daily close > 5.450 c/ go long on a weekly close > 5.450 (unless price gets too far away from the 5450 handle) d/ after a successfull breakout wait for a consolidation back to the 5450 level to look for a Long entry Which strategy you use depends of course on your trading style. Also a combination of the 4 strategies could make sense, i.e. 33% for a/, 17% for b/, 17% for c/ and 33% for d/. Stop loss should be the last swing low. If the index won't take out last week's low this would be 4.950, otherwise the stop must be adjusted. A first target for 50% of the position could be set at the round figure of 7.000. I will update on the trade idea. See you.

BERKSHIRE HATHAWAY(BRK.B) | Short-Term 10% Growth Potential If..Hi, The "famous" and loved stock among investors, Berkshire Hathaway, approaching a pretty sweet breakout zone. Since the mid of 2018, the price has started to "draw" a chart pattern called Triangle. At the moment, we can say that this Triangle is a continuation pattern and if we see a Weekly candle close above the upper orange trendline (marked as a green area) then this trade/investment is triggered and it will start to approach new ATH's (all-time highs). Price, a candle close around 214-215. Several channels and wave analyses are pointed to the light-blue area, which is also "stock-short-term" target area, price 230-235. Berkshire Hathaway Inc. is an American multinational conglomerate holding company headquartered in Omaha, Nebraska, United States. The company wholly owns GEICO, Duracell, Dairy Queen, BNSF, Lubrizol, Fruit of the Loom, Helzberg Diamonds, Long & Foster, FlightSafety International, Pampered Chef, and NetJets, and also owns 38.6% of Pilot Flying J, 26.7% of the Kraft Heinz Company, and significant minority holdings in American Express (17.6%), Wells Fargo (9.9%), The Coca-Cola Company (9.4%), Bank of America (6.8%), and Apple (5.22%). Since 2016, the company has acquired large holdings in the major US airline carriers and is currently the largest shareholder in United Airlines and Delta Air Lines and a top three shareholder in Southwest Airlines and American Airlines. Berkshire Hathaway has averaged an annual growth in book value of 19.0% to its shareholders since 1965 (compared to 9.7% from the S&P 500 with dividends included for the same period) while employing large amounts of capital, and minimal debt. The company is known for its control and leadership by Warren Buffett, who serves as chairman and chief executive, and Charlie Munger, the company's vice-chairman. In the early part of his career at Berkshire, Buffett focused on long-term investments in publicly traded companies, but more recently he has more frequently bought whole companies. Berkshire now owns a diverse range of businesses including confectionery, retail, railroads, home furnishings, encyclopedias, manufacturers of vacuum cleaners, jewelry sales, newspaper publishing, manufacture and distribution of uniforms, and several regional electric and gas utilities. According to the Forbes Global 2000 list and formula, Berkshire Hathaway is the third-largest public company in the world, the tenth-largest conglomerate by revenue and the largest financial services company by revenue in the world. As of February 2019, Berkshire is the fifth-largest company in the S&P 500 Index by market capitalization and is famous for having the most expensive share price in history with Class A shares costing around $300,000 each. This is because there has never been a stock split in its Class A shares and Buffett stated in a 1984 letter to shareholders that he does not intend to split the stock.

Biotech symmetry. Let the market settle down, and then go long.The biotech sector is really interesting when you dive down into the symmetry of the last few cycles. Early 2000s-2008 and 2016-2018 are mini rallies within the bigger wedge. If this pattern is to continues, you can look for entry around the end of 2020 when we bump up against the larger support line (around $3600), and expect to hit the resistance of the larger wedge ($10,000). There is also a lot of confluence around the $7500 mark so we could fall back to that after hitting 10k. This would repeat this pattern for the third time. Near term, I have some shorts in this sector because I think many of this small biotech companies have been operating at negative cash flow with a ton of free credit. I don't expect massive gains on these shorts, but I will certainly be going long towards the end of 2020.
