Trend analysis of SATSUSD by Dow theoryFor SATSUSD, as the last Higher Low has been broken on the weekly timeframe, we can say that it is a clear sign of the trend reversal. I am expecting that there will be more downward pressure for the price action at important Fib levels, creating new Lower Highs and Lower Lows.

Alt season is here! Is Still too late to get in? Looking at the YTD chart of top 10 alts, I found out that all of them have outperformed bitcoin.
Eth, Binance, Dot, Ada are providing the blockchain entrepreneurial infrastructure for projects to create Dapps (Decentralized applications) and DAO's (Decentralized autonomous organizations), allowing new decentralized solutions as DeFi, and NFT’s.
Fundamentally backed by blockchain technology, a new era of startups promises to disrupt and take market share in many industries, will it achieve it? We don't know, but right now the hype cycle has kicked in and the risk of missing out (ROMO) is higher than investing in crypto. So you’re still not late to buy some alts. This might be one of the biggest alt seasons of all times.
LTC possible correction support levelsIf LTC corrects, from the hi/lo and volume I deduced it could reach the marked support levels. From the overall popularity and demand for crypto I think that in the medium-term the trend is looking to be bullish .
I know corrections are usually considered 10% falls in price, but for crypto I feel the percentages are a bit off.
Feel free to to leave a comment if you have some thoughts on ETH, BTC or LTC :) or if you see something I have missed in this short analysis of LTC.
Right now I have a little bit FOMO, but I would feel uneasy just throwing some money into crypto without waiting for a little pull-back, knowing that there is a chance of bouncing from the support levels. I don't see anything like that for the future price of crypto. Is the price going to fall after raising another 10 or 20 or 30%? I don't know.. but what I feel like I might know is - big tech is investing into crypto, and incorporating its platforms (ETH) into their systems. So I feel like a fall of 10 % or even 20 % would be seen as a big buying opportunity by everyone, making the price jump back up.
Well, those are my thoughts for now, have a wonderful day!

Introduction to Dow TheoryThe Dow Theory is the core of contemporary technical research. Its premises have stood the test of time and underpin the study of market behavior research. The basic principles of Dow Theory and their importance in today's markets will be discussed in this article.
Origins and History of the Dow Theory
Many of the early studies that contributed to what is now known as Dow Theory is credited to Charles H. Dow. Dow's successor, William P. Hamilton, continued to establish and organize many of Dow's initial early publications, including the Wall Street Journal editorials written at the turn of the twentieth century. Robert Rhea, a Hamilton student, was later responsible for categorizing, refining, and formal codifying Dow's fundamental principles, which were set out in Rhea's book The Dow Principle.
In 1884, Dow reported an 11-stock stock market average, which he later extended into a 12-stock Industrial Index and a 20-stock Railroad Average. Instead of attempting to gauge market activity by individual stock movement, Dow decided to build an index of stocks that would better represent the aggregate action of the markets. The averages' movement was intended to serve as a barometer of the overall business environment. Since then, the 12-stock Industrial Index has morphed into the Dow Jones Industrial Average, which now contains 30 stocks.
Market trends according to Dow Theory
Robert Rhea explains in this book that three distinct patterns are considered to prevail in the market according to Charles H. Dow.
1. Primary trend – that lasts from months to years
2. Secondary reaction (intermediate trend) – weeks to months in duration
3. Short term trend – days to weeks
The Primary trend
The primary pattern is by far the largest, and it is typically predicted to last months to years. Main trends, according to Rhea, are less vulnerable to distortion and therefore provide a more accurate indicator for investment decisions. There are 2 types of primary trends: primary bull trend and primary bear trend . An uptrend is described in Dow Theory as a series of successively higher highs and lows. The concept "downtrend" refers to a sequence of lower highs and lows.
Primary trends have 3 phases. A primary bull or bear trend consists of these 3 phases:
a) Accumulation phase
b) Trending phase
c) Distribution phase
Accumulation usually happens after a sharp and fast drop in values, usually as a result of companies releasing extremely negative results. At this point, the uninformed market participants are normally incredibly bearish, selling whatever shares they have left at any amount. Market investors who are well informed and trained continue to buy shares at incredibly low levels.
The uptrend and downtrend phases make up the trend process.
After a sustained and dramatic rise in prices, distribution usually occurs. Both newspapers and news reports are extremely bullish, and businesses appear to outperform. Uninformed market traders are prone to being too bullish, buying up whatever shares are available in the market at any expense, a condition known as excessive exuberance. Margin debt is at an all-time high. During the distribution process, smart investors begin to liquidate shares steadily, taking care not to push down rates too fast so that they can continue to sell at higher prices.
The secondary trend or reaction
The secondary trend or reaction moves or reacts in the opposite direction of the existing primary trend. It normally lasts a few weeks to three months, but it can last a little longer in some cases. The secondary reaction typically retraces one-third to two-thirds of the spectrum of the primary trend. Any retracement or reversal of more than two-thirds of a percent on big volume typically suggests that the secondary response is a new primary bear market. Dow Theory further emphasizes the value and psychological meaning of the 50% retracement stage, which is a viewpoint held by another influential technician, W. D. Gann.
The minor trend
Minor patterns aren't taken into account in Dow Theory. “The stock market is not rational in its fluctuations from day to day,” Hamilton wrote in his book The Stock Market Barometer. Minor patterns will last anywhere from a few days to a few weeks.

AMC: Next Key Points we all must keep in mind!Hello traders and investors! Let’s talk about AMC today! It did some very technical movements, and it is about time to update you since my last analysis (the link to it is below, as usual).
In my last analysis we discussed the two most important key points for AMC, the black line at $ 7.63 and the purple trendline . Well, AMC respected again the $ 7.63 as a support level before it defeated the purple trendline, triggering a buy sign.
What’s even more curious is that it did break the trendline by doing a Breakaway Gap (yellow area), which is a very powerful sign. A Breakaway Gap is a gap that defeats a support or resistance, in this case, it defeated the trendline and the 21 ema.
Now, AMC is doing a pullback to the 21 ema, which is normal and expected. Let’s see the daily chart for more clues:
We already talked about how the bulls were in the control of this situation, thanks to our reading of the volume , and the movement seen this week reinforces this idea. The volume is increasing, as the price goes up, all according to the 5th Tenet of the Dow Theory: The Volume Must Confirm the Trend . When we combine our typical Price Action style with a good reading of the volume, we have all the tools we need to trade well.
But what now? Pullbacks to the 21 ema are expected, and I believe we’ll see one, but since it did break the bearish sentiment, we can expect it’ll fill the gap at $ 12.91 (red line). If AMC will fly again or not, we don’t know. It feels it is too late to buy it (the good buy was around the $ 7), but if it breaks the $ 12.91, it’ll trigger a Cup & Handle chart pattern, and AMC could easily seek the $ 20 again.
This stock is harder to read now, but soon it’ll do something interesting again. And if you liked this analysis, remember to follow me to keep in touch with my daily studies, and to support this idea with your like!
Thank you very much!
ETHUSDTOn the weekly time frame the A-B move have retraced to the 61.8% fibonnaci level and formed a pin bar on the daily timeframe.
Momentum is still currently bearish so i would be avoid buying until a higher high is formed on the daily time frame or a bullish candle stick forms at the previous support of the 61.8% fibonacci level.
TITAN - 5G - Lumen Tech. $LUMN - The 4th Industrial RevolutionI am ultra bullish on Smart cities, AI, edge computing, 5G/6G telecommunications, cybersecurity and AR/VR. Lumen Technologies (CenturyLink) seems to be a sleeping giant that checks all those boxes. Lumen is facing a similar situation as Nokia and Blackberry as value company which is about to enter a second growth cycle, and like Palantir Technologies, it is facing a situation of massive short selling pressure during institutional accumulation. The ruthless manipulation after earnings beat signals to me how bullish institutions are on the company, and the overwhelming (unreasonable) bear sentiment signals that the shakeout is upon us.
FA:
Highlights: "Lumen Technologies is the only company to win Frost & Sullivan's prestigious 2021 Global New Product Innovation Award".
Who are they?
- "Lumen brings together the talent, experience, infrastructure and capabilities of CenturyLink, Level 3 and 25+ other technology companies to create a new kind of company—one designed specifically to address the dynamic data and application needs of the 4th Industrial Revolution." - Company website.
- Already is the global leader for fiber network. Lumen has the largest ultra-low-loss fiber network in North America with 3.5 million miles of high-capacity.
- Owns the world’s most-connected CDN (Content Delivery Network).
What do they do?
- "Lumen is an enterprise technology platform that enables companies to capitalize on emerging applications and power the 4th Industrial Revolution". They are focused on the 5G/6G sector, which I speculate will see explosive growth soon.
- "We integrate network assets, cloud connectivity, security solutions and voice and collaboration tools into one platform that enables businesses to leverage their data and adopt next-generation technologies."
- Focused rebranding for edge computing solutions and 5G sector.
- Lumen has partnered with VMware to develop cybersecurity software: Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) Mitigation, Web Application Firewall (WAF), Bot Risk Management (BRM).
- Black Lotus Labs is their threat research arm, the world’s most deeply peered networks and industry-leading endpoint protection and datacenter virtualization.
Key Products:
- Premises Edge: Tactile Internet, Virtual reality, Augmented reality.
- Metro Edge: Smart manufacturing, Video analytics, POS transactions, Retail robotics, IoT.
- Cloud Core: AI/ML platforms, Big data analytics, Disaster recovery, SaaS, Cloud storage, Hyperscale environments.
Clients:
- Salesforce, Zoom are big customers already.
Financial Performance:
- Growth & Trend shows they are almost profitable: Reported a Net Loss of $1.232 billion for the full year 2020, compared to a Net Loss of $5.269 billion for the full year 2019. Excluding Integration and Transformation Costs and Special Items, reported Net Income was $1.801 billion for the full year 2020 compared to $1.409 billion for the full year 2019. The trend is positive.
- Cash Flow Positive.
- Invested Capital and Total Assets are decreasing, yet total liabilities and debt decreasing, while CapEx is increasing.
- Reduced Net Debt by approximately $1.6 billion and reduced leverage to 3.6x Net-Debt-to-Adjusted EBITDA.
- For 2021, Lumen has debt obligations of $2.4 Bn still.
- However, Lumen had $34.1 Bn of debt in 2020.
- LUMN finished the year with $2.9 billion in free cash flow and a requirement of $1.1 billion to meet its dividend obligation.
- Insiders & Insider Trading: -0.92%
- Institutional Ownership: 79%
- About 659 funds hold LUMN, and interestingly enough, while the stock price dumped, Average 13F Ranking has been steadily increasing. This aligns with the Accumulation Distribution model that I presented.
- Float: 976.12M.
- Short % of Float: 7.51%.
- Valuation: 0.97 P/B ratio and 0.64 P/S ratio. Undervalued, by traditional valuations.
- Financial Reporting: Solid.
- Potential:
5G Market:
Market size value in 2020: USD 41.48 Billion
Revenue forecast in 2027: USD 664 Billion
"The global 5G Applications and Services Market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 25.8% from 2019 to 2027"
(According to 180+ page research report by Fidelity National Financial)
- Lumen Technologies should benefit from the growth of the 5G market, so we can expect 25.8% CAGR in revenue from their market share of 5G, and factor in growing market dominance.
TA:
- Accumulation/Distribution Phases are rather difficult to predict with Elliot Wave Theory, so Dow Theory will be used instead.
- Expecting 600%+ move up on breakout.
- MACD long term analysis:
- Short term outlook: Fib support level, with a big whale buy. Looks ready to move up.
- MACD short term bullish divergence:
- Stoch RSI indicating possibly one more shakeout:
- Historical analysis showing this is likely, if the same whale is in charge:
- However, Fib levels indicate that it cannot possibly go much lower!
QA:
- Interestingly, it would take 5.7 days for shorts to fully cover. It is likely the shorting was used to take the price down from the previous distribution level. Great short squeeze potential.
- Naked short selling report collected from FINRA shows that naked short volume was massive in the end of Jan. Most likely to suppress the price at the resistance point. Institutions were not positioned for the breakout yet.
- Options flow does not present high gamma squeeze potential, however, the low OI presents a very good long entry.
VERDICT:
- The company is reducing debt and leverage. This is smart, as there is sentiment that a market correction and stagflation is nearing.
- The critical point that investors will need to decide on is if the company can survive such conditions with their remaining debt. At this point, it looks like their debt will soon be eliminated, and they will be profitable.
- It is my speculation that in the case of a tech correction, and a rotation into value, tech will still thrive, but it is companies like these - non-speculative, but necessary, will be real winners. A lot of retail excess will be trimmed from unreasonably valued companies. At least some Institutional investors seem to share this sentiment, judging from their accumulation.
- This company checks many boxes for me, and looks ready for an explosive move up, so I assign it an S-tier rating.
STRATEGY:
- Accumulate.
- Entry levels: 7.50, 4.00.
- Trigger for Long: breakout of falling wedge resistance.
- Wave 3 PT: 80.00.
- Wave 5 PT: 130.00.
I think the Impulse wave 3 target of 80 aligns with the MACD signaling a 600% move-up to come. This is a high probability level.
This would put the company's valuation at 86B~, which is not unreasonable, and even still would be undervalued, in my opinion.

AAPL: Good reaction above a TRIPLE-SUPPORT level!Hello traders and investors! Let’s talk about AAPL today!
In my last analysis, we discussed the possibility of AAPL losing the Pennant downwards, and this is exactly what happened, given the daily chart was too stretched back then. If you missed my previous analysis, the link to it is below, as usual.
Now, AAPL is reacting well, and it is trying to reverse this short-term bear trend. The stock is trading above the 21 ema again, this is good, but more importantly, it is doing higher highs/higher lows , and it triggered a bullish pivot point by defeating the red line at $ 136.
Now, the $ 136 is working as support, along with the 21 ema. Let’s see the daily chart now:
In my last analysis, I set a target at the black line ($ 137), as it was a strong previous resistance in the past, but when AAPL lost the Pennant in the hourly chart, the sell-off was so intense that it lost the black line, and it only found a support in the next bottom area, made by the 21 ema and the red line at $ 132 (previous top) and the purple trendline, filling a gap on the way.
This was a very strong triple-support level , and now it seems AAPL is starting to react, the only thing that concerns me is the low volume. According to the 5th tenet of the Dow Theory , “the volume must confirm the trend”, and when the volume doesn’t follow the price, we have a divergence .
If AAPL loses this triple-support level again (which will not be easy), then we may start to think about a sharper correction, but this wouldn’t be enough for a reversal yet. We must follow Apple closely, and if you liked this idea, remember to follow me , and please, support this analysis !
Thank you very much. Have a great weekend.
SPX: New record! What's next? A complete analysis (H,D and W).Hello traders and investors! Let’s analyze the SPX this Friday, and do our usual complete Multi Time Frame Analysis (MTFA) by looking at the 1h, D and W charts!
The index did a new record high today, which is incredible, and so far, there’s no top, pullback or reversal sign around here. The black line at 3870 is a support level, but the index could drop all the way to the 21 ema, and the trend would still be bullish.
The 3827 seems to be another Key Point , but the 3870 is more relevant, and we can see why by looking at the daily chart.
The 3870 is the previous All Time High, and if the SPX closes under it next week, then the odds of a sharper pullback increase dramatically.
In the daily chart we have some very solid and strong support levels at the 21 ema and purple trendline area , and this area would be a target if the index loses the 3870 again.
We should be aware of the low volume seen this week, which is not following the price. According to the 5th Tenet of the Dow Theory, “the volume must confirm the trend”. When we see a divergence like this, is an alert sign to us.
Now, the weekly chart:
Yep, the index denied completely the Bearish Engulfing seen last week, frustrating any expectation of a pullback to the 21 ema in the weekly chart.
Now, the index is doing another ATH, giving a headache to the bears, and again, not a single top/pullback/reversal sign around. We must keep our eyes open and focus on the points mentioned in this analysis, and if you liked it, remember to follow me to keep in touch with my ideas, and please, support this idea if it helped you!
Have a great weekend!
SPX: Key Points we must keep in mind!Hello traders and investors! Let’s see how SPX is doing today!
The volatility increased a lot recently, and this led to a false breakout from the support level at 3827, which is a Key Point that worked as support and resistance in the past, as evidenced by the black line. Also, the previous Gap area worked as a nice support as well.
Since the index is trapped between this black line and the ATH (green line at 3861), and the 21 ema is flat, we can say that we have a Congestion , and the SPX must break free from it, in order to either resume the bull trend, or collapse to lower levels.
The daily chart may give us more clues:
Yep, the 3827 is the Jan 8 All Time High, and it seems it is working as a support now. Not a surprise, as it is just following the Principle of Polarity of the Technical Analysis.
Today’s candlestick is quite impressive, so far, as we have a huge shadow under the candlestick’s body, indicating that the bull trend is still here, and we won’t see it changing until a clear reversal occurs ( Dow Theory, 6th tenet ).
If the index loses again the 3827 (and closes under it), then the SPX could drop again to the Purple Trendline, and this wouldn’t be enough to change the bullish bias. The index didn’t even retest the 21 ema yet, so the trend is very bullish, indeed.
As long as we don’t see a clear reversal sign, the index will just continue to climb . And if you like this analysis, remember to follow me to keep in touch with my daily studies, and please, support this idea! Check my latest analyses on the links below.
Thank you very much!
NIO: Should we panic or not?Hello traders and investors! It seems NIO is following the sell-off seen in the global markets today. Let’s see what’s going on.
Well, NIO is just doing what we discussed in my last analysis, and since it lost the 21 ema in the hourly chart it triggered the pullback to the $ 57.20, all according to the plan. If you missed my previous analysis, just check the link below . Also, NIO just filled the last gap, making it an Exhaustion Gap , so it is natural that the bull trend will get weaker from now on. But this is not a reversal sign , just a weakness sign.
The daily chart can give us more clues:
The $ 57.20 is not a random number, it was a previous resistance and according to the Principle of Polarity of Technical Analysis, it is supposed to work as a support now, and it seems this is exactly what NIO is doing.
If the pullback persists, it may touch the 21 ema in the daily chart, and this would be just an opportunity, since the chances are that this is just a harmless pullback.
Why do I think it is a harmless pullback? For 2 reasons. First, the trend is bullish, and according to the Dow Theory 6th tenet, trends persist until a clear reversal occurs , and so far, no clear reversal. Second, NIO has been dropping in the last few days, yes, but the volume is too low, indicating that this is not a true sell-off, no one is aggressively selling NIO, but just the market resting. If the volume were bigger, then we would have a different story.
If this analysis helped you, please, support it! And remember to follow me to keep in touch with my studies, and in the links below you’ll find some of my previous analyses.
Thank you very much, have a great weekend!
PLUG: 3 exit strategies you can use now!Hello traders and investors! Let’s see how PLUG is doing today!
The stock is performing amazingly well, and so far, we didn’t see any reversal or pullback signs around. And I got some strategies you can use here if you are anxious or afraid of a pullback.
First, I would put a trailing stop on the previous day’s low, and if PLUG closes under it, I would just get out of it and wait to buy back after a pullback to the 21 ema. Or I would use the hourly chart to guide me:
As long as we don’t see any bearish pattern around, we are fine. PLUG is in a strong bull trend, doing higher highs/higher lows, and you could wait for a bearish pivot to appear to sell your position.
Or you could wait for it to lose the 21 ema in the hourly chart , if you are more anxious.
But since PLUG is in a very strong bull trend, if it drops, I would only see an opportunity to buy more. Pullbacks are different from reversals, and just like Dow stated on the 6th tenet of the Dow Theory: The trend will persist until a clear reversal occurs.
If this analysis helped, remember to follow me to keep in touch with my studies, and please, support this idea if you liked it! You’ll find more analyses on the links below.
Thank you very much.
SPX: New All Time High! So, what now?Hello traders and investors! Let’s see how the SPX is doing today!
We have a new record high today, which is incredible. This bullish momentum was triggered when the index did this classic Piercing Line pattern near a support level (purple line), which we discussed about my last analysis (Jan 4, link below as usual).
Yesterday’s drop was quite unusual, but in the end, was just a pullback to the 21 ema, rather than an actual sell-off. Now the key point is the 3783 , as if the index loses it, we may see a sharper pullback, but still, wouldn’t be anything too drastic, as the trend is incredibly strong here.
Now, the daily chart:
The volume is increasing, which is another good sign, and we are quite far from the 21 ema. Again, if the index loses the 3783 a pullback to the 21 ema/green line at 3726 would be natural.
So far, there are no pullback or reversal signs yet, and if SPX keeps above its supports, the bull trend will persist, until a clear reversal occurs, like Charles Dow would say ( Dow Theory 6th tenet ).
If you liked this analysis, remember to follow me to keep in touch with my daily studies. And support this idea if it helped you!
Thank you very much.
NIO: Two important Pivot Points for NIO!Hello traders and investors! Let’s see how NIO is doing right now!
First, NIO is still engaged in a bull trend, but it seems it is retesting the 21 ema. Any bullish reaction near this support level would be welcome, and NIO has a new pivot point , at the $ 45.57 (black line).
If NIO triggers this pivot point, it could easily hit the $ 48.65 (pink line) again, which is another pivot point seen in the daily chart:
The pink line is the pivot point here, and NIO must defeat it in order to resume the bull trend in the daily chart as well.
NIO is trading above the 21 ema, which is a good sign, but the volume must increase. Volume is a trend’s fuel, and if NIO needs more volume to defeat the pink line. The movement is good so far, but the volume must confirm the trend (Dow Theory: 5th tenet).
So far, we are doing well, but not perfect. Let’s watch NIO closely for more signs, and to keep in touch with my daily updates, remember to follow me! And please, support this idea if it helped you!
Thank you very much.
AAPL: A Key Point we all should be aware of!Hello traders and investors! Let’s talk about Apple today!
The key point for Apple in the short-term is the $ 121.98, because it was a previous top , which was defeated today, but if AAPL loses it again, the market may see this as a false breakout, and it could retest again the 21 ema.
I wouldn’t say that Apple is in a strong bull trend, as we are still quite close to the previous top, and if we look at the daily chart, it seems we have a congestion:
As we can see, the 21 ema is flat, and since the momentum is bullish in the hourly chart, at least, it seems Apple will retest the blue line at $ 125.39. But again, the purple line is the most important support here, and it is a pivot point as well.
This makes me believe that in the mid-term Apple could hit the All Time High , but it must not lose the purple line again. Another good indicator is that the volume seems to be increasing, and this fuels the trend. If Apple is going to trigger this pivot point for good, we must see some volume!
In the weekly chart we have a Pennant chart pattern, which was triggered this week, and the volume of the movement that made the Pennant is decreasing.
This is another indicator that the trend is probably going to continue in the mid/long-run, according to the 5th tenet of the Dow Theory : The volume must confirm the trend. If the volume is decreasing during a pullback, then it is not a real sell-off.
So far we have no clear reversal signs, but it is important to keep the $ 121.98 for now. And if you liked this analysis, remember to support it! And follow me to keep in touch with my daily updates.
Thank you very much.
NIO: Pullback or Reversal?Hello traders and investors! Ok, NIO is dropping sharply today, let's see what's going on here.
Today NIO lost the pink line that we discussed yesterday in my previous analysis, and if you missed it, the link to it is below . This is a sign that the trend is getting weaker, and the next stop would be the $ 42.51.
But this doesn’t mean the bull trend is over, and the daily chart can tell us better:
Ok, NIO lost the pink line as we discussed, but remember that this is a long-term bull trend , and it’ll continue this way until we see a clear reversal pattern . So far, the movement seen in the hourly chart just triggered a pullback in the daily chart.
The 21 ema is an important support for NIO right now, and although it can drop more looking at the hourly chart, if we see any bullish reaction here tomorrow, it would be a great sign.
Also, look at the volume . Since its All Time High it has been decreasing, and it is under average. The volume is a powerful indicator of the reliability of a movement. According to the 5th tenet of Dow Theory , the volume must confirm the trend, and when we see a correction against the main trend with low volume, it is a sign that it is just a harmless pullback.
All of this makes me believe that this is just a pullback, but we don’t know where it’ll stop dropping. The 21 ema in the daily chart and the $ 42.51 are good candidates for a bottom area, but as long we don’t see confirmation around, there’s nothing else to do.
And if you want to keep in touch with my NIO updates, remember to follow me , and support this idea if you liked it,
Thank you very much.
PLTR: Opportunity ahead?Hello traders and investors! Let’s talk about PLTR today! This stock is very popular now, and it is going up sharply, but are any reasons to worry about it? Let’s see.
In the hourly chart we have a false breakout of a bearish pivot (green line at $ 26.14). PLTR did a breakout and it quickly hit the next support level, which is the pink line at $ 24.25 (previous top), and now it is recovering very well.
If PLTR closes above the green line and above the 21 ema, it’ll be a good sign. But PLTR must not lose the pink line, as this could be a bull trap !
But let’s say it is a bull trap, and PLTR is going to fall, where would be the next support level? Maybe the daily chart will have our answers:
It is interesting, because the green and the pink lines are Friday’s low and today’s low respectively.
The trend is clearly bullish , and there are no reversal signs ahead. Again, let’s keep in mind the 6th Tenet of Dow Theory : “Trends Persist Until a Clear Reversal Occurs”.
If PLTR loses the supports mentioned above, a pullback to the 21 ema is something we can expect, but again, this is not a reversal sign, just a pullback.
Pullbacks are healthy movements that all stocks do, and they usually give us opportunities to buy/buy back/buy more. Meaning, if PLTR drops to the $ 20 again, I see no reason to worry.
Also, the volume increased a lot during this bullish movement, which is good, as the volume confirms the trend.
In the short-term, I would monitor the support levels mentioned in this analysis, but I wouldn’t be too worried about it. And if you like this analysis, then please, support it ! And follow me to keep in touch with my daily updates.
Thank you very much.
