PG slow and steady long term winner with earnings coming LONGPG on the weekly chart gained 15% in a year and had a dip in the past two weeks with earnings
at the end of this week. PG persistently and consistently beats earnings estimates and pays a
dividend. Moreover, it consistently has a bit of a surge after earnings. I see this as an
opportunity to get a good stock on a 4% dip of a discount and hold it through earnings for
perhaps a 10% profit in two weeks while also picking up the quarterly dividend. Some traders
including those institutionally based believe that buying near to the middle line of the Bollinger
Bands is a good entry for getting fair value. I am one of them.
Earnings
Weakening Patterns: NVDANASDAQ:NVDA is over-speculated on the short-term and intermediate-term trends. It has minimal support nearby for holding for a position trade.
Without retail groups or smaller funds, the price action is weakening at this time. Nvidia doesn't report until May 22 which is very late in the season but for now, it has some minor rotation going on.
If it continues to hold above the black line, then it can pattern out the excessive price gains. This is not a strong sell short opportunity, but it is important to keep an eye on this stock for the next couple of weeks.
Double Top Read and caused by MARUBOZU WHITE Here is a possible double Top, I have no doubt this will hit target but since BEARS and BULLS are still at war, BULLS can void out the double Top from the zone area $69,215 or somewhat below.
$67,630 is target but as always smart money may bring it down to $67,300 to trap many to think there is no double top and BTC is on crash mode.
Once MW pattern is complete then BULL RUN.
Yes, There's a lot to unpack:Earnings Outlook:
Analysts are projecting earnings of $2.64 per share, a slight dip of 1.5% compared to the previous year and with revenues estimated to be around $21.38 billion, marking a 13.6% decrease year-over-year, there are certainly some intriguing dynamics at play.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm not one to make predictions without the full picture, so I'll be holding off on sharing my analysis until after the earnings report is out. Once I've had a chance to dissect the numbers and assess the implications for Johnson & Johnson's future trajectory, you can expect a detailed breakdown from me.
My post-earnings analysis will be in the updates on this idea, I will explore what the numbers mean for investors and whether Johnson & Johnson is poised for growth or facing challenges ahead.
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.
MORNING STARSHeiken Ashi has displayed a color which I’ve names the morning stars. They have different sizes and are in color bright blue.
My morning stars has a tendency to foresee a bullish bull run up ahead which indeed has been reading that.
Works 90% of the time. So don’t judge by the cover, let’s read the time frames
This is part of my algorithm
MCK a large cap medical supply company LONGMCK is a large cap medical supply company- it has experienced respectable earnings reports
and steady growth as medical entities including surgery centers and hospitals are busy catching
up on electric surgeries from the COVID era. It is rising ar or under the second upper VWAP
line. The dual time frame RSI indicator ( by Chris Moody) shows that every time the faster
RSI ( 1 hour) RSI drops down to the 50 level it rebounds with a corresponding price move up.
These episodes are shown as thin black vertical lines. One of them is at present. The
forecasting algorithm of Lux Algo predicts a further rise to the level of 575 in the next six
weeks. The last earnings was quite solid with the next earnings in 4 weeks.
I will take a long trade here. I will add to the position for any dips to or below the
running EMA 9 but not reaching the EMA100.
I will take a partial profit at 560 and cut the position down to 25% the day before earnings for
purposes of good risk management. If price crosses under the running EMA100 I will
close the trade and collect the unrealized profit.
NFLX set up for a dip buy before the next earnings LONGNFLX has added 20% to price in the two months since the last earnings which were decent
but not remarkable. The 2H chart shows a dip of about $20 per share coincident with a fall
from the second upper VWAP line to support from the first upper VWAP line. The zero lag
MACD shows line rising over the horizontal zero level in perhaps a sign of bullish divergence.
The lines are now over the low amplitude histogram. I will take a long trade here targeting
$650. Recent news is the CEO sold 20,000 shares out of the 12,000,000 that he has control
of. Nothing unusual there. His friends and others ( myself included) may be buying the dip.
MS - Updated Analysis before earnings. Super healthy chartLove what i'm seeing here on Morgan Stanley pre=earnings next Tuesday. I want to see us continue to build liquidity in this very controlled orange selling channel where we can then find yellow to activate and bring us further up for a breakout of orange and beyond. My price target for the next few weeks is in the $99-104 range, earnings dependent.
Obviously, as with any industry, if banks that are announcing earnings on Friday announce positive results, you can expect the rest of the industry to follow. This, in addition to the extremely healthy chart movements, has me very bullish on MS and interested in watching this stock closely.
Happy Trading :)

ISRG: Controlled Sideways Patterns Ahead of EarningsThe Medical Instruments and Supplies industry had stellar growth until 2022, when it could not beat that anomaly in revenue growth which was one of the primary reasons for the intermediate-term correction in 2022.
2023 patterned out the abnormal revenues and earnings for most industries that benefited from either the pandemic or from the government OVER-stimulation of the US economy via mega amounts of stimulus checks to WORKING people. Stimulus checks should have been allocated to the unemployed only. That would have lessened the impact of the resulting anomalies. If anyone had bothered to study pandemic history, the impact would have been much less severe for American families and the economy.
As with hundreds of stocks at this time, NASDAQ:ISRG is trending sideways. This is not a perfect platform yet, but the sideways action has some of the traits of a platform such as consistent highs and lows from the perspective of a weekly chart.
The stock is above its previous all-time high now, which provides a technical support level. The weekly chart shows that there has been Dark Pool accumulation and professional traders in the mix.
IF the earnings report next week shows steady growth in both revenues and earnings in the 1st quarter, and IF the CEO's projections are positive, the stock could have an HFT gap up. If there was a negative surprise coming, the CEO should have warned by now. HFTs can make mistakes and gap it down. But if HFTs trade it down, then the stock price will immediately run back up into that sideways price level.
If the report indicates a flat or minor improvement, then it is likely to remain within the sideways trend for another quarter.
A controlled entry above the highs of the current sideways action eliminates that risk factor for either swing trading or position trading.
BULLISH ARROW BULL CONFIRMATION First regression is calculated, and second regression parallel with normal coordinates. Bull Arrow confirmed by a calculation lengths with a moving average in combination of one.
Red arrow was rejected by the bulls. Bitcoin is not ready to move down. Some slight corrections, but nothing major. My two trading support zones are at FWB:67K to $68k Area zones.
Long position has been set to 1.51 risk reward ratio.
GOOG- now at ATH completing A Cup and Handle LONGGOOG as shown on the daily chart has completed a cup and handle and has the momentum
of moving up to its previous ATH set 2/1/24 and November '21. This could forecast bullish
continuation to add $50-70 onto current price as so 30% onto the market cap. GOOG has
been relatively stable in the current general market environment. Earnings are coming in
three weeks. Google is dependent on ad revenues primarily and so its income stream is
relatively narrow focused no matter the variety of its services. I will take a long trade
here expecting good price movement heading into earnings with a trim of the position
just before earnings and stop loss adjustments at increments to diminish.
THE BEAST UNLEASHED over my GREEN PLOT WAVETHE BEAST HAS BEEN UNLEASHED. NOW MAKING THE MOVE TO DESTROY IDEAS CLAIMING FOR A BTC CRASH, by using HALVING and other methods saying: BTC will fall below $50k to Zero.
A fast rapid spike will come down a little for a pullback. My scalper reads, nowhere near the end.
THE BULL IS NOW TAKING VENGEANCE INTO ITS HORNS.
EXK will run as long as silver moves higher LONGEXK is a junior miner. With fixed expenses in its mining operations for the most part, margins
rise dramatically when silver is rising and the opposite is likewise applicable. This is the crux
of using junior miners as a means to profit from trending in precious metals. As a penny stock
EXK has hieghtened volatility as compared with Barrock Gold or the GLD ETF. there are other
junior miners. EXK has added 40% to its market cap in two weeks. Until the momentum of spot
silver fades, EXK will continue its momentum. I will add to my long position here and fortify
the call option position as well.
HIMS a gender focused health care company LONGHIMS had an excellent earnings report for a small cap company; it is consumer driven quality
focused and helps the customer feel good about him/her- self. It does not have any gender
orientation agenda nor any obvious political inclinations. On the 120 minute chart, it started
a moving averge convergence about a week before earnings. The Greeny TTM squeeze indicator
did its thing as the post-earnings action began. I see this stock as a good long to hold into
the next earnings and perhaps through it. HIMS is now at its all time high. There is no chart
horizontal resistance overhead and traders will note that. I see the bullish momentum
continuing perhaps with some healthy ( no pun intended) corrections while underway.
Healthcare is considered to be a hot sector for 2024 this small cap seems to be warmed up.
DELL leaps out of the shadows of SMCI LONGDELL has risen and is now at its all time highs. Apparently, its server intrastructure business
this thriving. It is chasing SMCI and does not have the high valuation ratios that make
SMCI look overextended. The indicators document the up trending price action. A price
forecast algorithm has DELL rising into a high pivot on April 18th with 35% upside to that
forecasted pivot. I am adding to my DELL position here for the anticipated two week trade.
Morgan Stanley - Pre-earnings Long Opportunity on retestI caught the breakout of this HTF selling channel and sold at the top. We are now retesting the orange selling channel with support from our strong buying teal channel and below it, yellow.
With banks announcing earnings in a little over a week, this could see us at $100 really quickly
Happy Trading :)

Lululemon: Unwarrented Selling Offers Excellent OpportunityNASDAQ:LULU Lululemon Athletica's Q4 performance exceeded expectations, with revenues rising 16% and gross margins growing by 4.3%. However, increased competition and price-conscious consumers have led to a decreased market cap and short-term headwinds.
Gross margins remain at 58% leading the industry and showing the prominence of the brand.
Lululemon has had great success internationally and continues to grow in Mainland China, and continues to remain a prominent brand in the United States.
Full-year diluted EPS came in at $12.20, jumping 83% y/y. With a P/E ratio of 30.57x, this entails a great deal of underlying intrinsic value.
During the year, Lululemon opened 56 net new stores, ending the year with 711 stores, showing no signs of slowing down and continues to innovate forward to keep up with competitors. While the retail environment in the United States has been recently challenging, I believe that the long-term fundamentals of the company outweigh any short-term headwinds, and the recent selloff provides an excellent opportunity for value.
I encourage potential investors to remain unemotional in volatile price action, and trust the fundamentals and management of a prominent brand and a very cash-positive business.
My one year price target remains at the technical support level of $515 with an upside of 44%.
TMF long trade setup 3X Bullish TreasuriesTMF on the 4H chart is set up at the bottom descending support trendline of a symmetrical
triangle in the approach to the apex. Price appears ready to reach for the upper descending
resistance trend line and the Echo Indicator ( Lux Algo ) makes that forecast. Current
ambiguities in a rate cut soon upcoming will make values of Treasuries a complicated matter.
I am taking a long trade targeting 54 with a stop loss at 50 in consideration of the triangle
pattern. I have existing positions in TLT.
Can ROKU run before earnings? LONGROKU on a daily chart is sitting on support in consolidation since the trend down after the
last earnings report. In three weeks there will be another report. The prior report showed
negative earnings but it did beat the estimates while revenues were a mild surprise. I expect
ROKU has done some belt trimming to try to get expenses decreased while growing revenues.
My long trade here is from thin support but targets the Fibonacci level of a retracement
back to recent high pivots. The target is 80 representing 30% upside. A stop loss will be
initially set at 61 but then raised 3.5% every time price rises 3% to gradually tighten it.
I will take a good part of the hopeful profits off the table a few days before the upcoming
report.
Goldman Sachs, the Buyback King?Goldman Sachs, one of the very few giant financial services companies left, is intending to do the first mega buyback program that will exceed One TRILLION dollars into 2025. Gasp.
So the chart shows the initial buybacks commencing and the support of its stock price during the very dicey sideways trend.
The company reports earnings Monday, April 15. Enough time to catch another swing run to earnings if the current consolidation breaks out to the upside.
NYSE:GS is a Sell Side Institution and admits it is heavily vested in NASDAQ:NVDA and other big tech stocks at this time. GS benefits from higher interest rates holding through this year.
VOR - a b iotechnology penny stock LONGVOR is a on daily chart. It is a biotechnology startup which is burning cash. As a resut this is
a speculative long trade for this company with products to treat leukemia ( blood cancer).
Price has crossed over the POC line of the volume profile and also completed an
anchored mean VWAP cross over. The Price Momentum Oscillator is reversing and buying
volume has increased since the earnings report showed less of a loss than forecasted.
I see 30% upside to the high pivot in mid-January. In conjunction with stop- loss set at the mean
anchored VWAP this is a R to r of about 3.
