FSLY Fastly close to 52 week low If you haven't sold FSLY despite the bearish Head and Shoulders chart pattern:
Then you need to know that Fastly, a leader in global edge cloud platforms, has recently unveiled its latest innovation: the Fastly AI Accelerator. This marks the company's first AI solution aimed at enhancing the developer experience by boosting performance and reducing costs for applications utilizing large language models (LLMs).
The Fastly AI Accelerator is designed to optimize API calls and minimize expenses through intelligent, semantic caching. Leveraging Fastly's robust Edge Cloud Platform and its industry-leading caching technology, the AI Accelerator employs a specialized API gateway to significantly enhance the performance of apps using popular LLMs, starting with ChatGPT and soon extending to other models.
Given this promising development, I'm considering purchasing the $7.5 strike price call options for FSLY, expiring on July 19, $0.31 premium, to capitalize on the potential growth and increased market confidence in the company's innovative edge cloud solutions.

$FSLY | WEEKLY WATCHLIST 11/1Another prime example of AMAZING chart setup, terrible timing. Fastly reports earnings on November 3rd, therefore I will be waiting until after to consider a position. Textbook wedge breakout, with the retest holding into a bull flag which is looking to confirm. If we can hold above $52, targets above include $55, $58 and $64.
$FSLY Should be on your list this week Fastly (weekly) so far has recaptured 21EMA and right at the volume shelf resistance coming off a triple bottom.
If it breaks higher, good volume pocket above ... Plus keep in mind only 116M shares outstanding so good squeeze potential for a mid cap.
Just look at the run back in June... not saying that will happen again, but with a good ER and the setup, I think this COULD see $68 quick and should be on your watchlist.
FASTLY Ready For Lift-Off [LONG]The chart here of FSLY might be one of my favorite looking charts of recent memory.. however, if you are a close follower of the company, you may be a little fearful at the moment as this stock has gotten hammered for 10 months now. Not to mention the miss they had on earnings recently PLUS a bug in the company's infrastructure that apparently caused the web traffic of a major customer to vanish for almost an hour.
This has resulted in shareholders dumping the stock and leaving it for savvy traders to now scoop it up for pennies on the dollar as the stock has fallen 75% in value back down to fair value areas according to what we have outlined here in what appears to be the completion of a classic 5 Count Elliot Wave correction.
And now this young stock has found itself back above the $41 price level.. a very important level as there is nothing to catch the price below this level as far as the eye can see according to the common Fibonacci retracement of this asset's all time high to its all time low.
This makes the levels shown on this chart very credible and one who owns this asset would be wise to not fall asleep on what is happening to the stock's current price.
Furthermore, we have possible classic bullish divergence on the weekly.. although it is much more discernable on the daily.
Either way, FSLY looks all systems go in the fact that it is sitting snug above our .236 fib level, a technically great area for price to run to higher prices if support is maintained here.
It is currently a 6% drop to reach our desired entry at $41. So one might find a better, yet slightly riskier entry just above our heads at the next fib level which would be $45.40. Much higher above that we have more buy zones but the spot we are at now will be where the most gains are made.
Lastly on Fastly, anything below $40 is bearish and a daily/weekly candle close below this level would be enough to refrain from looking for any further longs in the immediate future.
If you own this stock and you are fed up with it, you may want to stick it out just a little longer as FSLY could be looking at a DOUBLE in price in the not so distant future.
FSLY Fastly Head and Shoulders Price TargetThe head and shoulders pattern is one of the most reliable trend reversal patterns.
The distance from the neckline to the head is the same for the retracement from the neckline to the bottom.
In this case, using Renko candles to understand better the H&S chart pattern, the price target is 31usd.
FSLY Death Cross + Break in Support could bring big downsideFSLY is down approximately 50% since January 27th and unfortunately it looks like the bleeding may continue. As you can see from the chart the retest of support is occurring in unison with the occurrence of the moving average death cross. I think there is a good chance support will be broken here in which case I believe we would likely see a further drop in price to $40-$50 level.
FSLY clear bullish ready for b/oI really love their services and can see a lot of room for growth with cloud and real-time communications and security and IoT-related businesses. The chart was also acting very predictable from July, having 5 breakouts on the same area around $83 where we sit now! All started from the first breakout in early July after some bullish accumulation.
It dropped multiple times to 80-83 area (VPOC) with so much bullish accumulation, confirmed by 5 times b/o from that level (indicating institutional investors are buying more to help breakout there). Now we sit at the same level. the last time we broke it lower was with the TikTok surprise and panic sell, which may not happen this time (no surprise to investors now).
Last ER, we had a drop for 3 days and then a run to a much higher level. And why I am long now?
I love their service long-term, so clearly bullish on them.
touching strong support area now which has a history of 5 breakouts!
touching 200ma on daily as potential support, making this 80-83 box now even stronger support
80 psychological support level
very good risk/reward at the moment. Risk levels: 80, 72, 70, 65, 60. Reward levels: 90, 100, 107, 120.
Trade safe!
