Innoviz/CGRO Merger Play --> Will History Repeat Itself?!CGRO is expected to complete its merger with Innoviz (INVZ) technologies in the first quarter of 2021. If that timetable is to be believed then we are only looking at 1-4 month timeframe for the merger to occur. Innoviz is a lidar sensor play - think VLDR and LAZR . After analyzing VLDR/LAZR who are the well known tickers in this sector it looks like Innoviz could have a similar rally as the merger gets closer. Semi-recent news is that INVZ has partnered with Macnica (japan's largest distribution company) to sell its InnovizOne for the first time in Japan. InnovizOne has also been selected by BMW for its use in its fully autonomous electric car. Innoviz has some solid investors that interest me. They are backed by Softbank Ventures Asia and auto supplier Magna international. Magna international is one of the world's largest suppliers in the automotive industry and is the largest auto parts manufacturer in North America. So, seeing them invest millions into Innoviz is something to keep an eye on in the North American sector. Chart : What has drawn me to CGRO's chart is the 32% sell off over the past 44 days which may be finding a bottom at the $13 range. It held the Daily 50 SMA beautifully for 6 days straight which piqued my interest as well. - HVN: there is a HVN between $13-14 and we saw a fail of this lvl on 1/25-1/29 but then we regained the $13 lvl which was key. The POC is at $13.78 which will serve as a strong resistance. If we can close over the POC then I am really bullish on the trade. -Volume: there isn’t much special about the volume CGRO has seen the past 43 days as it has been mostly bearish with its sell off. - Important to note the bullish price action this past week vs the declining volume, might be signaling another leg down unless $ steps in this week. - 1/25 & 1/26 we saw 1.1 and 1.5 million volume with bearish candles both days. It looks to me like a failed bounce and subsequent gap down. Since these two days there has only been one larger volume day on 2/2 of 1.1 million. We had some bulls come into CGRO that day and try to reclaim the daily 20 SMA but were unable to close above. - MACD: CGRO’s MACD on Daily chart looks primed for a reversal, VLDR Daily chart also saw very similar MACD & RSI patterns before its merger rally Merger : - VLDR ran 148% the month leading up to its merger while LAZR hit 80% gains a few days before its merger and 150% gains the 4 days prior to its merger - I am by no means saying this is going to happen to Innoviz. If anything this shows that the lidar market is becoming saturated with companies going public. LAZR by comparison has a market cap of 10.8 billion and VLDR of 3.92 billion. The merger results in Innoviz with an estimated $1.4 billion equity value. - I am looking at these comparisons and think there may be a possibility here for a INVZ run up into its merger. The tricky thing about this play is timing. Plan: I am currently in a small starter position of CGRO at $13.37 and this week I will be looking to continue to add shares. Once we get some momentum I am also looking to add some March or April calls. 1. If CGRO continues to see no bullish volume I think we retest the triangle bottom trend line and might even see the $11.60-12 range where the other HVN is located (lower blue square on chart). If this is the case I will watch for a bounce at this HVN and/or the 100 SMA. 2. I want to see CGRO hold its $13-$14 HVN range and close over the 20 SMA on the daily chart. With such a long consolidation and merger news imminent I am adding a starter position and then waiting on volume accumulation to add a larger position. SL: If we fail the triangle pattern and look to be heading to the 11.60-12 range then that is a good opportunity to take the loss and re-enter lower. I have a smaller position so I am comfortable holding my shares through this breakdown if it occurs. I will more than likely avg down if these levels are seen. ***Downside: - Other Lidar plays that have SPAC’s supposedly merging in the first quarter are Ouster ( CLA ) and Aeva ( IPV ). The Lidar market will quickly have multiple companies joining via SPAC’s in the first half of 2021. This saturation can make it tricky for just one company to run. This writeup focuses on INVZ but a diversification of 2 or more of these Lidar plays may be more risk averse. Thanks for reading my write-up if you made it this far! would love to hear your thoughts on this play/sector. Give me a like and follow on TV for future trade ideas.

VLDR back to ATH? C&H breakout VLDR in a nice cup and handle pattern, Looking for a breakout of the handle to retest ATH. We could see a nice run up all the way to earnings coming up, with news coming out on developing next generation autonomous trucks and plans to accelerate commercialization of self driving trucks in China. Trading plan annotated in the chart. Minor resistance around 26 over that I'm looking at 30. Under 20 I'm looking for a retrace to 17.50 as the next solid support. Option Alert 25C 2/19 (Low risk: Medium reward) Tip: Set an alert on the trend line of the top of the handle, that will confirmation along with an increase in volume

Luminar Technologies $LAZR (bullish pennant) 🚀Luminar Technologies $LAZR seems to be bullish in the 4H timeframe. I don't like what I draw in this chart (2 pennants in one 😄) but it could predict technically what's going to happen. The price target might be between $45 and $63. We will see...

5 stocks with impressive moves for the week of 18.01-22.01.2021Making a different kind of post here as we had a really impressive week especially for a couple of stocks that caught the eye. First starting with Luminar Technologies $LAZR. For some time this stock has been on the radar of investors and traders and there is a reason. Not only promising perspectives for the company but the presence of a symmetrical triangle. Volumes are low as the figure is still forming and Yesterday we closed with a slight breach of the figure. I would wait for further development of the price as the volume on Friday's push wasn't that impressive. But definitely keep watching that one. Next up is NIO INC $NIO. The next promising company in the electric vehicles market. For some time it stayed quiet with low volumes during the formation of the symmetrical triangle. Activity picked up recently and the news from Friday that Nomura initiated a buy for the stock with a target of $80 really gave the price a boost. We are in continuation of the uptrend with currently no reason to pass this stock from your portfolio. Moving on to Palantir Tech $PLTR. Impressive breakout of the triangle here as well. A stock that has been mentioned a lot this week and was on the watchlist of a lot of traders and investors. Strong push supported by volume not seen in December 2020. Complete full candle with even no attempt to sell the top. If you've missed this impulse you'd better wait for a correction, but this stock is starting to make a name for itself in early 2021. Number four - FUBOTV INC $FUBO. The plans that were announced earlier in January for the company to acquire Vigtory really made an impact. The company rose 120% in the following days. That rise was then covered and we are in a consolidation, but volumes are talking about the strong activity. This is still hot, so keep an eye on the triangle as we are heading towards the upper resistance. And lastly, but not least - Gamestop $GME. With multiple halts on Friday's session, this stock jumped 80%. Some would say that the flag before that was the omen, but the battle between retail, investors, and Citron Research raged on. 134 million shares were traded according to Bloomberg stats. A backlash against Citron by bulls over its views on the Grapevine came to a head-on Friday when the short seller said it will decline to comment on the stock following the actions of "an angry mob". Have in mind that a couple of days ago insider sales in GME saw big activity. The stock market never ceases to amaze me... Thrilling action to tease your eyes and to temper with your nerves.
