** Once Price goes Bullish, I have upcoming Areas of Value that it may contend with on the way up!
ALB heating back upAfter breaking down from a falling wedge, ALB undercut a long term support line and things looked precarious. Recent weeks have thrown a lifeline to the beleaguered shares with news of China's CATL cutting lithium production and now Rio Tinto's Arcadium takeover bid .
The Rio Tinto bid could have gone another way, since the bid in ALB's stock late last week centered around speculation they could be the acquisition target. It wouldn't have been surprising to see shares slump this morning, but the rally is in tact.
Featured here is the 4 hour chart, where we can see the price has broken through the 200 period moving average. Next up is a golden cross on the short term chart, and we're also looking for the daily chart to register an overbought reading to further validate the rally. Often times overbought signals a near term pullback, and that would be unsurprising. These cupping patterns can have violent breakthroughs or breakdowns as the price tries to penetrate to the upside.
Be patient. It may take a few weeks for momentum to build, but taking a step back to the montly chart we can gauge the potential of the rally that could well be underway. The $120's gets us back to the range before things broke down recently, that area looks very likely, and for the more patient $140 would take us back to the highs of 2017.
ALB - Dip formation might be in play Lithium prices fell more than 85% from their 2022 peak back to 2021 levels. There are still concerns about supply / demand issues. Slowing signals from EV sales might have worsened the outlook. But In 2025, the global demand for lithium is expected to surpass 1.4 million metric tons of lithium carbonate equivalent, a growth of 53 percent in comparison to 2023. And by 2030 3.1 million metric tons. (Statista)
Recently low prices pressured margins and Chinese CATL announced production cut equivalent to 8% of Chinese production. This might be a signal that we are close to low of business cycle.
Albemarle's name also recently came up in news with Rio Tinto's plans of acquiring a major lithium producer.
Volt Lithium ready for healthy uptrendVolt Lithium recently announced the successful deployment of their new DLE field unit in the Delaware Basin in partnership with a significant oil and gas producer. These units can be tailored and scaled for production at individual oil and gas well sites, making Volt's production flexible, geographically decentralized, and cost effective (Volt has one of, it not, the lowest lithium production costs as well as the lowest recoverable PPM that I have seen). Volt is a leader in current DLE production and has the benefit of maintaining a very low all-in sustaining cost- and ability to start small and scale upward. Volt's management team comes from the oil and gas industry and understand the business, giving them an edge on their competitors.
Looking at the charts - the price trend is holding strong and is touching both against the upper boundary of a wedge as well as bumping against a significant price level. I have hidden the much older price action that happened prior to the restructuring of the company into a pure lithium-focused company. I am expecting an eventual price breakout to the upside where the market cap reaches ~$250M USD or greater in the coming months and year. In the short term the price may either experience a modest pullback into this year's trading range or generally hold at this level prior to a breakout upward. Breakout above the wedge and holding steady above ~$0.5 CAD for a few days or weeks will be a clear indicator to me that we will see upward price movement over the coming months.
Can Rio Tinto Save the Day? The Looming Mining Supply CrisisAs the world races towards a greener future, a critical challenge looms on the horizon: a looming supply shortage for essential energy-transition metals, particularly copper. This shortage, if left unchecked, could jeopardize our ambitious plans for a sustainable future.
Rio Tinto, a global mining behemoth, has sounded the alarm, urging the industry to expand mining operations to meet the escalating demand. The company's chairman, Dominic Barton, has dismissed the notion that mergers and acquisitions alone can solve this crisis. He insists that organic growth, involving the discovery and development of new mines, is the only viable path forward.
The urgency of this situation cannot be overstated. The demand for copper, a vital component in electric vehicles and renewable energy infrastructure, is set to skyrocket in the coming decades. Failure to secure adequate supplies of this critical metal could hinder our progress towards a sustainable and electrified world.
Rio Tinto's leadership in the mining industry is undeniable. Their proactive stance on addressing the supply crisis is commendable, and their commitment to organic growth and exploration for critical minerals demonstrates their dedication to the cause. However, even with the efforts of industry giants like Rio Tinto, the road ahead is fraught with challenges.
The Chinese economy, a major player in the global mining landscape, is currently facing its own difficulties. While Barton remains optimistic about China's ability to overcome these challenges, their current economic state could further exacerbate the supply crisis.
As the world grapples with the pressing issue of climate change, the mining industry must rise to the occasion. The time for complacency is over. It is imperative that we invest in exploration, expand mining operations, and secure the critical resources needed to power a sustainable future. The stakes are high, and the world is watching. Can Rio Tinto and the mining industry save the day?

LITM a lithium penny stock gets momentum LONGLITM is a lithium mining company with operations is Western USA and Canada now getting a
lift as lithium prices are rising. It popped 16% today and hit a screener on volume yesterday.
This is a junior miner compared with LAC and SGML. As such it is more reactive to price. All
indicators confirm the move including the extent of the trend, relative volume spiking and the
RS lines. This is a low float low volume stock.
Accumulation of a low float could precipitate more price action upward quite easily.
As a volatile penny stock LITM is risky. Right now, I see a long trade in a
small position ( < 0.001 of account balance) for the potential gain despite the obvious risk
SL at 10% Targets at 10% 20% (red line pivots to the left-1.2o December to Feb) then 70% (
pivot low March 23) and finally 250% for the runners ( January and July 23 high pivots). Time
will tell. I expect great profit in this swing trade with stratified partial profits and less time
effort in the trend using alerts and notifications. A trailing loss will be employed at 10%
once the trade is over 20% profit.

PLS : Australian Lithium: Bullish: GARTLEY detectedPLS: Australian Lithium.
Let me remind you that Australia is the leading producer of Lithium in the world (50% of global extraction).
This “white gold” is mainly used in the manufacture of batteries for smartphones and electric vehicles (TESLA, Mercedes, etc.).
LAC lithium prices are currently very low! This is therefore a strong buying opportunity.
Lithium stocks extremely oversold on weekly and Has bullish DivsLithium stocks in extreme oversold spots right now, these stocks like "LAC" in my opinion is very good long-term hold with at least 400% - 560% gains in upcoming year or two. You rarely see anything as cheap as this, possible we will never see these lows again in our life times.
When stocks like TSLA and other Electronics will rise Lithium stocks will skyrocket. I expect the bigger moves begin when the weather will start to get warmer as of now the EVs having trouble with their batteries dying because of the cold, this will issue will disapear in big part of the world at spring.

Stock Rating
Is Buying Atlantic Lithium Limited Stock a Good Idea?
The consensus rating for Atlantic Lithium Limited from analysts is a resounding "Buy," reflecting the company's promising potential. The current share price may seem attractive, but it's crucial to exercise caution when investing in early-stage companies like Atlantic Lithium.
Trading Options for Potential Profits
While investing in Atlantic Lithium stock directly involves inherent risks, options trading can offer a more controlled approach to capitalize on the company's growth trajectory. Purchasing call options, which grant the right to buy Atlantic Lithium shares at a predetermined price within a specified period, can be a viable strategy to generate potential profits.
Potential Profits from Call Options
The price of call options typically moves in tandem with the underlying stock price. If the stock price of Atlantic Lithium rises, the value of call options will also increase, allowing option holders to purchase shares at a lower price and profit from the difference.
Risks Inherent in Option Trading
Options trading, like any form of investing, carries inherent risks. The option holder may lose the entire premium paid for the option if the stock price does not reach the strike price by the expiry date. Additionally, market volatility can significantly impact option prices.
Caution and Thorough Research are Paramount
Before venturing into options trading, it's essential to fully understand the risks involved and to conduct thorough research on Atlantic Lithium's fundamentals, market conditions, and potential growth prospects.
Conclusion: Weighing the Potential and Risks
Atlantic Lithium Limited presents a compelling opportunity for investors seeking exposure to the lithium mining industry's growth potential. However, the early-stage nature of the company and the inherent risks of investing in small-cap stocks warrant careful consideration. Options trading, while offering potential profits, also carries its own set of risks. Ultimately, each investor must weigh the potential rewards against the associated risks before making a decision.
Risk Warning
Trading stocks and options is a risky activity and can result in losses. You should only trade if you understand the risks involved and are comfortable with the potential for losses.
