Lyft | LYFT | Long at $9.75First, from a technical analysis perspective, NASDAQ:LYFT has not "officially" found a bottom yet. No one can confidently state it has - their guess is as good as yours. This analysis is full of caution simply around the fact this stock could absolutely dip to below $5.00 in the future.
With that said, NASDAQ:LYFT is currently the #3 travel app in the Apple store (#1 is Uber, #2 is Airbnb). It has a 4.9 (Apple) and 4.7 (Google) star rating and tens of millions of downloads. Car prices, insurance rates, parking fees, gas/electric rates, etc. are pushing more people into the rideshare environment. With a recession knocking on the US's door, the fee-for-service model will make more sense than actually owning for many. But, a recession is a recession and the market hates them... Lyft is currently the only true competitor to Uber and its earnings are likely to grow as the travel environment "modernizes" in the future.
At $9.75, the stock closed all previous lower gaps on the daily chart. Currently, open price gaps (which are often good predictors of future price movement) are all above its current price. A bottom *may* be in, but see intro... I view the current price as a personal buy zone with room for additional shares if the price dips to near $5 (and fundamentals don't change).
A high-growth potential stock in an ever-changing travel environment.
Target #1 = $15.00
Target #2 = $22.00
Target #3 = $30.00
Target #4 = $75.00+ (long-term view...)

UBER Technologies Options Ahead of EarningsIf you haven`t bought UBER before this major breakout:
Now analyzing the options chain and the chart patterns of UBER Technologies prior to the earnings report this week,
I would consider purchasing the 76usd strike price Puts with
an expiration date of 2024-11-15,
for a premium of approximately $2.75.
If these options prove to be profitable prior to the earnings release, I would sell at least half of them.
TSLA does the upcoming RoboTaxi announce change things LONGTSLA has the accouncement upcoming. Price will pump for sure. Will it then dump or
change the trend altogether? The forecasts are there. The tea leaves and crystal balls
will tell the rest of the story. In the meanwhile, I will take long trades to play this in
the immediate term. One million taxis making $250 / per day every day per each is
serious potential future growth perhaps at the expense of UBER and LYFT which may get
a bearish bias in the short term on this upcoming announcement. Playing the news
sometimes works.
Lyft Shares Rise After Q1 Results but Slides 5.25%Lyft ( NASDAQ:LYFT ), a ride-hailing company, reported mixed Q1 results, with quarterly losses of 8 cents per share, which missed the analyst consensus estimate of earnings of 3 cents per share. However, quarterly sales were $1.28 billion, beating the consensus estimate of $1.16 billion by 10.02%. This represents a 27.59% increase over the same period last year. Gross bookings for the first quarter were $3.7 billion, up 21% year-over-year.
CEO David Risher praised Lyft's strong start in 2024, stating that the company is executing well and bringing innovation to the market. Lyft saw second-quarter gross bookings of between $4 billion and $4.1 billion, adjusted EBITDA of between $95 million and $100 million, and an adjusted EBITDA margin of approximately 2.4%. The company remains on track to generate positive free cash flow for the full year.
LYFT Options Ahead of EarningsIf you haven`t sold LYFT on that disappointing earnings:
Than analyzing the options chain and the chart patterns of LYFT prior to the earnings report this week,
I would consider purchasing the 19.50usd strike price Calls with
an expiration date of 2024-5-17,
for a premium of approximately $0.87.
If these options prove to be profitable prior to the earnings release, I would sell at least half of them.
LYFT growth is inevitable from the current price point...LYFT based on weekly data has consolidated on the 10.0 price range quite a bit -- creating a strong order block support.

LYFT rises on news of the MSP dispute potential resolution LONGLYFT was a recent idea upload. The news regarding MSP and the dispute resolution has helped
it rise off the ascending support trendline of the rising wedge pattern. The pattern may predict
decreasing volatility towards price consolidation and then a break out from the wedge.
In the meanwhile, I have added to my position since price is above the support trendline.
The PVT indicator shows a flip out on the pullback and I see this as a good add long entry. On a
low 1minute time frame. price gapped up with an engulfing candle with corresponding volume
at the opening bell today.
Importantly, a high volume spike also occurred in the after-market hours.
My recent previous idea long on LYFT is linked here.
The call option for $ 21.00 for April 19- 8DTE popped 140% today. I picked up a decent number of calls and will close them incrementally as they profit over the next week.
LTFT breaks out over lower VWAP bands LONGLYFT on a 15 minute chart hit a high pivot about 3/20 and then fell until April 4 where a low
pivot reversal occurred. VWAP lines and a volume profile serve to support a bullish bias.
LYFT will likely rise to the Fibonacci level on the chart confluent with the mean anchored VWAP
or the zone of 19.25. If there is enough momentum passing through that high volume, liquidity
and volatility zone it could continue and push into the 20 level. I will take a long trade here
also noting the TSLA news regarding RoboTaxi has potential relevance. It is not beyond the
realm of possibilities that a partnership between TSLA and LYFT and or UBER comes on the
scene. This would provide a further catalyst of fundamental support for LTST's market cap.
LYFT Massive Bottoming Pattern and Bull FlagLYFT is forming an amazing bottoming pattern that's taken almost two years to shape up. Price is now sitting at the $18 pivot and consolidating in a beautiful bull flag since the power earnings gap a month ago. Now firmly above the 3 major EMAs and looking to fill that gap up to $30.
Lyft-ing Off: Why $LYFT is Poised for a Bullish Future
NASDAQ:LYFT has retested the $12 major support level and has a huge bullish momentum. The stock highly undervalued at this price and due for a major upside.
First off, let's talk about the elephant in the room: the pandemic. While it's been a wild ride for ride-sharing companies, Lyft has shown resilience and adaptability. They've implemented safety measures and expanded their offerings, which has helped them weather the storm. As the world continues to recover and people start moving around more, Lyft could be in a prime position to capitalize on the pent-up demand for travel and transportation.
Secondly, Lyft has been making strides in the autonomous vehicle space. They've partnered with some big names in the industry and have been testing their self-driving cars in various cities. If they can successfully integrate this technology into their platform, it could give them a competitive edge and potentially drive down costs in the long run.
Lastly, let's not forget about the power of the gig economy. As more people look for flexible work options, the pool of potential drivers for Lyft grows. This could help them maintain a strong supply of drivers and keep customers happy with shorter wait times and more reliable service.
As a major competitor for UBER, Lyft is highly undervalued at this price and looking to make some major moves to the upside.
IS UBER ready for continuation LONGUBER fell a little after good earnings. Apparently traders where disappointed. It then rallied
for three days to close out the week. The following week it retraced the rally for 2-3 days
and then consolidated for a week with a re-awakening of bullish momentum in the past prior
trading day. From here, I believe that UBER is ready for potential push to an ATH and gain
buying pressure along that way perhaps accelerated by short sellers liquidating their positions.
I will take a long trade here of both shares and call options.
LYFT - Bullish divergence on Weekly time frameLYFT has been in a crazy downtrend and it has lost over 90 % of its value from its ath.
However, things start looking interesting. We can see a bullish divergence on weekly time frame which suggest a sellers exhaustion.
However the downtrend is still in tact.
How to trade it?
You can enter long at the breakout of the falling wedge once we get it.
Entering long at 8 $ could be also a way as it's close to all time low that we saw in May 2023.
It would be also reasonable to buy at the downsloping support if the price goes so low.
Unfortunately fundamentals are not very good for LYFT therefore this trading idea is based SOLELY on the Technical analysis.
What do you think about LYFT? is it going to recover?

ACHR a penny personal air transport startup LONGACHR is a speculative penny stock with big momentum this past week for a continuation trade.
The chart is a basic 2 hour chart upside 20% to all time high no revenue burning cash but
improving on putting out the fire. No competition in its intended market. $5.00 strike calls for

work all the time by helicopter. Cost him some money but it added 10 hours a week onto his
life. He tells me this will be huge in time when the costs and economy of scale kick in. He
believe him 1000%. Buy, buy and then buy some more ( so long as you have your risk
management figured out. ).

Lyft's Earnings Error Sends Stock Soaring, But Reality BitesLyft ( NASDAQ:LYFT ) sent shockwaves through the trading floor with a monumental error in its earnings forecast, triggering a rollercoaster ride for investors. The company's stock skyrocketed an impressive 16% in premarket trading, only to reveal a stark correction that left analysts and traders alike reeling.
The drama unfolded when Lyft ( NASDAQ:LYFT ) initially reported a jaw-dropping 500 basis point expansion in its adjusted earnings margin for 2024. The market erupted with enthusiasm, propelling Lyft's ( NASDAQ:LYFT ) shares to stratospheric heights, with an over 60% surge in extended trading. However, the euphoria was short-lived as reality dealt a harsh blow – the correct figure stood at a mere 50 basis points, a fraction of the initially announced increase.
Chief Financial Officer Erin Brewer's admission of the error during the earnings call punctured the bubble of optimism that had enveloped investors. Yet, despite the correction, Lyft ( NASDAQ:LYFT ) managed to retain a significant portion of its gains, a testament to the underlying strength of its performance.
Behind the scenes, Lyft's financials tell a compelling story of resilience and growth. The company defied expectations by swinging from a staggering $416.5 million loss to a remarkable $222.4 million profit in full-year adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA). This turnaround underscores Lyft's ability to navigate challenges and capitalize on opportunities in an ever-evolving market landscape.
Analysts at TD Cowen echoed this sentiment, highlighting Lyft's fourth-quarter revenue beat driven by robust gross bookings. Additionally, Lyft's EBITDA guidance surpassed expectations, further bolstering investor confidence. In response, TD Cowen raised their target price on the stock, reflecting a bullish outlook on Lyft's future prospects.
Despite the turbulence caused by the forecasting error, Lyft's performance remains a beacon of strength in the competitive ride-hailing industry. The company's ability to adapt and innovate in the face of adversity cements its position as a formidable player in the market.
Looking ahead, investors will undoubtedly scrutinize Lyft's future earnings releases with heightened scrutiny, mindful of the potential for discrepancies. However, amidst the volatility lies an opportunity for those willing to ride the waves of uncertainty, betting on Lyft's continued resilience and growth trajectory.
UBER rising after VWAP bounce LONGUBER on a 30 minute time frame chart crossed over an anchored VWAP about January 25 and
topped January 30th then retested the slowly rising mean anchored VWAP in a double bottom
fashion on the following day. The relative strength indicator is in the 65-75 range and the zero
lag MACD cycling mostly above the horizontal zero level. I see UBER as suitably setup for
a swing trade long when it is near to the bottom of the support trendline in the ascending
megaphone pattern.
Can UBER breakthrough its all time high?UBER on the weekly chart has been touching the all time high
( set nearly two years ago ) since mid-December. The relative buying volume has had some
spikes. the MACD suggests a line cross above the histogram and so some bearish tendencies.
If UBER can get over its all-time high and retest it from above another leg higher seems to be a
very likely scenario as buyers jump into the action chasing the price. This will be especially true
if the general market gets some good trending up. This goes on the watch list with an alert for
a new all-time high.
Lyft if survives the recession.NASDAQ:LYFT
Looks like Lyft at -2.2PE and 3.32 market cap is really undervalued.
If this company survives the upcoming recession, then it is going to return massive gains.
Huge gaps, it follows technicals and imagining the future of self driving cars around 2026, this stock looks very attractive.(only if they embrace.)
DCA is best option, leaps are also best option if the premium is cheap.
