Macys ( M ) Pre-earnings LongAs can be seen on the 2H chart, Macy's last earnings on June 5th was afavorble beat
resulting in first an uptrend and then a sideways price movement for a month and
a half. Earnings are expected on 8/22/23. Price has had dynamic support at the mean VWAP
anchored in April while the dynamic resistance has been two standard deviations above that
represented by the thin red line. Price is currently midway between resistance and support.
Additional support is the POC line ( with the highest trading volumes ) of the volume profile
beginning at the prior earnings date. Overall I see this as an opportunity to take an options
trade with an expiration a couple of weeks after expected earnings to strike the thin red line
of dynamic resistance at 17 expiring September 1st. Depending on price action in the days
leading up to earnings I may take off half the contracts if they are in decent profit while
letting the other half run through the post earnings period figuring that M could repeat
and jump after earnings.
