PG&E CORP 1D BULL FLAGBull Flags are a Range patter & they are repeatable trading chart patterns. Bull Flags are a descending chart pattern that will have a directional bias (Long) depending on the previous incoming trend. Each chart pattern will have defining trendlines of the support/resistance levels creating the pattern. What ever time frame you are trading this chart pattern, wait for a candle close outside of the trendline in the direction of the breakout candle. (Our time frame preference is the Daily chart). Add volume indicator - Volume is the amount of $ that went into a particular candle or in Forex the # of trades that took place. Add ATR indicator - Volatility is the amount of price movement that occurred. Use the ATR to measure the price movement. When you see descending Volume bars and descending ATR line (which indicates volatility) this shows a dis-interest in traders to invest in this pair creating consolidation which creates the chart pattern. Trade Management after there is a breakout candle close. 1 - Position size (compare volume bar to volume ma line). a - Breakout candle must be 100% of volume average for a full position size. b - If 75% of volume average then ½ position size. (To find 75% of Volume look at the charts volume settings – divide smaller # into larger # = 75%+) If not 75% then stand aside from the trade. 2 – If candle breaks out of a trendline, 15m before the close of the day prepare your buy/sell order. Enter two trades. 1st trade will have a SL & TP. It will close automatically when the 1st TP is hit. 2nd trade only has a SL and will be allowed to run. When 1st TP is hit move the SL to breakeven. Look at ATR and prepare SL at 1.5 of ATR. Prepare 1st trade TP at 1 of ATR. 3 - SL for both trades will be 1.5 x ATR. 4 - 1st trade TP will be 1 x ATR. 5 - No TP on 2nd trade – letting profit run and adjusting SL to follow price. 6 - When 1st TP hit – move 2nd trade SL to breakeven. 7 - Adjust the 2nd trade SL to follow price. *8 – After Breakout candle – if price closes back into chart pattern close trade don't wait for SL to be hit. *9 - When breakout candle is more than 1 ATR from breakout candle open. a - Enter 1st trade at candle close with ½ position size. b - Enter 2nd trade with a pending limit order that is 1 ATR of breakout candle open. c – Price should pullback to that pending limit order for 2nd trade. d – If Price returns back into chart pattern close trade before SL is hit.

PCG thesisThis is not investment advice just the ramblings of an insane trader. I call this a thesis because its been 3 years in the making. Anyway, when it dipped below 4 the second time I became very interested because "utility monopoly", cant go tits up unless broken up by super gavin. So I bought in the red circle. Then sold in the green circle, the blue X is where I fucked up by not holding half my shares and playing with house money. But profit is profit and I'm happy until tomorrow. What happens tomorrow? Friday June 19th? Not only is it Juneteenth it is the day that PCG will likely finally emerge from a 3 year saga of almost bleeding to death in bankruptcy. Why is this important? Well there are a lot of factors at play here: 1. Victims of the fire that caused the bankruptcy: This class is interesting not only did PCG trick them into partially taking stock as compensation for their damages/loved ones deaths the $13.5 billion fund plus stock only goes to victims who didn't already have an insurance claim that was fulfilled. The victims had a sub clause that in order for the stock to be a viable payout PCG had to plead guilty... I mean this is a total shit show. 2. Monopoly status of PCG: PCG is a monopoly no way its not and california was not cool with that; Dear gavin was looking to break it up because of public outrage over what happened, then coronavirus happened and that poor man well he got to wipe the sweat off his brow and take a breather. Not only did he not have to care about PCG anymore he had a greater threat that would distract from the ineptitude present in their inability to do anything about PCGs size. Now this monopoly status and the combination of providing a service that literally everyone needs means that PCG rakes in tons of cash like fucking truck loads. Despite having some really bad quarters of the past 3 years because of wildfire payouts they still have managed to not only stay in business but hold onto a decent cash reserve that will allow them to coast out of bankruptcy with a smaller debt pile than expected. 3. Pensions: California has great pension plans for state and county workers, one of the best features of those pension plans is having PCG stock in them both common stock and preferred stock none of which have been printing dividends for 3 years. This is where the sweat in Gavin's brow comes into play not only did he dodge the monopoly bullet he dodged the retirement float debt bullet. PCG will most likely reinstate their dividend on the preferred stock before the year is out and it will probably come back on the common stock soon there after in 2021. This means that the pensions will have better float than the past three years. And the pensions will likely be buying this stock in gurney to make sure they don't miss the boat on the increase and potential to leverage the positions. 4. Dividends: PCG dividends were only cut because the bankruptcy judge wanted them to be used instead to payout victims, once they leave bankruptcy the wildfire account is established and populated with cash and stock handouts. They will be looking to reissue dividends to the public again to gain a more favorable valuation. 5. Employees: In response to the bankruptcy/wildfire demands PCG had to ramp up hirings so they could go out and identify poles and equipment that was theirs and so they could trim trees across the state. That's right PCG didn't even know what poles and equipment they owned across the pacific northwest, its beyond irresponsible but who cares necessity monopoly. These employees will likely be removed from the on going operations of the company once they emerge from bankruptcy since they will no longer be held to excessively stringent standard practices. They are coming into a situation where utilities are being held to more safety guidelines but SCE was not being held to the same standard PCG was while in bankruptcy so expect them to get a little more lax and have some layoffs in the near future to increase profits a little bit. Lastly not only does this create a favorable position and potential growth situation for the stock lets not forget that the fed is printing free money right now. Any debt that PCG takes on will have minimal impact on its operating business and Hedge funds and other institutional holders will be looking to capitalize on this forward looking idea. I personally feel like rockets will result from this but I cant be sure. Is this going to be shopify? Fuck no, but at 10.80 a share this shit is way way way under valued. We are talking about a multi state power monopoly that issues an essential service to people and gets paid for that service regardless of whether or not the actual homeowner can afford it. The only real reason why the price is depressed is because of the potential and literal gavin threat of it being broken up into multiple pieces and sold off. But now that the bankruptcy is going to end the antitrust situation will be harder to pursue, and corona virus made people all but forget this whole situation. That's my two cents take it or leave it.

PCG Shortening + Long Strategy PotentialsRight now, I own some PCG stock so I may be bias, and as always nothing I say should be taking at face value. That being said, the negative correlations have to do with the PCG bankruptcy reports, as well as the time period going on (we are in the coronavirus era as we are seeing negative correlations). If you look at it from a simple "supply and demand" perspective, the demand for many utilities and gas is going down. This is especially true given many mandatory stay at home orders. People already known about PCG's bankruptcy timeline for a while now, and this was still when everyone was calling positives. I believe short term, it does have the potential of a breakout at $12, but there is also a negative long term potential as well. Business-wise and investment-wise, I am not sure it is looking good for PCG, and many other companies out are disrupting the industry.
