Robinhood Dives Into Election Betting, Its Ambition Might be BigRobinhood has just launched election contracts, allowing users to trade on the outcome of the 2024 U.S. presidential election between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump.
The new contracts rolled out to a limited number of customers on October 28. Customers enable margin and options trading and need to be approved for a Robinhood Derivatives account.
With contracts set at $1.00 for correct predictions and $0.00 for incorrect, the payouts will be determined post-election certification in early 2025.
Contracts are available only for Yes positions, except that a No position can be placed to close out an existing Yes position. Customers may not simultaneously hold a Yes position for both candidates.
This launch follows recent regulatory developments, such as the D.C. Circuit's approval for Kalshi and Interactive Brokers to offer similar contracts.
While the CFTC voiced concerns about election integrity, the court permitted Kalshi to move forward, opening the door for Robinhood.
I don’t think Robinhood cares much about making money off Election contracts a week before the election — I think they are going for something much, much bigger…which is a marketplace to bet on anything, marking a potential shift beyond traditional stock and crypto markets.
In my view, this signals a strategic pivot for Robinhood toward a broader, all-encompassing platform where users may eventually wager on global events, similar to derivative markets.
Paired with recent rollouts like index options, futures, and a new trading platform, Robinhood’s rapid innovation rate is noteworthy.
Their agility demonstrates a keen ability to stay relevant in an evolving financial landscape, and if successful, this could redefine event-based trading.
Will this direction lead to a major expansion beyond traditional asset classes? Robinhood’s progress here will be intriguing to watch.
Robinhood is showing some impressive innovation here, and if this new product performs well, it could really boost the company’s diversification.
But back to the stock itself—after a 126% jump year-to-date, is now still a good time to buy?
Technically, In the long term, the current stock price is in an upward trend, but in the short term, the price has reached the upper edge of the bullish channel, making it susceptible to be rejected for a pullback. Furthermore, compared to the previous increases, the recent uptrend momentum has significantly weakened, further confirming the high risk of a short-term pullback.
Moreover, according to historical patterns, before each pullback in this uptrend, there tends to be a KDJ bearish divergence. The reemergence of this divergence currently suggests inadequate upward momentum, indicating that a short-term pullback in prices may occur at any time.
Therefore, although the Robinhood's presidential election contracts is highly favorable, from a rational perspective, it is advisable to entry after a short-term pullback.

HOOD | Robinhood Markets - Bullish Harmonic PatternHOOD | Robinhood Markets - Bullish Harmonic Pattern
As we all have seen the stock market is suffering losses for a long
period of time and it is barely finding the bottom.
However, for many, this could be also a wonderful opportunity despite the
the fact that the price can stay in very low zones for a long period of time.
However, related to the economic perspective the U.S economy is very strong
and there is no reason for the stocks not to begin the recovery.
Yes, it is dangerous to buy now but not impossible.
In my opinion, HOOD is undervalued for the moment and the price reaction
at the Harmonic pattern, completion showed to be true.
After any small pullback HOOD could be a good buy opportunity.
Targets:
🎯 9.50
🎯 10.50
Thank you and Good Luck!

HOOD earnings in 5 daysI expect a great quarter from HOOD after they listed SHIB.
I remember the substantial increase in revenues came after the DOGE listing. This time is SHIB.
But they also have great business strategies:
Robinhood Markets acquired Ziglu Ltd., a London-based crypto and payments company, targeting international expansion.
After they recently listed SHIB on their platform, Robinhood plans to offer 24/7 trading to its customers too.
Traditional market hours run from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m., nut Robinhood already offered extended trading starting at 9 a.m. and ending at 6 p.m. and they recently announced a new extension, from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m.
Robinhood could be the Millennial and Gen-Z ‘Schwab’, said a Morgan Stanley analyst.
In the chart you can clearly see the uptrend with a $19 price target.
Looking forward to read your opinion about it.

HOOD Robinhood hyper-extended hoursWith ‘hyper-extended hours’, Robinhood wants to make stock trading available more hours of the day!
I think that is the future of trading, 24/7, or just something from the past that we need to revive. “Continuous trading,” in which orders are executed when they’re received, didn’t take hold until around 1871.
Robinhood has 22.5 million users with a median account balance of just $240, while Interactive Brokers has 607,000 users with 240K median account balance. the idea is that HOOD`s users are young people that for now don`t have enough money, but once they will get a job or earn more, the app will keep its userbase and they will most likely have thousands or maybe tens of thousands in their account.
$18.70 resistance is an easy upside in my opinion.
