Semiconductors
$SOX looking very bearishMajor sell set up on the weekly in $SOX as previously posted this sector has been
extremely strong, now looks to be making a possible major top
MU - Is it just a meme?If you randomly picked a few readers of r/WallStreetBets, they'd probably tell you all about Micron (MU) & AMD and how they have fantastic potential. Focusing in on MU: is it going to live up to the hype?
From a technical analysis point of view, I'm inclined to agree! A very textbook flag/triangle pattern is forming - these patterns are generally trend continuation patterns. The semiconductor industry is booming. MU put together a very impressive sequence of earnings beats.
All in all, I believe we should see a breakout very soon!
Lam Research - Earnings trifecta but stock down?Lam Research (LRCX) delivered strongly in their Q4 earnings report, but the stock has since tumbled almost 10%.
The market for semiconductors is not going anywhere...
Target: give it to your grandchildren, or at least until processors using silicon fall out of favor.
SOXX and SOXL are also good ways to get some exposure to LRCX and the semiconductor market.
Semi's in major trouble$SOX is about to fail hard and all in it, major position is soxs and yes even short NVDA
MX MU AMD etc,
$SOX daily sell set uphigher price attempts with lower technicals = sell set up, if/when this drops below next major fib 61.8 on the RSI
expect lower values in the sector and lower prices in semi's across the board
SOXL (and TXN) at a discountSOXL is a 3x leveraged ETF, whose top 5 holdings are TXN, NVDA, QCOM, INTC, and AVGO. Earlier today, TXN endured a massive sell-off following their unimpressive earnings report, resulting in a hard drop in price for SOXL, as well. However, I don't expect TXN to stay down past this trading week, and when it rebounds, SOXL will be along for the ride. The semiconductors industry is red hot.
SOXL Semiconductors x3 ETF LONG - Earnings rally starts: ~%30..!JAN. Earnings rally is starting off with INTC.
Semiconductors are expected to beat estimated earnings.
Good R:R, keep your SL tight.

MU buy opertunityThe lord and savior pitchfork presents a great buying opportunity before it is bound for a breakout within the week.
Micron Holding SupportMicron Technology (ticker: MU) is one of the largest manufacturers memory and storage solutions. The company is currently benefitting from a significant uptick in demand for its products and has seen an explosion in revenue and profits in recent quarters. Due to our technology loving society data usage, and therefore storage, has been growing off the chart. These are some massively bullish trends. Looking at the chart MU seems to be holding at its floor of support. Watch for the stock to rally back to its all time highs in the coming weeks.
A Breakout Above $13.31 Could Cause a Strong Move Higher - $AMDWatch for a breakout above the Blue Line $XSD $SMH $XLK $QQQ #Semiconductors #trading
AMAT at Long Term ResistanceAny new high should create a 3rd Monthly RSI diversion peak. Should be a struggle to break through. There was a reversal spike on the Daily chart for blowout earnings. Also, see a monthly chart of SOX and TXN for similarities.
NVDA: The cat with 9 livesIf this cat is dead I have 0 faith in being a bull...anywhere. $170s is a gift from the street that I will accept if/when extended to me. Otherwise I may miss out on the entry and fomo into the next pump on a hourly higher high and low.

Bonus Earnings: Sep 26: Micron - The Balloon is Getting FullCompany is up over 56% YTD on solid demand.
Stiff competition, however, will be a drag on guidance -
I expect a lackluster guidance revision and a slight correction in share price.
$30 PT through November 2017.
Micron is a stellar investment- Broke above the mid line of weekly Bollinger.
- September 26 is next ER.
- There was unnecessary fear around cycle peak. Smart money loaded in while weak investors lost money.
- This cycle is more diversified and will last through 2018.
- Most analysts are bullish.
- Last ER resulted in significant drop. Next ER, I expect at least a 10% pop.
- Price target: $36-38 after ER.
- Williams R will fluctuate between 0 and -20 for a while.
Looking for a Better Entry PointShikou span has crashed into the price at the $164.00 line.
The Senkou spans of the cloud are starting to tighten.
The squeeze indicator is on with slight downward pressure.
Vol is a trending slightly lower.
Bulls feel very complacent at the moment, and the stock could stray under its lower trend line and hit the cloud.
Next day or two will be choppy. True Bear vs Bull.
