Shortcovering

Intel - Stop the bleeding!Hello Traders and Investors, today I will take a look at Intel . -------- Explanation of my video analysis: In the beginning of 2023 Intel stock retested a multi year long horizontal structure at the $26 level. Here Intel created bullish confirmation and took off, creating a crazy rally of +100% within a couple of months. Then we saw a false breakout towards the upside which was followed by an incredible sell off. At the moment Intel is retesting support so we might see a short term short covering rally. -------- Keep your long term vision, Philip (BasicTrading)

Is A Short-Covering Rally in Corn Imminent? There’s no beating around the bush - the fundamentals for corn remain bearish ahead of Thursday’s USDA report. Last month, USDA caught many by surprise revising ‘23 corn yields to record-highs of 177.3 bushels per acre. Since then, corn futures have continuously grinded lower. But, could a short-covering rally be in the offing soon? Per the last CFTC Commitments of Traders report, managed money funds have amassed a net-short position of 280,151 contracts (combined futures & options). That represents the largest net-short position in corn since 2019. While corn has continued making new lows, each of the last 4 contract lows have come in conjunction with less and less conviction - namely bullish divergence on the standard 14-day RSI. Moreover, the volume profile has gradually softened since the January USDA report. Thus, it's possible that all of the bears have already sold. The first step in a short-covering rally is getting bears to stop selling - and a friendly WASDE report on Thursday bares the potential to make that happen.

AMD: Key Reversals, and Short-Covering RalliesAMD has been in a bear market since December 1st, 2022. For those of you who took a short position, you have had to endure three major short-covering rallies. The first short-covering rally which began on December 12th may have made you reconsider your decision to short in the first place, and you probably got out at some point. But when is the best time to get out and possibly go long? Identifying key reversals can be helpful in these situations. In a bear market, a key reversal is when the price makes a new low but closes on or near the high (the opposite is the case in a bull market). A bar chart can help you see this better. I've placed black arrows under the obvious key reversals on the daily chart. The orange arrow shows a key reversal that may not fit the definition exactly since the price closed just above the middle and not very close to the high. These rallies only lasted a couple of days each, and since the key reversal can't be identified until the end of the first day, the opportunity to make gains with a long position only lasted one day. An opportunity to go long has just presented itself on January 6th with a key reversal. I'm expecting a rally on January 9th. The question is, will this rally continue to the upper resistance line, or fizzle out in a day or two and retest the support it bounced off? I'll be watching.

Every rally starts with a short coverPlatinum has been trending lower for more than four months, the March peak, and is finally showing signs of a potential bottom. Yesterday's whipsaw helped complete the right shoulder of an inverse head and shoulders pattern. Upon doing that, it also back-tested the trend line from its June peak, holding it as support perfectly. The large range consolidation over the last three days created a flag-like pattern, brining a coiling of strength to help pierce through the 21-day moving average this morning. The cherry on top is that Managed Money, hedge funds, have been net-short Platinum. This tells us that upon strength there will be short-covering. Not only in Platinum but SIlver and Gold too. In fact, Managed Money went net-short Gold as of last Tuesday for only the second instance in history. The first was at the exact 2015 low and the second was in the later innings of the 2018 sell-off. Managed Money going net-short metals is a contra indicator.

$HOOD monstrous bounce coming, falling wedge forming here.$HOOD looking for a very aggressive bounce out of this falling wedge setup, the stock has declined from 85 trading at 18 with shorts piled in the sp will be quick to squeeze higher out of demand we're forming. Still in range so be patient but when it gets going im targeting a move to 25 quickly, from there we can base and expect higher in my opinion. Feb calls a safe bet, of closer exp when we break the wedge. Can go further out to play leaps as well.

$TGT incoming bounce on its way, another short covering rallyA big bounce is imminent on $TGT here in the next few days to weeks, the stock has declined significantly in a brief amount of time and is now showing inside candles representing balance, a push over 221 will take us screaming higher. Short covers bring the excess liquidity, strong numbers represented by Target this holiday season is a contributing factor why we will bounce here. Be patient, another big trade is coming. Jan 220/225 calls can work on confirmation candle.

Regular 20% Bull Market drawdown...Traders I know this last move was a surprise to all of us but we need to remember that historically this is normal and very mild. In the last bull market BTC had over 7 20 % or larger drawdowns. Its imperative that markets have shakeouts to reset funding in order to climb to new highs. I posted about 12 hours before the big move down that I felt strongly that money would be moving away from alts and into BTC. Looking at my screens tonight the only thing green is BTC.D. In addition we haven't had 5 down days (red daily bars) since November. I'm calling a surprise move to the upside starting tonight thru tomorrow that catches many off guard. Look for shorts to be liquidated and BTC to be back above 58k climbing back into channel. So many on trading view are calling this middle zone and a horrible entry. Again markets move in the way that frustrates the most people. Now too many are wanting to buy back in near 50k and some even saying 45k. The SHARK is calling for a surprise upside move tonight and tomorrow. Find someone else on this site bold enough to make straight forward predictions publicly when the odds are totally against him. You heard it here first. Follow the SHARK and make money. BRONSON-TheSHARK

BTCUSD - Bear Meat to fuel the next Bull RallyThere is a Bear Flag forming on the short side of things. This should help pull down the RSI, MACD, Stoks, etc. etc. So long as we don't break the multi-year trend line from my other charts and the 20/40 week moving average remains crossed (which it did last night) All these Bears are going to get skinned and their meat used to fuel the next Bull Rally. Not only will the Bulls be buying hand over fist but the shorts will be right there with them doing the same. The next couple of weeks should be exciting ! Good luck! (My weekly update below)
