Shorting

Dark Pool Buy Zones and Sell Short Risk: LCIDDark Pool buy zones tend to provide strong support for stocks running down. If a stock violates the lows of such support, the rebound tends to come quickly, erasing any sell short profits. This young EV auto manufacturing company is near its IPO price range, which is strong support. The retest of the lows of this bottoming action doesn't show much downside potential for a strong sell short. There is risk that LCID may gap or run down but then reverse quickly and move back up. Whipsaw reversal candles near Dark Pool buy zones can cause big losses for short sellers at this level.

Why is short interest in Best Buy less than its peers? What is the short interest in consumer electronics retailer Best Buy (NYSE: BBY) ahead of its second-quarter financial results on August 30? On the last trading day, Best Buy had roughly 12 million shares in short interest, reflecting 5.97% of its outstanding shares. By midday Aug. 19, 5.5 million Best Buy shares are available to be shorted, according to management consulting company Fintel. BBY stock dipped nearly 4% at close of trading Aug. 19 and had another marginal decline at the start of this week. The company’s stock was almost in the green last week, after peaking at $86.35 on Tuesday, and creating a new multi-month high. However, BBY eventually closed lower on the week thanks in part to the aforementioned 4% drop. Keeping off the most shorted list Despite the challenges it had to endure, Best Buy remains absent from the list of most shorted stocks. The list of stocks on the most-shorted list in August, include Intercept Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: ICPT), Bed Bath & Beyond (NASDAQ: BBBY), MicroStrategy (NASDAQ: MSTR), WeWork (NYSE: WE), Upstart (NASDAQ: UPST), and Beyond Meat (NASDAQ: BYND). All the above stocks have short interest above 35.00% of its outstanding shares. Best Buy's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 25.57%, which means it has far less short interest than most of its peers. Second-quarter outlook Like other retailers, the company is sailing in murky waters given current macroeconomic conditions. High inflation rate, interest hikes and even energy cost could add more challenges to these companies. For Best Buy, some think the company's revenue and profitability are on-track to recovery after record-lows in the first quarter, setting the stage for a long-term rebound after bottoming in July. However, Best Buy, may not be so bullish in its own outlook. BBY is slated to announce second-quarter results on August 30 and it expects to report a roughly 13% decline in comparable sales and an approximately 7.5% hike in revenue compared with the pre-pandemic second quarter of fiscal-year 2022. Best Buy CEO Corie Barry said, "as high inflation has continued and consumer sentiment has deteriorated, customer demand within the consumer electronics industry has softened even further, leading to Q2 financial results below the expectations we shared in May." The company also plans to suspend share buybacks but assured the payment of quarterly dividends.

Kiss of Death at the Weekly ChartHere is my first idea published after years in tradingview. There's a clearly "kiss of death" printed on the weekly chart at the 200 Simple Moving Average. Also, remember that its the first time in the history of Bitcoin that it closed under that 200 sma (with the body of the candle). I don't know (keeping in mind a lot of indicators which I use) if the bottom is in or not (and I doubt that 99,9% know it) but this is a very negative signal. So for next days, maybe weeks, i'll remain shorting this market. I'm listening for more ideas related.

ETHEREUM WEEKLY GRAPH ANALYSIS Chart is on the daily: We will see positive jumps and positive movement as consolidation continues. After consolidation, the bear market will continue to go down. We will see more of these "false" jumps and consolidation patterns but ultimately, everything will keep on going down. Ethereum must brake $3,000 to remain bullish, if not, we will see another $700-850 range. Trade at your own risk and do your own research my friends! I would starting your positions soon once you see an indefinite bear pattern.
