$SNOW (Snowflake) | Long Analysis/ThesisNYSE:SNOW is primed for upside with a strong support level formed around $109 (indicated on chart). We are expecting these 3 upside price levels to be significant points of resistance in the coming weeks, however the $120 strike options will prosper as we approach the $145 level and will be the first to get cut. Remember: This is a great name that got unfairly beaten down. My good friend StockSavvyShay (on X) has written extensively as to how they've improved their business. These are some of his main thoughts to consider: Snowflake is enhancing its governance capabilities with Snowflake Horizon, a comprehensive cross-cloud governance model designed to simplify the management of complex data ecosystems. This solution offers integrated compliance, security, privacy, interoperability, and access features, allowing customers to efficiently manage data across various platforms and teams. Key enhancements include: - Achieving additional compliance certifications such as the UK's Cyber Essentials Plus and the FBI's CJIS Security Policy, ensuring top-tier security and privacy for public sector data. Introducing Data Quality Monitoring, which simplifies the tracking and improvement of data quality metrics. - Launching a Data Lineage UI that visualizes the impact of upstream changes on downstream data, enhancing data management transparency. - Developing Differential Privacy Policies to protect sensitive data without compromising individual record security. - Enhancing data classification with custom classifiers and a new UI-based workflow, supporting better data organization. - Rolling out the Trust Center for centralized security and compliance monitoring, helping to reduce costs and prevent risk escalations. In addition, Snowflake is improving cost management with a new Cost Management Interface, which provides a unified view of spend metrics across clouds and regions. This tool offers greater visibility into account-level usage, configurable spend views, and actionable recommendations to optimize resource allocation. These advancements strengthen Snowflake's position as a leader in data governance and cost management, providing customers with effective tools to streamline operations and enhance efficiency. RISKS: Convertible debt back in September leads me to believe that they are willing to decelerate growth and buy back their stock at a hefty multiple - this does give me cause for concern. However, the fact that price has held - despite this news gives the power to the bulls.

Snowflake: Please turn!Snowflake has experienced a setback in recent days. However, as it was able to hold above the support line at $107.41, our primary scenario remains intact. Thus, we continue to see the price in the turquoise-colored wave b, which should initially bring a (corrective) increase. Only after the high has been established should larger sell-offs come knocking, completing the wave (2) correction in green. However, we consider it 33% likely that the share has already been working on the final stage of this corrective movement since May. This scenario, which will be activated by a fall below the support level of $107.41, would call off the upward swing accordingly.

Snowflake (SNOW): Potential Bullish Flip on the Horizon?In our last analysis on Snowflake, we were focused around the MOAT level, which was lost after the analysis. However, we respected the HVN edge low quite well, and since then, we haven't seen any significant new lows. If Snowflake can hold its current level and avoid retesting lower zones, we could potentially see a flip in the market structure toward a bullish trend. If this scenario plays out, we’ll be actively looking for long setups for SNOW. We'll keep you informed on whether this bullish scenario materializes or if lower prices prevail.

Snowflake’s Stock Dips Despite Great Q2 Results: What's WrongSnowflake Inc. (NYSE: NYSE:SNOW ), the cloud data-warehouse software company that has been a favorite among investors, recently reported its Q2 earnings for fiscal year 2025, surprising analysts with better-than-expected results. Despite this, the stock took a significant hit, dropping 8% in extended trading on Wednesday. But what led to this sharp decline, and what does it mean for the future of Snowflake? A Strong Quarter Overshadowed by Growing Pains Snowflake (NYSE: NYSE:SNOW ) reported Q2 revenue of $868.8 million, up from $674.0 million a year earlier, easily surpassing Wall Street’s estimates of $851.6 million. Adjusted earnings per share (EPS) came in at $0.19, also beating the consensus of $0.16. The company’s product revenue, a critical metric, was $829.3 million, just above expectations. Yet, despite these strong figures, the market reaction was overwhelmingly negative. So, what went wrong? The company’s net loss widened, and rising costs became a focal point for investors. The broader concern is that Snowflake’s growth might be losing momentum, as reflected by a less-than-stellar product revenue beat. The company’s guidance for the rest of the fiscal year was positive, with a slight increase in its full-year outlook. However, this was not enough to assuage fears about its ability to maintain high growth rates amidst increasing competition and operational challenges. The Falling Wedge Breakout: A Technical Perspective From a technical analysis standpoint, Snowflake’s stock recently broke out of a falling wedge pattern, a bullish signal that typically indicates a potential upward price movement. However, the 8% drop in extended trading suggests that this breakout might be tested in the coming days. Investors should keep an eye on key support levels. The stock may find buying interest around $123, corresponding to its June swing low. If this level fails to hold, a further decline to $108 or even $95 could be on the horizon, where the stock might attract more buyers. Snowflake (NYSE: NYSE:SNOW ) stock is down 13% in Thursday's premarket trading this move is really bad for Snowflake (NYSE: NYSE:SNOW ) stock as the stock will start the day with a weak momentum from its Relative Strength Index (RSI) of 60.71 which was Wednesday's RSI close. with the stock down by 13% in premarket trading, it will place the RSI at 52 which is bad as it will approach the oversold region leading to more sellout despite earnings beat. CEO Transition and Security Concerns Add to Investor Jitters Adding to the uncertainty is Snowflake’s recent leadership change. The company appointed a new CEO in February, which can often lead to strategic shifts that make investors nervous. Moreover, a cyberattack in May that compromised data from high-profile clients like AT&T and Live Nation has not helped restore confidence. Why Analysts Are Still Bullish on Snowflake (NYSE: NYSE:SNOW ) Despite the post-earnings slide, some analysts remain optimistic about Snowflake’s future. JMP Securities, while lowering its price target from $235 to $190, maintained a Market Outperform rating. The analysts highlighted Snowflake’s strong core business, particularly in financial services and tech sectors, and its potential for profitable growth with a projected $3.36 billion in product revenue for fiscal 2025. Snowflake’s long-term prospects look promising, especially as the company continues to innovate and roll out new AI products. The market for cloud data services is expected to grow substantially, and Snowflake is well-positioned to capitalize on this trend. What’s Next for Snowflake? The next few weeks will be critical for Snowflake (NYSE: NYSE:SNOW ) as it navigates the post-earnings fallout. Investors will be watching closely to see if the stock can hold key support levels or if it will continue to slide. On the operational front, the company needs to address concerns about rising costs and demonstrate that it can sustain high growth rates in a competitive market. In summary, while Snowflake’s Q2 results were strong, the market’s reaction highlights underlying concerns about its future growth trajectory. For now, cautious optimism seems to be the best approach, as the company works to regain investor confidence and prove that it can continue to lead in the cloud data space.

Snowflake Beats Q2 Product Revenue Above Wall Street Estimates Snowflake ( NYSE:SNOW ) expects strong Q2 as AI push boosts demand for cloud services. The company forecasted second-quarter product revenue above Wall Street estimates and raised its expectations for the year, on strong demand for its cloud-based services amid a surge in use of generative artificial intelligence. Shares rose 4% after the bell as the data cloud analytics company also said it plans to acquire technology assets and hire 35 employees from TruEra, an AI observability platform. The company had in April launched Snowflake Arctic, a large language model that draws from massive amounts of text to generate responses to queries and is optimized for complex enterprise workloads. Companies are increasingly moving from traditional to cloud-based solutions, looking to integrate digital and more cost-effective processes since the pandemic, benefiting cloud-related services firms such as Snowflake ( NYSE:SNOW ). Snowflake ( NYSE:SNOW ) forecast product revenue in the range of $805 million to $810 million for the second quarter, above analysts' average estimate of $785 million, according to LSEG data. For 2025, Snowflake ( NYSE:SNOW ) expects product revenue at $3.30 billion, up from a prior forecast of $3.25 billion. For the first quarter ended April 30, Snowflake ( NYSE:SNOW ) posted a 34% rise in product revenue to $789.6 million, beating expectations of $747.9 million. Total revenue came in at $828.7 million. Product revenue, which makes up the bulk of Snowflake's business, will be $805 million to $810 million in the period ending in July, the company said Wednesday in a statement. Analysts, on average, predicted $787.5 million, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. The company also raised its fiscal year product sales forecast to $3.3 billion from $3.25 billion. This is the first full quarter that Sridhar Ramaswamy, a former Google executive and co-founder of search startup Neeva, has been Snowflake's chief executive officer. He needs to reaccelerate growth at the maker of cloud-based analytics software while fending off competition from rivals including Databricks Inc. While the outlook was stronger than expected, it still represents slowing revenue growth and may not appease investors who are bearish on the stock. Snowflake ( NYSE:SNOW ) CEO Sridhar Ramaswamy has hinted at collaboration with AI giant Nvidia in a recent interview with CNBC's Jim Cramer. Ramaswamy teased new product announcements at the company's Data Cloud Summit conference in June, which will feature a talk with Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang. He said that Snowflake is "super excited by the promise of accelerated computing" and that the company's enterprise customer base is growing. He also mentioned that Snowflake's AI offerings can analyze customer feedback data to help determine automated responses to questions.

The stock is up 7.20% in Thursday's Pre-market trading.

Snowflake - going to miss the earnings?!Today, Snowflake’s earnings are due, and it’s an important event to watch. Looking at the stock’s history since its debut on the New York Stock Exchange in September 2020, we can identify a crucial zone that initially acted as support but has since turned into a resistance zone. We’ve seen attempts to break above this resistance at around $210, but these have been unsuccessful, with the price falling back below this level leaving behind an earnings gap. Currently, we have what can be referred to as the "Mother-of-all-Trend-Lines." These are two trendlines running parallel, forming a channel that has been critical in maintaining the chart’s structure. This channel is crucial for holding the overall trend of the chart. For Snowflake to realize its upward potential, it needs to sustain these trendlines and break above the resistance zone at $210. Successfully flipping this resistance into support, particularly with the support of the high-volume node, is essential for a push upwards, unlike what happened at the beginning of 2024. While there is significant upside potential for Snowflake, it will take time. The stock must not only hold the "Mother-of-all-Trend-Lines" but also convincingly break and maintain the $210 resistance level. A closer look at Snowflake reveals that the high-volume node (HVN) plays a critical role in the chart's overall structure. The upper edge of this HVN has worked with the resistance zone, serving as a strong resistance point. Meanwhile, the lower edge has acted as a solid support line, holding up the price on four occasions. We could see another test of the Point-of-Control (POC) before potentially moving higher. There's a significant earnings gap of approximately 14% that needs to be closed. According to typical charting techniques, all gaps are eventually closed; the question is only when. We believe that this gap will be at least tested. Whether it will be fully closed depends on if the resistance zone around $210 can be flipped into support. If Snowflake fails to flip this resistance, we might only see a gap test followed by another sell-off. The situation remains uncertain, so we plan to stay on the sidelines for now, closely monitoring the developments. We will observe how the stock behaves around the POC and the resistance zone to determine our next move.

SNOWFLAKE $SNOW | Potential Scenarios and Key ObservationsNYSE:SNOW Currently, SNOW is in an upward channel but has experienced strong movement to the downside. It is now trading below the 200 SMA trendline. It's important to note that SNOW is currently oversold, and an RSI divergence has occurred within this oversold area. My indicator also reveals that shortly after an oversold RSI divergence occurred, the price reacted strongly to it. Nevertheless, I would like to see one of two possible next moves before considering a long position. Scenario 1: SNOW rebounds, tests the 200 SMA, gets rejected, and heads towards the bullish gap below the current price. In this area, I would like to see a strong reaction, possibly indicated by a significant spike in volume accompanied by a rejection candle. Scenario 2: SNOW falls directly into the bullish gap below and strongly rejects this area. In this scenario, I would like to see the gap closed by a candle with an above-average wick rejection and a spike in volume to confirm buyer commitment. In terms of the bigger picture, although the stock price is in a small upward trend, movements in both directions have similar strength. Volume spikes occur when the price reaches either the upper or lower level of the channel.

The rallies that have occured in the past from touching the support line of channel have shown this sign as well. FOllowed by a Golden cross, where 21 EMA maintains its position above 50 SMA. Look for this signal to appear. There is also potential for another test of Support on the lower border of channel. Keep this in mind as it is seen when you look at the previous data.

Comparative Analysis with Peer Salesforce (CRM.N): Snowflake's revenue forecast shortfall echoes a similar sentiment observed in its peer, Salesforce ( NYSE:CRM ), which also forecasted fiscal 2025 revenue below estimates.

Conclusion: Snowflake's ( NYSE:SNOW ) downward revision of its first-quarter revenue forecast, coupled with the appointment of a new chief executive, signifies a period of transition and adaptation for the company.
