Square

Square - Going to Bikini Bottom ⬇-The stock market was having a generally negative day on Monday, with the S&P 500 down by about 0.5% at 2:30 p.m. EDT. However, fintech giant Square (NYSE:SQ) was a major underperformer, down by 5% on the day. -The primary reason for the decline is that Square announced plans to offer $2 billion in senior notes (aka debt) in a private placement to institutional investors. Square plans to use the money for "general corporate purposes." -It's not unusual for selling pressure to be seen when companies unexpectedly add debt to their balance sheets. And considering that the company had $3.7 billion in cash already at the end of the first quarter, this move might have investors scratching their heads. Including debt already on the books, Square will now have about $5 billion in long-term debt, more than five times its debt load at the start of 2020. -With Bitcoin (CRYPTO:BTC) falling sharply over the weekend, companies that have cryptocurrency operations are under additional pressure. Not only does Square provide Bitcoin trading functionality through its Cash App, but it also owns about $360 million in Bitcoin itself. So it's fair to say that at least some of the pressure Square is under is being caused by these headwinds.

From 36 to 250 in a year, SQ is a gift that wont stop giving We just saw a clear double bottom, the pullback into the middle of the 'W' has already begun too, meaning not too long from now, we're gonna see a quick bulish run. The stock's at an ATH and apparently is still destined for more. The OBV is also on a clear rise, another bullish sign Like to spread the message, follow for more and tell me what you think! Ill definetely respond :) _______________ For those new to TA, a double bottom is when a 'W' pattern is formed on the chart, its often followed by a pullback and a bullish run. When the 'W' is upright, its bullish and when its inverted, its bearish

SQUARE - 🚨Attention, it's getting dangerousHello everyone, SQUARE is definitely one of the current hype stocks. Accordingly, the share price has developed well in the past. But everything moves in waves and Square will be no exception. There are some warning signals in the chart that suggest a strong correction. And it is precisely this expectation that I would like to use to determine a nice long-term entry. Chart-technical assessment - The momentum of the trend has clearly cooled down in the weekly chart and is slightly negative according to the MACD indicator. This is also reflected in the fact that no new high was formed in recent weeks. - On the downside, a clear support zone can be identified in the chart (grey box). - Within the supposed top there are two very exciting candlestick reversal formations. 1. evening doji star: A formation of three candles. This formation is not very common, but when it occurs after a strong rally, we should pay close attention to it. The formation represents a strong trend reversal signal with a good hit rate. The top of the Evening Doji-Star formation is considered strong resistance and is located at 283.19 points. 2nd Shooting-Star: A formation from one candle: The Shooting-Star is another trend reversal signal. Moreover, it additionally occurs in the range of the Evening Doji-Star. Conclusion - The chart gives many warning signals that the party at Square is over for the time being. Nevertheless, no decision has been made here yet. - Should Square sustainably overcome the upper side of the current formation at 283 points, a further long movement should be the consequence. - Should Square fall through the lower support, as I expect, I will use the marked zone in the chart as a buying opportunity. This is where many supports and the price target of a sell-off come together. As always, it's "do your own research" - I am not an investment advisor and this analysis reflects only my personal opinion and is not a call to individual action! If you want to support my work I'm happy about a Like & Follow 🙏 Best regards & success! Chartdigger

Head- Shoulder - Knees - & Toes - to $180?I'll be watching SQ closely on Monday pre-market and opening. Long-term, I think Square is a great hold, but there could be a nice dip entry coming our way with the head and shoulders pattern becoming obvious. There is news emerging that Square's cash app has been prone to hackers. There have only been 6 reported incidents according to Yahoo Finance, but if this gets a bit bigger and the stock dips this coming week, we will form a Head-and-Shoulder pattern. As I said, long-term I am very bullish. With NFT's being linked to creative pieces of work, Square's acquisition of Tidal (HOVA!) is gradually starting to make sense. This is clearly a vision Jack Dorsey has -- just seeing that he is selling his first-ever tweet through NFTs. This is great long-term thesis, in my opinion of the company continuing to grow over the next 5-10 years. But, I am personally waiting for a re-entry at a better price. I expect it to come our way soon. Good luck!

Anti-competitive allegation (boo) - $235+ target 2021 (yay)What a juicy entry into Visa. I have worked closely with Visa, and these are some of the big points I think will work in their favour: > Right where the stock was before the pandemic crash in March 2020. What? > Olympic year -- Olympic years are good years for VISA as a TOP partner of the International Olympic Committee. Sure, we are a bit worried about how will the Olympics really look this year -- things seem a bit messy in Japan, but, if Japan can somehow get it together with the vaccines and protocol in time for the Games allowing some tourists in, this could be a good year with definitely stronger anticipated earnings for Sept/Oct earnings call. > Travel and spend -- VISA's main revenue source isn't your domestic spend. Sure, the pandemic has perhaps even surprised VISA, as they reported positive earnings with online transactions and local spend -- but once those boarders open, the spend during international travel is where the bulk of the revenue will emerge from. I feel (and I could be wrong as who knows how safe management wants to play it) -- VISA will have fairly positive guidance during the May earnings report, which will be a big catalyst for the stock to jump and set all-time-high. If not then, I would still hold a position for 2021, because as things get better and people travel, they carry Visa in their pocket. > Cryptos 'r' us + Dividend -- Few months ago VISA announced a Bitcoin based loyalty points program as a new product in select markets. VISA doesn't go "all in", but that's why I like VISA as a less risky yet growth-like stock. It can make strong moves upward, but, also keeps paying a tasty dividend. I had de-risked by taking profits on VISA a few weeks ago. I did miss most of the rally we saw last week, but profit is profit and they still paid me the dividend. I have been looking for a re-entry when I felt the stock cools and a pattern becomes more obvious. BUT WAIT... While this dip is super tempting, I am not going all in just yet. VISA dropped so sharp on allegations of anticompetitive practices, as the department of justice investigates claims that VISA channeled transactions over their own (more expensive) networks for retailers, rather than giving them options to transfer through other networks (which is their legal right and possibly cheaper). What this means is that investors don't like the shock, and decided to take profits. What I will watch for is how the narrative develops over the coming week. If the market is generally recovering and the VISA news has no major follow up, great. If there is more news, we could even get down to $190s. I don't expect the stock to break that support. Good luck traders!

Tips For Buying DipsFirst of all, dips happen all the time. There are always pullbacks in price and they happen for various reasons. Here’s a checklist I quickly wrote down for myself. The chart here shows Square, mostly because it has been on an epic run! Congrats to those who have enjoyed it. I was once a proud owner of this name, but sold after it seemed to get a little "frothy." Feel free to share your thoughts in the comments after reading my tips for buying dips: 1. Always know why you’re buying now and not waiting patiently. Why is this the dip to buy and not another one? Take the time to do all the research you need. 2. You should do enough research to explain why now is the time to buy to anyone. And it should be understandable. Sometimes writing it down helps. Being able to explain it in a simple format is equally important. 3. Have a plan. Know where you will exit if it comes to that. Because that does happen. The old saying plan the trade before you make the trade. It's way too tempting to just rush in and buy without any regard for the necessary plan. 4. Sometimes a dip can turn into a correction or crash. Reminding yourself of this can slow down any impulsive actions. That's really the key here. Avoid impulsive buying. I have done this many times in my career and it has rarely ever worked well. 5. Find technical indicator that works well for you. Learn to love it. Study it. Understand why and what it does. It can be a handy tool to confirm your process or look for the conditions you want. On this chart I am having some fun with the open source script Moving Regression Prediction Bands . I like scripts like this because it's using statistical method to show price anomalies. 6. I also like using the Price Range tool to measure the percentage change in the dip. And compare it over time. I've listed three corrections on this chart. The key is to get a sense of where price has come from. Others might use fundamentals and wait for certain ratios to align, for example an attractive PE ratio or something like it. It’s up to you, but having a trusty tool can be of help. 7. Timing the markets is really hard. You can also view dips as a time to lower your cost basis in your favorite positions or as a potential way to swing trade. But once again, that's probably something you want to define *before* diving in. 8. The saying “Never risk money you can’t afford to lose” is especially true in dips and volatility. Additionally, if you are looking to buy a dip, there's no reason to buy all at once. Take your time. Wait... Wait... 9. Look at your account history and study your previous trades in similar times. Learn what's worked and what has not. 10. There are no easy answers to markets, but using the right tools and following some basic risk management principles can be of help. That's the key point to this post. Hope you found it interesting. They are a few rules I have in mind. Please feel to share your own in the comments. Or even better, publish your own idea. I will try to do this again as well. There are some other topics I look forward to adding to this post.

If you are holding Amazon stock reevaluate your positions!Since 1998 Amazon rewarded the shareholders with 77165% gain, one of the most incredible gains of all times. During the same time period, NASDAQ has gained only 1139%, which means Amazon gained almost 68 times. When you take a closer look at Amazon you will notice something has changed in the last 4 months. Amazon the 3rd biggest market cap company in the world after Apple and Microsoft failed to surpassed the September 2nd all times high, although the revenue and earnings growing reasonably! While Nasdaq gained 9.53% Amazon lost 5% which is very unusual for a company gained 68 times the index in the last 23 years! When a company performance getting better and better but fails to reach new highs, it means the longterm outlook for the company has changed a lot..! The main reason could be new online retailers which challenged Amazon by their innovative business models, look at Etsy and Square with 85%, 45% gain in the same time period..! The golden decades of Amazon passed, and buying and holding the shares could not make the share holders like before, invest in the new challengers..!
