SOXX 1 year trendSemiconductors/chips continue to be an essential part of everything around the globe.
For a year, we have maintained an upward trend, which is being tested today.
There are clear outperformers in the industry, but it is clearly been working for all of them as a whole.
When we have touched the trend line in the past, we have had a 50 point gain, which has happened through 2 weeks approximately. That gives us a target of around $505.

US 100 / NASDAQ -If history repeats itselfHere is an idea into Spring and Summer 2022. If tech is the future, and stocks only go up, with pull backs and corrections along the way.
Automating strategies keeps me sane 😊Running a strategy with a proven edge has me comfortable mentally on how a trade plays out, Be it a stop out or a take profit target met.
Also automating those proven strategies and just letting them be helped with my mental state as a trader.
Trade alerted 17:45 this afternoon and has been close once to TP.
I didn't know this I was in the garden enjoying the late summer sun that has bestowed the UK this week 🌞
Once upon a time watching the charts would of had me thinking of closing to soon and then filling with regret as the retrace occurs that I didn't close.
Only reason to look at chart tonight was a quick mid week review of trades and this trade is one of my open ones.
Trade details are shown on the chart.
We are working the 15M time frame on this strategy.
We're looking for the green line which is take profit target.
Little red arrow is entry point and purple line is stop loss.
The current open trade still might not hip TP but I'm not allowing emotions to play a part I let the objective based plan play out.
Previous trades shown on chart from the last two days.
Trade history can be seen at the foot of this trade idea too for full transparency.
These are year to date stats.
How do you as traders journal your trades I'm intrigued to know?
Having back test capability and a trade log which is possible through TradingView pine script saves me hours in manually logging trades as well as manually back testing.
Having that level of data allows me to know I'm running a proven strategy and that I have an edge.
The next key bit to staying sane/stress free and one of the best pieces of advice I could give as a trader is use technology available to your advantage.
Trading shouldn't consume every spare minute. Most of us do this to escape the 9-5 so don't spend hours at charts unnecessarily.
Not spending hours at charts is why I haven't shared all these trades on this pair and when this current one alerted.
If your reading this tonight let this sink in I've only looked at this chart once this week when I shared my last idea yesterday on the pair in question.
There has been three trades since then and I'm only just looking now!
Take it from me find a strategy that works and then automate that strategy.
Your mental health and well being will be the winner in the long run along with healthy account gains.

I try and share as many ideas as I can as and when I have time. My trades are automated so I am not sat in front of a screen daily.
Jumping on random trade ideas 'willy-nilly' on Trading View trying to find that one trade that you can retire from is not a sustainable way to trade. You might get lucky, but it will always end one way.

Analysis:
When taking a look at the 4 hour chart, I see a few indicators that give me bullish sentiment:
1. Candles near strong support.
2. RSI Oversold.
3. Mac D on it's down side.
4. High before the most recent previous high was broken.
5. 200/50 EMA Cross w/ 2 Orange Renkos.
Looking for a price target of $57 and up! Not Financial Advice. Always Do Research Before Decision!
GM - The Tesla Crusher - EV Push - Valuation & Sales*rising rates environment will smash the Dogefathers Ponzi Pogs. Forward P/E is a NOGO from now on. *valuation & PROFITS NOW matter most.
I'd enter with a 50% stack. DCA if need be. I doubt you get a chance at anything meaningful. The chip play for EVs and others.

VMWARE MONTHLY AMAZING HEAD AND SHOULDERSVMware, Inc. is an American cloud computing and virtualization technology company headquartered in California. VMware was the first commercially successful company to virtualize the x86 architecture. Excellent bullish break of a head and shoulders on a monthly timeframe that can be used as an entry point on this asset.
CSCO Log Chart AnalysisGood reclaim of important monthly level, I'd prefer to see a nice retrace back to 57s but the opportunity cost may outweigh the better entry. We're entering peak euphoria ranges from the internet bubble... if we escape this range, north of $82 the fun really starts. All time highs are a mere 40% away, with 50%+ upside from there.
Take profit levels marked using fib retracement of the internet bubble top and bottom. I expect this to run from this spot, good R:R with scaled stops under the monthly level.
Considering this analysis was done at high time frame, it may take a while to play out. Below 53.41, I think this trade is invalidated.
AMAT running out of steamNASDAQ:AMAT has been seriously testing its dynamic support through last weeks earnings report, but has not yet posted a full daily candle beneath. Still, that support has been functionally invalidated by 4 successive candles poking through. In my opinion, a new technical structure is therefore forming. How price action respects the MA200 and/or key supports in the 115-120 range will help define the new channel and pattern.
The largest potential drop (excluding external catalysts) could be to the 118 level, i.e. at the confluence of the MA200 and 19MAY low.
Longer term, NASDAQ:AMAT will continue to post blowout earnings, which should lead to new ATH in late 2021/early 2022. In the meantime, we may see it continuing to trade on the lower side of FMV with a weak upward trend.
