RAD - Is there such a thing as a safe SHORT?If there was ever a thing such as a safe short- I think it would be Rite Aid (RAD)
As shown on a monthly chart, RAD triple topped in 2015=2017 and has been in a decline
every since. It has shed 90% of its market cap in the intervening 6-8 years. Now, it is
fundamentally fighting for survival. This is because as a weaker drugstore retailer and
the rise of Walgreens, CVS and others as well as RAD's role in the opioid epidemic
( I have insider knowledge) RAD is now filing for bankruptcy protection against
claims and litigation which will vastly outstrip its liability protections. All confirmations
on the monthly chart ( high validity given the time frame) considered in context, RAD
is near to its death bed. The judge will be ing the rights of shareholders against the rights
of litigants ( which include Medicare, Medicaid and state governments). The shareholders will
loose and loose very badly. I will go short in a stock trade and take a large put option position.
There is no need to buy call options here for backside protection. The writing is on the wall.
WBA
RAD Rite Aid Bull Flag consolidation RAD recently popped in a big way and on the 2H chart is now settled in consolidation
about 67% above the prior base. That is to say, it is in a horizontal channel awaiting
further volume and direction from traders. The bias is for a bullish breakout of
continuation and momentum. Potentially RAD could rise the height of the flag pole
but this seems unlikely given the current general market. the dual RS indicator shows
support at the 50 level a good sign the retracement is over, The MACD lines are dancing
around under the histogram. I am putting this on watch. If RAD goes over the top of the
channel I will go long. If it goes under the channel I will go short. I could do both and hedge
but that is complicated and with more risk. The stop loss is outside the opposite side
of the channel. My target is a more up or down about 50% of the completed move represented
by the flagpole. I consider RAD a mem stock with a potential short squeeze in process.
Buckle up and drive safely. DYODD.

Green on Walgreens. WBAConfirmed pivot.
We are not in the business of getting every prediction right, no one ever does and that is not the aim of the game. The Fibonacci targets are highlighted in green with invalidation in red. Confirmation level, where relevant, is a pink dotted, finite line. Fibonacci goals, it is prudent to suggest, are nothing more than mere fractally evident and therefore statistically likely levels that the market will go to. Having said that, the market will always do what it wants and always has a mind of its own. Therefore, none of this is financial advice, so do your own research and rely only on your own analysis. Trading is a true one man sport. Good luck out there and stay safe.
Walgreens Boots Alliance: Take Your Medicine 💊Walgreens Boots Alliance should take its medicine as the share needs some more strength to make it above the resistance at $42.29. From there, the course should rise into the green zone between $52.38 and $59.29 to conclude wave 3 in green before we anticipate a countermovement. A 38% chance remains, though, that WBA could drop below the support at $32.70 instead, subsequently slipping below the support at $30.39 as well.
WBA (Range Trade)The last two times price touched $42 was in August ($42.10) and December ($42.03). Price hovered near $42 highs in November but didn't hold. Could also be a start of new impulsive wave to the downside. Might wait til the fed decision and cpi reports pass next week to get a second look.

RAD Swing Trade Setup LongNYSE:RAD
RAD is the Rite Aid drug store chain0 being in healthcare and
consumer staples it is relatively resilient in a recessionary context.
On the Chart, RAD is at swing lows sitting on support with
25% upside potential. The RSI indicator shows an impending
K & D line cross under the histogram.
A recent triple top helps mark the resistance while an
earlier double bottom shows the support. The order block
indicator provides confirmation.
I see this as nearly ready for a swing-long entry.
What is your opinion?
WalgreensI see a possible M pattern forming here. I'm thinking about more people being sick and pharmacy visits over the cold winter season. Walgreens is a great convenience store with solid customer service from my experience. They've been around for a long time. I want to see price retrace the previous high up to 38 - 61%. We are currently in consolidation. However, I believe that since that previous was broken and the current low being higher than the previous, I can see WBA respecting that sentiment on a long term scale. The win goes to the longest holder. On the weekly , we are on the bottom of the Mac D as well and looks to be losing its bearish momentum.
Not advice!
WBA LONG L >56.00
WBA is going to push the price to 59.20
I see, that there is a good chance to long if price will go higher 56.00
i put an alert on 56.00$ and will try to long.
I see that 53.92 is a place, where buyers put there orders. I think, if 1D candle will close below 53.92 that will cause a giant sellout of long positions.
