WISH long opportunityClearly bottomed over the past few months, down an unbelievable percentage to its ATH (yes, their core business is failing and their NI is ever shrinking)...
However, I could see the pattern above playing out from a technical perspective -- perhaps improved Q2 earnings being the impetus this month.
WISH Continuation of Momentum LONGWISH had a great day to finish out this past trading week.
On the 15-minute day, two highs are drawn as horizontal resistance using the high candles
with the wicks as "tweezer tops" while the support is drawn as a green line at a pair of
"tweezer bottoms"
I see this as a bullish continuation play for next week. A stop loss is set below the support
line at $8.30 with a buy order placed at $.05 above the current market. Targets are $.05
below each of the resistance lines with an approximate reward to risk of 15X.
This is a volatile small cap with the typical high-risk and high-reward scenario.
I will take call options at the strike $ 7.5 for expiration on 5/5 expecting a return on
risk of at least 75% leveraging the expected return on a similar stock trade.
$WISH potential SHORT/LONG targets
$WISH has clearly broken the support level at $1.20
Long target can be 1.20 (in case of pullback to test resistance level)
Short targets:
0.41
0.53
**Don't trade based on my ideas.. you are going to be broke
Wait... What! but Why???What's going on here?
Probably nothing
Everything is just fine...
Zero-sum game
15b vs 300m
David vs Goliath
Follow the money...
I have 0 clue what's going on! that's pure abstract imagination! Do your own research!
Look First/ Then Leap
GPIL Bullish looking in 3 HTF!#The Pattern is a simple Support and Resistance
Points to Look:
1.The Channel Pattern is slanted downwards, this pattern has a high success rate!
2.Inside the pattern the recent trend is Bullish (Bullish Candle)
3.There is 'W' shape recovery(21 July 2022 to Now) in the trend which is also a good bullish sign.
4.There is a chance of CONSOLIDATION and tern break-out! be patient, also given the approx. Entry Prize in the chart.
5.Despite all this wait for a confirmation bullish candle above 20EMA in 1 DTF tomorrow and then take the position.
$Happy Trading Mates$
Happy New Year, traders!✨
Life is an adventure that's full of beautiful destinations.
Remember that every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world.
Wishing you many wonderful memories made in 2023.🌟
We wish you a Merry Christmas!🌟
Dear traders,
This year we faced a lot of obstacles and problems. For many, this year was phenomenally hard.
There is a famous quote by Marcus Aurelius “The impediment to action advances action. What stands in the way becomes the way.”
In any obstacle, there is an opportunity. What we should be doing, we should look at every obstacle that we face as an opportunity for us to grow and to make us stronger so that we can turn that into an opportunity. Every obstacle is the way forward.
I wish you all a lot of opportunities next year.
Merry Christmas!!!🌟
Christmas holidays

Will WISH Share Bounce Back Soon as Renko Chart Tells us?ContextLogic (WISH) share price does not stop recording continuous and severe losses, while WISH share is trading below the $1 level now. While the sharp bearish tone prevails on the stock, as it traded below the short and long-term exponential moving averages.
Now, on the Renko chart, and taking into account the previous RSI readings, we can learn that the long series of losses for WISH share price usually ends with the RSI reversing from the oversold territory as shown in the chart.
Accordingly, we find that WISH share is now in the oversold area, while we keep an eye on the level of 0.6258, which may provide a possible rebound point for the share from the oversold area, to test the price range shaded in yellow, to target after that the level of 0.9786 in the short term.
In the opposite case, the pullback of WISH share price below 0.6258 and the failure to recover it, may invalidate the previous hypothesis and may lead WISH share price to further decline towards new historical low levels.
Concerning fundamentals, ContextLogic missed EPS estimates of -$0.16 per share by posting an EPS of -$0.18 per share, as well as revenue of $125M versus the projected revenue of $135.77M in the third quarter. Furthermore, the company anticipates additional operational losses in the fourth quarter ranging from $90-110 million.
Wish 22 vs Amazon 2001If history is any guide...
It can go to $0.69 just for the memes! Wish to the moon! don't try to outsmart Wallstreet just try to think like them.
I have been wrong 100 times with this one! I just don't want to be 100 + 1!
This is what true risk/reward looks like! Everybody is scared to death and the majority sitting at > -70% losses...
Please do your own research and listen to nobody!!!
Good time to get out wishLooks like it is at the peak of this run. The hanging man candle has shown its head. After this run I would expect to see it pull back and consolidate. It may have broken it's downward trend, but it is a bit too early to tell.
Vish V for VictoryNice trend line breaking on log scale.
If q2 GDP growth is negative, we are technically in a recession.
thus, commodity price will be driven down, and FED could ease up their monetary policy.
Thats nice for the capital market.
Wishful thinking? Context Logic
Short Term - We look to Sell at 1.64 (stop at 1.79)
A Doji style candle has been posted from the high. The medium term bias remains bearish. The bias is still for lower levels and we look for any gains to be limited. Preferred trade is to sell into rallies.
Our profit targets will be 1.22 and 1.19
Resistance: 1.65 / 1.85 / 2.50
Support: 1.21 / 1.10 / 1.00

WISH upside momentumWISH is now a shadow of the company that was rumored that Amazon offered $10 billion all-cash to buy it and Wish's CEO didn`t agree!
Now its value is $1.5Bil
But Investors are confident as WISH approaches its next earnings release.
Analysts expect WISH to post earnings of -$0.10 per share, an year-over-year growth of 52.38%.
Instead the consensus estimate is calling for revenue of $211.19 million, down 72.64% from the prior-year quarter.
Will it reach $3.65 or $5?
Looking forward to read your opinion about it.
Wish Downward Wedge Breakout PT $11.70Wish finally broke out of long downtrend. Best is yet to come.
Bearish Trend for WISH Almost Complete P2...If you've been a follower of my analyses on WISH, you would know that this stock has been following a downward channel in a grand Elliot-wave sequence. We are coming close to the end of the impulse, which would be around $1.27. After, we will get an ABC wave to the upper trend-line. There are two ways of interpreting the chart:
1) The wave that's about to finish was impulsive wave 3/5. We then get ABC wave 4, unable to break the channel, followed by the last wave down to penny land (~.75)
or
2) The wave that's about to finish is wave 5, evidence of that being macro oversold conditions. We break channel if this is the case for a short-squeeze, super bullish move.
We are currently in the Bear Market territory that we called last year. The entry for both is the same, bottom of the trendline, historically, Fibonacci 2. Things will get interesting soon so have patience and diligence during these times.
Best,
Ash
