NEW SERIES! Some Picks of Stocks From Restaurant Industry!Hi,
I would like to start covering different sectors/industries and selecting stocks that are or may be relevant in the future from the point of view of technical analysis.
Starting with Restaurants, searched out more than 60 companies, and here are some picks which are technically "the best ones".
Obviously, Do Your Own Analysis! To be said I don't invest them all, I'm only interested in a few of them, these are just some ideas that you should consider. Do your fundamental analysis and I will bet that it narrows the selection quite strongly because this industry is risky. Still, rewards might be also quite decent ;)
If you like this kind of series then name the next industry/sector in the comment section that might look interesting for you! Name it, tell me why you name it!

Keep in mind fundamental analysis tells you WHAT to buy, technical analysis tells you WHEN to buy.
I gave just some ideas about when to buy but you have to do your own analysis what to buy and whether to buy at all!
Hopefully, you like it and it would be awesome to start another series about stocks and sectors considering technical analysis- and do not forget to name your favorite sector on the comment section!

From Watchlist. YUMC. Not seeing decisive price action.This is a good long term bullish stock for me, but I'm trying to play the stocks I think will be making decisive moves. This isn't it for me. The correction is too complex. I like to see a nice wedge or flag formation, and this is a continually descending. I think they call it a flat or an expanded flat. I would like to see it finish with a zig zag or a triangle, but I'm not seeing either of those develop yet, regardless of how hard I squint.
Could it make a drastic move. Yes, of course that is always in the cards. But, I don't think it will based on the price action I am seeing here. Take all of this with a grain of salt. Whatever I'm doing here, I'm inexperienced at it. At least I can say I took the path tool and followed it, so I'm not missing anything, but still this is a tricky one. I can't imagine many retail traders thinking the shape it's making is an inviting one.
YUMC 0.618 and bullish butterfly pattern after buyout rumorI remember that day when YUMC was spun off from YUM I was still in Wall Street as a stock trader.
A few days later this name became one of my best name and my boss was like
"Hey Joe, many of my friends in other PE and hedge fund just did the exactly same trade as yours, good job bro!"
One of the most inspired moment !
Recently YUMC has rumors about being buyout, here we got a bullish butterfly pattern and here is 0.618 spot!
I'll be willing to look for trade around 31.50-32.00 to see if there are intraday reversal signs.
Let's how it goes!
