Top 4 Buy Signals Lighting Up Mastercard (MA) 🚀 Top 4 Buy Signals Lighting Up Mastercard (MA) | Rocket Booster Strategy
Mastercard Inc. (MA) is showing explosive potential, and it’s not just one signal—it’s a whole confluence of confirmations. When
you align this much market momentum, you don’t ignore it. Let’s break down how Rocket Booster Strategy gives us a powerful buy indication on the daily chart.
🔍 The Confluence Setup
✅ 1. DMI Buy Signal
The Directional Movement Index (DMI) is in bull mode. ADX is
rising and the +DI is firmly above -DI. This shows the trend is not just alive—it’s gaining strength.
🔻 2. Volume Oscillator Pullback
While Volume Oscillator is down, this is seen as constructive and not bearish. It suggests a quiet zone before the thrust—just like fuel loading before a rocket launch.
Smart traders know: momentum can build silently.
💥 3. Awesome Oscillator = Strong Buy
The Awesome Oscillator is green and firing hard. We’ve seen a clear twin-peak bullish formation followed by a break above zero
—classic acceleration sign.
🕯️ 4. Rising Window (Japanese Candlestick Pattern)
A Rising Window—a bullish continuation gap—has formed. This is one of Steve Nison’s top continuation patterns. It signals strong
institutional conviction in this trend.
📈 What Does This Mean?
When DMI, AO, candlestick patterns, and our own Rocket Booster Strategy all point up, it’s time to pay attention. This setup is rare—and high-probability.
🧠 Rocket Booster Strategy Recap
This strategy uses 3 momentum alignment points:
High Momentum Indicator (like AO) in Buy Mode
Pattern Confirmation (Rising Window or Engulfing)
Volume Correction Before Breakout (Fuel Before Fire)
When all 3 click into place, we have ignition.
🎯 Final Thoughts
Mastercard is looking primed for takeoff on the daily timeframe. Whether you’re an investor or a swing trader, this chart is
speaking loud and clear. But as always, risk management is your co-pilot.
✅ Add it to your watchlist.

It’s been a volatile stock, down ~53% over the past year, with its 52‑week range at about $85.88–$228.42
Average Wall Street target: ≈ $135–142, suggesting ~40–46% upside from the ~$98 current price.
Low edge: $90 — implies ~10% downside.
High edge: $190 — implies nearly +94% upside.
Visa: Waiting in the Wings Visa has entered a phase of sideways consolidation — but this does not affect our primary scenario. We continue to see the stock moving within magenta wave , which is expected to complete the larger turquoise wave 4 inside our turquoise Target Zone between $308.09 and $292.19. After that, we anticipate a renewed upward impulse. Turquoise wave 5 should then push the stock beyond the resistance levels at $375.51 and $394.49. Meanwhile, we are keeping two alternatives on our radar. The first has a 35% probability and assumes the correction is already over, meaning turquoise wave alt.4 is complete. The second is a more bearish scenario (32% probability) visible on the daily chart. It suggests that the high of green wave alt. may already be in, which would imply that the ongoing alt. wave is headed toward a lower low below the $234.30 support level.

AAPL earnings after market close 7/31/25. Looking for an upward move into earnings with resistance at $225 then retesting support at $215. This zone falls between the .5 and .618 fib retracement. Great risk/ reward ratio 3.5:1
7/23/25 - $btog - Back at it7/23/25 :: VROCKSTAR :: NASDAQ:BTOG
Back at it
- not much to say except this thing holds about 70c worth of CRYPTOCAP:DOGE
- CRYPTOCAP:DOGE < $BTC. let's get that out of the way
- i certainly don't think a "doge" or "eth" or "sol" or whatever crapcoin treasury company is similar to MSTR. again let's get that out of the way
- but you're basically buying the inevitable DOGE ETF here at something like 15% off, (for now spot can always go lower)
- will keep my finger off the trigger if i focus on my NYSE:FI buy today (now up to 20% size from minuscule y day) and now i'm trading this thing (for fun)

7/24/25 - $joby - Lol... gl making money here7/24/25 :: VROCKSTAR :: NYSE:JOBY
Lol... gl making money here
- have long followed the evtol "space" which is a bit more quantum-mechanical in nature... because it "is here" and also "not here"
- will be a long wait here
- somehow retail $ has allowed story tellers to write season after season of "wait and trust me bro" and this is no exception
- perhaps they are a winner
- but this valuation doesn't even require an explanation, sorry (heuristics, and i could get into it if anyone is genuinely curious and not going to just write silly short retorts - happy to debate)
- with that being said this will likely find it's way right back to the single digits, sooner vs later
- welcome to the short portfolio JOBY... you're joined with 10 other small positions that should make you feel like part of the club. i keep em small, so emotion stays ice cold, and when i run em big, i will make a comment. but until then. comfy short here, almost a lobotomized position for a hedge to my long book in this whacky tape

7/15/25 - $deck - Not obvious. But it's a buy.7/15/25 :: VROCKSTAR :: NYSE:DECK
Not obvious. But it's a buy.
- will reiterate that i'm not on tape so closely this week, but will revert w any comment replies by next week; nevertheless i'm checking in here on the tape
- see what T did today on NVDA/ China?
- you think it's easier or harder to resolve some of these discretionary names in the meanwhile vs. nvda H20s to China?
- exactly.
- even NKE put up pretty barfy numbers and the stock was like well... who cares
- i think we're reaching that point with NYSE:DECK here after seeing NYSE:NKE , then reading between the lines on NASDAQ:NVDA ->consumer/discretionary tariffs etc. etc.
- rates will come down, the consumer is tapped out, new fed chair on deck etc. etc.
so the way I'm playing this:
i've bought some ITM calls for aug 15 expiry. why? because it allows me to get proper MSD size (3-4%) but pay only 30-40 bps (10x leverage). the thinking is this... if stock pukes on this result, i'm high conviction that 80% scenario i'd want to load TF up. and if it rips/ or if T has a favorable bowel movement in the meantime... this will rip and off the *extreme* (remember - extreme positioning always gets you the best rewards... but TA doesn't tell you where the bottoms are as much as fundamentals IMVVVHO)... then you get a double whammy and stock is back in the $110s+. so the R/R is v good. but i don't want to get crushed if the stock/ macro work against me and need some wiggle room.
eye'ing LULU too.. but i like valuation and R/R on NYSE:DECK better esp given the NYSE:NKE print and their multiple-brand-multiple-disty strategy vs. say lulu's own-disty strategy.

MSFT – A correction brewing? zero day CRWD-like scenario?In July 2025, a critical vulnerability in Microsoft SharePoint (CVE-2025-53770) was exploited by threat actors globally. Although the issue was first reported during the Pwn2Own Berlin competition back in May, Microsoft delayed the patch — allowing attackers a significant head start. Over 400 servers and dozens of organizations were breached, including U.S. and European government entities.
💬 On July 18, Reddit users began discussing the flaw’s severity, comparing it to past vulnerabilities like Log4j. Interestingly, this coincided with the first significant technical deviation from the bullish trend — marking a potential beginning of downside momentum.
🔍 In the chart above:
Strong bullish run until the Zero-Day disclosure
Clear gap beneath current price action
TARGET 1 reflects a natural technical retracement toward EMA 50–100 and the mid-term trendline
TARGET 2 is conditional – it only applies if a massive event occurs, similar to what we saw with CRWD
⚠️ Key distinction:
CrowdStrike: A software update bug caused a global Windows crash — no cyberattack, but massive operational impact
Microsoft: A real, actively exploited security vulnerability — with long-tail risk for data leaks, ransomware, and regulatory backlash
🎯 Conclusion:
If the SharePoint exploit escalates in visibility or consequences, and Microsoft fails to contain the damage — we could see extended downside pressure. TARGET 2 remains valid only under a high-severity scenario, like CRWD’s global meltdown.
META Slows Down For A Correction Within UptrendMeta has seen a strong recovery recently, but barely retested February highs around 740, from where we can see some nice pullback, but it appears corrective, since it’s unfolding in three waves, and forming a potential bull flag — likely wave 4. A breakout above the downward channel on a daily close could signal the start of wave 5 and a push to new highs.
However, keep a close eye on the 666.1; a break below this level would invalidate the bullish view and suggest a deeper consolidation phase may follow.
Highlights:
Direction: Up (pending breakout)
Structure: Wave 4 bull flag; wave 5 possible soon
Support: 680 / 690

Duh
- ppl focused on ST FCF (all over X!) is 100% of the reason why when you put the pieces together, you realize that while ST this might not behave like anyone expects... LT, TSLA is v likely going to in, elon's own words, be the largest cap in the history of capital markets
- two leading robots with leadership position in IRL AI
- profitable, is all that matters
- have not yet hit the S-curve
was super lucky to trim some of this last week
now i'm back to sizing into a full position, not yet there like on that silly political dump, but i'm nearly 10% (20% is my max size).

7/23/25 - $orly - priced for perfection7/23/25 :: VROCKSTAR :: NASDAQ:ORLY
priced for perfection
- hard to not consider this as a hedge to my NYSE:DECK long (into tmr print)
- stock has had series of weak Q's
- google trends remains meh
- stock not cheap at <3% fcf yield (staples closer to 3.5%+)
- IV on the chain seems lazy... not pricing in much move
- i'd sense that the upside is quite limited and the downside is probably 2-3x the upside
- so while it's not a 9/10 idea (like the push i made on say BOATS:FI after the open this morning - which worked very well and now back to a comfy spot w ITM leaps)... it's a nice filler position on the hedge side, i think
- and honestly it's also a situation where we flip the river card and the stock rips on mediocre restuls... and that tired stock chart just wants to flip bearish, even if it's just a temporary pause before heading higher
- i look at this and i know the personalities that own it
- i'll take under, fam
