The Most successful trades are the ones that follow your planTrading is simple but it is not easy
If It was easy everyone will be making money, it is simple in the sense that a set trading plan once followed can yield positive probability results.
I will teach you my most successful trading method. I have been using this method for years & it is no secret, this trading technique is used by many traders, the more traders who use this technique the more of a true self fulfilling it becomes.
Use three charts, a Long-term Chart, a Current term chart and a smaller term Chart.
Identify the long-term trend on the long-term chart. if the trend is up. use the Current-term chart to identify a correction into a qualified DZ. use the small-term chart to time your entry, time your stop loss and time your profit targets.
This is the theory of a successful trading strategy. for the practice check out my other trades.
In this long trade on PEP Pepsi, the long-term (M) is an uptrend. the price corrects into a DZ, that also happens to be the Higher Low of the (M) uptrend. the Long trade was initiated & two profit targets were reached when the price held steady proofing a price correction & not a trend reversal.
PEPD trade ideas
PEP bullish englufingPEP had a strong bullish engulfing candle today after a small selloff on positive earnings. I did enter the position with some cash on my last charge post for PEP. Fundamentally I think 192-200$ over the next year sounds reasonable. This is not going to produce astronomical gains, but reasonable and safer gains as we approach recession territory. I believe the government will do anything they can to make the stock market look good during elections.
PepsiCo Beats Q1 Revenue ForecastsPepsiCo ( NASDAQ:PEP ), a multinational food, snack, and beverage corporation headquartered in Purchase, New York, exceeded revenue expectations in the first quarter of the year, driven by strong international demand for its snacks and beverages.
During the January-April period, the company reported a 2% increase in revenue to $18.3 billion, surpassing Wall Street's $18 billion forecast as per the analysts polled by FactSet.
Frito-Lay's revenue rose by 2% in North America, while Pepsi beverage sales increased by 1%. However, sales were impacted by the recall of Quaker Oats cereal, bars, and snacks early in the quarter due to potential salmonella contamination, which caused Quaker Foods sales to plummet by 24% during the quarter.
Despite fewer products on grocery shelves in some countries, PepsiCo ( NASDAQ:PEP ) experienced 11% sales growth in Asia Pacific and 10% sales growth in Europe. Carrefour, one of Europe's largest supermarket chains, withdrew PepsiCo products from its shelves in France, Belgium, Spain, and Italy in January due to unacceptable price hikes, but the two companies resolved their pricing dispute, and Carrefour resumed restocking PepsiCo products in early April.
To tackle rising ingredient costs, PepsiCo ( NASDAQ:PEP ) has relied heavily on price increases over the last two years. The fourth quarter of 2023 marked the company's eighth consecutive quarter of double-digit percentage price hikes. However, these increases moderated in the first quarter, with PepsiCo reporting a 5% global net pricing increase and a 2% decline in volumes. The company attributed some of the volume decline to a strategic move to shrink package sizes to meet consumer demand for convenience and portion control.
Despite all that In premarket trading on Tuesday, PepsiCo's ( NASDAQ:PEP ) shares remained unchanged.
PepsiCo's ( NASDAQ:PEP ) net earnings increased by 5.6% to $2 billion in the first quarter. Excluding special items, the company earned $1.61 per share, beating Wall Street's forecast of $1.52.
PepsiCo ( NASDAQ:PEP ) stock closed at 68.58 Relative Strength Index (RSI) Monday's trading session above its respective Moving Averages (MA's)
PEP new addition to long-term portfolioToday I finally added PEP to my long-term portfolio. This is a value play for me and I plan on parking a large amount of cash here over-time. I expect this to heavily out-perform money market this year. My plan is to sell this a year plus out to capture the value discount we see here. I am a very heavy buyer if we dip to 165$ here.
-I like to have defensive value stocks as a large portion of this portfolio because I exposed to tremendous risk and volatility with my larger altcoin bag
-This is my general barbell strategy, super high risk alts > profit take into money market/value stocks/ and quality long holds like HMDPF
Pepsico Investment OpportunityPepsico reached a Monthly demand zone before reacting.
1) Weekly big liquidity was taken (dotted line)
2) Price Reacted and took again a liquidty in daily timeframe before braking the structure and become bullish
I'm expecting the price now to continue to be bullish and reaching new highs.
Downside risk 8%
Upside gain 25-35%
PEPSICO - Low Risk High Reward - BullishNASDAQ:PEP
-Has been on a bull run since 1981
-Every while does a 10-20% correction,
(and up to a 40% correction in case of a major economic crisis)
-Always goes back up to a new all-time-high...always
-Is now done about 20% from all-time-high
-Prices now are the same as it was in Nov 2021
-The last time it did such a correction was in 2020
I would say it is a no-brainer for those who are looking for low-risk trades, I would go in with no stop loss even since it will find its way back up.

Diagonals in ElliottwaveSome old and new rules when it comes to diagonals.
Further notice can be added that diagonals actionary waves can be composed either by zig zags or impulses
so Waves
1/3/5 can be Impulse
or
1/3/5 zig zags
We cant have hybrids where we mix zig zags and impulses.
Actionary waves in ending diagonals can only be formed by zig zags and never Impulses.
Every reactionary wave (or corrective wave) in a diagonal must be a zig zag (or a zig zag family, meaning double or tripple sharp zig zag)
PEP bearishhi traders
PEP is not looking good here.
The price created a double top pattern which is bearish.
We expect the price to retest the neckline and if we get a successful breakdown the short position can be taken.
The target for shorts: 155 $
The invalidation would be if the price reclaims the support after the successful breakdown. In this case the short position should be closed.
Good luck
PepsiCo Navigates Challenges Amidst Earnings BeatPepsiCo (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:PEP ) has once again demonstrated its ability to weather storms and adapt to changing market conditions. The latest quarterly earnings report from the beverage and snack giant paints a nuanced picture of both triumphs and challenges, offering insights into the intricacies of consumer behavior and economic factors influencing purchasing patterns.
Earnings Report
Despite surpassing Wall Street’s expectations in terms of earnings per share, PepsiCo faced headwinds as its quarterly revenue experienced a slight decline, marking the first downturn in nearly four years. The company attributed this dip to various factors, including high borrowing costs and diminished personal savings affecting consumers’ spending habits, particularly in the North American market.
CEO Ramon Laguarta provided valuable insights into the underlying dynamics, noting a slowdown in U.S. sales driven by pricing pressures and shifts in consumer behavior. As consumers increasingly opt for convenience store purchases over at-home consumption, PepsiCo finds itself adjusting its strategies to meet evolving demand patterns. Laguarta’s optimism, however, remains palpable as he points to positive indicators such as low unemployment rates and potential improvements in interest rates and wages, which could bolster consumer spending in the coming months.
Delving Deeper
Delving deeper into the numbers, PepsiCo’s ( NASDAQ:PEP ) organic revenue saw a commendable 4.5% increase, fueled primarily by higher prices. However, the same pricing strategy has inadvertently dampened demand for the company’s products, leading to a decline in volume. Notably, PepsiCo’s North American divisions, including Quaker Foods and Frito-Lay, experienced volume contractions, with the former grappling with a product recall that affected sales momentum.
Future Outlook
Looking ahead, PepsiCo ( NASDAQ:PEP ) recalibrates its projections for 2024, anticipating organic revenue growth of at least 4% and an 8% increase in core constant currency earnings per share. While acknowledging the likelihood of a subdued first half of the year, marred by product recalls and geopolitical tensions impacting international sales, the company remains steadfast in its commitment to navigating these challenges with resilience and agility.
Conclusion
In conclusion, PepsiCo’s ( NASDAQ:PEP ) latest earnings report serves as a testament to its ability to adapt and thrive in a dynamic market environment. By staying attuned to consumer preferences, while also proactively addressing economic headwinds, the company continues to position itself for sustainable growth and long-term success. As the journey unfolds, PepsiCo’s steadfastness in the face of adversity reaffirms its status as a stalwart in the global consumer goods industry.
