SNAP trade ideas
SNAP - PEG consolidation on VCP pattern (8/16/2021)Consolidation after PEG. Has shown it is holding the gap up and is currently sitting at the bottom 68% of the fixed volume range since PEG. Volume is drying up indicating that seller are getting tired. All KMA are in a uptrend but could use some more time for a consolidation.
Entry: $75ish
Stop: $72ish
Risk: 4%
SNAP Breakout Long (8/5/21)Clean breakout on 4h/daily chart with double bottom forming around support levels. Could definitely retest ATH with volume and as long as major indices hold up, current price target around $79.
Support above the earnings gap up seems to have held up well, wouldn't consider puts/short unless we breach the level with volume.
Snapchat - Keeps surprising!-Social networking company Snap's (NYSE:SNAP) recent second-quarter earnings release was followed by many upgraded 12-month price targets for the stock from analysts. One revised target stretched as high as $110, translating to nearly 50% upside from where the stock is trading today. Furthermore, many of the price target hikes were featured alongside buying or outperform ratings.
-Capturing the company's improved advertising pricing, Snap said in its second-quarter update that its effective cost per 1,000 total ad impressions (eCPM) soared 122% year over year.
-"Rising eCPM relative to the prior year reflects the rapid rise in overall demand, improved optimization capabilities within our auction, a mix shift toward relatively higher eCPM products, as well as a mix shift toward relatively higher eCPM regions such as North America," said Snap CFO Derek Andersen in the company's second-quarter earnings call.
-Snap's trend of rising cost per 1,000 total ad impressions could persist over the next decade, Ju believes. Of course, the catalyst will decelerate from this quarter's triple-digit growth, as the period benefited from an easy year-ago comparison when marketers were holding back some ad spend as businesses navigated uncertain environments.
-Other analysts similarly cited sustainable growth trends in advertising revenue growth. But some also praised the company's ability to grow its daily active users.
-It's not surprising to see so many analysts growing more optimistic about Snap stock. The company's second quarter was truly exceptional. Revenue soared 116% year over year to $982 million, and the company's daily active users increased 23% year over year to 293 million.
-Furthermore, Snap provided very strong guidance. Management said it expects revenue in the third quarter to increase 58% to 60% year over year. This is quite an extraordinary outlook considering it's on top of 52% growth in the year-ago quarter.
$SNAP shorts. Great earnings. Great company. Very much over valued price. Been on off shorting $SNAP since the earnings report.
-Technical- Technically major gap to be filled, with ongoing pressure in equities I think this can be accomplished. Bulls will give up below 73.
I am short through puts from 75. Will expect a higher volatile move shortly.
Cheers.
