Outage of World Wide Services – CrowdstrikeHello Traders, The latest security update from the global cybersecurity giant caused a major service disruption today, Friday. This has affected globally such that companies like Microsoft, various stock exchanges, major banks, media companies, airports and airlines in Asia-Pacific, US and Europe; payment systems, supermarket services, emergency services and 911, etc. have been affected and have had to proceed to rollback the failed update on Windows servers. From the Australian opening to the European opening there have been disruptions in both stock markets. The London Stock Exchange has started its session with delays. If we look at Crowdstrike's chart we can see how the firm has been climbing positions since October 2023. During this month of July, the firm has been falling to the previous resistance zone in the area of $343.05, it is possible that after today's security debacle its value will be affected at the American opening. Looking at the RSI currently at 35.14% which could lead to another correction and a possible return to the mean from 30% if we follow the technical thinking. The volume bell with a triple bell shape places the most traded area in the $150 zone, so we could anticipate a correction, before the search for new highs. How far do you think the correction will affect?

CRWD: AnalysisOn CRWD we would have a high probability of having an uptrend if the vwap indicator is broken forcefully by a large green candle. On the other hand, if the support line is broken forcefully by a large red candle, this means that we would have a reversal of the trend.by PAZINI19Published 222
CRWD Trend BreakCRWD has been a strong name, but is threating to break below its uptrend. In addition to the trendline, it has horizontal support here as well. If it keeps moving lower I'd be looking for shorts targeting the gap fill below first.Shortby AdvancedPlaysUpdated 116
$CRWD and $PANW on watch for breakout next weekThis past week was a strong momentum swing for the technology sector ( AMEX:XLK ) reaching all-time highs. The leading cybersecurity stocks NASDAQ:CRWD and NASDAQ:PANW broke highs in June and have been trading sideways ever since, setting up for another run at highs. We've seen good steady volume throughout the previous week, supporting a strong break to the upside. Remember that the Fed will be releasing CPI data next week which could destabilize overall market conditions. Another thing to note is that NASDAQ:QQQ is overextended and could be due for a pullback. Regardless of these conditions, if the technology sector continues to prevail next week, keep a close eye on these two stocks for breakouts.Longby MrChartsmithPublished 1
375 matches the current sentimentThe stochastic is at double top; RSI is almost maxed out (so there could be room to let it go, and with the SMA 100 reaching 370, it could even bounce from there. I do see the indicators and the sentiment as bearish for now.by themoneyman80Published 0
CRWD Hammer-Counter-Shooter Weekly Break OutPeep that weekly.. look like a familiar set up? Another ascending triangle, but with an inside hammer-counter-shooter set up, adds to bullish conviction. Daily chart, we are looking to get above $390.71 with a solid close above, for continued upside. I would first aim for $393.29 (PWH) to take profit, and see if we can break above $394.64 resistance for all time highs.Longby AftaShockPublished 4

CrowdStrike Holdings. Post-Earnings Call to 600CrowdStrike Holdings, Inc. is an American cybersecurity technology company based in Austin, Texas. It provides cloud workload and endpoint security, threat intelligence, and cyberattack response services. CrowdStrike shares surged in late trading Tuesday after the security software company posted better-than-expected financial results for its fiscal fourth quarter ended Jan. 31. The company also offered guidance for both the April quarter and the January 2025 fiscal year that topped Wall Street estimates. CrowdStrike was up 22% in after-hours trading following the results. For the January quarter, CrowdStrike posted revenue of $845.3 million, up 33% from the year earlier quarter, beating Wall Street's consensus as tracked by FactSet of $839 million. Annual recurring revenue rose 34% from a year ago, to $3.44 billion. On an adjusted basis, the company earned 95 cents a share in the quarter, well ahead of the Street consensus at 82 cents. Under generally accepted accounting principles, the company earned 22 cents. For the April quarter, the company expects revenue of between $902.2 million and $905.8 million, with adjusted profits of 89 to 90 cents a share, ahead of Wall Street's consensus for $900 million in revenue and adjusted profits of 82 cents a share. CrowdStrike projects revenue for the January 2025 fiscal year of $3.925 billion to $3.989 billion, with adjusted profits of $3.77 to $3.97 a share; Analysts have been calling for $3.938 billion in revenue and profits of $3.76 a share. In a statement, CrowdStrike CEO George Kurtz said that "customers favor our single platform approach...CrowdStrike is cybersecurity's consolidator of choice, innovator of choice and platform of choice to stop breaches." That statement appears aimed at rival Palo Alto Networks, which recently said it was " facing spending fatigue in cybersecurity." Palo Alto is making an aggressive "platformization push," in some cases offering to give features away for free in the short-run to capture more customer IT spending budget in the long run. Technical chart illustrates potential target can be in $500 - 600 range, that is 40 to 60 per cent above even post-earnings robust surge.by PandorraUpdated 554
CRWD - 3 months CUP & HANDLE══════════════════════════════ Since 2014, my markets approach is to spot trading opportunities based solely on the development of CLASSICAL CHART PATTERNS 🤝Let’s learn and grow together 🤝 ══════════════════════════════ Hello Traders ✌ After a careful consideration I came to the conclusion that: - it is crucial to be quick in alerting you with all the opportunities I spot and often I don't post a good pattern because I don't have the opportunity to write down a proper didactical comment; - since my parameters to identify a Classical Pattern and its scenario are very well defined, many of my comments were and would be redundant; - the information that I think is important is very simple and can easily be understood just by looking at charts; For these reasons and hoping to give you a better help, I decided to write comments only when something very specific or interesting shows up, otherwise all the information is shown on the chart. Thank you all for your support 🔎🔎🔎 ALWAYS REMEMBER "A pattern IS NOT a Pattern until the breakout is completed. Before that moment it is just a bunch of colorful candlesticks on a chart of your watchlist" ═════════════════════════════ ⚠ DISCLAIMER ⚠ The content is The Art Of Charting's personal opinion and it is posted purely for educational purpose and therefore it must not be taken as a direct or indirect investing recommendations or advices.

Crowdstrike pushing towards all time highs!Crowdstrike has been in a strong upward trend since the beginning of 2023. Pullbacks were generally short-lived, and the trend accelerated early this year. CRWD reached its ATH in March, surpassing the 300 mark it reached in 2021. A significant consolidation occurred after that, but it seems like the bulls have garnered sufficient strength to test 360 again, after failing to breach the level 2 weeks ago, and maybe push the stock to new highs. The stock's 7% jump after beating the Q1 earnings estimate proved to be a perfect launchpad for this, CRWD is now trading above the 50, 100 & 200 SMA again. Should the 360 mark be broken, traders can start looking up to the 400$ mark. Fundamentally speaking, the threat of novel cybersecurity attacks is unfortunately not going to go away. Black hats are developing smarter-than-ever malware. To the eyes of many, Crowdstrike's AI-boosted cloud-based cybersec solutions offer powerful counters to those threats, so it is probably unlikely that Crowdstrike will see a sharp drop in demand in the near future as companies and their IT-teams are still catching up. According to the IDC (International Data Corporation) GenAI (Generative AI) in the cybersecurity market is growing at a CAGR of 23.6% and projects that it will reach a $46.3 billion market value by 2027.

6/4/24 - $crwd - the bar is too high; need a better setup 4 long6/4/24 - vrockstar - NASDAQ:CRWD - going to recycle a lot of the same logic i employed before i started publishing from late april. stock is in the same place. the issue really is a factor one since we've seen most of the other cyber and B2B report good #s and stocks struggle. even NASDAQ:ZS , one of my top picks good #s, good guide, half the multiple of NASDAQ:CRWD and dumped from the open. conclusion: be careful here fam. it will be hard to buy a breakout in this tape, esp in such an important macro week (*cough* friday jobs) and where the upside is probably 10% (which you'd take off the table immediately) and the downside is 10-25% all else equal. I'd guess the result is great and the reaction blows. that's my pt. i'm not bearish the name; i'd own it. but just not here, not now. -- repost my private comment: 4/26/24 - vrockstar - simply too expansive for 70x PE and 30-40% EPS cagr at most. 1.5% FCF fwd yield if i give credit for 1.5 bn on an EV of 70 ish is again probably "worth" the price assuming they can keep the momentum but this just seems like a steep ask in the current tap esp after the last print got sold hard and the stock has struggled to make new highs. would defn b a high quality LT pickup but need something of a discount here so setting the first level to re-address a take-look at slightly above 250. keep in mind fwd sales multiple here is probably still 12-13x which is super rich but could justify. have hard time paying 17x like todayShortby VROCKSTARPublished 2

Study of Dark Pool Buy Zones: CRWDNASDAQ:CRWD reports out of season, June 4th. When outlined to eliminate the extreme price action, there is a clear sideways trend. This is a Dark Pool Buy Zone. When the stock moves outside of that zone, it recovers quickly back into the zone. The huge Black candle was a gap up by HFTs on the last earnings report, followed by pros taking profits. Along with a lack of accumulation at that level, the stock whipsawed back down. The black candles thereafter were smaller funds selling on each bounce. Notice the tiny white candles that follow the black candles (see the orange arrows), patterns that reveal controlled, incremental buying against the selling. This is a longer sideways trend with stronger support and more definition of the buy zone despite heavy interference from small funds selling in the past couple of months. by MarthaStokesCMT-TechniTraderPublished 1

CRWD - a simple base for the simple mindCRWD is forming what is best described as a simple base as coined by Patrick Walker. For it to be completed a smaller cup must be formed on the right hand side around current levels. Completion of such base must be verified by an increase in volume. I believe this is to be seen over the coming weeks. The stock received favourable notice today when JPM reaffirmed its $400 price target while the positioning is to the bearish side with 68% of option positions are that way, as reported by Benzinga: www.benzinga.com this would put any upward pressure in the price into overspeed as investors cover. Taking note of the thematic play of stock such as CRWD, I am in no rush to enter right now, but do acknowledge that I have the tide with me should prove break out from here. This is a technical play, driven by the trend and supported by fundamentals. Your SL and PT(s) should be your own. Longby MrLowStepPublished 0
