The stock is very close to its current average analysts price target, so more upgrades like that by UBS yesterday are likely to follow.

$AAP Advance Auto carries good momentum into earnings.Todays earnings report from NYSE:AZO was bullish as we expected and the stock has moved considerably higher, our expectations are very much the same for NYSE:AAP whom report tomorrow before the bell. In our last analysis we had hoped for a breakout above $183 which failed but this remains our breakout level which will soon be tested once again. Despite falling below the crucial MA's support the stock is rallying once again on high volume with a nice reset in the RSI and Stoch, they MACD is negative but a cross is imminent.
This we think is a long term winner and a pretty secure long into earnings.

AAP Approaching Support, Potential Break out!AAP is approaching its support at 153.97 (channel support) where if broken, will trigger a further move down to its next support at 144.73 (38.2% Fibonacci retracement, horizontal pullback support).
RSI shows that price has broken out of its ascending support-turned-resistance line which contributes to our bearish bias.

Bearish BatGreat looking bearish bat with good looking bearish divergence on the volume weighted MACD, and price has reacted well to the PRZ (orange box). I am looking at the March 2019 (I might also be looking as soon as December), just out of the money, puts. They look incredible right now! Setting the stop loss of 35% on my position when I open it tomorrow, and my target price is around $120. I'll update as the position unfolds...
