UPWK - emerging from base (buy the dips)UPWK has been forming a base with neckline around 14.50 -15.35. Upon earnings announcement yesterday, it gapped up decisively on huge volume, rising a crazy 44%, and closing right at neckline.
What is clear is that it could be near the end of its base building and could begin to start trending up in the coming weeks.
The entry is tricky now due to its oversized move in a single day, hence I would prefer to see some pullback from here to look for opportunity to enter at the dips (fib-retracement level, candlestick reversal setups etc)
A more conservative approach is long only when it has cleared the neckline above 15.35. It may sound counter-intuitive to buy at hgher prices but in actual the odds of a sustainable trend is also increased when the stock is able to clear a significant resistence (namely, the neckline).

UPWK Entering Phase E Markup On Shorter TimeframeWyckoff Accumulation Schematic #1 almost complete on a short term timeframe.
Longer term..
Risk is 10%, reward is 120-200%.
Stop loss and invalidation are clearly outlined (at 10% below current price.)
Stock has formed a technical double bottom (textbook) over the last 4 months, and completed this formation with strong support yesterday.
Stock has inverse correlation with most equities (think covid darlings that spiked in times of turmoil).
Stock is strongly correlated with unemployment rates. Rising interest rates tighten credit conditions , revenues should slow.. increasing unemployment. The whole point of all of this is to only slow interest rate hikes when the market shows it's responding to high interest rates. This is evident through unemployment statistics, and inflation growth. We look to inflation to suggest that interest rate hikes are having an impact, we look to unemployment to confirm it. Higher unemployment is coming, which means objective upward pressure for this stock.
Company is buying back debt from convertible notes it has issued, reducing it's overall debt obligation by around 30% (press release yesterday).
A reputable firm analyzed the stock the other day, and placed a 100% price target based on competition and all known pressures on the stock being "well discounted, and well priced in".
Company is increasing their prices as of today by 50% on their most expensive products, and dropping their prices 50% on their cheapest products.
Company has an analyst consensus (average of all) of 62% increase in price from current price.
Stock is down 83% since it's last high, 512 days ago.
Company has surprised revenue expectations for the last 8 consecutive quarters.
Stock has created bullish divergence on the RSI (relative strength index) on long term timeframes , indicating that buyers stepped in to support price in this range 3-4 months ago.
Company is reaching the end of a technical pennant by May 11 2023, and will have a substantial increase in volatility before that time. The pennant is building pressure, consolidating price within a range and coiling the shorter term moving averages, building momentum for a technical breakout.
Upwork isn't going anywhere. Buy. DYOR.
$UPWK W/ Earnings this week and clean cypher set up I will be watching $UPWK, hoping to catch this off 786 trigger level w candle action to minimize the risk (tighten stop loss)
Watch price action off 618 level as the spinning top doji close can bring in buyers.
Tp's are shown, Tp1 stop is to entry, tp 4 is 16.50$, not shown in chart.
I will post entry if I get a good one w lower risk, 3-4x risk to reward is not worth the time, at all for me :)
Upwork Showing a weekly small double bottom here. Daily buy volume came in on that area. We need to see a break and hold above 19.10 as if this falling wedge wants to break to the upside could taget 28$. Of course in this bearish market upside is hard to imagine Howver that volume coming in is surprising would at least have to stoploss below the second low of 16.96
could bounce here, but im nuetral at the moment upwk approaching its last line off support. If we bounce here and break 39.71 my price targets are 50.39-58.98
below 30 theres not much support and we can hit 18.73
staying neutral until we see a clear break to either direction.
like and follow for more! 💘
UPWKUPWK at a potential buying point. Found support at a long term trendline + 1 year out/post gap up (also where significant price action begins) Anchored VWAP. New pivot low would also align with the previous distance between pivot lows. This also could be the end of an ABC corrective wave, setting up a potential new move to the upside. Bullish RSI divergence is also a supporting factor. Not necessarily expecting a sudden move to the upside, but UPWK is a long term thesis for me so I like the low risk entry. Today was an inside day (contracting volatility) and it gave us a green hammer showing us some momentum to the upside. Looking for 3 inside up candle formation for confirmation of long entry.
UPWK earnings ideaExpecting a pre earnings pullback, then run after earnings. UPWK dropped despite a double beat upon Q1 and Q2 earnings report due to guidance that hyper seasonality factors would decrease screen time. However increasing jobless claims and a study of travel data leads me to believe that this was purely a Q2 concern, where there was a sharp increase in travel numbers and less jobless claims and a small drop in revenue from the previous quarter. One key thing to note is that UPWK's user base grew significantly due to COVID-19 as revenue grew significantly over the course as the pandemic and as we saw travel numbers taper off. However an increase in travel numbers did not cause a proportionate drop-off in revenue numbers, possibly indicating that the gig economy is here to stay. These factors lead me to believe earnings will have a positive reaction.
