X trade ideas
$X United States Steel Pre Earnings TA
Much loved and very rewarding stock to trade in 2020/21 and with President Bidens push for huge infrastructure spending it will surely be a winner long term,
but as earnings are today how do we play it. ?
The stock has traded very technically and we could say is within a large Pennant formation right now , we have clear downtrend resistance and uptrend support.
If we break to the upside $26 & $30 are major PT's but we may see a touch on the lower trendline first.
We will not be carrying stock into earnings , rather wait and see do we buy the breakout or buy the decline if it happens.
X 22/21 Put Credit SpreadTechnical Confirmation: Strong reversal on X Daily chart provided technical confirmation that we are heading back up.
Execution: 22/21 put spread for this weeks expiry. 10% RoR (return on Risk)

FISH HOOK PATTERN ALERT on steel XOn the 15 min chart, IMO, X seems to have found its support right along that 21.18 level. The TTM indicator is Squeezing suggesting that volatility is preparing to make an aggressive move to either the upside of downside. The previous high was just recently tested, although price was rejected, price still maintains a bullish trend. The stochastic still has room to the upside, & The RSI is 45, and its posture indicates potential upside making this a nice fish hook pattern, this is more of a scalping opportunity. btw the sniper indicator just fired a buy shot.
X trendline bounce Bounced of trendline yesterday and broke thru fib .786
Stop loss at 23$.

Cup and Handle + value sectors set to jump high A beautifull Cup and handle habe been formed and confirmed on weekly - now retracing to the 61.8% Fibo as expected to jump even Higher.
im taking a start here at 21.6 as am not sure its gonna retrace to the 61.8 fibo. i d scale in if it does.
High probability of huge gain
Best buy areaStill not ready for me.
Fib level of 0.764 widely used by its waves and again the new range will meet the widely used ema 70 on the daily timeframe.
MACD is getting ready, and maybe it's ready even now.
X: New support confirmationIf price opens on Monday above the new support line (24 to 25), this could be an interesting opportunity to enter a long position. This industry and specialy X are being benefited by the new infreastructure plan.
X backtest needed before going higher?Can this go higher before a backtest of absolute peak of the cup formation? Might need backtest first. what do you think about X?

X trend holds FIB targets in playX trend break then we retrace to fib retracement points. For now no need to put in play as we are holding trend. Could continue to targets.
X Cup with Handle (Daily)Hot Potato Trader here, what is up fellow trader!
Key Points:
1. Cup with Handle pattern
2. Big Volume Clue at base of cup
3. 33% top of the cup to bottom of cup
4. > 30% increase price in prior uptrend
5. Improving RSI
6. U shape rather than V shape
One of the most important price patterns looks like a cup with a handle when the outline of the cup is viewed from the side. Cup patterns can last from 7 weeks to as long as 65 weeks, but most of them last for three to six months. The usual correction from the absolute peak (the top of the cup) to the low point (the bottom of the cup) of this price pattern varies from around the 12% to 15% range to upwards of 33% (as the case with this chart). A strong price pattern of any type should always have a clear and definite price uptrend prior to the beginning of its base pattern. You should look for at least a 30% increase in price in the prior uptrend, together with improving relative strength and a very substantial increase in trading volume at some points in the prior uptrend.
In most, but not all, cases, the bottom part of the cup should be rounded and give the appearance of a "U" rather than a very narrow "V." This characteristic allows the stock time to proceed through a needed natural correction, with two or three final little weak spells around the lows of the cup. The "U" area is important because it scares out or wears out the remaining weak holders and takes other speculators' attention away from the stock. A more solid foundation of strong owners who are much less apt to sell during the next advance is thereby established.
It's normal for growth stocks to create cup patterns during intermediate declines in the general market and to correct 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 times the market averages. Your best choices are generally stocks with base patterns that deteriorate the least during an intermediate market decline. Whether you're in a bull market or a bear market, stock downturns that exceed 2 1/2 times the market averages are usually too wide and loose and must be regarded with suspicion.

Infrastructure Bill helping SteelTechnical Analysis
We are breaking out to a 52-week high, with heavy volume (100%+ stronger volume intraday vs its 10-day average volume)
First measured move target is at $32, which is coincidental with a Fibonnaci 61.8% level.
OBV is supportive of the overall uptrend.
~~~
Take a look at USCR (US Concrete) which is rallying in my opinion based on the same infrastructure scenario.
