Time to buy? Too much negative press. Buy in Fear. Apple has faced a significant amount of negative press recently, which has created a lot of fear and critical perceptions. This situation indicates that in times of fear, you should buy, and in times of greed, you should sell. As a result, I have taken a substantial long position on Apple.
The flag pattern is nearly complete, suggesting that a move is imminent. My stop loss is set at $196, with an expected profit from a positive breakout at $223, indicating potential gains of over 10%. There is further upside potential to exceed >$230.
Apple is a strong long-term hold regardless of current fluctuations. It has an extensive and mature ecosystem, and this is not a company I would bet against. If you already own Apple products, you understand how unlikely it is that you would ever switch to something else.

My dear followers,
This is my opinion on the APPLE next move:
The asset is approaching an important pivot point 196.46
Bias - Bullish
Safe Stop Loss - 193.21
Technical Indicators: Supper Trend generates a clear long signal while Pivot Point HL is currently determining the overall Bullish trend of the market.
Goal - 202.06
About Used Indicators:
For more efficient signals, super-trend is used in combination with other indicators like Pivot Points.

WISH YOU ALL LUCK
AAPL breakout coming soonWhich way will it squeeze? I share my thoughts if AAPL can hold above 200.
*technically showing caution signs (bearish, but can flip)
*news is affecting the market greatly (esp AAPL re: tarriffs)
*RSI & MACD need a positive signal
*204, 205, 208 immediate targets to be focused on imo
Have a great weekend!
$AAPL In ConsolidationNASDAQ:AAPL is consolidating here in a wedging pattern. I do not know which way this will resolve. But, since I rarely if ever short, I am looking on the long side of a trade. The thing I like about a consolidation pattern like this is, you know when you are wrong very quickly. My plan is to take a ¼ size long position if / when it moves above the 50 DMA (red) with a stop just below the most recent low (which would also correspond to dropping below the lower wedging trendline.
Then if it can break out over the upper downtrend line, I will look to build out my position. I thought this would be a good one to put on your watchlist. If you like the idea, please make it your own so that it fits within your trading plan.
AAPL Breaking Structure! Gamma Says Caution — Is $195 Next? 🍎 AAPL Breaking Structure! Gamma Says Caution — Is $195 Next? 🔻
🧬 GEX Options Sentiment Analysis:
* Gamma Key Levels:
* CALL Walls:
* $202.50 (moderate resistance)
* $205 = Gamma Wall / Call Resistance
* $210–215 = Higher walls unlikely to reach short-term without catalyst
* PUT Walls:
* $198 = 2nd PUT Wall and Heavy Volume Level (HVL)
* $195.70 = Highest negative NET GEX / PUT magnet
* Below $195 opens risk to $192.50, $190 (GEX7/10 cluster)
* Options Metrics:
* IVR: 21.6
* IVx avg: 30.2
* PUT Flow: 0% (!!) – no PUT buyers showing up (caution on reversals)
* GEX Sentiment: 🔴🔴🔴🔴 (very bearish tilt)
* Interpretation:
* AAPL is hugging the gamma flip zone at $198–$200. If it breaks and stays under $198, dealers may accelerate hedging, sending it down toward $195/$192.
* Call side is weak; momentum buyers missing.
🧠 15-Minute SMC Structure Breakdown:
* Current Price: $197.18
* Structure:
* CHoCH confirmed just below supply at $198.50 → bearish sign.
* Repeated rejections from the supply zone (pink box).
* Broke ascending wedge/trendline support on rising volume — bearish pattern confirmation.
* Demand box sits near $195.70–$196.50.
* Volume:
* Bearish volume increasing during rejection = potential for trend continuation lower.
⚔️ Trade Scenarios:
🟥 Bearish Breakdown Setup:
* Trigger: Confirmed close below $196.50 with increasing volume.
* Target 1: $195.70 (GEX/SMC demand)
* Target 2: $192.50 (GEX7 magnet)
* Stop-loss: $198.50
Strong confluence with gamma, SMC structure, and volume break = high-probability short.
🟩 Bullish Reversal Setup (Low Probability):
* Trigger: Reclaim of $198.89 with conviction
* Target 1: $200
* Target 2: $202.50 (CALL wall)
* Stop-loss: Below $196.45
Only consider if SPY/QQQ stage reversal bounce and AAPL leads.
💡 My Thoughts:
* AAPL looks weak and vulnerable heading into Tuesday.
* If price loses $196.45, gamma + structure suggests fast flush to $195 and possibly $192.
* This is not the spot to go long blindly — let the level reclaim first.
* PUT flow being 0% despite this setup suggests retail hasn't stepped in — this could change rapidly.
🔚 Conclusion:
AAPL is breaking down from structure and trending toward gamma PUT support. Options sentiment and Smart Money structure are both aligning for bearish continuation — short bounces are sell opportunities unless $199+ is reclaimed with strength.

AaplSimple trade..
The moving averages shown on the chart are the 20/50 ma.. if aapl closes above 206 then long aapl back to 213.00
If aapl drops below 200.00 then short price back to 193 gap close..
7$ move either way..
Aapl overall trend is neutral .
I do not think aapl will break above weekly 20sma at 215.00 if it does pump.
215 would be a great area to Reload for a short back down
Weekly chart.
Descending Triangle in Apple?Apple has struggled all year, and evidence of a downtrend may be growing in the tech giant.
The first pattern on today’s chart is this month’s lower high relative to mid-May. Combined with the May 7 low of $193.25, some traders may think a descending triangle is taking shape. That’s a potentially bearish formation.
Second, TradeStation data shows that AAPL is the only trillion-dollar company now trading below its 200-day simple moving average (SMA). The 200-day SMA has also turned lower. Those points may confirm long-term price action is less bullish.
Next, prices remaining below the falling 50-day SMA may signal intermediate-term weakness.
Fourth, short-term trends may be weakening: The 8-day exponential moving average (EMA) is below the 21-day EMA and MACD is falling.
Finally, AAPL is one of the most active underliers in the options market. That could help traders take positions with calls and puts.

APPLE: 3 year Channel Up targets $285.Apple is marginally bearish on its 1D technical outlook (RSI = 43.788, MACD = -0.260, ADX = 30.978) as the recent weakness impeded the price from making the decisive bullish break-out above it. The 1W RSI structure though indicates that this is a bottom formation and it is evident on the Channel Up that the April 7th low has been the start of the new bullish wave. The first bullish wave which also started after a -32% correction, made a first peak on the 1.236 Fibonacci extension. We are bullish on Apple long term, TP = 285.00.

AAPL — Broadening Range and Accumulation Phase. Targeting $300Apple stock has been moving in a broadening pattern for an extended period, showing signs of accumulation. This price behavior suggests a potential bullish breakout. The upside target in the coming months is around $300, possibly by fall or winter. However, a corrective scenario remains on the table, with a potential pullback toward the $165–144 range, which could present a strong long entry opportunity. From a fundamental perspective, investor interest is likely to increase ahead of Apple’s expected product presentation in the fall, which historically supports bullish sentiment in the stock.
Apple (AAPL) Stock Analysis Apple's stock (AAPL) is currently trading at $201.15, reflecting a modest uptick of 0.47% today. Despite this slight gain, the stock has experienced a 22% decline year-to-date, underperforming its tech peers.
Technical Overview
The stock is navigating a descending broadening pattern, indicating ongoing bearish momentum. Notably, a "death cross" formation occurred in April, where the 50-day moving average crossed below the 200-day moving average, signalling potential further declines.
Support Levels: $193 and $169
Resistance Levels: $215 and $237
A break above the $215 resistance could pave the way for a rally towards $237. Conversely, a drop below the $193 support might lead to a decline towards $169.
Macroeconomic Factors
Recent political developments have introduced volatility. President Trump's proposal of a 25% tariff on iPhones not manufactured in the U.S. has raised concerns. In response, Apple is reportedly shifting a significant portion of its production to India to mitigate potential tariff impacts.
Fundamental Metrics
Market Capitalization: Approximately $3.28 trillion.
Price-to-Earnings (P/E) Ratio: 33.72.
Earnings Per Share (EPS): $6.42.
While Apple's P/E ratio is above its 10-year average, indicating a premium valuation, the company's robust earnings and strategic initiatives continue to attract investor interest.
Conclusion
Apple's stock is at a critical juncture, influenced by technical patterns and macroeconomic factors. Investors should monitor the $215 resistance and $193 support levels closely. A break in either direction could signal the stock's next significant move.
At monthly supportSymmetrical triangle at a monthly support. Breakout is coming soon, could be either way but I think is most likely to go to the upside following the previous two continuation patterns. Price is just over the lower vertex of the triangle, so we have a tight SL, it triggers if a weekly candles breaks down the triangle. I have calls that expire 3 months from now strike 200. Buying the stock is much safer. Good luck.

Is Apple setting up for a move? Liquidity sweep + FVGWe're keeping a close eye on Apple (AAPL) after a clear liquidity sweep around $198.40 and $198.70. Although the overall trend remains weakly bearish, the technical elements of the VEP Trader strategy are starting to align for a potential setup — if the market reacts from this institutional zone.
🔎 VEP Context:
Weak bearish trend confirmed via Squeeze Momentum on the 1D chart.
Clean sweep of prior liquidity zones.
Price enters a 15-minute Fair Value Gap, putting us on alert for a possible reversal.
🛠️ Setup Under Watch:
Potential Entry: above $198.70 (inside 15m FVG)
Suggested Stop Loss: above $200.00
TP1: $195.15
TP2: $193.25
👉 No confirmation yet, but if a new FVG forms and Squeeze confirms direction on the 5M or 2M, this may evolve into a clean bearish play.
✅ Key Confluences
Element Current Status
Liquidity Swept ✅
FVG Active on 15m 🟧
Trend Weak bearish 🟡
Confirmation Still pending 🔄
🧠 Final Thoughts
We don’t trade emotions — we trade structure. If momentum aligns and structure forms, AAPL may provide a clean, technical opportunity with solid R:R.
Watching for institutional reaction.

Upside Targets:
1️⃣ $209.99 — First resistance level to watch for profit booking

3️⃣ $223.50 — Stronger resistance, potential for trend continuation
4️⃣ $230.50 — Longer-term target signaling significant upside potential
Downside Targets:
1️⃣ $185.65 — Immediate support, key level for bulls to defend
2️⃣ $179.13 — A more significant retracement level, watch for bounce or breakdown
3️⃣ $172.13 — Possible floor if selling pressure intensifies
4️⃣ $165.12 — Strong support zone, critical for trend reversal risk
Support Level: $192.17 — Acts as the first buffer zone; a break below could trigger further downside
Resistance Level: $203.49 — Short-term resistance; a clear breakout above this level would open the door to upside targets
APPLE Big circle building editionSmart phones, some of them look pretty nice tbh.
However, something I read recently about cloud storage really interested me with apple.
Among other things obviously, like big stacks of cash.
Apple has a lot of money essentially.
Apple has a lot of talented people.
SF real estate is scary.
TA and chart description.
basically, we are under a short term trend break and have a lot of indicators pushing a top with a drastic overextension, so you might expect a possible rebound from all of that in alignment. Which you can then notice the gap at 154, and see how it can close that gap and essentially climb in a stable path to nearly 400 after creating some massive support at the 263 mark.
Excited to see how this one moves in price, Excited to see what apple comes out with in the future.
Good luck trading.
Guideline is to show the idea, try not to follow it, instead focus on the price targets and trends.
