$VZ 5G will be a a money spinner for Verizon. Difficult to call Verizon on earnings, most probably it will be a beat on earnings and revenue, but will it satisfy investors and analysts. The future is very bright for VZ with the roll-out of 5G networks so if you hold the stock its a keeper with the added incentive of a nice dividend. Short term, we think that the retrace may have a little more room to run so will sit and watch this play out.

$VZ Short is a HIGH probability $VZ Has created a horizontal pattern since December 2018 and is looking to have a major fall within the next 1 - 2 months. While only risking 1.5% the potential profit until the next support line is 4%. Falling to the second support line would be 8.5% profit. The last and final support line until a major break of pattern would be 12.5% potential for profit. Definitely something to keep an eye on.

Short Verizon in mid-late FebruaryBased on a multi-month descending triangle formation and a big earnings miss, I'm looking to short Verizon at around $56. The short term has a good bullish candle at the end of last week after bouncing off a long standing horizontal support, but I expect it to bounce again when it hits the descending trend line at both price and RSI. Stop loss would be around $58 in case is does break to the upside. Take profit is $50, a 1:3 risk:reward ratio.
VZ bouncing off $55 mark$55 mark worked as resistance during the fast years, it might switch over to support if the price crosses below $57. After that, it will most likely cross above that $57 mark.
The green curve matches pretty well with the price movement and might play a role in trying to keep the price above $57. I believe this is unlikely because, at this point, the curve is pretty steep.
The next earnings call on 29 January 2019 will probably decide whether the price crosses these lines, just like the one on 23 October 2018 pushed the price above $55 resistance level.
I have placed a buy order around $55 since I can get out if it goes to $54.60. I have not yet predicted a good profit level though.
