Cloud-computing vs crude oil: Lessons in a Dramatic ChartOne of the biggest events in the history of the Dow Jones Industrial Average happened last August when Salesforce.com replaced Exxon Mobil as an index member. A 21-year software company elbowed out a transnational giant tracing its origins to John D. Rockefeller and the dawn of modern capitalism.
Despite the stunning endorsement, things haven’t worked out so well for CRM since then. Its shares peaked above $280 one week later and then turned lower. (That was a giddy moment for growth stocks because Apple and Tesla had just split their shares.)
Additionally, TradeStation analytics show that CRM has gone 172 sessions without a new 52-week high. That’s the longest for any member of the Dow Jones Industrial Average. XOM, in contrast, hit a new high yesterday.
It’s a good lesson in froth and exuberance: Just when it seems things can never go wrong, it’s often a sign of the top. Other adages that could apply are "buy the rumor, sell the news," or "be fearful when others are greedy."
The chart above compares CRM to XOM since they traded places in the Dow. Notice how XOM lagged for a couple more months but then ripped higher after November 9’s vaccine news ignited the reopening trade.
Switching to CRM's candlestick chart below, some challenging patterns may have emerged. The 50-day simple moving average (SMA) slid beneath the 200-day SMA on March 22, resulting in a “death cross.” Next is the descending channel in place since the peak in early September. If that trend continues, it could imply move toward $180.

CRM trade ideas
crm baby ik there is a lot on this graph but lets break it down
bull flag yes we all know that
short term cup and handle if this support holds
higher volume today
went to a fib retracement level
bellow the bottom bollinger band
sells on the SAR and super trend but i think those are dip buys in disguise
CRM bueno i think we break out this time
also the RSI is at like 42 i think
CRM going DOOOWWWWNNNthe 4hr EMA line needs to be touched. the line in Blue. so it won't have any momentum to go up until it hits that mark.
Cup and HandleThe handle low is very, very close to mid cup. There would be a lot of support in this zone. Possible stop below this area.
CRM has struggled to break through a channel down. CRM has broken through, just crossing my fingers it does not go back inside.
There is a battle on the handle between the bulls and the bears. A 3 Outside Up candlestick pattern appeared which is bullish, followed by a 3 Outside Down pattern which is bearish.
The 3 outside down pattern occurs when price is moving upward and begins with a green candle. This is followed by a red engulfing candle that has a higher open and a lower close that the previous green candle so the red candle swallows or "engulfs" the green candle. The third candle in this pattern has a lower close than the preceding 2 candles.
A 3 outside up pattern (bullish) is opposite, and the first candle is a red candle followed by a green engulfing candle, and finally a candle with a higher close.
Bearish candle patterns do best in a bear market and bullish candles do best in a bull market. There are some candles and candlestick patterns that are stronger than others, but the often short term signals they give can help with entries and exits.

Sell SALES?We seem to have a lovely kijun bounce on the weekly and all roads lead to 200. The monthly however closed on a bullish note so i would reduce my size on this one.
Entry: 229.48
TP: 201.00
SL: 241.00
R: 2.47
Position size should be reduced!
Crm , 1 final hurdle Not going to do a big chart of CRM since there are dozens of them in ideas. Found some resistance that's been stagnating the break last 2weeks. Starting to form a Inverted H&S in the RSI. Needs some volume here to push through. Today's resistance is 239, a move to 240 would be considered a breakout.
CRM long target my gold boxGreat volume backing price action.
Obvious profit taking point.
Will be looking at the gold box for target.

CRM Setting up to break this downtrend. After gapping up CRM has moved in this downward channel. If we can clear this 235 level CRM could make a run back to ATH level.
Channel down Cup and HandleCup is forming, but has done so before and failed during this channel down. I am watching this one closely and will update when channel line is broken. If you are watching this and I forget, please remind me. (o:
I have a whopping one share to eyeball this. If I felt totally confident, I would have more. CRM has failed at the channel upper trendline a few times. CRM broke up from a bearish rising wedge when it entered the DOW< doing well short term, yet sealit a long drop in the long term. Best we can do is enter close to support.
Like a triangle, or a rectangle, after a certain amount of tries, the security will break one way or the other. There should be strong gap support.
Will she stay or will she go?
No recommendation.
The only thing that never changes is change
Channel Down ResistanceCRM hit the resistance of the top trendline of the channel down. Possible cup forming which may help this scenario. Remains to be seen.
The channel down trendlines do seem to be narrowing somewhat which is somewhat bullish.
The 50, 100 and 200 day moving averages are trying to tangle.
Neutral/no recommendation
