Duh! It makes perfect sense now.You don't spend a lifetime throwing it all behind every semiconductor start-up known to silicon vallley if you don't know physics. I am looking forward to the new trajactory of this (almost) old dog.
INTC trade ideas
INTC LONGIt seems to me that we are in a nice accumulation area for INTC with more positive news coming out from the company and large volumes around $20 level. The biggest scare seems to be current market volatility but so far the stock was unfazed. I'd say this is a good spot to buy for anyone interested in this company.
INTC | If Keeps This up it will get Past it's Technical IssuesINTC makes CNBC news as top mover today 3-12-25, it needs the attention, why... if Intel keeps this up it will get past it's technical issues which I think it will; buyout rumors are very real and possible and it's getting the attention it DOES deserve, I think it surprises the market with moves higher. Apple or Samsung could use all the patents and history on this mega-company, at this price I feel it's a steal absolutely. Someone must be eying taking it out outright IMO.
Strong technicals are forming right here and now.
INTC - Basing out for LEAP'sI have liked this chart for "too" long.
Long term basing out, almost gave up the bag near that $18 area, but doubled up on a few leaps and some shares.
Seems to be breaking out of the downtrend, and now retesting the trend line...
Would rather go with price levels here vs over shooting a trend line...
$18 - $20 this week?
I'm only accumulating shares, and swing trading option positions several months out for safety.
I'm not sure on day trading the stock on short term options.
Bullish pendant 4hrAfter looking and waiting to see what kind of pattern this plays out. It’s look like a bullish pendant. I say we may hit 27-33 range. But with current market situation it may fail. But we will see

Long INTC on the pullback at the open
Hi, I'm buying INTC via Call Options
INTC 250321C24 @ 1.71
The broader market needs to trade higher and INTC needs to have follow-through buying for me to feel comfortable..
Let's see how this play out.
Intel: "So the last shall be first..."As the Holy Bilble says in Matthew 20:16, "So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few chosen."
We agree. After our analysis, one stock comes into focus: INTEL - a long-term buy candidate. Investment horizon: 5-10 years, the right time to get in could be now.
This is not a buy recommendation, just an exchange of ideas. You have to use your own analysis and your own head and make your own decisions.
Bearish Pennant Forming - Expect Another DropWith no news in sight, I would expect another sell off coming soon. Decreasing volume as well. I would expect to see ~23$ at least by the end of the week, if not sooner, once $24.50 support breaks.
Intel (INTC): Bullish Signs Emerging, Eyes on $75 ATHIntel (INTC) has started to show strong bullish signals, confirming a reversal after refusing to drop below $18. The stock has since climbed to $27, signaling renewed investor confidence and a potential breakout in the coming months.
Key Resistance Levels: The Path to $75
$30: The first critical resistance level that Intel must break to continue its bullish momentum.
$37: A key milestone that, if surpassed, would strengthen the uptrend.
$75 (All-Time High): The ultimate long-term target.
If Intel successfully breaks above $37, it could trigger a sustained rally toward its ATH of $75, potentially supported by industry advancements and stronger financial performance.
Risk Scenario: Consolidation and Potential Drop to $12
If Intel fails to break $30, it could enter a multi-year consolidation phase.
A prolonged range between $12 and $30 could play out if bullish momentum fades.
In a worst-case scenario, Intel could hunt the $12 level, creating a long-term accumulation zone before attempting another breakout.
Summary: Bullish Structure with Key Levels to Watch
Intel’s refusal to drop below $18 and its climb to $27 signal growing bullish momentum.
Break Above $30: Signals continuation to $37, then a long-term push toward $75.
Failure at $30: Could lead to a multi-year consolidation, ranging between $12 and $30.
The next few months will be crucial in determining whether Intel resumes a strong uptrend or enters a long accumulation phase before the next major breakout.
Rising Wedge Pattern Forming INTCSell the news. INTC still has yet to prove itself. This pump based on acquisition talk is just that at this point....talk. With this rising wedge pattern forming, I expect there to be a drop soon. Puts are too cheap and once the hype dies down money will pull out.
Intel ($INTC) at a Crossroads: Breakup Talks, Market PressuresIntel Corporation (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:INTC ) finds itself at a critical juncture as reports emerge about Broadcom and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSMC) exploring potential deals that could split the storied chipmaker into two entities. This revelation comes amidst Intel’s ongoing struggles in maintaining its dominance in the semiconductor industry, intensified by leadership changes, manufacturing setbacks, and increasing market competition.
Broadcom & TSMC’s Interest in Intel
The Wall Street Journal recently reported that Intel rivals Broadcom and TSMC are each considering deals that would divide the company. Broadcom is reportedly analyzing Intel’s chip design and marketing business, with discussions about a potential bid, though any move would depend on securing a partner for Intel’s manufacturing division. Meanwhile, TSMC has expressed interest in taking control of Intel’s chip plants, potentially through an investor consortium.
The U.S. government is closely monitoring these developments, as Intel is viewed as a company of national security significance. Reports indicate that the Trump administration is unlikely to support a foreign entity operating Intel’s U.S. factories, adding an additional layer of complexity to any potential deal.
Intel was a major beneficiary of the Biden administration’s push to onshore semiconductor manufacturing, securing a $7.86 billion government subsidy. However, the company has struggled to execute its ambitious plans. Former CEO Pat Gelsinger set high expectations for Intel’s manufacturing and AI capabilities, but his failure to deliver led to lost contracts, a 60% drop in the company’s stock value in 2023, and layoffs affecting 15% of its workforce.
Technical Outlook
Intel’s stock (NASDAQ: NASDAQ:INTC ) closed last Friday’s session down 2.2%, but premarket trading on Monday shows signs of recovery with a 0.06% uptick. The technical indicators suggest that NASDAQ:INTC could be on the cusp of a bullish reversal, contingent on broader market sentiment.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) for Intel stood at 68 on Friday. This reading positions the stock near the overbought threshold but also signals that momentum is building towards a potential breakout. Also, Intel is currently trading above key moving averages, reinforcing a bullish sentiment in the near term.
Should a pullback occur, immediate support is found at the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level, which may serve as a demand zone for NASDAQ:INTC shares. In the event of extreme selling pressure, a drop to the one-month low of $18.50 could materialize, though such a scenario would require a significant bearish catalyst.
If bullish momentum takes hold, a breakout above resistance levels could push Intel’s stock higher, aligning with analyst expectations. The 12-month price forecast for NASDAQ:INTC stands at $25.69—an 8.86% increase from its current price.
Conclusion
Intel’s potential breakup remains speculative, but the fundamental challenges it faces underscore why such discussions are taking place. While concerns about cash flow, leadership changes, and market competition weigh on the stock, technical indicators suggest that NASDAQ:INTC may be approaching a bullish reversal.
With a critical trading week ahead, investors should monitor key support and resistance levels while staying informed about any further developments in the Broadcom and TSMC discussions. If Intel successfully capitalizes on government support and restructures its strategy, a resurgence in investor confidence could follow, pushing NASDAQ:INTC back into bullish territory.

INTC: Is selling going to get more intense?As NVDA is eating all its competitor's lunches, INTC seems to be the one left far behind than the others. It has a lot of work to do, and the playing field is only getting rougher with tariffs, reduced demand and increased costs. Once a PC powerhouse, is now the producers of the lowest performing chips with higher prices and no one seems to want; unless heavily discounted. So, until something changes fundamentally, the technicals will look pretty grim. As long as the price action cannot break above $39, the recent bounce can look like a 1/2, 1/2 setup to the downside for a larger wave 3, 4 and 5 to ensue. Only above $39, we can say the $18.5 low was the completion of cycle wave 2 and INTC might be entering a new golden age of cycle wave 3. But, for that, the fundamentals will need to back up the technicals. For now, the fib targets and the POC on volume profile pointing at single digit price.
Intc is still selling!!Looking for a buy around $9. Price has been consolidating for 25 years and we may finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. Be patient and wait for confirmation. I think this will be an investment to the upside not a trade.

$INTC Nice Long Base – Ready to Breakout?NASDAQ:INTC oh how the mighty fall from grace. But so much for nostalgia. INTC has been basing since August 2024 for over 6 months. It looks like it has support around $19. It has tried to get moving a few times but no go.
Today it has tested both the longer term and shorter-term downtrend lines (DTL). It is testing today on the news that JD VANCE said AI will be built in the US. I have tried this name before and have been stopped out for a small loss. I have an alert set on the long term DTL. Should that trigger, I will want a convincing close above it. Looks to me, risk is well defined with a stop under $19. At current price that is about an 11% Stop Loss. Too much for me, so I would go to a lower timeframe to see if there is a better Risk Reward stop. All TBD.
I am only posting this because I like the longer base and thought you might want it on your watchlist as well.
This is my idea, if you like it, make it your own to fit “your” trading plan.
Intel (INTC) Aiming for 21 $21.50 by the Deadline DateI’m looking at a potential bounce for Intel (INTC) as the market flirts with the $20 zone. Rather than using a stop loss, I’m using a deadline date as my exit strategy—if INTC doesn’t trade near my target by then, I plan to step aside.
Entry & Target: Enter around the current levels, aiming for $21.50.
Time-Based Exit: If price hasn’t made significant progress by the noted deadline (see chart), I’ll close the position.
This is a higher-risk trade without a fixed stop loss. Keep position sizes appropriate for your risk tolerance.
INTC HAVE POTENTIAL This WEEK FORECAST
Opportunity for INTC. This setup is my trading idea/plan, if you want to follow: trade at your own risk (TAYOR).
Risk Factors:
1. Market conditions, unexpected news, or external events could impact the trade.
2. Always use risk management strategies to protect your capital.

Intel Time To Wake UpIntel, which has received a very strong reaction, I think it will now try the above prices. Especially the last 3 dips it made look good. We can also expect a rapid rise when it breaks the falling resistance. I think pullbacks will be a buying opportunity. The 29 area awaits as a serious resistance.
