Ahead of the earnings results, analysts were projecting sales to grow 49.5% over the next 12 months. Roblox's Q1 results struggled to find many strong positives in these results. Its full-year bookings guidance of 15% year-on-year growth missed analysts' expectations, and investors are punishing the stock because management said it would grow at 20%+ annually for the next few years at its November 2023 Investor Day.

5/8/24 - $rblx - you can do better w/ less risk elsewhere5/8/24 - vrockstar - wow i'm not really a bear b/c the dollar denominator is a dumpster fire forever... but i'm writing again to warn that 6x sales for mediocre mgns (they should be MUCH better given it's a lot of UGC in this biz) and pretty poor cash generation requiring multi-year-legs of growth is simply not ownable in this tape. the stock since last print is looking v unhealthy (do yourself a favor and divide this one by QQQ to see the true comp of performance - frankly you'd best sell here and buy Q's and i'm not even sure that's a great idea at this moment in the month - that's another conversation, however). Again, i'm not actively shorting this print, but if i owned the stock I'd be dumping it now. Hard to dip buy a miss here. frankly the stock's probably worth sub $25. we can debate this in comments if you'd like. i'd like to own it, but at this valuation for the last year and a half... (the stock price is flat - be honest - you'd lost purchasing power), the valuation is not cheap... your risk reward is very poor heading into this print. stock is acting w a lot of hope here.Shortby VROCKSTAR0

RBLX - weekly time frame analysishi Traders, Let's have a look at RBLX on the weekly time frame. RBLX has been in a accumulation zone since May 2022 when the price found a bottom. However, the price has been getting rejected at the 47 $ resistance which is also a 0,786 fib level. From another hand, the accumulation has last forever and not sure if we're going to get another retest of the bottom. 2 scenarios which are shown on the chart: 1. Buy at the bottom if the price goes down. Entry: 25-26 dollars. Targets/take profit levels are shown on the chart (each fib level may act as a resistance so do not hesitate to take profit) stop loss: 22-23 $ 2. If the price breaks the resistance at 47 $ and retests and confirm this level as a support, you may take a long position. Targets the same as in the Scenario 1. If you're patient , 95 $ and even 110 $ may be reached, but it will take some time.Longby vf_investment223

The Gap Between What Is and What Will BeThere are 5 basic ways to trade a Gap or any line. In this video, I discuss two ways to enter the market using a Gap before I make the trade plan. The Gap entry techniques by themselves are of little use, but if we make a few distinctions in market structure and the process of a swing cycle, they can become functional. Swing cycles have a process that they go through. As long as we understand that process we can view Gaps in the light of where they happen in that process. I'm going to focus these two Gap entry techniques in the lower portion of the reaction leg at the bottom pivot of a swing. The Gaps are what make up the pivot portion of the swing. If you observe markets and swings you will often see this distinct pivot portion of a swing, it looks like a U at the bottom of a reaction leg as the buyers wrestle control back from the sellers.
