Halliburton’s Potential DowntrendHalliburton tried to rally in late September and early October. However, some traders may see evidence of a downtrend. The first pattern on today’s chart is the bearish-flag breakdown early last month. The oil-field service provider hit a 23-month low soon after, contrasting with the upward path of the broader market. That’s a potential sign of negative sentiment. Second is the $31.38 level where HAL closed immediately before breaking to the downside. Prices tested and failed at that location last week. Has new resistance been confirmed? Third, the stock has slipped back below its 21-day exponential and 50-day simple moving averages. That may indicate weakness in the short and intermediate terms. Finally, stochastics are sliding from an overbought condition. TradeStation has, for decades, advanced the trading industry, providing access to stocks, options and futures.

long $HAL on double bottom pattern, bullish sentiment for crudeI am going long NSE:HAL via options for the following reasons: NYMEX:CL1! closed the week before last at the second lowest level of the year. The following week, i.e. last week, oil emphatically rejected these lows with a 10% gain, showing the highest weekly trading volume of the year. This move continued today with another 3.7% gain. I believe that drilling activity is close to a bottom. Last week Baker Hughes reported 479 oil rigs in operation in North America. That's the second lowest weekly number since the beginning of 2022. I don't see Western countries ending their embargo of Russian oil any time soon, there's the potential for Israel to strike Iran's oil export infrastructure, the Strategic Petroleum Reserve continues to hover near 16-year lows, and there's always another hurricane brewing in the Gulf of Mexico. With all that going on, I believe that US producers will be smart to put a few well completions into their back pockets, just in case. NSE:HAL is the cheapest of the big three oil services companies on a fwd EV/EBITDA basis. Management expects 2024 FCF to grow at least 10% from 2023 (analysts penciled in 20% growth), and they expect drilling activity to increase in 2025 from 2024H2 levels. NSE:HAL currently presents a double bottom pattern on the daily chart. Since 2021 these patterns have had a very high probability to hit their target for $HAL. I think this trade is attractive on multiple time horizons. Mine is relatively short (I expect to be out before the Nov 7 earnings release). This is no recommendation, of course. Please do your own research.Longby matthiasPublished 111
Halliburton’s Potential Bearish FlagEnergy stocks continue to lag as the market anticipates greater supply and weaker demand from China. The backdrop may be creating downside risk in Halliburton, a key provider of oilfield services. The first pattern on today’s chart is the January low just below $33. Prices bounced there in June and July. They slid below in August, which may be viewed as a breakdown. A small rising channel has developed since then. Some traders may view that as a bearish flag. (Notice a similar formation in May, followed by a drop.) Third, the gap lower on July 19 after revenue missed could reflect weakening fundamentals. Next, our 2 MA Ratio custom script in the lower study shows the 8-day exponential moving average (EMA) staying below the 21-day EMA. That may reflect a bearish short-term trend. The longer-term trajectory could additionally be negative: HAL made a lower quarterly high in April versus October. The 50-day simple moving average (SMA) also had a “death cross” below the 200-day SMA in June.

Halliburton is at a major support that might hold. $ 35.84 - 36.22 is the current support to hold. If this does NOT hold then uptrend is likely over.

Stocks pairs trading: HAL vs RHILet's analyze the trade potential of Halliburton Company (HAL) and Robert Half International Inc. (RHI) by examining key financial metrics and market performance to determine reasons for potentially going long on HAL and short on RHI. Forward P/E Ratio: HAL's forward P/E of 9.50 is lower than RHI’s forward P/E of 17.94, suggesting that HAL is priced more attractively relative to future earnings expectations. This lower valuation might make HAL a more appealing investment. Year-to-Date Performance: HAL has seen a modest gain of 3.29% year-to-date, while RHI has faced a significant decline of 19.03%. HAL's positive performance amidst broader market conditions indicates a resilient position, whereas RHI's sharp decline suggests ongoing challenges. Profit Margin Comparison: HAL operates with a profit margin of 11.20%, while RHI’s profit margin is slightly lower at 5.74%. This suggests HAL is more efficient in converting sales into net income, an attractive trait for long-term investments. Market Performance Trends: HAL has experienced a performance dip in the past month but shows a strong quarterly performance with an 8.14% gain. On the other hand, RHI’s performance trends are negative across multiple periods, with a particularly notable 13.14% drop over the past quarter, indicating a potential for further decline. Analyst Recommendations: HAL has a more favorable recommendation score of 1.36 compared to RHI’s 3.71, indicating stronger analyst confidence in HAL’s market position and future performance. Decision: Long on 2 HAL: This position is supported by HAL’s lower forward valuation, impressive near-term earnings growth forecast, and stronger profit margins, which all suggest a potential for market revaluation upward. Short on 1 RHI: Given its higher valuation, weaker growth prospects in EPS, and significant reduction in sales, coupled with relatively poor market performance indicators, shorting RHI could be advantageous if these trends continue.by joynyPublished 0

Halliburton Makes a Higher LowHalliburton has been sliding since mid-October, but there could be signs that the energy-services giant has bottomed. The first pattern on today’s chart is last week’s bounce around $34, about $1 above the mid-January trough. Such a higher low could indicate that a downtrend is ending. Second, combined with the price action in the first half of December, a rounded bottom may have formed. Next, consider how the weekly close on Friday, January 26, surpassed the weekly peaks of late December. Such a higher high could also represent the end of a downtrend. Fourth, the January low around $33 closely matched a support and breakout area from the end of 2023’s second quarter and the start of its third quarter. Finally, HAL jumped above its 50-day simple moving average (SMA) three weeks ago. It dipped back below but is now challenging that line again. Is intermediate-term direction changing?

HAL HAL showing an upward trend. The blue lines shows an ascending triangle with strong opportunity to reach around $43 in next weeks. I start this analysis with current price at $35.34, with 21.7% potential gain. Also, you can see a strong resistance at that level. But if you fell more adventurous, the red lines above $43 range would be some long shot potential targets for HAL. Good Luck!

Basic trend analysis of HALHAL forming a beautiful upward trend since last 3 years. If we follow this pattern, it should reach around $43 in next 1~2 months. Also, SMA 7 just crossed SMA 22. Another price rise will confirm this. Be cautious at around $43, as there is a strong resistance at that level. Longby bigoyalPublished 3

HAL: aiming for support?A price action below 37.00 supports a bearish trend direction. Increase short exposure for a break below 37.00 as well. The target price is set at 35.00 (major support). The stop-loss price is set at 40.00. Breaking the confluence of the 200-day and 200-month simple moving average might trigger a cascade effect in the price.

HAL | Day trading | 10-24-2023 | ER dayNYSE:HAL *I'm already long based on Option flow and money flow and the last 3 months Oil prices before the earning day. Trend & Moving Averages: The stock has been on a downward trajectory recently, as evidenced by consistent lower highs and lower lows. It has been trading below the orange and blue moving averages, reinforcing the bearish trend. However, there is a sign of potential consolidation or reversal, as the stock price oscillates around the moving averages in the recent few candles. Support & Resistance Levels: Bullish Line at 41.91 USD: This seems to be a recent support level. The stock has bounced from this area a couple of times, suggesting its importance. Target Price 1 at 42.29 USD: This is a minor resistance level. If the stock can break and hold above this, it might aim for higher levels. Target Price 2 at 42.94 USD: A significant resistance level. If the stock can break through this, it might confirm a bullish reversal. Target Price 3 at 43.43 USD: This is the next potential target if the stock can sustain its momentum after breaking through the previous resistance levels. Volume: There's a noticeable spike in volume on the last candle. The increasing volume might suggest heightened interest or activity in the stock, but it's crucial to determine the nature (buying/selling) of this volume in conjunction with price movement. Ichimoku Cloud: The stock is trading below the shaded cloud area, typically seen as a bearish sign. For a bullish confirmation, one would like to see the stock price break and maintain above the cloud. Potential Reversal Indicators: The stock's recent behavior around the moving averages and its approach to the resistance levels might suggest a potential change in momentum or a period of consolidation. This needs to be watched closely, especially in conjunction with volume and other technical indicators. To conclude, while Halliburton Company has shown a bearish trend recently, there are signs of potential consolidation or a shift in momentum. It's essential to keep a close watch on how the stock behaves around the mentioned support and resistance levels.by shksprUpdated 0
