CARA looks like it wants the CARA de MOONCara Therapeutics, Inc. (CARA) highly impulsive ... i do not like stocks in a toppy market, but this being a biotech and technically speaking, i would place a stoploss or trailing stop as it approaches highs between 25 and 27, watchful for breakout to upside or downside... she looks like she wants 30+ before retracing potentially as deep as it has done in the past.
CARA Will Be a Huge Winner!!! $100 in 1 6-12 monthsNASDAQ:CARA Has been consolidating for over 5 years now and is flirting with its ATH.
The promising biotech company only has a market cap of $1B which makes a 5x move very easy and fast. This is more of a longer-term play and can increase well over 5x
Stock may dip before the meteoric rise but hard to say with earnings coming first week of August.
Thank you for reading.
Best,

Cara Therapeutics - Outbreak or Selloff?Cara Therapeutics is back on the strong resistance line that has been tested 4 times. Only once, in June 2017, was this briefly broken after FDA breakthrough therapy designation.
CR845 reduces itching in patients with chronic liver insufficiency. This brought in June 2018 3 large pharmaceutical companies on the plan, who wanted to market this product against once and milestone payments.
Outlook:
To confirm the breakout, a week-end above the blue resistance line is necessary. Following this, a retest of this resistance would be ideal to confirm this as a support zone.
If share price can not establish a weekly close above, is to expect a subsequent sale.

CARA to meet 50MA soon?I think we may have topped out for now. If you are not in a bullish position right now, perhaps it is wise to hold until resistance is broken, or wait for it to retrace to the 50MA. Indicators show that we're a tiny tad extended atm.
Take a look at ZYNE, if CBD Pharma is your game.
Just my 2 cents. It's free. Trade with caution.
Positive Results From KALM-1 Pivotal Phase 3 Trial of KORSUVA™finance.yahoo.com

So what
Any time a clinical-stage biotech announces positive results for its lead candidate, it's good news. But today's results are especially great for Cara for several reasons.
The improvement in itching for patients receiving Korsuva was off the charts. The key metric in determining statistical significance in clinical studies is the p-value, a calculated probability of how meaningful the obtained results actually are. A p-value of 0.05 or less is considered to be statistically significant. For the primary endpoint in Cara's study, the p-value was 0.000019.
Cara Therapeutics CEO Derek Chalmers noted that the company was "particularly encouraged by the early response with Korsuva injection." He said that the statistically significant difference between Korsuva and placebo was observed after only one week of treatment. Even better, the significant benefit from Korsuva was sustained through 12 weeks.
Also, Korsuva didn't raise any safety concerns. There were some adverse events for patients in the phase 3 study, but they were similar across patients taking Korsuva and those on placebo. The most common adverse event was diarrhea, which was reported for 9.5% of the patients receiving Korsuva injection versus 3.7% of the patients in the placebo group.
Now what
This was a critical step for Cara, but there are still a couple of hurdles to jump. The biotech must complete another ongoing phase 3 clinical study of Korsuva injection in treating CKD-aP patients on hemodialysis. Cara expects to announce the results from this second study later this year. If those results are positive, the company will move quickly to file for U.S. regulatory approval of the drug.
There's no sure thing when it comes to the regulatory approval process. But based on what Cara announced today, the chances of eventual approval of Korsuva in the CKD-aP indication appear to be quite good.
$CARA HIGHLY UNUSUAL OPTIONS ACTIVITY. CANNABIS V OPIOIDCara Therapeutics was flagged on friday due to the exceptionally high amount of options traded, over 340% above the average volume. NASDAQ:CARA disappointed investors with first quarter results with a higher loss than expected, but the company has $156 million in cash available to continue to develop new Cannabinoid drugs. Cara specialises in the development of pain relief drugs and their current project is seen as a means of replacing the highly addictive Opioids.
The stock is currently sitting on support while selling of in sympathy with the entire market, a bounce would present a good entry. To complete the EW count, $25 is a maximum wave 5 target in our opinion, while setting $22.50 as your initial target to bank profits.
