1ADBE trade ideas
Adobe Deathcross DailyThere seems to be some discrepency regarding the nature of the rising broadening wedge, with some thinking its bullish while others bearish. I believe it is bearish, following Bulkowski's chart pattern rules. Short should be placed just under or above 200DMA if deathcross follows through. For a rising broadening wedge to be valid three or more touches must be evident at resistance and support lines.
ADBE - tested trendline and reboundingS&P 500 is still staying put above 2300 critical support. I know it' s crazy scary now and volatility is just so great but I am willing to start nibbling when I see this. Stop loss below today's low by a few ticks and looking to protect profits with trailing stops . Trade carefully!

THE WEEK AHEAD: ADBE, ORCL EARNINGS; GDX/GDXJ, USO/XOP/XLE, EWZEARNINGS:
ADBE (89/65) and ORCL (77/60) both announce earnings on Thursday after market close and have the metrics I look for in earnings-related volatility contraction plays (>70% rank; >50% 30-day implied).
Pictured here: a short strangle paying 11.65 at the mid price camped out around the 16 delta. Its defined risk counterpart: the 265/275/395/405 ten-wide iron condor pays 2.46. Off hours markets are showing wide, so look to price setups out during the regular session.
The delta neutral ORCL April 17th 40/55 short strangle pays 1.45.

VIX/VIX DERIVATIVES:
VIX finished the week at 41.94, so it has been a rough ride for shorters who were in plays before this volatility expansion (points to self). The basic watch word is "patience"; volatility will abate at some point in time ... .

$ADBE bullish trade setup executed for 100% gains!ADBE has been on a great run since December but it looks like it is on the last leg of this run as it overbought on multiple indicators whilst near resistance.
