11/5/24 - $celh - No edge. Pains me to sit this Q out.11/5/24 :: VROCKSTAR :: NASDAQ:CELH
No edge. Pains me to sit this out.
- trading this thing around and following the FUD all over social media has me confused. i'll admit.
- on one hand, these things are flying off the shelves and scanner data looks great (that's sell thru!)
- on the other hand, i've been seeing a lot of discounting
- on the other OTHER hand (yes i have three hands), clearly NASDAQ:PEP is trying to get thru over-ordered inventory esp into a non-summer season in north america which might inform the sell thru
- google trends is waning, though this isn't the type of purchase that typically shows up as being super high signal on google trends... when have you googled "where to get a Coke" as an example, but nonetheless it's part of my due diligence mosaic
- now the latest we hear from mgmt is they're looking to build own capacity. honestly, that's more of a positive than a negative, given there's clearly enough reason to start pulling this inhouse and not letting NASDAQ:PEP jerk the brand to their whim
- on the other hand, this will cost $... capex dollars... at a time when NASDAQ:PEP is also probably not going to re-stock big (or go smaller) into the winter time period... and where Int'l launch while i'm sure it's going well (let's be honest those flavors are rockin')... is probably also low margin.
- so you're facing a quarter where there's likely to be a lot of 'splaining and taking a position tuesday night into elections is also whack enough
- let's say margins come in weak, they say "growth step down b/c pep means this is the bottom"... in a lot of ways, you buy that dip if it dips, but it *will* dip, because the market is hating stuff that's not just beating and raising. in fact it's only shipping things higher that are crushing and raising. this is very hard for me to believe with $celh.
- and valuation at high 20s PE while in a LT context for this brand is NOT expensive IMVHO and LSD fcf yield is "good enough", it's just too much risk into this print.
- on the person fronts, as those of you who follow me know, i've had some nice wins lately w/ the OTC:GDLC then NASDAQ:NXT crush, after some big wins earlier this year too. I LIKE TO GO BIG. often when i'm tip toeing around is where i lose focus, and i trade poorly.
- so a bit of this move is my own situation heading into election night, feeling unclear what's happening here, having not too much confidence in mgmt's ability to communicate even if nothing's wrong but the quarter's meh.
- if this ships, it ships. after the result... who knows. maybe i jump back on if/when this thing is up 10%. i doubt it.
- the options chain is also fairly locked up in the low 30s here so a move beyond $33-34 would take some real surprise (good surprise).
- my best guess is this thing trades lower. probably not in the low 20s like the bears are expecting, probably not even in the mid 20s, but 26-27-28 not out of the question.
- let's see. alas, idk the future, so i go with high conviction bets. and this one leaves me so confused into the print in such a weird risk week for the US... that i'd rather act with high cash balance (nearly 45% of my stack RN! and i'm long calls on a lot of things... will write later... to fill up my exposure)
lmk how you see it. i'd love to gain more clarity on this b/c i would also love to hold it long term near the lows

Celsius Energizes a PushCELH is gaining strong bullish momentum, with a gap forming around the $30.00 level. A breakout above the $48.00 resistance would confirm continued strength, setting the stage for a move toward the $68.50 weekly resistance. With an impressive 5.92 risk-to-reward ratio, this trade presents a great opportunity for investors, while a stop-loss at $28.00 ensures downside protection.
Celsius continues to expand its market share in the fast-growing functional beverage sector, driven by increasing demand for health-conscious energy drinks. With strategic distribution partnerships, including PepsiCo, and rising brand visibility among fitness-conscious consumers, CELH is positioned for both short-term momentum and long-term growth.
With both technical and fundamental tailwinds, CELH’s path toward $68.50 looks achievable, making this a compelling opportunity for investors.

BUY NOW BEFORE YOU REGRET!
CELH range before continuationCelsius had a nice pivot around my entry time, this is likely on neutral/positive Pepsi statements during their earnings. I expect the stock to test the 20 EMA on the daily and this narrow demand zone. There is a fair amount of resistance around 35-36$ but my initial PT remains. Note rising volume, this is very important for sentiment shift.
My plan:
I will sell my 40$ Jan 25' calls at 38$
I will sell my 35$ June calls if we see euphoria in the coming months
I will unload my 2026 leaps around 50$
I purposefully choose options on stocks I see a potential pivot or value swing on, but am not confident on enough long term, this boosts my yearly returns if I am correct, the downside limit of options is also appealing to me
Celsius - Short-term bottom reboundNASDAQ:CELH is looking at a possible bottom rebound after strong volume supporting the break out of the downtrend line. We believe that the stock is eyeing 60.00 in the mid-term. Ichimoku shows two out of three bullish crossover and Stochastic has shown oversold crossover. Furthermore, the 23-period ROC shows a bullish divergence.
CELH pivoted near the triple bottomI am glad I entered this trade with a few medium/long term setups, the stock had a nice rally today. That flow of buy side volume is reassuring and the stochastic RSI is jumping on the daily. The stochastic is still dead on the weekly so there is a lot of room to run. I will sell my Jan 2025 calls when we reach 37.66$.
My setups is as follows
Jan 2025 40$ calls exit at 37.66$
June 2025 35$ calls hold and possibly exercise next year depending on price action
Jan 2026 40$ calls sell at 50$
10/7/24 - $celh - WTF is going on <$30- this position has been such a thorn in my side
- but i can't find a reason to dump my bags, instead i've been adding
- now sub 30x PE for nearly 30% growth CAGR w the expectations reset?
- are we about to find out something horrific here... or is NASDAQ:PEP gonna drop a stank bomb on the name during their CC... what gives??
- given how other discretionary is trading, this still *feels* to me like it's not stock-specific. look at NYSE:ELF as a good example, you'd almost think NASDAQ:CELH and NYSE:ELF are the same stonk. this market is really devoid of short-term logic. so better know what you own and have conviction to stomach the vol. almost feels like we're trading dog coins in this stonk market these dayz.
- gl to all. remember it's all fake. just a game. and we're price takers. have an edge, or fafo.
- i still like this one. could go lower. idk. but good value here.

CELH Swing Trade PrepCELH is looking way oversold on Weekly. It's down from $99 to around $30. The slide is pretty dramatic and the red weeks keep filing in. That being said, looking at the MACD cross-over, we will undoubtedly see some upside in the coming weeks. I'm just waiting for the buy signal to be posted. I am expecting a bit more downside to the $24-$26 area. Looks juicy.
NOT Trading advice.
$CELH - Watch $28 areaNASDAQ:CELH Watch the $28 area for a reversal; it is where prior support meets the trendline, creating a potential bounce area.
Of course, there is a risk that breaking that support would be a major disaster for the stock. But that's a risk I am willing to take.
As always, I share my opinions and trades. I'm not suggesting anyone follow my trades. You do you.
Value swing CELHI have been waiting for Celsius to hit the 30 dollar range for months and we are finally here. I am not a massive fan of the company but the intrinsic value is far above current price. The weekly stochastic RSI is very bottomed and I believe next earnings will show that this selloff to the magnitude is overblown. I am entering long call setups and planning accordingly.
My plan:
June 2025 35$ strikes, relatively safe, can capture nice changes in delta with mild theta
Jan 2025 40$ strikes, these will print if there is a reversal and are riskier but the loss is limited to the contract price
PT1=47$, this is where I would start to sell 40 Strikes
PT2= I will update this in a few weeks, this is where I would sell 35$ longer dated strikes
Celsius Holdings Range Bound - Low Growth StageNASDAQ:CELH has traded at a significant discount to previous highs.
We see some consolidation forming near $32 area and demand has picked up, however this will not likely be a growth story moving forward.
They will need to see significant margin expansion through earnings before they see any outsized growth.
HOLD RECOMMENDATION on Celsius.
Support broken, correction not over…This correction is in fact Wave 3, not the final Wave 5 as initially anticipated. We have lost another horizontal level of support at the Monthly. This suggests the downside pain is not over yet. I am anticipating a Wave 4 bounce, which will ultimately fail and we put in one more low to complete Wave 5.
This lines up with the fundamentals of the company, I don’t think we there’s a clear picture of where we are due to Pepsi ordering too much product and thus giving Celsius inflated revenues. We need this to normalise, for Pepsi to figure out the optimal numbers. There are other headwinds in this sector, which is why peers like Monster haven’t performed well of late.
I will now sit this out, wait for that final leg to come in and then think about going long. Patience is key on this.
