SMH trade ideas
$SMH Semiconductors Remains a Battleground
Please take not of the significance of the February candle open, today it was where the battle between Bulls and Bears was fought,
unfortunately into the close the Bears came out on top and we closed below this key level.
If NVDA AMD etc are to rally this level needs to break on heavy volume and set up a recovery for the sector next week.
As the month end approaches it becomes even more important.
Semiconductor RallySMH, the semiconductor ETF has completed a beautiful combo correction and it appears wave 1 and 2 are already in!
Trade plan
Entry- Break of first supply zone
Stop loss- Will take loss if price cannot turn supply into demand
Price target- Overall price target for Wave 3 is 260, but I will be scalping in between the overall move to 260 using the zones as price targets and stop losses
Comment with any questions regarding the chart or trade plan :)
SMH: Not Smart to Long Semiconductor Index Right NowIt is not a smart decision to open long positions in the semiconductor sector right now (TSM, NVDA, ASML, INTC, AAMT, AMD... etc).
As the chart show, the overall performance on SMH is still on the downside trend, blocked by the resistance line on the necklace of the head-shoulder pattern.
But it doesn't mean that it is time to short the semiconductor sector, it is better to stay neutral and see if we have the chance to buy the cheap chip in around 200 USD.
If the market wouldn't give us the chance to buy in deep, then we can try to create the new positions again when SMH breaks through the resistance and goes with a new uptrend.
$SMH Semiconductor ETF Holds Trendline
Lots of pain among the tech bulls in recent weeks and the SMH has been the cause of much of that pain.
Despite a unprecedented demand and pricing power the sector is unable to meet demands as deep rooted politics has caused supply chain issues.
Earning beats have been ignored as guidance has failed to overwhelm analysts and investors.
This week we must look for strength in AMD and NVDA in particular, both companies have seen considerable outflows and attempted rallies have been rejected fast.
On a positive note the SMH has maintained its March 2020 uptrend, it retraced and held the 0.236 Fibonacci level and also held the 100ma (ema) .
All 2 of these supports is now the line in the sand for us, below these supports trouble is ahead.
Semis to the moonLONG NVDA LONG TSM LONG KLAC LONG SEMIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
But seriously, semis have broken out. I expect a test, but clearly semis have both cyclical and secular tailwinds. It is a no brainer to go long in a "bet the farm" type bet.
Semiconductors ~ ascending triangle Technical Analysis
We have formed an ascending triangle (purple lines). If we make a measured move from the breakout, it takes us up to $275 target approximately.
21ema has been working very well as a trend following system.
OBV has been supportive of the trend.
Fundamental Analysis / News
1. Ongoing reports talking about demand for semiconductors outpacing supply, particularly from the auto makers.
2. A Reuters report that indicates CEOs of leading U.S. companies are urging the Biden administration to provide incentives to build more factories in the U.S. in order to win back market share and help mitigate risks to national security.
How I use daily weekly stoch Part 2 Swing tradingSPY 385 the 360 then boom new highs or we boom from here
