BB trade ideas
BB BlackBerry Limited Options Ahead of EarningsAnalyzing the options chain of BB BlackBerry Limited prior to the earnings report this week,
I would consider purchasing the 5usd strike price Call with
an expiration date of 2023-8-18,
for a premium of approximately $0.33.
If these options prove to be profitable prior to the earnings release, I would sell at least half of them.
Looking forward to read your opinion about it.
BlackBerry Ltd (BB), DailyBlackBerry Ltd (symbol ‘BB’) share price has made a remarkable gain of around 53% in the first 5 months of the year and is currently trading in a range at the time of this report. The company is expected to report its earnings for the fiscal quarter on Thursday 22nd of June. The consensus EPS for the quarter is $-0.06 compared to the result for the same quarter last year of $-0.06.
‘ Even though the company managed to recover some of its losses in 2023 it is still not profitable, recording negative earnings for at least the last 4 consecutive quarters. On the financial side the company’s current ratio is just above 100% (102% to be specific) meaning that currently it is able to cover its short term liabilities with the current assets in possession while the total assets outweigh the total liabilities at a ratio of around 2:1.’ said Antreas Themistokleous at Exness.
From the technical analysis perspective the price is currently trading above its moving averages with the 20 SMA acting as a support for the time being. The Stochastic oscillator is not indicating any overbought or oversold levels even though its on the move to the oversold side.
The 50 moving average is still trading above the 100 day moving average indicating that the bullish momentum is still valid while the Bollinger bands have contracted significantly giving reason to the sideway movement seen on the chart in the last month.
$BB Trend ReversalBlakeBerry Limited is showing a sloped inverse head and shoulder on the daily. Following earnings there was a high volume surge pushing the price higher, maybe selling those patents was a great idea after all... Anyway, this is currently a risky play to enter now as price action is below 200MA. Depending on this coming weeks stock performance I might jump in on some option calls. I do like that the price seems to have stabilized all week around $4.55. My entry would be around $4.35 with a stop loss at $4.15.
Trading BBTicker: BB
2023 Low: $3.31 (USD)

The company recently reported nine new “design wins” in the automotive industry, and their QNX technology is now installed in more than 215 million vehicles worldwide, with Human Horizons deploying BlackBerry QNX technology for autonomous driving features in their HiPhi Z vehicle. Without a doubt, Blackberry has eyes firmly on innovation.
Trading BB requires a slightly deeper dive, but once you’ve identified and verified your source information, following Blackberry’s corporate reports and product releases is quite easy.
When making your fundamental analysis, consider comparing the automotive giants and their sales too. They are related, and a drop in auto volumes could affect the performance of Blackberry.
Sensitivity to sentiment is also an issue. Blackberry is a tech company at heart, and when the tech sector suffers, Blackberry gets dropped into that bearish basket.
When making technical analysis, consider using the Moving-Average Convergence/Divergence line (MACD). MACD will help you recognize trends and signal BB’s momentum.
The MACD line compares BB’s short-term and long-term momentum in order to estimate its future direction. Use the MACD to compare two moving averages at the same time. Set for any time period, but perhaps avoid using it for day trading. The 12-day and 26-day moving average are advised for BB.

BB Looking Bullish At Support!BB is currently at support and it looking to move higher. Stop loss should be set below the support box which is a clear invalidation. ES1 & S&P500 are currently looking bearish on the higher TFs but a quick pump can happen before the higher TFs play out.

$BB Gets a Solid BounceI just thought this bounce at the 382 was interesting. After the market flushed, $BB bounced hard off the bottom of the rising wedge pattern. Assuming we're not going to see more downside more broadly tomorrow, I'd expect $BB to start moving back up--at least to the middle of the wedge. Just shy of $5 perhaps?
$BB Goes to $4.50?In my previous chart on $BB, I wondered if BB would pick a true direction in the coming session and speculated it would be another trend downward. Looks like I was right. I see two possible paths from here: (1) BB walks down to about $4.40 and then starts to move back up slow and steady to the middle or top of the broadening channel; Or, (2) we see a precipitous drop to about $4.20 and form a *spring* that leads to a significant bounce. I'm fine with either. I like cheap $BB shares.
Blackberry / BB - 'Tis No Bubbling Volcano, But 'Tis a Geyser.I'm not a big fan of the meme stocks and I'm not a big fan of speculating. However, I was scrolling through the charts and I noticed that Blackberry BB had a unique tell in its monthly chart, which I will show inline since I have to make the post on the weekly candles, otherwise it won't display:
Simply put, BB has never broken its pre-meme pump and dump lows from the times it was front ran by the Marxist-Leninist PR brigade on Reddit/WallStreetBets.
It also has three months of relatively equal, subdued prices, before experiencing a small breakout this month.
And this pattern is something of a fractal to what we find in the weekly candles of our good friend BBBY Bed Bath and Beyond, but only on the weekly chart. Note it also never broke its weekly lows:
What's really notable is that Citadel Securities, which is more or less the dark pool market maker that keeps Robinhood, where retail lost $5 billion "Apeing" calls on memestocks during the biggest bull run in stock market history , in business, bought 1.966 million shares of BB, reported in June 30 disclosures.
Citadel also bought 2.265 million shares in BBBY, which was also reported in June 30 disclosures.
I said in my recent BBBY call that the fact that Citadel hasn't unloaded their BBBY bags (yet) is the real thing to watch, while Ryan Cohen's exit was a mere red herring.
All of that is just circumstantial stuff, but Blackberry did break out of its three month consolidation, took out a new high early in the month, and has made a healthy retrace without any particular bearishness:
The July --> August run was like 35%, which is pretty good in anything.
As of now, there's exactly zero chatter on Reddit about BB pumping, except for this one thread titled "BlackBerry is the next play by the apes" from last week, which was downvoted to oblivion and filled with mocking comments such as "Hahaha… how heavy are your bags???" and "People have been saying this since gamestop lol."
I've said repeatedly that social marketing, not social media, venue Reddit will not begin to promote a stock until it has already pumped and you're already paying way too much for options.
You aren't looking at organic posts by fellow college kids, but instead you're looking at a hybrid botnet/public relations firm pretending to be normal people for the purposes of having you inculcate yourself with atheism, leftist Party narratives, pornography, and to come and lose your inheritance to the market makers paying them.
So a lack of social hype, in combination with price action, in combination with Citadel taking a significant position, gives good pause to consider if BB is set for another fat pump and dump style weekly wick that will burn the hands of suckers who buy the tops.
Personally, I think it is, and the target is around $15. I expect it to be the usual lackadaisical long candle with marginal hype and a quick cooling off period that accompanies some other things going moon and then collapsing all at the same time.
So, when you see BB go up, don't chase it. Your "fear of missing out" will turn into an expensive spot on your Roth IRA's shelf.
And my usual reminder: Reddit is partially owned by Tencent, an arm of the Chinese Communist Party. Reddit wasn't your friend before Tencent took a stake, but they're even less anything but a filthy Marxist maelstrom to fall into now that the Evil Party has its hand around several of its ribs.
BB About to Go Parabolic?BB is repeating the accumulation algo prior to January, 2021 and it's moving about twice as fast.
In Dec 2020, #BB broke above the (red) downtrend and within 6 sessions gapped up 60% before retesting a major support level. We've been in this same cycle for about 7 months and we're about to pierce the (red) downtrend. If the algo is going to repeat itself, we'll gap up within 3-6 sessions before retesting back onto the parabolic curve.
