BRKA trade ideas
Matter MattersMarkets are liquid. Liquids, by definition, move.
Some of them have moved tremendously well.
These liquids got so strong that they are now considered to be gasses.
Unfortunately for them, gasses are not very dense. They are light and weak.
Apple is the prime example of this important paradigm change.
Until ~2005 Apple tried to strengthen and it magnificently did. It reached the optimal point in its cycle. It began as cold hard ice which is hard to move and turned into dense water. In the last 20 years Apple (and many others) turned into hot liquids that have the risk of evaporation into gas.
Now these hot markets are reaching the end of their cycle...
Gases reach the upper levels of the atmosphere. There they can only turn into rain, or escape into space. Either one of them is bad for markets.
The birthplace of bull markets are rivers lakes and oceans. The end of their life is up in the skies. Market Cycles are just like Water Cycles. They cannot escape the cycle.
Hot markets can only get colder. Remember, space is very very cold and can easily turn growing gasses into falling rain. Investors are now beginning to fear.
And so, they fly to safety. One of these safe havens is Gold, which has performed incredibly these past few months. Inside the equity market however, there are stocks that begin to exhibit incredible signs of resilience (coldness) like BRK.A
Has Berkshire reached the "island of stability"?
If we plot a volume-weighted candle chart, we realize that Berkshire Hathaway has created a massive plateau. A lake in the mountains. A place for investors to swim into.
With ongoing worldwide conflict, investments like these will definitely pull buyers towards them.
Apple is not the only weak. It is a mere example of the many "bubbling" companies that face issues.
Their growth was an example of easy money loose monetary policies. With high yield rates the survival of these bull markets is not guaranteed.
On the other hand Berkshire is not the only one that shows strength.
Companies like Exxon Mobil, an energy company, cannot be easily ignored.
Now compare this massive brick of volume to the following chart:
No words need be spoken.
Matter matters. Not all H2O is identical.
A solid investment needs ample liquidity and warm water.
A long-term investor may seek heavy icebergs, which may take years to melt.
A seller or a reckless trader may look into some of the innumerable gas giants to profit on.
Tread lightly, for this is hallowed ground.
-Father Grigori
BRK B BREAKING OUT!? ?_?thinking about berk b busting bodashusley betwixed the wedge
thinking this might be the start of something good.
thinking warern buff dawg might be on to something
Berkshire Neutral WedgeI'm a few days early on watching this setup for a potential "up or down" breakout but I will be keeping an eye it to see how it plays out. I am looking for a Bullish breakout at the top wedge line. Buying as soon as it goes above the top wedge line.
1st Profit Target = $428.50
Buy to open = $415, depending on where the top wedge lines price is at the breakout time.
Stop Loss set on the swing low of the previous few bars.
Which side do you prefer to support?Is Berkshire Hathaway Stock a Good Buy?
while the stock is not a screaming buy at these levels, it is one name that value investors can have as a core part of their portfolio.
In-Depth Technical Analysis of Berkshire Hathaway Inc.Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (BRK.B) closed at $413.72, presenting a potential inflection point as it navigates the tight trading range between $410.00 and $420.00. This consolidation zone has captured market attention, suggesting that a significant move could be on the horizon.
The recent price action revealed a bullish engulfing pattern, which often indicates a reversal of a downtrend and a shift in sentiment towards the buyers. This pattern is particularly noteworthy as it has formed near the support level around $410.00, reinforcing the case for a potential upward move.
Berkshire Hathaway is currently trading above the Ichimoku Cloud, signaling a bullish stance. The cloud ahead is relatively thin, implying a potential period of equilibrium or consolidation. However, the Tenkan-sen (conversion line) has crossed above the Kijun-sen (base line), generating a bullish signal known as a “Tenkan-Kijun cross.” This crossover is often a precursor to a bullish trend continuation if accompanied by strong volume.
Short-term Averages: The 10-day EMA ($410.95) and SMA ($409.74) are acting as immediate support levels, critical for gauging short-term sentiment. These levels need to hold to sustain the bullish outlook.
Medium-term Averages: The 50-day EMA ($407.62) and SMA ($408.80) further underpin the price, indicating solid medium-term support.
Long-term Averages: The 200-day EMA ($383.03) and SMA ($379.45) are well below the current price, suggesting strong long-term support and an overall bullish trend.
Relative Strength Index (RSI): With an RSI of 56.35, BRK.B is in the neutral zone but skewing towards bullishness. This indicates room for further upside before reaching overbought conditions.
MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence): The MACD line is above the signal line, with a positive divergence, suggesting growing bullish momentum.
Stochastic Oscillator: Positioned at 63.38, the stochastic is neutral but indicates potential for further upward movement.
Recent volume spikes correlate with bullish price movements, adding weight to the bullish engulfing pattern. Sustained high volume on upward price movements typically confirms the strength of the bullish trend.
In recent news, Berkshire Hathaway has notably increased its stake in Occidental Petroleum. This strategic move underlines the conglomerate’s confidence in the energy sector and its potential for growth. Additionally, Berkshire’s robust earnings report, showcasing significant revenue growth, supports the bullish sentiment and adds a fundamental underpinning to the technical analysis.
Key Resistance Levels:
R1: $422.37 – Immediate resistance; a break above could signal a bullish breakout.
R2: $430.34 – Secondary resistance; a critical level that could open the path to further gains.
R3: $451.32 – Major resistance; surpassing this could lead to a significant rally.
Key Support Levels:
S1: $401.39 – Immediate support; a fall below this could trigger a bearish sentiment.
S2: $388.38 – Secondary support; a critical level for maintaining the overall bullish outlook.
S3: $367.40 – Major support; a breach could signify a deeper correction.
Long Position Strategy:
Entry Point: Initiate a long position if the stock breaks above $422.37 with substantial volume. This breakout would likely signify the continuation of the bullish trend.
Stop Loss: Place a stop loss slightly below $410.00 to protect against downside risk.
Price Target: Set an initial target at $430.34. If bullish momentum persists, look towards $451.32 as an extended target.
Short Position Strategy:
Entry Point: Consider a short position if the stock fails to sustain above $410.00 and breaks below the support level at $401.39. This breakdown could signal the beginning of a bearish trend.
Stop Loss: Position a stop loss above $415.00 to mitigate potential losses from a rebound.
Price Target: Target $388.38 initially, with a further downside target of $367.40 if bearish momentum strengthens.
Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (BRK.B) stands at a pivotal moment, with technical indicators pointing towards a potential bullish breakout while also being on the cusp of a critical support level.

Trade Like A Sniper - Episode 19 - BRK.B - (6th June 2024)This video is part of a video series where I backtest a specific asset using the TradingView Replay function, and perform a top-down analysis using ICT's Concepts in order to frame ONE high-probability setup. I choose a random point of time to replay, and begin to work my way down the timeframes. Trading like a sniper is not about entries with no drawdown. It is about careful planning, discipline, and taking your shot at the right time in the best of conditions.
A couple of things to note:
- I cannot see news events.
- I cannot change timeframes without affecting my bias due to higher-timeframe candles revealing its entire range.
- I cannot go to a very low timeframe due to the limit in amount of replayed candlesticks
In this session I will be analyzing the Berkshire Hathaway ETF chart, starting from the 6-Month chart.
Can you Imagine?? Berkshire Hathaway low ? $185 plot Zero Band15Can you Imagine?? Berkshire Hathaway low ? $185 plot Zero Band15
NYSE:BRK.A
Plot zero for xd-Band15 = $185
and Today's low of Berkshire Hathaway Class A BRK.A was nothing but $185
What on Earth is Happening to Berkshire Hathaway?BRK.A is down 99.7% today from about $622,000 per share to $185. Most likely a glitch, but the stock has been halted and will be interesting to figure out why this happened.
BRK.B "always bearish" Based on a bull baer power indicator of "push/pull" type; after I edited the dimensions of the indicator for volume instead of moving average I found BRK.B new to always be Bearish. Unlike BRK.B NEW, the BTC indicator had bearishness many years ago and since is Bullish. Too bad I can't overlay to different charts to show each individual indicator representing each in the same image; if only. It appears people are always trying to defeat Berkshire Hathaway with volume. Unless the edits I made to the indicator represent nothing. Sometimes a nothing indicator an imagined concept reveals as much information as if it was real.
(BRK.B) berkshire hathaway_newThe orange line is a same price % scale of BTC overlayed on top of BRK.B. The long term success of BRK.B is harder done than said. The volatility of Bitcoin is hellish compared to so many years of BRK.B succeeding including stock splits to keep the price down. If marginal shares were available to all people where a person could invest any amount of money they wished into the stock market perhaps more people would have become interested in stock trading before cryptocurrency succeeded. Cryptocurrency affords anyone to invest for any amount of money on any trade of cryptocurrency regardless of the price per share cost, unlike stock market. I know that marginal shares became a thing on Robinhood a couple years back. I am unaware of the progressive push by Robinhood and how their work influences other stock trading companies to improve their business model to appeal to a younger audience. Ironically, there is no way to put "BRK.B" into a tag. There is an understatement of percentage earned here as seen on the BRK.B chart because it doesn't account for all the stock splits over the years. One would have to create a modified chart to have a way to compare stocks that split versus cryptocurrency that does not, kind of like the, 'adjust for inflation' thing people always say and do.

What Did Buffett Say at the Shareholders' Meeting?What Did Buffett Say at the Shareholders' Meeting?
Warren Buffett, aged 93, held his first Berkshire Hathaway shareholders' meeting this weekend without Charlie Munger, his longtime partner at Berkshire Hathaway, who passed away at the age of 99.
Following the meeting, it was revealed that Berkshire Hathaway's cash reserves are at record levels and continuing to grow, reflecting the challenge of finding stocks for the value investing strategy that has defined billionaire Warren Buffett's success.
Cash, cash equivalents, and short-term Treasury bills for Buffett's group totaled $189 billion at the end of March, up 13% from the end of 2023. "It is fair to assume that by the end of this quarter they will probably be around $200 billion," Buffett said.
According to the legendary investor:
Berkshire sold about 13% of its Apple shares;
reduced its stake in Chevron by approximately 2%;
Coca-Cola and American Express are "wonderful companies";
the Indian stock market may present "untapped opportunities";
"We only pick those areas that we like."
Technical analysis of Berkshire Hathaway stock B (BRK.B) shows that:
the price is forming an ascending channel (shown in blue);
after forming a historical high (A), the price showed a sharp decline – a bearish sign;
attempts to surpass this high were unsuccessful, with peak B ending at a lower level – confirming supply-side activity at price levels around $420 per share of BRK.B;
bulls have the opportunity to bounce off the channel's median line to demonstrate their determination – aided by psychological support around $400 per share.
However, with each candle on the price chart of BRK.B, a descending channel (shown in red) becomes clearer – indicating a correction within the current upward trend and suggesting potential price decline of BRK.B towards the channel's lower boundary.
According to TipRanks, the average price target for BRK.B is $443 over the next 12 months.

We expect price to push upwards near $449We expect price to push upwards near $449.
But first we might see some retracement towards the green support line and worst case scenario further retracement could reach as near the low level of $321. But from there we expect a major bounce to the upside target of $449
Betting against Buffett is a bad idea.
Berkshire Hathaway's Q1 Operating Earnings Jumped 39% Berkshire Hathaway's ( LSE:BRK ) Q1 operating earnings rose 39% to $11.22 billion, driven by robust insurance and investment income.

In Q1 net earnings, investment losses totaled approximately $9.7 billion, while gains amounted to around $23.4 billion in the same period of 2023. These gains and losses were primarily due to changes in unrealized gains in equity security investments. After-tax realized gains from investment sales were $11.2 billion in the quarter under review, compared with $1.7 billion in the year-ago period.
Net earnings attributable to Berkshire ( LSE:BRK ) shareholders decreased to $12.702 billion from $35.504 billion a year ago.

$BRK looking for a healthy correction?Price got heavily rejected twice at around 422 mark, with lower highs and lower lows being printed on the weekly chart. On a higher timeframe, the price has bounced again from an upper resistance. Not any meaningful bearish divergences aside a soft triple bearish divergence on the monthly chart.
In the scenario of a pullback, price could bounce from the 370 mark, where several important support levels are present: fibonacci level 0.618 of the pullback, trendline support, EMA 20 in monthly, volume/demand zone and previous resistance mark 360, which needs to be tested.
Current price: 408
Target price: 370

(BRK.A) - Technical Analysis ReportBerkshire Hathaway Inc. (BRK.A) displays a potential retracement in its upward trajectory as evidenced by the latest candlestick pattern on the daily chart. The stock closed at $616,630.01, marking a -1.64% move from the previous session. This shift could indicate a cooling phase following the recent bullish sentiment, as sellers start to take profits at current levels.
Volume Analysis:
The volume presents a dichotomy from the norm, having remained somewhat consistent, which does not fully corroborate the price dip observed. The On-Balance Volume (OBV) shows a slight downward tick yet maintains a relatively high level, suggesting that while some selling pressure is present, it has not overwhelmed the buyers' persistence.
Technical Indicators:
Moving Averages:
Ichimoku Cloud: The price resides above the Ichimoku cloud, which generally suggests a bullish trend. However, the latest price action towards the lower boundary of the cloud may hint at a weakening of the bullish momentum.
Oscillators:
Relative Strength Index (RSI): At 46.81, the RSI is currently neutral, reflecting a balance between buying and selling forces. It has retreated from the overbought territory, indicating a normalization of buying pressure.
Stochastic Oscillator: The %K line has crossed below the %D line, signaling potential short-term downside momentum and possibly forewarning of a trend reversal.
Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD): The MACD line remains above the signal line, but the histogram shows diminishing bullish momentum as the bars shorten. This could indicate a slowing of the upward trend or a pullback.
Support and Resistance Levels:
Fibonacci Levels: The stock is hovering above the 38.2% retracement level. A break below this could see the price target the 50% retracement level as the next support.
Psychological Levels: Maintaining support above the $600k level is crucial for maintaining bullish sentiment. A decisive drop below this could lead to a shift in market psychology and invite increased selling pressure.
Speculative Price Targets:
Looking ahead, the key resistance to watch is the recent high near the $650k level. A bullish resurgence could target this level, while a break could lead to speculative targets at $660k, adhering to the historical resistance zones. On the flip side, if the bears take control, we may see BRK.A retreat towards $590k, aligning with the Fibonacci retracement levels and previous areas of consolidation.
Conclusion:
Berkshire Hathaway Inc. currently exhibits a confluence of signals that warrant a cautious approach. While the overarching trend remains bullish above the Ichimoku cloud, the latest indicators suggest a potential consolidation or pullback could be on the horizon. Investors and traders should monitor the aforementioned levels and indicators closely, adjusting their positions accordingly. Price action near key Fibonacci levels and the Ichimoku Cloud’s lower boundary will be critical in determining the near-term trajectory of BRK.A.

Potential Continuation in Berkshire HathawayBerkshire Hathaway broke out to new highs in January. Now after a pullback, it may be continuing higher.
Consider the price zone around $400 on today’s daily chart. It has a potential double significance. First, it represents a 50 percent retracement of the move between January 23 and the high of February 26. Second, it’s near a high on February 13 that was retested as support on March 5. (See the white arrows.) Holding that area may confirm the financial conglomerate’s uptrend.
Next, BRK.B has remained above its 21-day exponential moving average. That could also reflect a bullish trend.
Third, stochastics have rebounded from an oversold condition.
