MRK trade ideas
MRK Strong Downtrend Lower targets for next week, got upgraded today and then smacked down lets see if we can make more lows with the selling pressure.
Potential breakout, major support/trend line to be testedThis stock has been showing a consistent uptrend setting higher highs and higher lows. It is approaching it's key support with the RSI also showing it to be undervalued. Worth a look.
MRK-Short at 4 hr supply NYSE:MRK
MRK had a strong bearish correction at the start of the year and we believe that the stock price may continue to fall after a period of bullish rebound in 4hr.
However, do take note that if the stock's bullish rise breaks the high, then we will see the stock return to the strong bullish impulse.
Short ConditionsAfter the failure of a key support(blue zone), we have a return to it
probability of falling is very high
But you can wait for formation of a revarsal pattern And then sell it.
Good luck
$MRK bullish divergence before earnings$MRK bullish divergence with RSI at 0.61 fibonacci retracement. Merck & Co Inc (MRK) is scheduled to announce its earnings on Wednesday, February 5 before market opens. Daily chart.
Merck: Ichimoku Clouds on bullish setupIchimoku Clouds still confirm the bullish setup. Today's session will be important, if positive, to manifest further bullish intentions (Break of the $92.10 resistance).

MERCK IS DIRT CHEAP. $11 BILLION CANCER DRUG. SALES BOOMING!We keep seeing Clinical Stage Companies that are publicly traded, with new FDA Approvals, and the stocks are blasting off. Many of those are trading over $100 with no revenue, profits or earnings.
Here Merck is, sitting under $100, beating earnings, with record revenue and profit, and paying an almost 3.00% dividend....It is simply outrageous. Wall Street Corruption at it's best!
We took a long position at $82.00 several weeks ago.
We feel the stock is worth at minimum, $150.00 all day long.
KEYTRUDA alone, not counting any other products manufactured / developed by Merck, or any other divisions of Merck, is forecast to bring in over $11 Billion in sales.
Holding for the almost 3% Dividend and for the stock price appreciation into the future.
250,000 LONG @ $82.00
Best of Luck Everyone!

Merck & Co. - MRK - SHORTKeep it Simple!
Looking at MRK on the Daily there has been an easy setup for a short entry at the 87 range (Orange box). The frequent wicks into this range suggest that there are being fills made for short positions. I have set three profit targets (Green boxes) for this trade, where I will almost completely out of the trade by the third profit target. The trade made very good risk to reward.
This trade is not too late for you to enter the short position, with a stop above the top of the range.

MRK Long w/ Earnings expectationsMRK was down 3.81% today just like precedent times before earnings.
Here's my analysis, the stock is going up this next days to join the channel support and with the earnings will go up again for a long swing.

This is MY analysis, it is not a recommendation.

MRKMRK looks good here up to 88. Safest entry is waiting on a retest of the channel around 80. Looks even better if you believe the market is going to sell-off after the fed cuts rates. Everything sells off in bear markets, but healthcare is a "safety" investment that typically a lot of people will put money into when the market starts to sell-off the first time off of ATH's. (2018 October and May 2019 for example)
Earnings are coming up though. Which means a high volume day either up or down. Being that we are sitting on the bottom side of this channel, be very careful not to get caught on an impulsive sell-off if that breaks. Being that all news is good news this earning season, this seems unlikely, but still possible.
*NOT Trade recommendations, Always do your own analysis!**
Look for Merck to respect trend line before enteringMerck ended the day near the bottom of its parallel channel, right above a high-volume support node at 8.19 and a trend line that's parallel with channel bottom. After hours, the price has moved below both the support and the trend line, but in my experience, after hours moves don't necessarily mean much. The real test will be tomorrow after market open. If the trend line breaks, then the price will test the bottom of the channel. That will be an opportunity for an entry with a tight stop loss.
Merck had a product launch after hours today (a smart pet feeder) that could help move the price upward, but honestly this stock has so many catalysts that I'm not sure investors pay much attention to them anymore. This one is pretty minor in the scheme of things. More important factors are Merck's strong analyst ratings and long history of earnings beats. One possible downside catalyst is Merck's slightly negative Earnings Surprise Prediction from Zacks.
