Price actions and few key price patterns within the 20 + 200 SMA frameworks are the key for the road to trading success.
As many of you know, world famous Oliver Velez uses the simple 20 and 200 simple moving averages on 2 min time frame with price actions above or below these key SMAs for day/scalp trading involving narrow state versus wide state trend or anti-trend methods. The 20 SMA line uses different colors to indicate whether it is going up or down. Against Oliver's...
$PFE crossed up 20 sma today. Also noticed all time high is back in April 1999! In the short term, hope it can rise to 45.x together with market bounce. Indicators look good. ER coming up in 2 weeks.
The 108 support seems to be pretty solid
Given so many names went down with the market and the direction $AAPL seems to be going, could this be the next? All indicators I like to use are pointing downward. It also broke back below the resistance it broke above recently. I am always somewhat scared to trade PUT since it is not natural for me.
Yesterday when the market went down upon open, I cut loss on $MO 1019C62 call (0.5 from 0.83) thinking without checking it will also drop with the market. It actually went up pretty well and closed at my original entry price. Today 10/5 it is still relatively strong. Lesson is do not trade based I what I think - trade the charts and trends.
It hits the support today and then went up with nice looking white candle with nice long bottom tail. Overall still uptrend.
Not a sexy stock, but the indicators are pointing up with increased volume. Weekly seems to be the end of cup and handle /bull flag, also near the cloud top. Early time for holiday shopping?
$COST 5 sma crossed up 10 sma on daily, about to also cross up 20 sma 236.45 on daily. MACD, Stoch and RSI all pointing upward /crossed. Overall trend is up. Recent consolidation on both daily and weekly look great. Let us see.
$IONS is in distribution within a range. Not it is falling across middle BB. Given recent price pattern /movement, it is very likely to continue the drop to 100 sma on daily or 20 sma on weekly (around $46.3). The 200 sma does not seem to interfere with price actions much.
Flirting with 20 sma but still indecisive. seems to want to trend up. Weekly looks good with a narrow/doji candle. Just watching
It has a pretty solid base of consolidation over the past couple of weeks.
May form 3 white soldiers - past two days saw pretty sharp rise.
Similar to what it did back on June 27, 2018
