GOOGL we had a breakout, but we didn’t get the strength neededGOOGL: Yes, we had a breakout, but we didn’t get the strength we needed.
We got confirmation that Google exited the yellow channel, which I call "no man's land," but when Google broke out of this channel to the upside, it did so with a candle that wasn’t to my liking.
Double TOP!
After the price tried to go up the first time after the breakout, it made one more attempt to go higher but failed. The price returned to the stagnant channel we had analyzed last week.
The earnings report is approaching. I believe the last two candles give me a lot of hope that Google’s upward run is starting here. However, I would like to confirm on Monday or Tuesday with 1 or 2 bullish candles to confirm that my prediction will indeed take effect.
Even though I'm still bullish on GOOGLE ! Remember, we are very close to the earnings report, which could push Google to glory!

Very Bullish on NVIDIA ! Point of Interest at $140.76 but wait..NVDA: Our point of interest is 140.76, and breaking this point would confirm a change of character (CHOCH) or a break of the main structure.
But wait before that…
We have three validations, one of which is extremely important and needs to be analyzed.
The first validation is the break of the ascending channel. Whenever a candle completely exits the channel (body and wick), I consider it a 100% break. Here we have a candle that broke out with significant strength, and in the days that followed, it made a change of character or CHOCH, which is a break of the previous structure or previous swing.
The second validation is that the 8 and 21 EMA lines show strong divergence. This means that the price has enough strength to continue moving upward. However, we have not yet seen any pullback. Remember that price cycles are distinguished by 3 movements:
1. Momentum
2. Pullback
3. Impulse
We should always measure how much strength the price has by monitoring volume and the divergence of these two important EMAs.
My third validation is that we are approaching their earnings report, which could create buying pressure for NVDA before the report, as previous reports have favored the stock and driven the price upward.
BUT WAIT ! HOLD YOUR HORSES BEFORE THAT!!!
We cannot ignore the order block I have around $134. Be cautious there, as it’s a zone where the price previously had significant liquidity. My prediction is that we may see a retracement before a strong push to our point of interest.
Thank you for supporting my analysis.

NYSE:NKE price is now approaching the 88.00 - 89.00 level that was a previous support level (week of Apr01'24). Bearish momentum from Jun27'24 earnings broke this level. We are now revisiting it from a bullish rally that was spawned by the CEO retiring and a new one being appointed. The support, the break, and the retest are three visits to this level, which is why I'm now viewing it as a potential entry for trades. Keep an eye out for the Oct01 earnings call.
This is what I would personally look at before entering trades, everything is subject to change on a daily basis and as I analyze different timeframes and ideas.

So BULLISH on GOOGLE ! There is a very important price behavior we need to check. I am almost certain that this behavior is the key to an upward movement on the following weeks.
There are several points to consider in order to determine what Google’s next move will be.
EMA CROSS WITH DIVERGENCE: As we can see above, we have an EMA cross with bearish divergence. When there is wide divergence between the two EMAs, it indicates strong movement with momentum.
Now, as we can see, the EMA cross is repeating again but in a bullish direction, and we are just starting to see divergence between the two, adding to the fact that the price has already broken the bearish channel with great force, followed by an indecisive Stacked Candle Channel.
CHANNEL BREAKOUT AND MOMENTUM: The price, after breaking our channel with great strength and in a bullish direction, showed decisiveness. However, right now, it is trapped in a "Stacked Candle Channel," (SCC) which is an indecisive channel where candles are clustered together and of almost the same size. This can also be seen as a pattern that the price sets before making a decision.
The question is: What decision will it make, bullish or bearish?
EARNINGS REPORT: The earnings report is fundamental for companies to inform investors of any changes in their balance sheet that have been reflected. In this case, Google is a company with one of the strongest and most solid balance sheets on the NYSE. Google’s last two reports were extraordinary, and I have no doubt that Google will deliver a good report on October 22nd. But as the price approaches the report date, many will take positions, and we could conclude that Google will have a bull run until the 22nd. From there, it will depend on the report to make a leap toward the 180-190 range.
Let's see what happens!

AVGO may confirm the daily 10 SMA this week.NASDAQ:AVGO is on watch to confirm the daily 10 SMA ahead of its earnings this week, which are on Thursday at 4:15 PM EDT. Many names in the NASDAQ:NDX are heading into this week just below the daily 10 SMA, including NASDAQ:META NASDAQ:TSLA and the semiconductor ETF NASDAQ:SMH
If these names are able to build above Friday's high, they have space to trade up to the next daily supply.
Option Chain Before Earnings - $NVDA huge CALL skewThis week, keep an eye on NASDAQ:NVDA , which will release its quarterly earnings on Wednesday.
Here are this week’s earnings releases implemented by the TanukiTrade Options Overlay indicator for Tradingview:
08/28 Wednesday after market close: NVDA , CRWD , CRM
08/29 Thursday after market close: MRVL
The Options Overlay indicates that NVDA's call skew is above 55% at 54DTE, meaning that CALL options are priced 55% higher than PUT options for the binary expected move distance .
This suggests that the market is pricing in a strong upward move.
The yellow curve represents the binary expected move, while the blue curve shows the 16-delta OTM options. The green rectangle highlights the area where you can potentially profit from the butterfly trade if the earnings report meets bullish market expectations.
Upward price levels:
7/8 - 138
8/8 - 150
Downward price levels:
6/8 - 125
5/8 - 112
If you agree with the market’s bullish sentiment, one of the best R:R trades might be a directional NVDA call butterfly. You can buy it for $109 with the nearest Friday expiration, with a maximum (theoretical) profit of nearly $900. It’s worth executing this trade before the earnings announcement. Note that the green dashed line is theoretical; while it's not a traditional trendline according to classic TA, the long-term upward trend is still quite clear
Expiry: Aug 30
Legs: 1x140C -2x150C + 1x160C

What Wall of Worry? Path of Least Resistance for NowI reviewed an interesting study Tuesday about V bottoms. Over 20 years of data showing the average "V Bottom" takes nearly 1 year to come back and get into positive territory.
The fact that all US Indexes and many stocks have done this in 10-15 trading trades is pretty remarkable. Will we more path of least resistance at all-time highs or will we see resistance actual hold for a beat.
All US Markets closing green today, Russell 2000 led the indexes today with +1.30%
DXY hitting fresh lows, but 101 and 100 are major technical support levels that I'm watching.

AAPLE VS NASDAQ. THE FRUITY COMPANY AHEAD OF EARNINGS CALLConsumer tech manufacturer Apple (AAPL) is due to report earnings next Thursday, February 1. Notably, waning iPhone demand out of China has worried investors as Apple had a rocky 2024 start, dealing with several stock downgrades.
Some of analysts slowed down its expectations for Apple and the biggest tailwinds and risks for its various devices.
"As far as those businesses are concerned, the only one that will probably show growth is Mac because some of the new products that they rolled out and easy comps from a year ago, you will probably see some sharp declines specifically on the iPad side of things...," they note.
The main graph is a ratio, between Apple stocks price NASDAQ:AAPL and overall NASDAQ:NDX Nasdaq-100 Big Tech index.
It's been a while since Buffett put the money into Fruity Company in Q2'16, and since that Apple stock outperformed the whole index, appr. by 150 percent over the next 6 years.
By the way, Apple stocks as well as Nasdaq-100 index hit the bottom, in early Q4'22 and since that, Apple underperforms the whole Big Tech Index, totally.
Basically NASDAQ:AAPL losses against NASDAQ:NDX further, over the past 12-15 months later they both hit the bottom. In this time the major break down happens in massive reversed Head-and-Shoulders ctructure, just ahead of Q4'23 Earnings call.
This is the bottom line, I'm avoid the Fruity Company ahead of Earnings Call.
Happy trading to everyone. See y'all later.

MSFT Microsoft Corporation Options Ahead of EarningsIf you haven't entered MSFT when they bought a stake in OpenAI, the creator of ChatGPT:
Now analyzing the options chain and the chart patterns of MSFT Microsoft Corporation prior to the earnings report this week,
I would consider purchasing the 460usd strike price Calls with
an expiration date of 2024-11-15,
for a premium of approximately $13.05.
If these options prove to be profitable prior to the earnings release, I would sell at least half of them.
