Time to go against the grain of the general public with FacebookTime to go against the grain of the general public with Facebook #FB. I’ve been sharing my bullishness on Facebook and Metaverse on Twitter and through some of my videos. Many are focusing on Facebook through an advertising vehicle, but there is much more than what meets the eye. Just like the bullishness we shared on MSFT yesterday in trade alerts and recapping in our videos last night and this morning with the 282 targets - it was the evolution of Azure and the Mesh applications that we focused on. With Facebook, we carry the same principles of focusing on what many are not – expansion of services and areas least understood or passed to the side. I expect Facebook to expand on the Metaverse conversation and provide highlights into potential partnerships, service capabilities. Etc.
At the end of the day it matters how the markets react and not what the earning and call is all about. Nevertheless, I expect the markets to reward Facebook. There are significant comparisons of Facebook to Google and I believe that is a mistake by analysts.
In any case….
Bullish Target 1 is 216.93 to 219.92; Target 2 is 231.72 to 236.83
Bearish Target is 150.45 to 154.75
If the bottom is breached (bearish target) we would expect the price to close above 165.70 before the end of the week and back up towards 184.11.

FACEBOOK FORCAST - on the weekly chart : the price reaches a very strong support level
- on the daily chart : yestrday candle was green and today the price shows a slight rejection from underneath that could make a good wick and gives a buying opportunity
- personal opinion : we gonna have a perfect opportunity to entre as buyers due to that very strong support level that we saw previosly massive effects on the price
- best move : wait a little longer for the price to climb above the level and give us a confirmation candle
More than %50 in one month!A dramatic sharp increase is expected, recommended for mid-term, growing up to around 30-35.
What Next?They say it's gonna be a private company BUT here is how I foresee its future:
Twitter has a landmark position between $55 - $58. I don't think it can cross $58. It probably return downward at after $56, if it happens then it will be another "Beginning of an End"; But if it crosses $58 then congrats to whoever bought it!
#pessimistic .
p-value 0.0005The positive correlation between these 2 charts is so high to ignore in the post-pandemic era..!
Although predicting the outcome of earnings and market reaction to that is very hard, Meta (Facebook) could follow Netflix and disappoint the shareholders..!
From a statistical point of view P-value of 0.0005 in the past 529 trading days means, you are looking at the same chart..!
Education:
"A p-value is a statistical measurement used to validate a hypothesis against observed data. A p-value measures the probability of obtaining the observed results, assuming that the null hypothesis is true. The lower the p-value, the greater the statistical significance of the observed difference."(Investopedia)

Will Facebook surprise investors?$FB has been battered and bruised in the past 6 months as its stock price almost halved. The company reports earnings next week and the stock just broke below the recent yearly lows. It is still one of the cheapest big tech stocks on the market. In case of favorable results and guidance a bounce to $210-220 is in play given how oversold this stock has been. If it does a move a la $NFLX, the next big support area is $135-40
FB Potential For Bullish Bounce | 21st April 2022Price is near to the key pivot level. We can see a potential for bullish bounce from buy entry level of 198.49 which lines up with 78.6% Fibonacci retracement towards the take profit level of 212.11 which lines up with 38.2% Fibonacci retracement and 100% Fibonacci projection . Otherwise, price might break through key pivot structure and head towards the stop loss level of 190.42 which is a previous horizontal swing low support.

How do earnings releases affect PA?Lately, we have been seeing some dramatic sell offs from earnings. NFLX earnings tanked the stock and they weren't all that bad. TSLA's most recent earnings caused just over a 100 point sell off and they were positive. TSLA and SNAP's earnings are coming up today/tomorrow and we see some sustained selling.
So this made me wonder, how do earnings really affect a large cap stock like FB and NFLX?
Thanks to the miracles of quant trading and being a statistics based trader, I can isolate my data based on earnings releases to see what actually happens to the stock upon earnings releases and run some tests to determine significance. I am doing this with FB.
Analysis:
Since FB's history, there have been a total of 117 earnings releases.
87 have been positive releases (74%); and
30 have been negative releases (26%).
What about price action?
Okay, before I give the results I have to briefly explain what I did here. I isolated earnings day to the day immediately before the earnings release, the day of the earnings release and the day immediately after earnings release. So, earnings releases constitute a 3 day period in the data, this is because I know as a trader that the day leading up to, the day of, and the day following tend to have some dramatic reactions in PA. So what I did was I subtracted the close price of these earnings days from the close price of the day immediately proceeding the earnings days.
As an example, if earnings were released on the 20th, then the 19th, 20th and 21st were all included as "earnings days" and their close price was subtracted from the 18th.
Okay, now on the to the results:
Of the positive earnings, the mean increase in price was 0.443. That means, on average, when there were positive results, FB closed an average of 0.44 cents higher on the earnings period.
Of the negative earnings, the average increase in price was -2.93 with a Standard Deviation of 17.25. Meaning the average price dropped by $2.93.
The chart below shows the degree of sell off by earning release date. Keep in mind, a NEGATIVE value means that the price INCREASED and a Positive value means that the price DROPPED:
Whether earnings were negative or positive correlated to whether it sold off were in fact statistically significant when analyized via paired sample T-test. However, these numbers may interest you:
Of the positive releases: 41% of the time there was actually a sell off and just over 58% had a marginal increase in price. The increase in price generally happened on the day AFTER the release.
Of the negative releases: 26% had a sell off and 73% did not have a sell off (This is interesting, right?).
Conclusion:
- Earnings do correlate to PA; however, these correlations are not predictable
- Negative earnings have resulted in a sell off 26% of the time
- Positive earnings have resulted in a sell off 41% of the time

Trade safe everyone!
