Snowflake, Inc. $SNOW reaches pattern target, partial exitSnowflake is a cloud computing-based data warehousing company based in Montana, named after the founders' love for winter sports. I like winter sports, and the ticker SNOW is aesthetically appealing in my portfolio. The trade setup was straightforward. The company IPO'd in 2020 at $220, and after one quarter that saw investors take price up above $400 per share, all post-IPO gains were given back by mid-2021, and price got down to as low as $180. Between March - July 2021, $SNOW formed an inverted Head and Shoulders bottom, reflected by the blue curved drawings - a left shoulder, a "head", and a right shoulder. Once price broke above the pattern boundary, I reached a measured target of $320 by applying the width of the pattern (from $180 to $250, or $70) to the breakout level of $250. $70 + $250 = $320 This measurement criteria is based on the works of John Magee and Robert D. Edwards in Technical Analysis of Stock Trends (5th edition, 1948). My stop-loss, the "Last Day Rule", and my limit order placement is based on teachings from my friend and active trading legend Peter L. Brandt (Diary of A Professional Commodity Trader, @PeterLBrandt). I've now covered 3/4 of this position for a gain of 28% (70/250). My maximum risk, assuming my stop loss order filled peacefully at its activation price was only 4% (10/250). The risk to reward setup at the time of entry was then (4%) to 28%, or 1 to 7. Snowflake is probably in line for further price gains, but I have no reason to believe I have an edge at these levels.

LABD break outI have been tackling LABD/LABU day in and day out. I have somehow made some profit week by week. I am trying to figure out which was the better trade as I think it has come to the tipping point. I believe LABD is the winner. I see bearish sentiment in the short term market and I see an inverse head and shoulders or a cup and handle formation. On LABU I confirmed it because whichever way I look at it it is the opposite, head and shoudler pattern, inverse cup and handle.

Tech Stock SingularityThe Tech Stock Singularity will be the growth acceleration of tech stocks as technology accelerates development, but it will be far greater than the Dot-com bubble because artificial intelligence will demand more technology and resources to support its accelerating growth. For example, Google makes its own chips and buys energy companies to support its growing cloud facilities. Eventually, Google might buy all of its supporting companies. Amazon buys planes, trucks and warehouses, and increasingly owns more real estate and more resources. Demand will increase explosively when technology makes "babies" of new AI and each is trying to grow faster than the rest because the AI race is a game of win or die.
