Altria: Loping 👟After a longer downwards stage, Altria is loping upwards with more drive again. The share should keep up this momentum, as we still expect it to reach the compound consisting of the turquoise zone between $50.29 and $52.07 and the magenta zone between $50.67 and $53.47. There, Altria should finish wave B in turquoise and turn southwards again, making its way below the support at $40.35 to complete wave (B) in magenta. However, there is a 40% chance that the share might not be able to tap the northern zone-compound. In that case, wave alt.B in turquoise would be concluded already and Altria would directly drop below $40.35.

Altria: You Can Get It If You Really Want 💪You can get it if you really want, You can get it if you really want, You can get it if you really want, But you must try, try and try, Try and try, you′ll succeed at last. Altria should take the lyrics of this famous rocksteady song by Jimmy Cliff to heart and continue trying to reach the compound consisting of the turquoise zone between $50.29 and $52.07 and the magenta-colored zone between $50.67 and $53.47. The share can then use either of both zones to complete wave B in turquoise before turning downwards again, resuming the descent below the support at $40.35 to develop wave C in turquoise. There is a 35% chance, though, for Altria to start the downwards movement below $40.35 earlier. In that case, the share would have finished wave alt.B in turquoise by now, would ignore the zone-compound on the upper side and thus deploy wave alt.C in turquoise directly.

Altria (MO) | Retesting The Breakout Area!Hi, Since the end of 2020, Altria has started to show its strength by giving us a higher low. Since then it managed to push above the long-lasting downwards trendline which started from ATH at the beginning of 2017. Made a quite solid breakout with a strong and powerful candle as needed. To be said, if it is a strong trendline then it needs a lot of power to push through it and it got it. The break smashed a couple of good criteria: managed to push above the downwards trendline, managed to break above the 50EMA, managed to break above mid-number $50, and managed to make a now and strong mid-term higher high! Quite impressive! After the perfect trendline retest, it created another higher low and pushed into new HH above $50 and above a strong horizontal area. Ńow, it has started to approach another retest and the price of Altria has reached inside a possible buying area. Technically it would be a great investment which is supported by 50EMA, strong horizontal area, mid-number $50, minor trendline, and historically a strong horizontal price zone around $50. Do your own research and if it matches with my TA you are ready to go. Regards, Vaido

Taking a chance on Altria. MOWe are not in the business of getting every prediction right, no one ever does and that is not the aim of the game. The Fibonacci targets are highlighted in green with invalidation in red. Fibonacci goals, it is prudent to suggest, are nothing more than mere fractally evident and therefore statistically likely levels that the market will go to. Having said that, the market will always do what it wants and always has a mind of its own. Therefore, none of this is financial advice, so do your own research and rely only on your own analysis. Trading is a true one man sport. Good luck out there and stay safe!
