AMAT
Stocks at OPPORTUNITY Levels!Buenos dias! I am back from a vacation to Panama (the country, not the Redneck Riviera) where I had a refreshing time and I'm ready to hunt for opportunities and share! Many great stocks have pulled back to their 50% Retracement Levels. If you follow my ideas you know that this is my favorite technique for finding opportunities in any instrument.
I use a winner from this year, one of the best stocks of 2022, Coca-Cola NYSE:KO as a proof of concept as it is up over 7% from a second 50% Retracement retest last week. The new opportunities I am finding at these levels are:

Applied Materials looking bearish. AMATImmediate targets 124, 112. Invalidation 195.
We 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 purple 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
AMAT Big resistance above, earnings upcomingLooks bad on Daily, Downtrending RSI, peaked Accumulation, negative 21 day slope, piled on shorts. Much resistance above. Earnings up shortly. It is a good stock, it sits right on an upward sloping 52 week Exponential moving average, so I will buy one day. Now is not the time.
Zooming on Applied Materials. AMATGoing strong on this upgoing zigzag, and it looks like just a little bit more to go to hit our sole (just one) taget here. Never squeeze, rush or get greedy with the market. It is a beast with a mind of its own, and can be more cruel and unforgiving than any human opponent. This entity has no remorse, reason and it does not forgive impatience. Stay safe.

Retest after breakout | AMAT
Today we will take a look at AMAT. What are the main technical elements can we see here?
- First, we have the 200 days main structure that the price broke on November
- After the breakout, we observed a retest (typical behavior after a structure of this size are broken)
- Now, we are ready to define a level where I will consider that this chart configuration has upside potential towards the 2nd fibo extension or the higher trendline of the channel.
- IF the price makes a new ATH, I will consider that confirmation for the bullish view. Invalidation level will be below the retest
- IF everything goes as expected, I think we may see a movement with a duration of 100 to 150 days towards the target.
What are the odds of this view being right? I would say between 45% to 50%.
Are you trading this setup? No, I'm not trading this setup; currently, I'm exposed to the max amount of open positions my system allows me. However, I think this is a solid scenario from a technical perspective; the expected risk to reward ratio is about 2. As I mentioned before, the odds of this movement happening based on this type of formation are between 45% to 50%. (All you need to create an edge on the market)
What happens if the price never reaches the activation level and keeps falling? You simply cancel your view.
What happens if the prices reach the entry-level and then go straight to my stop loss? You simply absorb a stop. That's why it is essential to manage risk and define a % on each setup you will take; my risk management goes between 1% to 3%.

AMAT, A rising stock! many chances for traders and investors!AMAT made a new ATH yesterday which confirmed completion of a correction and going up to new highs.
AMAT is clearly in up going wave cycles. It offers many chances for both short term traders and long term investors /share holders. How far it goes higher? lets follow the analysis !
As shown on the chart AMAT currently is completing wave v (in circle) of a larger degree wave 3 which probably can push the price up to around 180 USD. Then correction of shown wave 4 will start which can push price back to 130-150 zone. Another actionary wave up to above 200 USD will complete an Elliott wave cycle which means considerable correction start after this cycle completion.
It is worth to note this mentioned complete cycle can be just wave 3 of 3 a two larger degree cycle which means we may see unbelievable targets for AMAT or we may have just an extended wave 5 ! Should it need any update we can do it later.
Wish you huge profits my friend .

AMAT, Long in the case of bullish reaction ! A new ATH ?Is AMAT going to show a bullish reaction to the strong support and make a new All Time High? Lets follow!
Price is clearly around dynamic short term trend line support . This is fourth time that price reaches to this support. Last three times it could push up the price successfully. Moreover, price is now exactly at 0.786 Retracement of last move up.
Stochastic indicator is near oversold zone. Please note that we had a nice move up whenever it has recently reached to this area.
In terms of Elliott waves , We may be at the start of wave 3 of 3. Possible wave count has been shown on the chart. If true, first target will be around 170 USD which corresponds to 1.618 projection of labeled wave 1. It may go higher. We can update it later. Wave 5 will certainly goes above 170 !.
Please notice the notes on the chart about the conditions which confirms or invalidates this analysis.
Although all evidences show that it is ready to make a new move up, we have to trade objectively. We set out stop loss carefully ( which is the last low shown on the chart) in the case of opening a long position.
We try to see the chances and find ideal setups but we always keep in mind that market is the one who choose the path and we are the one to follow. That is why I chose this title : " Long in the case of bullish reaction! "
Good luck my friends.
AMAT - BEARISH
ENTRY: On break below $128
SL: 136.60
PT 1 (trim level: Trim 50-70% here) - $115-$118
PT 2 (Closing position here) $100.75 - $105
Rectangle top and Major Wave 3 hitting 262% extension level. Needs much larger correction here on Wave 4. Most will this is a bull flag and it is, but based on 262% extension level, I favor a pull back here in wave 4 into green box area before new ATH's.
Key Ideas to trade big daily structures. Example on AMATI will keep this post short, so you can get a general idea of this trading style.
First of all , we have a situation where the price could not make a new ATH in 200 days. It's important to notice that we can draw a clear structure with well-defined limits because the price stayed in a clear range between 146 and 114
Now that the structure is clear, it is easy to know if we are observing a clear breakout or a fakeout, thanks to the limits we have drawn and the way the price has respected them.
So, how to proceed now? We ask this simple question. How many times can I find a similar situation like this in the past? Imagine we say four times. Ok, which is the sequence where the price goes from being inside the range towards a new bullish impulse?
Here is where technical analysis will help you create a map or sequence of movements to say, "Hey, there is a pattern here that I can wait." Once you have defined that, draw it in your chart.
In this case, my final filters are:
a) Wait for a new ATH (that's the confirmation that the structure has been broken)
b) Wait for a 2 to 4 weeks correction (that means that after the breakout, the price is not able to make a new ATH)
c) IF that happens, trade on the new ATH, with a stop loss below the 2 to 4 weeks correction and Take profit on the final Fibo extension
d) IF that doesn't happen, do not trade
e) Move the stop loss to the entry-level if the price reaches the first Fibo Extension.
f) Risk: We will use 2% of our capital on the stop loss.
g) Relax and Wait.
As you can see, this is a methodic way of developing a setup that provides a lot of control over your executions, and you can proceed based on a pre-established set of rules. This is extremely helpful to overcome emotions and bring consistency to your strategy.
Remember: Do not try to avoid a stop-loss; create procedures to control them. My win rate right now is 55% - 60%. That means that almost half of the time, I'm wrong; HOWEVER, when I'm right, I make more than 2 dollars of every dollar I'm risking. Trade like a casino!
