My earnings analysis on EXELThere is a nice symmetrical triangle pattern that has formed just in time for earnings. A good indication that a decent move is in store for EXEL depending on the ER. Green box : gap down here into support we could see some buying off the lower trendline and 100 day SMA, or the 200 day SMA if the price gaps that far. The latter being a much stronger area to buy. Red box : gap up into resistance we could see some selling. However, if the move is strong enough, the resistance at $32.20 could be broken and she moves higher. At that point look to buy the rest off that old resistance, new support. Let's see what happens tomorrow for earnings. Good luck :D

Potential Option Plays for AAPL's earnings (Naked Put or BPS)To take advantage of the high volatility, I plan on selling a naked put over earnings for either the $155 or $157.5 strike price for this Friday's expiration (February 2). Most likely the $157.5 strike for around $0.80. A less riskier option (no pun intended) is to sell a BPS about $10 below the closing price for the same February 2 expiration. If I get put the shares, I won't mind since it's Apple. They are only the largest and most profitable company in the world. Shares + a covered call to get rid of the shares is the back up plan.

Apple long term buy?I remember buying AAPL at 119.00 and I sold off my shares near 140-150. Another opportunity has risen. AAPL has broken out of a head and shoulders pattern. Also, the 50 MA is providing support and the coppock curve has a lot more room to move positive so this could be a chance to get back in. (If the stock does fall then it will probably fall into the top of the head and then rebound). AAPL recently released the iPhone X so since that's so recent there is not much room for its sales and profit to be counted in today's earnings report - but maybe in Q4. So, if the stock rises I may cancel my take profit and go long-term. But, if it falls as I previously said I may buy for a medium-term swing trade.

Tesla Head and ShouldersTesla has produced a head and shoulders pattern. It has not yet broken out of that pattern but today is earning report- so maybe the opportunity is rising to profit tremendously. The volume has been in a decreasing trend ever since the last earnings report, so I accept a large breakout. Also, the coppock curve has been in a decreasing trend line for a while. I have put the buy order and the sell order at 3.00% take-profit, to cover any potential rebound in the short term.

New Yearly High?BP has broken out of a flag pattern.However, is going negative in the coppock curve. Also, the total revenue has been the same for a while now. Im going to be relying on volatility. If its short it will be only short-termly i believe and if it is Long then short-term increase followed by pull-back then increase until Q4. Also, the moving average is providing support. I put my Long on the next fibonacci level.I have put the Long and short take profit at 1% but I think the price change will be much bigger so if it is - I will extend take profit.

Amazon's current issueAmazon's total revenue has been increasing quarter on quarter since 2012, this is shown by the stock price rise form that point. But the current trend is a head and shoulders pattern. the stock rose against the head and shoulders pattern which is only natural, could this mean a larger reversal is coming for the stock? I have chosen to hedge this earning report. But, AMZN doesn't really have that much volatile in times of earning report - unless the surprise is astronomical. So, I'm going to be cutting short any losses. Also, the 100 MA is providing resistance as of this point, so this may be the volatile we are looking for, as stock usually rise or fall quite bit near moving averages. So, if the stock does boom, will it be enough to over power the head and shoulders pattern?

AMBA short at low eps estimatesBattleground: Morgan sticks by Ambarella after guidance cut, two downgrades The shares of Ambarella (AMBA) are tumbling after the chip maker reported stronger than expected quarterly results but cut its guidance. Two research firms, Craig-Hallum and Roth Capital, downgraded the stock on the heels of the report, but Morgan Stanley remained upbeat on the company's outlook in providing technology for computer vision applications. RESULTS: Ambarella, which develops chips used in video systems, reported second quarter earnings per share of 48c, versus the consensus outlook of 44c. Ambarella's revenue came in slightly higher than expected. However, it now expects its full-year topline total to fall 3%-7%, versus its previous guidance for it to come in between a decline of 3% and an increase of 3%. The company said it expects its revenue from the drone market to fall for the rest of the year. DOWNGRADES: Craig-Hallum analyst Richard Shannon cut his rating on the stock to Hold from Buy. The company reported "solid" results and guidance, driven by strength in its security and auto markets, though it is facing "headwinds" in the drone market that "will likely take a few quarters to improve," the analyst stated. Moreover, the company is increasing its investment in computer vision chips and the outlook for the sales of such chips is uncertain, Shannon said. He noted that the company believes that strong demand for the low-cost DJI Spark drone, which does not utilize Ambarella's chips, could be negatively impacting the sales of higher cost drones that do incorporate its products. The analyst does not expect Ambarella's revenue from drones to rebound quickly and he thinks the shares could remain "in a range for some time." He slashed his price target on the stock to $50 from $68. Roth's Suji Desilva cut the rating on Ambarella to Neutral from Buy. The analyst expects the company to continue to benefit from growth in its sports wearable, security and auto markets. However, the prospects for its drone market are particularly uncertain, the analyst stated. Desilva said that he "would wait for increasing stability in core demand markets" and increased visibility in demand for Ambarella's computer vision products before becoming more bullish on the stock. He cut his price target on the shares to $50 from $65. MORE BULLISH MORGAN STANLEY: Analyst Joseph Moore significantly lowered his fourth quarter and 2018 estimates for Ambarella. However, the analyst said he was encouraged by the company's comments on its computer vision products. He noted that Ambarella plans to provide samples of the products to its customers next quarter. Although Moore doesn't expect Ambarella to obtain revenue from the products until late next year, he thinks that investors could become enthusiastic about them "given the importance of machine vision," and he believes that a successful launch of the products could boost the stock. Moore lowered his price target on Ambarella to $60 from $65 but keeps an Overweight rating on the shares. PRICE ACTION: In morning trading, Ambarella sank 20% to $43.42. GoPro (GPRO), a prominent customer of Ambarella's chips, is flat at $9.21 per share, off its earlier session highs.

ASX:ASL Long IndicationP/E Over 24 P/B 1.11 Last yearly report, net debt was wiped by well over 100m leaving only 216m left. Debt may not be completely wiped, but a hint at dividends returning could be possible. Operating profit returned positive after two consecutive years negative. If net profit after tax exceeds 70m and debt is decreased by 50m+... This will be fantastic. The share price will exceed $3. A stock so fundamentally strong with good earnings - this may soar. Earnings should be strong as the price of gold has not diminished, iron ore has also returned over $60/tonne. I have an order in for 1300 shares at $2.16 strike. I feel it is early enough to bet on earnings without getting in high and late after the pre-earnings hype. Earnings on the 23rd. If earnings look anything like last year... wowzers.
