QLYS (Long) - Ideal time for a cybersecurity betFundamentals With the Israel/Ukraine situation developing, countries and companies will certainly not mind some extra cybersecurity spending. Hence, companies like NASDAQ:QLYS are well-positioned to benefit Any company making new all-time highs during a challenging time in the markets should catch your interest. This one just did it on impressive earnings and with a substantial buying volume. I wish you could see the chart of revenue, which has grown by a consistent 20% year after year for the past decade (just a straight line up). Margins are fabulous with an 80% gross margin and a 23% profit margin . The firm is incredible at handling its own capital with an ROCE of 41.7% (the industry average is 8.9%). The ROCE figure means that the firm has grown 309% over the last 5 years while using the same amount of capital - highly efficient The firm has no debt (!) and earnings are expected to grow 10% next year. I could go on and on, but I know that you all degenerates are here for the charts. Just to say, if you are thinking about something longer-term, this is a perfect pick Technicals What else to say than to just to look at the chart setup Clean break on an earnings announcement. The base could be slightly better, but I do not feel like letting this one run away. RSI pointing higher, good volume, relative strength is high and the industry is driven by various robust tailwinds Strong growth, solid fundamentals and a lovely chart - William O'Neill would be proud Trade I entered the stock today; I wanted to wait for a better base, but I do not think this one will be waiting However, the weakness in the market might drag it down a bit and offer a better entry For the stoploss , I would suggest that if the stock falls back down back to the black line and below, that would be a clear sign of a failed breakout. Follow me for more analysis & Feel free to ask any questions you have, I am happy to help If you like my content, Please leave a like, comment or a donation, it motivates me to keep producing ideas, thank you :)

#Verizon a recovery buy? NYSE:VZ Verizon Communications Inc. has recently released an impressive earnings report, surpassing expectations across the board and increasing their Free Cash Flow (FCF) guidance by a substantial $1 billion compared to their previous guidance. This announcement has injected new life into the stock, and it's evident in the pre-market trading where VZ has surged by almost 4%. The current outlook for VZ is highly favorable, and here's why: A bullish divergence is emerging on both the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicators, particularly on the weekly timeframe. This divergence suggests that the stock is poised for a recovery, possibly leading to a profitable swing trade opportunity for investors. Furthermore, VZ presents an additional allure for long-term investors. With a generous dividend yield of over 8%, this stock becomes a compelling choice for those seeking a stable, income-generating investment. In summary, the combination of robust earnings, a notable increase in FCF guidance, and the promising technical indicators on the chart indicate a strong potential for VZ to recover from recent losses. Whether you're looking for a shorter-term swing trade or a long-term income play, Verizon is shaping up as an attractive option in the current market landscape

SPLK popped on earnings. Can it continue? SPLK had a very impressive beat on earnings and traders responded with buying pressure to push price up more than 15%. The question now is whether SPLK can sustain the new interest or will it fade or drop. My analysis is that best on the short term volume profile compared with the longer term is that there was a lot of trading at the top as new but late buyers competed with short sellers on price and so the price rise stalled. As a result I see price consolidated here and suspect that short sellers will push price down from here. I will have SPLK on watch for a stock short trade and put options as it is apparent that traders overreacted to the earnings beat. Price is still above the POC line on the stort term volume profile. Once it drops below, I will look for a short entry on the 3-15 minute time frames.

WOOF dropped after an earnings beat now setup REVERSALOPRA on the 30-minute chart dropped after an earnings beat as apparently a lot of traders expected better. The volume profile shows the vast majority of the trading occurred in the 5.05 to 5.25 range. This heavy accumulation should result in price movement in due time per Wycoff. I believe that a long trade is setup for a Fibonacci retracement of the drop into the middle levels and so 5.85 as shown by the indicator on the chart. The mass index indicator reached the reversal zone and then triggered with a drop below it confirming a probable reversal. The MACD is showing bullish divergence. I will place a buy stop order above the POC line of the volume profile with a stop loss at 12.0 just below the POC line is a safe 10-13% trade which may take into the beginning of next week. I will take call option contracts as well. If you want to know the details of those, please leave a comment.

Nvidia -> Earnings ObliterationHello Traders and Investors , my name is Philip and today I will provide a free and educational multi-timeframe technical analysis of Nvidia 💪 A couple of months ago Nvidia perfectly retested the lower support trendline of the major monthly rising channel and the next resistance towards the upside is roughly at the $800 level. On the weekly timeframe you can see that Nvidia is not slowing down at all and with today's massive +10% after hour earnings gap Nvidia just created new all-time-highs. Since the weekly and the monthly timeframe are both back to bullish now, I am simply waiting for a retest of the previous resistance at the $470 level which is then acting as strong support. Keep in mind: Don't get caught up in short term moves and always look at the long term picture; building wealth is a marathon and not a quick sprint📈 Thank you for watching and I will see you tomorrow! My previous analysis of this asset:

DLTR reverses up on pre-earnings move LONGDLTR has earnings in 3-4 trading days. On the 30 minute chart it has been sideways and maybe a little down for this past week which is par for the course given the general market. In the last trading day, price bounced up from the lower of the two Bollinger band set at 2.618 standard deviations below the mean basis band. The ZL MACD lines are upgoing and crossed over the zero-line. The ADX lines both negative direction and positive direction are flat and ad the zero level. The BB Oscillator demonstrates the bounce at the Friday morning open. I will take a long trade in DLTR in the next three days anticipating that trader interest and a little greed will push the price higher. I may take a call option as well. If you want to know which call I may have an interest in taking, please leave a comment.

APRN Gained on Big Earnings Miss SHORTAPRN on the 2H chart demonstrates continued burning of cash and the burn rate is more than the estimates of the analysts. With the double Bollinger Band overlaid, Price since those dismal earnings has increased up more than 50% and is now at the dynamic resistance of the volatility bands. Confluent with its rise to the upper bands is the rise of price to three standard deviations above the mean VWAP. I see this as a short trade setup with the price falling to the 0.5 Fib level confluent with the POC line of the volume profile as well as the mean VWAP which I will target in the trade. If you want my idea as to the put option equivalent parameters, please leave a comment. ( like and follow if you are inclined !) I am looking to get 20% out of the short sell. The put option is screaming for at least 100% and potentially double that.

BTTR- a volatile pre-earnings high flying penny stock LONGBTTR has been slowly gathering steam since last week. Today the buying momentum went into high gear with a big jump. This is a penny stock about as volatile as it gets with its backstop far below current market price. With earnings in two days BTTR could easily run another 30% turn around and fall. The price action and the MACD speak for themselves. I will take a small position about 3% of my account with a stop loss of 10% given the volatility. I will advance the stop loss but give room to account for the volatility. I would like to make about 20-25% on this trade over 2-3 days and will have TV alerts to let me know when the tide is about to go out. One alert will be the fade on the Price Momentum Oscillator while the other price crossing down on the faster HMA.

LABU 3X leveraged Medical Technology LONGLABU over the past ten trading days has trended down from the top of the volume profile to near the bottom. The Price-volume trend is flat showing accumulation/coiling. The price momentum oscillator shows an uptrend suggestive of bullish divergence and the volumes are stable at or above the running mean. I see this as a good long trade as some if the ETF components are pumping through earnings. If you are interested to know my thoughts on a call option setup, please leave a comment.

LLY Earnings Play LONG ( Flat Bottom Triangle Breakout)My analysis is on the 2H. I am uniquely qualified in my fundamental analysis. This is a one day until earnings. My thesis is the earnings will stimulate what will be a breakout from a flat bottom triangle. I will buy one share of stock. I will spend a similar amount on call options striking $460 expiring August 11th. I see LLY as surging while PFE is a bit challenged with the fall off in Covid vaccine work. If you find this idea interesting and might appreciate my ideas as to a stop loss and targets, leave a comment. Like and subscribe. Trade well !

IMPP a volatile penny oil/energy LONG pre-earningsIMPP is rising from its lows of July after falling from a triple top in June at 3.8 which is the target for a long trade. Price is now above the POC line of an intermediate term volume profile having crossed the mean VWAP line anchored at the share split (purple and thick black lines respectively). Price bounced off the first negative standard deviation line making this a VWAP band bounce. The MACD lines are upgoing and so diverging. I see a stop loss of 0.2 as compared with a profit target of 0.6 making this setup a r:R ratio of 1:3. I will go long here also knowing of the rising energy sector supporting this ticker. This stock is a retail trader favorite when energy is" hot". With earnings in the morning, for me this is a no brainer to buy in the premarket and if rising complement with a call option. If you want my idea of a good call option, please ask in a comment.
