MSFT short near termMicrosoft looking bearish in near term.
Looking for price drop from current levels to $224 or $217 in near term.
Near Term Bearish indicators,
1. The 40 EMA line is at $222, which indicates Microsoft is set for correction.
2. RSI making a bearish crossover from overbought levels.
3. Prevailing market conditions/sentiments.
4. No upcoming new/events.
5. MACD isn't shown her, but even that shows a bearish crossover
In long term, $215-$220 looks like a strong buy zone for Microsoft. Ascending support, EMA line both lie in that zone.
My strategy.
Buying put options expiring in June if it hits $235-$240 in next week. Will hold them till $225.
What do you guys think ?
026. PIGGISH PLAY - Short Apple Inc. (AAPL)I think this Microsoft earnings report is going to be pretty important because of how it's past reports have affected the FAANG gang in 2020. Specifically, the report announced in Q3 2020 started a pretty nasty sequence of tech selloffs that week. It's tough going first, but it is much tougher going second if the lead off is shaky. This is the reason why Nividia can occasionally receive the cold shoulder as the last in the lineup.
If I were Apple's C-X-O right now, I would be praying for the most outstanding quarter in firm history. Anything short of that will likely lead to mass selling, if Microsoft is to start the popping-of-the-bubble tomorrow night. And let's be realistic here - the current tech stock environment is far from anything resembling fair value. If it were not an apparent safe haven, Apple would likely be trading closer to 100/share right now, given its imperfect report two quarters ago.
Therefore, I'd like to take advantage of this domino-effect by buying AAPL puts - and lots of them.
And guess what?
It's possible because they imply very low volatility compared to what is very likely going to occur over the next few swings. This is the key to this trade idea - MSFT's contracts are a much fairer deal in terms of premium to likely-reality-IV. Apple's are not.
PIG SPECS:
AAPL PUTS:
-STRIKE: 137/share

Recommend selling pretty soon after price enters the profit zone stated in the chart. The real value is mostly captured on the greater-than-average move down itself, rather than the specific number of points beyond the money.

It looks like … 📎If you were born before the year 2000, chances are pretty good you still remember Clippy the Microsoft paper clip! Many times, Clippy helped us get through the various versions of Windows when we all were bloody PC-beginners. We brought him back for a guest lecture on the Microsoft stock! He was so kind to provide us with an amazing chart and as you can see the situation is very interesting. The expectation is that the price will drop a little bit between the “window” of $220 and $225. From there, the stock is expected to jump over $232.86. However, there is an alternative course, Clippy says. Here, he sees the price further decline and drop below $209.11 and only turn around somewhere at $191.15. However, the primary expectation with a probability of 57% currently prevails.
So, exciting times ahead!
Microsoft Analysis before Earnings. Microsoft price now is at a very strong rejection zone, look how price acted at this zone in the past. This down move may just be a pull back for more upside. If you look at the two highlighted structures, you will notice the similarity. I will keep updating this chart if necessary. Comment, like follow for more accurate ideas. Thank you.
Microsoft Bullish Ascending TriangleA Bullish Ascending Triangle has formed on Microsoft and it looks as if it will attempt to breakout...If breakout is rejected I anticipate a drop back to $215... If breakout does occur I anticipate price will quickly climb back near all time high levels ($232.86) however it will likely find resistance here so it will be important to watch price action... Price could soar to new all time highs however I suspect there is more downside then potential upside in the short-term at this new price level.
