US 100 – Further Moves Await NVIDIA Earnings UpdateGlobal stock indices have reacted positively at the start of this new trading week to President Trump’s decision to extend a deadline which would impose a tariff of 50% on EU goods imported into the US from June 1st to July 9th. Taken alongside a new willingness being signalled from the EU side to speed the negotiating process along in key areas, means trader hopes have increased that a deal between the first and third largest of the world’s economies can be agreed in principle within the allotted time. Focusing on US stock indices, the US 100 has risen 2.4% this week, taking it only a small step away from its recent highs at 21493 seen on May 20th. However, later today, the rally is about to face possibly its biggest challenge of the week in the form of earnings from the second biggest company on the planet ($3.3 trillion mkt cap) and AI bellwether NVIDIA, which are released after the market close. Traders will not only be looking to judge company’s actual performance against expectations but will be eager to receive updates on the impact of President Trump’s tariffs on future revenue, chip deals with the Middle East, competition and its outlook for AI demand moving forward. Answers to these questions and others may well impact sentiment towards technology stocks and the US 100 moving into the end of the week, and month, on Friday. With increased volatility a possibility, knowing the technical outlook can also be helpful. Technical Update: Focus on the May Highs at 21493 While last week did see correction themes develop within the US 100 index, there appears to be no clear-cut signs of a negative sentiment shift yet, as fresh buying developed above support provided by the rising Bollinger mid-average, currently at 20772 (see chart below). However, looking forward, if the NVIDIA earnings prompt an increase in US 100 price volatility, what are the levels traders may be watching for clues to the next directional themes? Potential Support Levels: It is possible the rising Bollinger mid-average, currently at 20772, represents a first support for traders, and as such, closing breaks below this level might lead to a more extended phase of price weakness. Such moves while not a guarantee of declines, could lead to a deeper sell-off towards 20001, which is equal to the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement of April 21st to May 20th 2025 price strength. Potential Resistance Levels: With this week seeing fresh price strength emerge from above the rising Bollinger mid-average, a positive price pattern of higher highs and higher lows, may still be evident. This reflects buyers currently being willing to pay higher prices, each time a setback materialises. However, to maintain this uptrend pattern in price, the focus could now be on resistance provided by the May high at 21493 (May 20th), with closing breaks above this level required to suggest further strength might then be on the cards, towards what could prove to be the next potential resistance level at 22226, which is the February 18th 2025 all-time high.

IBM: Sneaking Toward a Breakout?International Business Machines is the top-performing member of the Dow Jones Industrial Average this year, and some traders may think it will keep climbing. The first pattern on today’s chart is the push above $269 last week. The IT company pulled back after hitting that record peak, but found support at its rising 21-day exponential moving average (EMA). It also closed above its 8-day exponential moving average (EMA), which is additionally above the 21-day EMA. Those signals may be consistent with a short-term uptrend. Next, IBM is above $261.64, the previous weekly closing high from early March. That may suggest a breakout is being attempted. Third, MACD is rising. Fourth, you have some longer-term patterns. The 50-, 100- and 200-day simple moving averages (SMAs) are in a potentially bullish sequence, with faster SMAs above the slower. IBM also held its January low in April, avoiding the deeper declines experienced by the broader market. Those patterns may be consistent with long-term strength.

Ironwood Pharmaceuticals | IRWD | Long at $0.61Ironwood Pharma NASDAQ:IRWD stock dropped ~89% in the past year due to disappointing Phase 3 Apraglutide trial results, FDA requiring an additional trial, weak Q1 2025 earnings (-$0.14 EPS vs. -$0.04 expected), high debt ($599.48M), and analyst downgrades. So why would I be interested in swing trading this company? The chart. The price has entered my "crash" simple moving average zone, which often results in a reversal - even if temporary. Also, Linzess (GI drug) revenue is steady, and I thoroughly believe that alone pushes the fair value near $0.95, if not higher. Thus, at $0.61, NASDAQ:IRWD is in a personal buy zone with the potential for additional declines before future rise. Target: $0.95 (+55.7%)

Krispy Kreme | DNUT | Long at $3.04Krispy Kreme NASDAQ:DNUT has entered and slightly exited my simple moving average "crash" indicator. More often than not, this zone (currently between $1.88 and $2.88) is a bottom indicator. However, this means there is a still a probability that stock could drop to a value less than $2 in the near future (and I wouldn't be surprised if it gets there). But predicting a "true" bottom is a fool's game. Building a position using data-driven decisions is the best strategy. Fundamentally, NASDAQ:DNUT has many economic headwinds and a relatively high probably of bankruptcy in the next 24 months. It brought in $1.6 billion in revenue in 2024 and is a great target for takeover, but that requires a crystal ball. Earnings are anticipated to become positive by 2026, but growth is slow. The dividend yield, currently around 4.8%, may get cut in the near-term to help the company financially (again, crystal ball needed). Short interest is 30% with a float of 78 million... Debt to Equity = 0.90x. Essentially, if it can get through 2025, the company predicts it can turn things around into 2026 and beyond. So, is this a good investment? Fundamentally, many better options are out there. From a technical analysis perspective, a potential opportunity. Thus, a gamble. I'm not betting the farm here, but at $3.04, NASDAQ:DNUT is in a buy zone - with a warning for potentially better entries to emerge in the near future in the $1-$2 range. Targets: $3.60 $4.20

SelectQuote | SLQT | Long at $2.18SelectQuote NYSE:SLQT is currently resting within my historical simple moving average zone. This often signals consolidation and a future move (in this case, let's hope up). Looking at the company's financials, NYSE:SLQT is currently profitable. For Q3 2025 (ended March 31, 2025), the company reported a net income of $26.0 million, up from $8.6 million in Q3 2024. This follows a strong Q2 2025 with a net income of $53.2 million. While like most companies there are likely headwinds in 2025 (earnings are projected at a loss of -$0.20 per share due to seasonal fluctuations and investments in 2025 (e.g., new Kansas facility)), profitability is likely to stabilize in 2026, with EPS forecasts of $0.05, supported by improved Medicare reimbursement rates and operational efficiencies. Ongoing Department of Justice allegations could pose risks... but SelectQuote’s recent $350M investment and cost management suggest profitability may continue if legal issues are resolved favorably. Thus, at $2.18, NYSE:SLQT is in a personal buy zone. There is a potential for the price to dip to the bottom of the historical simple moving average channel (near $1.25) in the near-term, but time will tell. Targets: $2.64 $4.24

Let's break down your Bitcoin (BTC/USD) 4-hour chart analysisBitcoin (BTC/USD) 4-hour chart analysis: Chart Summary: 1. Descending Channel Formation: Price is moving within a downward sloping channel (lower highs and lower lows). Currently, price is testing the upper boundary of this channel near $109,800. 2. Liquidity Zone (Downside): Clearly marked liquidity zone between ~$100,000–$102,000. This suggests potential interest from large players in this area — stop hunts or accumulation possible. 3. Indicators: RSI (Relative Strength Index): Around 56, which is neutral-bullish. Not overbought, so there's still room for upside, but no strong momentum. MACD: Bullish crossover is forming; histogram showing momentum shift to the upside. Key Insights: Price Rejection or Breakout: Price is at a critical point at the upper trendline. If it breaks above with strong volume, it could indicate a bullish continuation. Bearish Case (High Probability for Now): The descending channel is intact. Price may get rejected and revisit lower bounds near $104,000 or even the liquidity zone near $100,000. Bullish Case (Breakout Setup): Break above the channel with a strong bullish candle and retest confirmation may trigger longs. Target could be previous highs around $112,000–$114,000. current price: 109580 Suggested Trade Plan: 1. Conservative Short Entry: If price rejects the upper trendline (around $109,800–$110,000) Stop-loss above $110,500 Target near $104,000 or $100,000

AVAX About to Nuke Longs Before Pumping to $30?Yello Paradisers — are you prepared for the next major #AVAX move, or will you once again fall into the trap smart money is setting right now? The chart is screaming probable bullish continuation, but not before one final trick to flush out weak hands. We warned you before — and now the game is unfolding exactly as expected. 💎#AVAXUSDT has clearly broken market structure by forming a higher high, confirming a potential trend shift. However, price failed to close above the 25.82–26.93 resistance zone, leaving the bullish breakout unconfirmed. This hesitation right at a critical level increases the probability of a fakeout or liquidity sweep before any continuation. 💎Right now, we are hovering just above the ascending trendline, and based on current structure, the most probable scenario is a sweep of that trendline liquidity, grabbing stops from impatient longs before the market forms a clean higher low and reverses aggressively to the upside. 💎The green zone around 22.00–23.00, which previously acted as resistance, has now flipped to support. As long as price holds above this level, the bullish probability remains dominant. However, if we see a temporary dip below the trendline toward the 19.08 region, where support lies, that would likely be a classic liquidity hunt — designed to trigger fear, force early exits, and then reverse powerfully into the next leg. 💎And while both scenarios favor upside, it is the path of maximum frustration — likely a wick into 19.00 — that has historically proven most probable before larger breakouts. 💎A sustained move above the 26.93 level, especially on a daily candle close, would significantly increase the probability of continuation toward the major resistance between 30.00 and 30.74. This zone remains the main upside target in the short to mid-term. 💎On the other hand, if price closes below 16.67, that would invalidate this bullish outlook and open the door to deeper downside. Until then, structure remains bullish, and the higher-probability outcome still favors upside after a potential short-term shakeout. This is the point where the weak hands get shaken out and smart money reloads, Paradisers. If you're aiming for long-term success, wait for high-probability setups and protect your capital. Strive for consistency, not quick profits. Treat the market as a businessman, not as a gambler. MyCryptoParadise iFeel the success🌴

Potential Reversal and Breakout Retest.Entry Zone: We recommend initiating a BUY position in AIA Engineering Ltd. around the current levels, ideally between ₹3,280 - ₹3,320. This area represents a retest of the recent trendline breakout. Target 1 (T1): ₹3,400 Target 2 (T2): ₹3,480 Target 3 (T3): ₹3,580 (If momentum sustains above T2) Stop Loss (SL): ₹3,200 (Strictly on a closing basis) Trendline Breakout & Retest: The stock recently broke out of a significant descending trendline, indicating a potential end to the corrective phase. The current price action appears to be a successful retest of this broken trendline, which often acts as new support, presenting a lower-risk entry point. Volume Confirmation: The initial breakout was accompanied by higher volumes, and while the retest phase has lower volumes (typical), sustained buying interest on subsequent upward moves would confirm strength. RSI Bounce from Support: The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is showing a bounce from the 40-50 zone, indicating that momentum is regaining strength and potentially moving towards the bullish territory. Positive Structure: The overall chart structure suggests that the stock is attempting to reverse its short-term downtrend and potentially resume its broader upward trajectory. Favorable Risk-Reward: The current setup offers a reasonable risk-to-reward ratio for a short-term trade, with potential for upside gains outweighing the defined risk. Key Risk: A close below ₹3,200 would invalidate the bullish retest scenario and could lead to further downside, bringing the previous lows into play. Traders should adhere strictly to the stop-loss.

NATGATE - Attractive RISK REWARD RATIO ?NATGATE - CURRENT PRICE : RM1.57 On 08 MAY 2025, the stock made a small gap up and closed higher at RM1.58 - with high trading volume. From there the share price rises few days and touched intraday high at RM1.81 on 15 MAY 2025. Then the stock retrace and now it bounced from the small gap zone. The small gap zone may acts as strong support level. At the same time, there is also EMA-50 support. STOCHASTIC OSCILLATOR shows an oversold situation (which indicates rebound may happens in near term) while RSI is still above 50 (BULLISH). At current moment this trade gives an attractive RISK REWARD RATIO. My entry price will be RM1.55 - RM1.58. For target price, there are two strong resistance. 1. EMA 200 2. The high of LONG BLACK CANDLESTICK (03 MARCH 2025 candle) One of my trading technique is I would take profit one or two bids below the actual RESISTANCE LEVEL. As such, my 1st target for NATGATE will be RM1.73 (below EMA 200) and 2nd target is RM1.85 (below actual RESISTANCE RM1.87 - The high of 30 MARCH 2025 long black candlestick). ENTRY PRICE : RM1.55 - RM1.58 TARGET PRICE : RM1.73 and RM1.85 SUPPORT : RM1.50 Notes : Please be aware also that the company is going to announce its QUARTER EARNINGS approximately end of month.
