$SBUX Getting Interesting$SBUX may be coming back into play. With a better than expected quarter (in my opinion) and really putting the focus on Chinas growth, we may have a breakout.
CMF is still in an uptrend since September
MACD is looking like we may have a shallow cross
RSI has ticked back up
Support at the $52.50 mark was held and bounced.
All these together make it go higher on the watchlist. Keep your eye on this one.
$SBUX Continues to Slide$SBUX continues its slow decline through 2016. After an incredible run in 2015, this is to be expected. Although $SBUX is still maintaining its dominance in the coffee world, it is at the end of its massive growth cycle. I expect growth to be incremental in foreign countries and China to determine the course of the stock over the coming months/years. Until it sees a turnaround in volume and RSI...keep this on the long term watch list.

$SBUX Unable to Breakout$SBUX was a MASSIVE winner in 2015, doubling its stock price. Since November of last year the stock has taken a breather. $SBUX has been unable to sustain a breakout over its MA's. CMF seems to have bottomed out and is leveling off nicely. We will keep a close eye on this stock as the year closes out. I expect $SBUX to regain momentum early 2017.
Short term = Neutral
Long term =Long

Starbucks - A Long Term Cup of JoeYou are looking at a WEEKLY chart of SBUX. Starbucks recently split the stock 2 for 1. The stock ran up into that split and is now digesting all that action. It has been lower for the last 3 weeks. But I expect SBUX will soon resume its trek higher.
In late 2008 and early 2009, SBUX put it a Double Bottom. In early 2009, SBUX began going higher. It has never looked back and is still acting strong.
August of 2010 was a good indication that UT 1 was intact. In October of 2012, after a six month downtrend, SBUX touched UT 1 and began UT 2.
I included the red downtrend lines just to make a point . When the price of a stock closes above a downtrend line, it may be the right time to try going long. If you want to short a stock, you can try going short when the price closes below an uptrend line.
The first red downtrend line I spoke about above was 6 months long. The second red downtrend line was also about 6 months long. The third red downtrend line (DT) has lasted 3 weeks so far. I can't tell you how long it will last but I will wait for a sign that SBUX is ready to go higher before I jump in. I feel obligated to say I am not willing to short at this point either. One hint into my own guidance for my own investments is that it looks as though SBUX may put in an "inside week" this week. It will take more time for the signal to be confirmed one way or the other.
Let's talk about the dashed line I labeled the "Accelerated Uptrend". It is above UT 3 and is acting like an uptrend line all by itself with no relation to the solid line Uptrend Lines. If I were in SBUX at the moment, I would be watching this dashed line very closely. If SBUX closes below the dashed line I would sell some and try to buy back at UT 3. If you get stopped out on your repurchase at UT3, try again at UT 2.
On the other hand, if SBUX closes above the DT line, it should be safe to try going long or adding to an existing position. Use a comfortable stop and keep an eye on the chart.
Starbucks Mirroring 2013 Upmove, Second Wave Aiming for $97Price has been trading steadily within a long term bullish Uptrend Channel, since Jan 2011 up till today (24 July 2014)
Price has recently trace from High of around $81.00 (26 Nov 2013) and found support along the Uptrend Channel Line.
We also note a minor double bottom (31 Jan 204 - 16 May 2014) within the Channel. This indicates a reversal of the bearish retracement move, for a continuation of the general uptrend
We note a similar double bottom (06 Aug 2012 - 22 Oct 2012) within a trend channel, which leads to price reaching around $81.00 (06 Nov 2013). We project that the price action now will attempt to proportionately replicate this upward movement once more, leading to a breakout.
For price to breakout, it must successfully trade and sustain above the resistance band between $81.60 to $80.00
Theoretical Price Projection:
$97.36 ( Proportional Projection of Retracement/ Up move)
Time Span: Price should complete the up move by 30 Jan 2015
Price will also most likely respect and trade within the Uptrend Channel line, until a reversal pattern forms.
Risk: There is a risk of bull trap, whereby price breaks slightly above the Resistance Band,
trade back below 80.00 to form a Double Top Reversal pattern to reverse the uptrend.
