HD: Still in an uptrend, but large correction loomingI know this sounds crazy, but I have been eyeballing HD for potential Short for a bit. Home Depot is a leading indicator that the economy or housing market is taking a turn. If we see the economy and housing market pull back near the end of 2020 as many predict, we could see a correction all the way down to its larger, ascending support, all the way down to the $180-185 range. Here's how it may turn out... forgive my cool arrow art.
We are currently in a short term uptrend, howver, the current support line has broken through. This could simply be a throw under as we have bullish divergence on the daily and the FIBs show a nice rebound zone here. I think we may see home depot pop back up again temporarliy. However, if we do not establish a higher high, or hit the same high as before and start a double top pattern, we could be in for a ride down to the major support line.
HD trade ideas
Home Depot Bearish Divergence Playing OutHD weekly chart had a bearish RSI divergence. The stock started breaking down on November 18th & has broken down through the support trendline this week as it nears the first potential pullback level.
There is a lot of call activity in this name today in the January 3, 2020, $230 calls.
HD Long PositionPotential long entry for HD is in the works. The stock has seen a recent drop due to the latest earnings report. After losing ~10% due to the negative market reaction, there may be an opportunity to go long. I've taken note of the following:
- Approaching 200MA which can serve as support
- Chart is currently along the lower bollinger band
- Stochastic indicator is under 20; if it curls upward over 20 this can be a bullish sign
- RSI is oversold @ 30
I'll be keeping my eyes on this to see if there is a partial reversal in store
$HD Broken trend with huge volume suggest further decline to 214Strong drop from the top at 239.3 broken YTD trend - test and confirm break - most of indicators are over sold as it has more than 10% correction from recent top . its looking to close previous gaps at 214.8 - 208 -204 stoploss for this idea at 223.5
RISKY long on HD.. are you in?..Recommended 30% risk only .. i.e. usual trade for this size ticker is 1000 shares, go in small at 300 shares and trail this one on the way up.. catching a sharp knife, trying to pick the bottom - so relatively tight stop and either it goes or it doesn't!.. see chart -- close up view in comment section.. Happy trading!
HD - bulls need to hold the lineI reviewed this chart the other day, I liked the volume and the trend line confirmation (3 touches). But with the v-rally selling off by about 50% I have my guard up. We're seeing continuously high volume here, higher than the previous visits to the trend-line.
I'm not quite bearish here. But I wouldn't advise a swing entry until we revisit the trend line and prove we can hold it. We closed Friday near low of day, which leads me to believe we'll visit the trend-line either Monday or Tuesday.
If we can hold that level I still like the risk reward.
My line in the sand is a close below $216.88
HD Daily range playWatching a solid support develop on the HD Daily. Increasing bullish volume off of near oversold earnings sell off. Bounced nicely off of lower support showing similar RSI levels previously on the same trend line. Volume profile giving hints of little resistance back to the top of channel.

Home Depot - channel trading strategy, potential longThere has been an aggressive selling of the stock for the past few days. The price now reaching toward the lower trendline channel on a daily chart.
Stochastic shows on oversold position.
Look for confirmation of price reversal at the support level and combine it with a golden crossover from stochastic which suggest a buying opportunity.
Otherwise the price might continue to fall further.
