CVNA: Buy ideaWe are in an uptrend and we will not go against this trend. However, if the resistance line is broken with force by a large green candle and followed by a large green volume it means that as soon as the second green candle appears with a large green volume we can enter a buy position. . On the other hand, we could have a reversal of the trend if and only if the vwap and the support line are broken with force by a large red candle and accompanied by a large red volume, this means that we can enter a position of selling on the appearance of the second red candle followed by a large red volume.Thanks.

CARVANA CHANGED MY LIFEIm keeping bullish expectations on carvana I expect price to make a structural retracement
to my highlighted zone followed by stonks stonks stonks baby nothing to do with the underlying business at all just momentum and a whole lotta sass
that said here are some encouraging words from Ernie the CEO
“Carvana performed exceptionally well in the second quarter and set Company records for Adjusted EBITDA and gross profit per unit, which was up 94% year-over-year, all while continuing to lower expenses. Our strong execution has made the business fundamentally better, and combined with today’s agreement with noteholders that reduces our cash interest expense and total debt outstanding, gives us great confidence that we are on the right path to complete our three-step plan and return to growth,” said Ernie Garcia, Carvana's Founder and Chief Executive Officer.
shorts again?Five historical downward waves were created from the highest peak to the lowest bottom, after which only three upward corrective waves were formed, not a motive, and correspond to wave 4 of Elliott’s law. It is now possible that five more waves will be made to re-test the historical bottom of the currency, including the termination of wave C
CARVANA Signs of a PULLBACK Evident and TARGET AREASHi guys, this is a technical Analysis on Carvana (CVNA) on the 3 Day Timeframe.
We've had a MASSIVE rally in CVNA, from MAY till reaching our current MAJOR RESISTANCE ZONE indicated by the GREEN RECTANGLE with RED borders.
We've reached it and got rejected from it on July 19th. We've made our way back up however and are currently forming a LOWER HIGH. Note however, our current 3 DAY candle closes on the 9th of August. Make sure to pay attention.
Friday we had a 12% sell off, where currently our price action is below the 0.786 FIB Level. If we close below on the 9th, the other FIB levels become more probable to reach. Becoming BUY ZONES and Potential PRICE BOUNCE areas.
Our MASSIVE RALLY occurred due to 2 TA reasons:
1. MASSIVE BULLISH ENGULFING CANDLE that blew past MAJOR REISTANCE TREND LINE from BLOW OFF TOP (BLACK line)
2. GOLDEN CROSS, where the 21 EMA CROSSED ABOVE 50 D SMA
However in my Opinion this rally, is NOT sustainable. Notice how SLOPED it is, indicated by this sharp upward channel in BLACK.
I believe something is going to give, especially now that we hit this MAJOR RESISTANCE RECTANGLE ZONE.
I also believe we have not created strong MARKET STRUCTURE, we just went PARABOLIC. This has weak foundation and is probable for a price correction.
Our direction i believe is to fall to the various TREND lines, MOVING AVERAGES and FIB Zones i drew, put on charts and highlighted, respectively.
Notice the trendline our current PRICE ACTION is resting on, if we BREAK this, look to the LOWER SUPPORT TRENDLINE of the UPSLOPING CHANNEL.
I am also looking to the 0.618 FIB and 0.5 FIB Levels as BUY ZONES and areas we test, especially if we CONFIRM BELOW the 0.786 FIB level.
AND Note: It is also likely that when we TEST the FIB levels as SUPPORT, PRICE can move up. Remember that if we don't reclaim or CONFIRM as SUPPORT ABOVE the previous FIB level we broke down from, it is likely price falls again.
I am also looking at the 21 EMA (ORANGE Moving Average) as another area i believe we may test as SUPPORT in the days to come. I Use this EMA alot to indicate BULL TRENDS and BEARISH TRENDS.
When PRICE is ABOVE = BULLISH, or BELOW = BEARISH.
Another interaction that occurs is that sometimes when stocks move up in PRICE, it usually comes back down to TEST the 21 EMA as SUPPORT.
Which WE HAVE NOT YET SEEN a test of SUPPORT on 21 EMA since we went PARABOLIC. This adds to evidence of WEAK Market Structure.
If & When we TEST IT, we bounce off, thats healthy and sustains the BULL RUN, but IF we breakdown confirming as RESISTANCE, WE can test the GREEN Moving Average, the 50 D Moving Average as SUPPORT.
NOTICE: SUPPORT CONVERGENCE of the 21 EMA, BLACK TREND LINE and the 0.5 FIB level. This area could be an AREA we can have a potential bounce from. When many support zones meet, it becomes a powerful support level.
Also NOTICE: BLACK TREND LINE meets at 0.618 FIB level
EMA will also continue upwards, provided price stays above the EMA.
If all FIB LEVELS FAIL, which is always possible but for now not as PROBABLE, LOOK to the MAJOR SUPPORT RED HORIZONTAL LINE as our life line.
This could be our base for sideway or range bound action. Keeping that to the back of your mind can give you perspective of the possibilities of where PRICE can go.
But lets take it ONE STEP AT A TIME.
Now lets look to the RSI, Notice how we've been hanging around at the OVERBOUGHT ZONE since early JUNE. Longer we stay up it becomes more likely we come down, once we do it indicates SELL OFF. One pattern i like to use is watching how the ORANGE RSI LINE interacts with the Moving Average i added to my RSI. If we CROSS below the Moving Average, it usually indicates that we have SELLING and a DOWN TREND. Notice the PREVIOUS EXAMPLES 'ive highlighted.
Now Notice the STOCH RSI. We are getting close to a BEARISH CROSS below the 80 level, indicating BEAR MOMENTUM and SELL OFF. Also focus in on the BLACK HORIZONTAL LINE, watch for any bounces back up. This could give way to BULLISH Momentum coming back into CVNA.
CONCLUSION:
Cavana has had an explosive run, where in my opinion it is not sustainable for the time being. Especially so that we've hit a MAJOR RESISTANCE ZONE. A pullback is inevitable. Ive highlighted some ZONES and Support convergences that, in my opinion can be areas of POTENTIAL BOUNCES and BUY ZONES to observe. When thinking about price dropping, its important to look at it ONE STEP AT A TIME. Example -> Look to the 0.786 FIB level first, if we close & CONFIRM below, look to the next TREND line or FIB level or other ZONES highlighted above and be level headed. This is ABSOLUTELY NOT A TIME TO BUY in my opinion. Alot of signs show overbought conditions especially in the RSI and STOCH RSI. Wait and observe to see what happens for the next 3 day candle close.

Auto nation - $CVNA again

Exciting times!
CVNA: Upcoming Reversal?From my previous post on CVNA, you can see that I have an overall bearish outlook on the stock due to a dubious earnings report last week and a share offering that could add 35m shares to the float.
I have been watching the 2hr chart closely, which shows that we could be in for a large drop soon followed by a downtrend. This is best illustrated by looking at PVI/NVI to help put current events into context.
On the 2hr Chart, NVI flipped positive on June 8th which signified the beginning of the impressive short squeeze. After last week's earnings report, however, you can see that NVI has been moving downwards and flipped below the MA today on the 2hr and 4hr charts. On the other hand, PVI has been riding well above the MA since early May and has been mostly flat for the past week.
Since CVNA started to release shares, it appears as though institutions have been trying to quietly offload them to the exchange without triggering a massive selloff. So far it appears to have been working, as the price has hovered around $45 support.
Things could be changing though. Although short interest is declining and volume is decreasing, dilution and the poor state of the company are forcing institutions to sell. It looks like they're trying to keep the price near current levels. Time may be running out though and I think if the price moves past Monday's lows we could see a massive sell off.
I'm also watching closely for Aroon to cross on the 4hr chart to mark the start of a big drop.
$CVNA A Pure Short Squeeze PlayArguably the best performing stock in 2023, Carvana Co. (NYSE: CVNA) remains on a steady upward trajectory following its impressive Q2 performance. With the company smashing analyst expectations for Q2 revenue and EPS, the company shared more positive news regarding its debt. As is, the company reached an agreement with its noteholders to eliminate a substantial amount of its 2025 and 2027 unsecured note maturities and lower its interest expense over the next 2 years. In this way, the company’s profitability prospects improved significantly which could make CVNA stock poised to continue its impressive run since the beginning of the year thanks to its improved outlook.
CVNA Fundamentals
New Hope
Although CVNA surprised investors with much better than expected earnings in Q2, investors are enthusiastic about the stock’s outlook due to the restructuring deal that the company had with its noteholders. Through this agreement, CVNA was able to solve a major issue as it reduced its debt by $1.2 billion by eliminating 83% of its 2025 and 2027 unsecured note maturities – reducing its interest expense by $430 million per year over the next 2 years.
The significance of this deal cannot be overstated since this deal shows the company’s debtors’ confidence in its ability to navigate through its debt successfully without going bankrupt. This is an especially bullish signal for investors since the company now has a better chance to tackle its mounting debt.
Not only that, but the reduction in interest expense will significantly boost CVNA’s profitability prospects since the company had an interest expense of $486 million in 2022 and has paid $314 million in interest so far this year. Based on this CVNA may inch closer to profitability in the next 2 years – especially since it is already working to reduce its costs.
Risks
However, the deal has its own risks that investors should note, chief among them is that it will pay higher interest on all of its debt. In this way, CVNA may find itself in a similar situation when the new notes approach maturity. Additionally, the deal stipulates that the company has to raise a minimum of $350 million by issuing new shares which would dilute current shareholders considering that the company may issue up to 35 million shares or $1 billion worth of shares whichever is greater. Considering the company’s current debt situation, it would be more inclined to raise the full $1 billion which would significantly dilute shareholders.
Despite the deal’s substantial short-term benefits, it could be seen as the management kicking the can down the road which might backfire if CVNA is unable to successfully turn around its business.
CVNA Financials
Looking into CVNA’s Q2 report, the first thing that stands out is its revenues which came at $2.9 billion. While the company’s revenues declined YoY from $3.8 billion, it beat analyst estimates of $2.6 billion. The second thing that stands out in CVNA’s earnings is its gross profit improving YoY from $396 million to $499 million. This improvement was driven by the company reporting a second consecutive record gross profit per unit (GPU) of $6520 – a 94% increase YoY. At the same time, the company’s operating costs declined significantly YoY from $721 million to $452 million which indicates that the company’s turnaround plan is moving in the right direction. Based on this, CVNA’s net loss improved YoY from $438 million to $105 million.
As for its balance sheet, CVNA’s assets decreased from $8.6 billion at the beginning of the year to $7.8 billion. While this may be seen as a negative thing, it was driven by the company’s vehicle inventory decreasing from $1.8 billion to $1.3 billion which is another indicator of the success of the company’s plan. Additionally, the company’s finance receivables held for sale decreased over the same period from $1.3 billion to nearly $1.1 billion which shows that there is strong demand for the company’s loans. Meanwhile, the company’s cash balance increased from $434 million to $541 million which could be attributed to the decline in the company’s vehicle inventory.
Technical Analysis
CVNA stock is in a neutral trend with the stock trading in a sideways channel between $41.2 and $57.3. Looking at the indicators, the stock is trading above the 200 and 50 MAs which is a bullish indication, however, the stock recently broke the 21 MA support which is a bearish indication. Meanwhile, the RSI is neutral at 49 and the MACD is curling bullishly.
As for the fundamentals, CVNA received a major boost in the short term following the debt restructuring deal as it reduced its debt by $1.2 billion and its interest expense by $430 million per year over the next 2 years. However, since the deal stipulates that the company raises capital through issuing new equity, the expected dilution may send the stock price lower. For this reason, investors could wait for the dilution to be over before entering long positions in CVNA stock.
CVNA Forecast
Following CVNA’s debt restructuring deal, the company’s prospects improved substantially due to the $1.2 billion reduction in its debt. At the same time, the company may be closer to profitability than ever as a result of the $430 million reduction in interest expense over the next 2 years – especially if the company continues to reduce its costs at the current pace.
While the company’s plan appears to be moving in the right direction, any setbacks could set the company back significantly as it is set to pay higher interest on its debt based on the deal. In this way, the company may find itself in a similar position in the future if its plan does not provide the anticipated results.
Despite this, the company has been running more efficiently than ever and its ongoing improvements could see CVNA stock continue its impressive run since the beginning of the year on more positive updates.
CVNA possible price action on 7/21Shorted CVNA when it broke support at $50 after a huge leg up on Wednesday. Looking ahead to Friday, VWMA and MACD on 15m chart could flip positive during early trading - pushing price up along the edge of the cloud - before hitting heavy resistance around $48.30. If the price follows the dotted arrow pattern, it may drop significantly before close or after hours.
Price went down slightly during after hours trading on Thursday and could crash to <$40 at open. The catalyst Friday will be whether dilution news is released, and if so, when. Going to watch closely in the morning before buying more puts, but overall I'm pretty confident that CVNA will continue to decline through the next week.
Expecting price to stay in the $38-$48 range 7/21.
Put option on $CVNAbought yesterday a put option strike $50. It was expensive with breakeven of dropping to $36 from $50 but I think it will be in the money as this is a strange stock move with very high volume but small candle. So there might be some price manipulation in the price for pump and dumb effect.
CVNA Short IdeaHello friends.
We have shorted CVNA with a small size. We placed a stop loss above the local high at $57.19 and a take profit down at $30.
The idea for this trade is based on elliott wave theory. The cleanly visible wave count shows a completed move to the upside which means we should expect substantial downside for CVNA in the near future. The other reason we took this trade was because we can see a clean sweep of liquidity at the highs which is a pattern that we've seen often occur when bubble stocks have reached their final peak.
