RIG/N trade ideas
Mean reversion momo tradeCould get a small move to the upside here with a small hold timeframe in mind.
If momo is to follow through here wouldnt be a bad place to put on position with the risk defined.
Above the second purple level is constructive for a retracement higher.

Energy sector has been a horrible sector to put your money in for some time though.
$RIG Transocean has to catch a break sometime. From a charting perspective RIG is really at a critical level, historically it has had a lot of false dawns and ended up falling out from these bearish rising channel, technical indicators are also all turning negative coming into earnings . The analysts covering the name have a average price target of $11.97 and a overweight rating, 20 analysts have a buy rating with only 3 sell ratings. A stock looking cheap does not mean it will not get cheaper, despite large contracts wins for RIG investors seem to selling any rips. We have set alerts for a break above $10 for a possible long.

RIG: Potential 5th wave for 26% upsideI am an oil bull fundamentally and technically speaking. In this forum, I shall stick to technicals and I see a wave 4 completion with a double bottom at the 61.8% retracement level off high volumes. Assuming a 1:1 extension off the 3rd wave, I would expect an upside price objective of $16, +c.26%.
Bullish Oil Futures = Energy Companies #18 (RIG)Timing: Pay attention with this explanation: The first week of February the Dow Jones dropped 1,175 points and the major indexes too.
When a situation like this happen is a good opportunity to buy stocks at discount but not intermediately Not the next day or the next week,
it is necessary to wait a few months for things to calm down.
If you look the SP 500 for example or the Russell 2000 too you can appreciate that the week than the market dropped did a support
and one month later the market dropped again and did a support in the same level at the end of March and a pattern began to take shape
(a triangle with the same level of support) and now (May 01 to 15) this pattern is already broken. and the major indexes are bullish in this moment.
And what does this mean= synchronization or timing
For a swing trader the synchronization with the major indexes is very important because.
You can not afford to keep open positions in negative territory for months, waiting for things to improve.
And the other aspect to watch is that Crude Oil Index is Bullish too.
The idea is a triple bottom look the arrows
(Support=Blue Arrows) (Resistance=Red Arrows)
RIG: F/U on offshore drilling. Looking good.This is a follow to my posts from Jan 3 and Feb 8 (please see links below). Now have a big up day and a positive reversal in the daily RSI. Very encouraging. WTI another offshore stock also up a lot today. Take a look at these and process your way.
Here is one view of the fundamentals.

RIG-Looking Good for an EntryRIG-is looking good for a long play...short-term it is crossing over on the MACD and with US drilling news from the US govt....Offshore RIGS are on the move.
I look at this level for 1 and 2 year leaps at this price with targets of 15, 30 and 45 over the next two years.
