Textbook Head & ShouldersThis looks like an epic wave 3 drop of a larger 5 wave crash, completing a textbook head and shoulders pattern. This is not a stock I'd be looking to be a bag carrier of, but it's peaked my interest as it has the potential of a 59% dead-cat-bounce to the upside. With these types of falling knives you must define your risk and cut your loss if support is lost. Reasons it could find support - at $25 it has reached a support level from 2014, a whole 10 years ago. A confluence of the weekly level and 0.786 Fib. I must stress, I fully expect this to eventually fail and complete an epic Head & Shoulders pattern down to the Point of Control. We trade the same charts long and short. Not financial advice, always do what's best for you.

CNC: Strategic Defined Risk LEAPS Entry w/ Room for FlexibilityCNC broke its multi-year trendline months ago, and the recent flush drove it straight into key support from the 2015–2017 range (~$27). Big structural break, but also a spot where longer-term buyers may start stepping in. As noted earlier, I began building a defined-risk long via 2026 LEAPS (Jun $55s, Sep $50s)... a slow-burn recovery setup targeting stabilization and a re-rating back toward the $50–55 range over time. Once the dust settles and we get clearer signs of fundamental stabilization, I’ll likely begin layering in short puts at levels I’m comfortable owning. If assigned, great... I lower my basis. If not, the premium helps finance the calls. This is a long-term rebuild. Not trying to nail the bottom... I’m building around time, structure, and optionality. Giddy up.

Math isn't mathing! Long $CNC for earnings- I'm taking contrarian stance on NYSE:CNC as fears are overdone. - NYSE:CNC has cash in hand around14 billion and market cap is around 13.5 billion. - I call bullshit on the market. Math isn't mathing. - Company isn't going bankrupt. There are headwinds but they will navigate the headwinds and return capital to investors. - This is not a startup coming out of no where. It has 2 decades of experience navigating difficult times than this in the past be it GFC, Dot Com crash, Covid crash or other bureaucratic hurdles.

CNC|Let's take a swing at a falling dagger! NYSE:CNC slicing through the void, well.... like a falling dagger through a void. Not trying to catch this bad boi, but we should expect a bounce at some point. Let's swing for a bounce in that $26.90ish area. This is NOT a YOLO and I hope it's not an "oh no!" Let's keep our wits about us - starter position only. We can add if we need to, but let's just hope we sell and make some quick Christmas money. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION ON THIS MATTER

House of Cards CrumblingAnother Healthcare Insurance stock plummeting from it's high. This time it's Centene pulling guidance, this would have been a great short since UNH was the first to do this. Classic head and shoulders pattern formed after the end of the 5 wave move up. The healthcare insurance stocks are tumbling, the house of cards is crumbling. Does it present an opportunity for a long term investor? Perhaps. From a swing trade idea, if we lose $30-33 then this is tumbling another 25% to the low $20s. Be careful catching a falling knife. If you are prepared to hold and buy on further dips, it could present an opportunity. As this space continues to crumble, I expect UNH to acquire some of these companies and come out on top. But it could take time for this sector to recover, so patience is required. Not financial advice, do what's best for you.

Centene Corp | CNC | Long at $35.00Centene Corp NYSE:CNC is a healthcare enterprise providing programs and services to under-insured and uninsured families, commercial organizations, and military families in the U.S. through Medicaid, Medicare, Commercial, and other segments. The stock dropped almost 40% this morning due to recent challenges, such as a $1.8B reduction in 2025 risk adjustment revenue and rising Medicaid costs (leading to withdrawal of 2025 earnings guidance). However, the company has a book value near $56, debt-to-equity of 0.7x (healthy), a current P/E of 5x, and a forward P/E of 9x. It may be a few years before this stock recovers. But the price has entered my "crash" simple moving average area (currently between $32 and $36) and there is a price gap on the daily chart between $32 and $33 that will likely be closed before a move higher. Long-term, and potentially a new political administration, new life may enter this stock once again as the baby boom generation requires more healthcare services. But holding is not for the faint of heart... Thus, at $35.00, NYSE:CNC is in a personal buy zone with a likely continued dip into the low $30s or high $20s before a slow move higher (where I will be accumulating more shares). Full disclosure: I am also a position holder in the $60s and cost averaging down. Targets into 2028: $45.00 (+28.6%) $54.00 (+54.3%)

Centene Corp | CNC | Long at $65As a managed health care company, Centene Corp NYSE:CNC doesn't get much attention. However, it is an undervalued growth stock. It's been a workhorse historically for slow and steady financial returns with a 3%+ dividend. The biggest dips along my selected moving average have been into the blue lines - which it recently tested. While the stock may close the gap near $62 is the near future, it's a personal buy at $65. Target 1 = $78.00 Target 2 = $95.00

Pull Back FishingCNC is below the neckline of what appears to be a Head and Shoulders pattern. The 100% level of the downside from the H&S is marked and price is close to the .618 of the possible downside. Calculated using the distance from the head to the neckline and projected down from the neckline. Price does not always fall 100% and price can fall further than 100%. A lot depends on when the healthcare sector moves again. Price is consolidating in a small consolidation zone which could be a bear flag. Flags are neutral until broken. No recommendation/possible crab but price went a bit below the 1.618 of the 1st leg
