AMAT trade ideas
***BUY IDEA***Hopefully it pulls back to the support line shown on the chart and buy on the way up above the 1day vwap
Short AMAT - Bearish Divergences I see both on the 1D and 4H charts a bearish divergence on the MACD-H and EFI against prices. AMAT is pretty volatile so I suspect the divergence will lead to a move on the 1D chart to the -1 to -2 ATR lines (see the dotted 2 lines). This is because the divergence is strong and this ticker often times hits -1.5 and -2 ATR lines.
DMI shows ADX at the bottom, and -DI will go up, while +DI goes down. I expect ADX to rise along with -DI going up, possibly crossing it, this will then confirm the bearish strength.
I have to monitor the flow of the trade to decide where to get out. The estimate will be at least 49.03, but I set my target to 48.47 on the -2 ATR line, which will probably become -1 ATR when the decline sets in.
The StopLoss is set a bit above the resistance line. 1.5 ATR away
I will decide if I will see if it opens higher so I short from around 52. The other option is to go for a market order before I'm too late to short.
AMAT Trending UpwardAMAT is trending upward shown in the weekly chart view, after dropping to the 50% value loss level. This is a common area for a bottom formation to commence.

AMAT is waiting for a breakoutI identified a rising triangle or wedge that makes the AMAT trade attractive. Currently, the price seem to be at support, therefore I entered the trade now to see how it plays out using naked call option.
Entry: 50.96
Rising Channel with possible rebounceA short position. The rising channel was identified and there were possible retracement before another comeback.
The trade was quick upon realization the risk entered was too big for me at the moment.
To have a nice sleep, the trade was exited upon favorable return.
Entry: 50.04
Exit : 51.06
Applied Materials quietly forming bullish C&HTrading at a very reasonable 16 P/E ratio AMAT maybe does not get the attention it deserves, despite that it has staged a very nice recovery in 2019 and appears to be looking to break to the upside.
Volume has increased nicely and volatility has decreased, we think it is a good value play.

AMAT Bullish momentum towards earning to 55 levelAMAT will continue bullish momentum towards earning to 55 level.
Applied Materials Inc (AMAT)I have had this chart for a while but I think now I will share it. AMAT still has a little room to run on the upside to major resistance at $51.49 but is getting close to topping out (with minor resistance at $53.93). While the indicators do not signal we are there quite yet, and that there may be a week before AMAT tops, the chart pattern is getting closer to a 'Go'. Of course, we do not trade on anticipation and will only enter the trade when the price action tells us (break of the signal reversal bar on the daily). Yet, we are getting close to a maximum extreme on our 78 bar SMA, and close to equality of our green measured move line. Unless the fundamental dynamic changes, we are getting close.
However, if price were to break above $51.49 this will signal a confirmed uptrend and we will abandon the reversal trade and only trade long.
Happy Trading
