LRCX trade ideas
Lam Research to the Upside. LRCXWe are (probably) bouncing off the resistance. That bullish engulfing, VZO cross, Stoch cross, BB%PCT divergent, candlestick cross on vWAP and US are evidence of the bullish stance on this one. Whatever your system is, be prepared to look at the market from multiple directions. I normally use a constellation of five, but usually more, factors to develop an opinion on trend, market structure, points of entry and exits.
Lam Research Pushes HigherLam Research has consolidated after dropping in July, but now traders may think the chip-equipment stock is coming back to life.
The first pattern on today’s chart is the weekly close of $84.74 from August 23. LRCX tried to break that level in September and October without success. But the stock closed above it yesterday as the broader Nasdaq-100 climbed. Is it finally breaking out?
Interestingly, the 200-day simple moving average is in the same approximate location. The stock additionally closed above it for the first time since last summer.
Next is the rounded basing pattern around an earlier peak from July 2023. That may suggest old resistance has become new support.
Finally, MACD is rising. The 8-day exponential moving average (EMA) is also above the 21-day EMA. Those patterns could indicate a bullish short-term trend.

LCRX RETURNS TO THE SEEN OF THE CRIMENASDAQ:LRCX returning to the seen of the CRIME! ☕️
LCRX is retesting the Cup N Handle BREAKOUT FROM 2023! 🤯
LRCX has already tested and bounced off of its Cup n Handle breakout from 2023 twice and is forming the right shoulder of a shorter-term inverse H&S pattern!
Will it bounce again?! Drop a comment below.
The risk/reward ratio on this one is crazy good, IMO! It's going to take something drastic for that CupnHandle breakout support to bust!
My Short Term PT for this chart is: 🎯$80
My Long Term PT for this chart is: 🎯$107
Not financial advice! 🖖
LRCX - ready for a launchLRCX is compressed and tight here. Probably I would jump here with size but a small starter position would be fine IMO.
Once wave 1 gives confirmation and wave 2 completes , good for going heavy.
Long between 78-83
Stop loss - 75
Target 1 - 92
Target 2 - 100-102
Target 3 - 112
New long term position LRCXAfter careful consideration I have added a new stock to my long-term fidelity account. I am very picky about what I allow into this account. I have started a position in Lam research on this basing of the 100 EMA. I note a rising stochastic RSI on the weekly and a pickup of volume. Given that this market is cyclical, I believe this entrance point is poised for strong gains over the coming few years. Looking back at revenue cycles the stock usually has a moderate red year followed by multiple years of huge growth. Similar to my other energy plays, I believe this is a next level play on the fact that the market overhypes GPU makers. Lam is a play on memory chips, they also have a strong service segment. Memory will need to expand exponentially in order for energy and Ai to expand, this is my thesis. I have been waiting to add semiconductor exposure to my investment portfolio but I have been wanting to avoid egregiously overpriced hot stocks like NVDA etc. I believe this correction is an opportunity for me to expand my portfolio a bit.
LRCX in the same position and price AMAT was this time last yearLRCX following in the foot steps of AMAT to $295? AMAT also repeating the same move it made a year ago right now as well. Both are in the same field both are involved in the production of Ai processors and the tools to make them. I think its ironic that LRCX just happens to be in the same pattern on the same month AMAT started its nose bleed run up.
Option shares right now are expensive for a $74 stock no matter how long or short you look. Somethings going on and the companies in the semiconductor industry know it. Nvidia and AMD prices right now are very inviting which means they had to reduce their prices either by splitting them or something but they must know that a boom is about to happen and they needed to make their prices in line with what is about to happen. I haven't looked at stock options in over a year and I was surprised to see everyones prices had gone up. Yet Semiconductors all seem to be price point. With the materials side looking Bullish as hell. I am just saying keep your eyes open on this because its about to happen all over the place.....a shift a huge shift.

Investment Opportunity in Lam ResearchHello,
With the increasing spotlight on semiconductor companies, particularly giants like Nvidia, many investors are closely tracking the sector's performance. As the AI revolution continues to unfold, identifying companies that have lagged in price, yet hold strong potential, could present significant opportunities. One such company is Lam Research Corp. , a prominent player in the semiconductor space.
About Lam Research:
Lam Research designs, manufactures, markets, and refurbishes semiconductor processing equipment used in the fabrication of integrated circuits. Despite flying under the radar compared to some of its peers, it offers a compelling case for investment.
Here are some key metrics that highlight its strong financial position:
- Market Cap : Approximately $99.6 billion
- Basic EPS : $2.91
- 2024 Revenues : $14.9 billion, with net revenues growing steadily to $3.83 billion
- Share Buybacks : The company has consistently repurchased its shares over the past five years, contributing to shareholder value by avoiding dilution.
- Total Cash : $5.85 billion, with total current liabilities at $4.34 billion, demonstrating a healthy liquidity position and the ability to cover short-term obligations.
- Book Value Per Share : $65. With the current share price hovering near this figure, the stock could be undervalued, making this an attractive entry point.
Technical Perspective:
From a technical analysis standpoint, Lam Research has recently experienced a pullback, presenting a potentially ideal buying opportunity. Our target price for this stock is **$110 per share**.
We strongly recommend considering this stock for your portfolio.
Good luck!
LRCX Bounce Trade IdeaNASDAQ:LRCX This is just ridiculous...Lam Research down over 30% in just a short "two week" period. It really goes to show that risk management is everything and even the most economically important companies on the planet are not full protected from price fluctuations.
Bounce trade idea might occur here and rally towards the 200MA.
