4AMZN trade ideas
My AMZN Chart using Elliott Wave TheoryI made this EW a while ago and I'm now going to share it on Trading View for you.
I see Wave 1 rejecting 146 as that's a key resistance. I then see it going to 114 for wave 2 as a key support line. I do have a zone for wave 2 however which is 114 --> 110 --> 101
Good luck!

Amazon PerspectiveJust looking at the Amazon Chart, I haven't looked at it for almost a year at this point and ironically we are in the same spot. The drop that I expected once we stalled in resistance did play out; however, Amazon has been able to keep up strong performances and has found itself back in position of resistance.
I do think this is strong resistance as it was just so euphoric when we hit the highs above this level, it was pandemic belief that we would all be living at home and getting drone delivered goods, even groceries from Amazon.
Competitors continue to exist for every Amazon service and they are strong and diverse, Amazon is still the best at what they do so there is no reason to be overly bearish; however, with inflation ticking up and some fear entering the market I would expect a pullback.
If Amazon can smash the October expectations we could see an inverse head and shoulders to round out this bearish period and maybe even head to new highs in mid to late 2024 (assuming a strong macro economic environment)
This is just my drawings and opinions.
AMZN LONGYes, the knife is falling and I am trying to catch it so don't try this at home. Started a position at $83.90. I'll double the position if/when it hits that lower trend line in the area I circled around $70 or so. If that line holds I'll be looking for at least a 2 legged pullback to $110-120 and at most a run up to $145. Under $65 and I'm taking the loss.

Amazon's Soaring Performance Sparks Investor Interest...Amazon's Soaring Performance Sparks Investor Interest: A Deeper Look at the FAANG Giant's Potential
Amazon, the e-commerce behemoth, has been riding an impressive upward trajectory in the stock market following a highly favorable quarterly update that ignited optimism among investors. With a remarkable revenue of $134.4 billion, showcasing an impressive 11% year-over-year growth, and a substantial leap in diluted earnings per share to $0.65, a noteworthy improvement from the previous year's loss of $0.20, Amazon has not only exceeded expectations but has also sent ripples of excitement through Wall Street. This momentous performance resulted in a notable 10% surge in the stock's value the day following the announcement.
The current landscape finds Amazon basking in robust momentum across its diverse business segments. Yet, amid the excitement, a crucial question emerges: Are Amazon shares a prudent investment choice at this juncture? To make a well-informed decision, investors must meticulously examine several pivotal factors revolving around this prominent FAANG stock.
Within Amazon's performance, two compelling narratives beckon investors' attention. The first narrative centers on the company's exceptional double-digit revenue growth in the preceding quarter – a feat that is particularly remarkable given Amazon's colossal size. This growth serves as a testament to the expansive potential that still lies within the markets Amazon operates in. Furthermore, this robust revenue surge hints at a stabilizing operational environment, bolstered by the overall resilience of the economy characterized by temperate inflation rates and low unemployment. Notably, other tech giants like Apple, Alphabet, Microsoft, and Meta Platforms have similarly surpassed the consensus analyst revenue projections, contributing to the favorable outlook for Amazon.
The second aspect that adds to the allure for investors is Amazon's remarkable surge in profitability. A stark contrast to the $2 billion net loss reported in the same period a year ago, the most recent quarter boasts a substantial profit of $6.8 billion. Emulating its tech counterparts, Amazon adeptly implemented effective cost-cutting strategies, significantly reducing its employee headcount by 27,000 since the close of the previous year. Consequently, the company's operating margin has ascended to 5.7% in Q2, a substantial leap from the 2.7% recorded in the corresponding quarter of the preceding year.
Glimpsing into the future, the positive trajectory continues as Amazon's management forecasts an impressive performance for the ongoing quarter. Anticipated revenue growth ranging from 9% to 13% accompanies an even more striking projection of a 180% surge in operating income at the midpoint. These promising forecasts offer compelling grounds for investors to consider Amazon as a potent contender for their investment endeavors.
Of paramount significance to investors is Amazon's flagship e-commerce operations, which remain a cornerstone of the company's identity and performance. Noteworthy is the notable 5% growth in sales experienced by the company's online stores, marking a substantial improvement compared to the stagnant growth witnessed in Q2 2022. This segment notably contributed to a significant 39% of Amazon's total revenue during the last quarter, underscoring its pivotal role in the company's overarching success.
In the context of the surging interest in artificial intelligence (AI), it comes as no surprise that AI took center stage during the Q2 2023 earnings call. CEO Andy Jassy emphatically emphasized Amazon's unwavering commitment to integrating generative AI applications across all facets of the business to elevate customer experiences.
Amazon Web Services (AWS), a dominant force in the cloud industry, is poised to emerge as a pivotal nexus for AI integration within its offerings. Jassy's emphasis on data as the cornerstone of AI further accentuates Amazon's vantage point, given its vast customer base in the cloud sector, positioning the company as a trailblazer in the AI revolution.
While AWS exhibited a minor deceleration in sales growth at 12% year over year during the last quarter, the impressive 24.2% operating margin underscores the unwavering strength and profitability of AWS within Amazon's multifaceted business portfolio.
As Amazon's potent momentum prevails, numerous factors kindle optimism about the company's future prospects. Reinvigorated revenue growth coupled with a consistent ascent in profits underscores a robust performance spanning all operational segments.
This stellar performance hasn't gone unnoticed by investors, resulting in an astonishing 69% surge in the stock's value in 2023 (as of August 4). Remarkably, even in the midst of this surge, the stock remains attractively priced, trading at a trailing price-to-sales multiple of 2.7 – notably lower than its trailing 10-year average of 3.1. In actuality, excluding the past year, Amazon hasn't exhibited such appealing valuation since 2017.
Positioned as a commanding force that profoundly influences both consumers and businesses on a daily basis, Amazon commands a pivotal role in the market while offering abundant growth potential for the future. In light of these compelling factors, Amazon emerges as an enticing candidate worthy of consideration for inclusion in one's investment portfolio.
Collect Cash Waiting To Buy Amazon...Hey guys! Today, we're looking at a Trade Idea in Amazon, the giga-cap tech company and retail behemoth.
Like most of our trade ideas, this post focuses on selling put options - this time, on NASDAQ:AMZN shares.
In case you're unfamiliar with options -> when you sell a put option, one of two things happens.
Either;
A.) The stock price finishes above the strike price of the put when the put expires, in which case you make money.
B.) The stock price finishes below the strike price of the put when the put expires, in which case you’re forced to buy the stock at the strike price.
With the trades we publish, if the stock goes up, sideways, or down a bit, you'll make money. If the stock goes down a lot, then you'll be forced to buy shares.
In other words - either make money, or buy the dip!
The trick is finding the right stock at the right time.
Right now, Amazon seems like a great candidate for this strategy.
Selling the September 22nd, $131 strike put options yields more than 13.4% on an annualized basis, and the company is well positioned for a trade like this.
The company recently reported results, and they were good, showing a continued rebound in FCF and top line growth:
The company is still diluting shareholders at quite a rate, which isn't the best thing in the world, but it's alright considering the overall demand profile for the stock.
Otherwise, the stock continues to be in a strong bull trend, which supports a bullish option play:
On top of this, the company recently reported earnings and the stock jumped on the data, which could induce further PEAD, or Post-Earnings-Announcement-Drift:
Given that this trade idea has a 77% chance of finishing profitably over the next 43 days, we think its a solid balance of risk and reward. Worst case? You're holding Amazon, one of the best companies in the world.
Cheers!
