GRPN trade ideas
GRPN- Monday Penny Stock ?Do you trade penny stocks? (< $5.00). This GRPN stock has not been in business too long with a high of $28 and hitting multiple lows of now $3.40.
Strange that last week, GRPN made a complete up and down cycle from $3.38 to $3.66= .28 cents. To make real money with this kind of stock, you would have to intra-day, day trade and buy a large amounts of PUT options and/or shares of stock. Example: with a 1000 shares or 10 PUT contracts, you could risk a little and make around $300 (if you did an straddle, strangle or covered call). Fundamentals are bad, but technical's on chart appears bullish, at this time
Some technical's:
This is valid for Monday or 5/15/17
RSI is below 50, but going up now
Per chart: On chart bearish Elliot impulse wave (12345) is over
$3.50 is 1st Resistance on chart
* Big question is YOU need to pick stock selections by a stock screener and with stocks under $5.00, really need to dig deep and answer those: what, why, where, how and who questions, before trading or investing in them. Just make sure that you make a plan and trade your plan. Cut your losses quickly.
$GRPN On Bullish Pullback After Earnings BeatI just added Groupon Inc (NASDAQ:GRPN) to my portfolio based on a beautiful consolidation pull back which is extremely bullish after the company reported fantastic earnings. Essentially, the stock is trading at a pre-earnings share price even after reporting great results. The stock has 20% upside easily in the coming weeks. I bought at $3.93.

Gap Fill Offers Big Buying Opportunity For Investors On $GRPNA major buying opportunity is approaching on shares of Groupon Inc (NASDAQ:GRPN). Just 3 weeks ago, Groupon reported fantastic earnings as the stock jumped 25%. Since then, price has faded as weak handed investors took profits and got bored of holding onto shares. This is where smart investors start to scope out a buying opportunity. The clear entry price is the gap fill (a technical term). Gap fill is the level Groupon traded at prior to reporting earnings, before jumping 25%. The price is $3.75. This will be major support and a smart investor is able to buy at the price where Groupon was trading, prior to telling the world of their fantastic earnings results.
Stock market investors look to buy shares of Groupon Inc
Groupon $GRPN has moved on last 5 earnings reports$GRPN reports February 9th and currently analysts expect a loss of 2 cents for the quarter.
It is useful to see what the stock has done in the last 5 quarters: There were 2 rallies and 3 drops. Each was quite violent.
Groupon is not "cash flow positive" but given that online sales may have been much stronger than "bricks-and-mortar" (like $KSS, $M, $JWN, etc), you can look at this stock as a "lottery ticket". It might either be worth a ton more or a ton less when they report very soon.
I'm going to take a flyer on a rally, just a tiny position, but I think it's worth it.
ADVICE: Do not trade beyond your means. Trade with your head. One way to look at it is to risk only the amount of funds that you would spend on an evening out seeing a show & going to dinner. Another way is to use 5% of your booked profits for the year so far. How do you manage overall risk? Use options. If you need to learn how to use options, there are a ton of videos available online.
Cheers.
