Waiting for quick correction, short term call options testing Testing medium- to high-risk short-term strategies, taking advantage of overselling and a breakout of the downtrend ceiling. We're currently waiting for a candle with volume for confirmation. We can enter a call with a strike price of 17.60 OM.
USB trade ideas
Trading US BancorpUSB's stock has created an almost perfect head and shoulders pattern, clearly marking the support line in red and recently breaking it, with a pullback included.
This leads us to believe that with the recent CEO changes, the questionable acquisition of the Southeast bank, and some fee issues, the stock may suffer in the short to medium term, potentially leading to drops of up to 14% to meet the targets set by the head and shoulders pattern.
The break of the first blue trend is already a warning signal for investors. We have an opportunity to win around 7 to 14% while risking around 3 to 4%, this makes a los of sense if you invest in the short term.
USB: False breakdown and a test of 200SMAThings that I like
1. Test at Weekly 200SMA. This MA has been key, acted as resistance prior, and now we are retesting it as support.
2. False breakdown
3. Tailwind from regional bank sector and high interest rates
4. RSI on weekly staying above 50
5. RSI on daily showing continued bullish divergence. Above 14days MA and going above 50 soon

USB Stock Short All timeframes are massively overbought
There is a pattern on H4 and H1
This is a weekly high where there is a lot of resistance
Since it is against the trend I would normally not go for such a trade but stocks look like they need to come down so this could be a trade
tight stop loss and take profit when it hits the H4 trend as this is still very uptrend

Based on our team's research of the options market, we expect buy activity at the support level or sell activity at the resistance.
We primarily consider levels to be activity zones, but not to be a super-fine level for establishing a limit order. Use them in combination with our own strategy, not in alone.
We do the best research as we can to find new opportunities in the massive amount of information every day to help you make data-driven trading decision.
Please feel free to leave any comments you have and like this idea if you agree with us. Any feedback or comments will be read. We appreciate it all!

๐พ U.S. Bancorp 2008 Type Of Crash IncomingWe are now at #5 of the TOP10 biggest banks in the USA, this one seems pretty bad as well.
Let's start with the weekly chart and then we move to the monthly for the bigger picture:
โ๏ธ This week USB had the worst week since Feb. 2020, Covid days.
โ๏ธ A major support level failed in the form of 0.618 Fib. which can lead to lower prices.
โ๏ธ We have a bearish cross on the MACD and RSI trending lower; I will show you the charts this time.
USB Weekly MACD:
USB Weekly RSI:
โ๏ธ While the monthly chart lost EMA10 and EMA100, support was found at MA200.
โ๏ธ The MACD is trending down while already bearish.
How far down it goes will depend on the politics, how much money they decide to print, if the banks will get a bailout or not, etc.
We have to see how it all develops.
The side effects of raising interest.
They wanted to crash the economy... It is working.
Namaste.
US Bancorp: Bullish Deep Gartley Piercing LineNYSE:USB is showing a big amount of Bullish Divergence on the Daily after printing a Bullish Abandoned Baby on the 1 Day Chart and a Piercing Line on the 2 Day Chart at the 0.886 PCZ of a Bullish Deep Gartley. If we hold above the lows it could eventually come back up to see 45-55 Dollars.
Watchlist 2023-03-16 $GOLD $USB $KBWE $GOLD $SNAP $XOMSPY - had another late session short covering rally to end the day. However, unlike Monday, Shorts were unable to push below 383.50 the whole day. This lead to a rally over 387 and then another retest rally to end the day. IN contrast to PD, we tested the 387 level in PM and held again. Although we are in the middle of the range between 393.50 and 380, if support continues to be bought, bulls could send us higher towards the upper range today.
Regional banks volatility has significantly dried up. The trades over the last few days have been a short after the morning shove and fade until the last hour of the day. No one wants to keep holding these names short O/N, watch for a late session rally again if shorts have been in control and they make the first higher high. $ALLY $USB
Oil names were extremely weak as oil falls 15%. Might be too extended this morning but looking to fade any weak rallies in names that are not near support.
$XOM $SHEL
$SNAP - gapping on news that congress is considering a bank of tiktok. Gapping over some key resistance at 10.50. However, RVOL in the PM is lack luster at only 0.5. Will have to wait to see buyers come in, willing to buy over PM resistance at 11.26 if we really see strength in the market. Else, gap in gap at 10.50.
$GOLD - staying above 17.10 for and showing relative strength. Made the move to 17.50 like I mentioned PD. Look for a retest of 17.20 for dip buys which is the PD high and the high vol node.
Watchlist 2023-03-14 $GOLD $USB $ALLY $KBWE $GOLD $AISPY - had a late session short covering rally to end the day. Shorts were in control coming up this morning as investors remained cautious about the banking crisis and awaited more economic data for guidance on the Federal Reserve's monetary policy. PPI spike at 8:30 AM which was quickly reclaimed to the PM lows past the 387 key level. Now that we are below the rising wedge on the daily, next stop should be 380 lows.
Regional banks continue with volatility. Yesterday's short covering rally would have sucked in longs and flushed out shorts. Showing particular weakness yesterday and again this morning. Looking for names that are trading near Friday's pivot low that do not have a pivot in sight or are trading below the key pivot. Needs to show weakness below the Friday's low, don't want to get caught in a swing failure so be prepared to cut quickly if it goes against you. $ALLY $USB
Also watching $KBWE bank sector EFT for relative weakness against individual names.
$GOLD - breaking above 17.10 for an inside bar play, there is room for possibly another move to 17.50. Only if SPY is showing weakness. Look for a retest of 17.10 which is the PD high and the high vol node.
$AI - gapping right to the triple bottom key 20.30 support pivot. If we see continued weakness in the QQQs, expect a push lower t8.30 support. Wait for the break and then enter on the retest where sellers are present. Donโt want to jump in and have it blow out the 20.30 level as it's come all the way from 30.
