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

AMAT trade ideas
Goldman upgrades Applied Materials to conviction buy list.NASDAQ:AMAT has had a nice recovery from the December lows, but still remains 20% below its ATH from March 2018. Caution is needed if intending to jump in here now as this is still dependant on China trade talks having a positive outcome.
The chart is bullish but in that holds the danger of overbought conditions.
Indicators are in a very bullish uptrend of higher highs and lows.
Macd getting quite lofty.
Ma's providing support ,
Golden Pocket needs to hold as support.
$AMAT Price target raised to $60 prior to earnings.An analysts almost doubling their price target on a company one day prior to earnings, may give us a indication of what is in store. AMAT is sitting on quite a critical level and this upgrade had come at a great time. Hopefully the Analyst is anticipating a large beat.
AMAT Head & Shoulders Formation w/TargetNot much to see here; Plain and simple trading with a minimum expected movement from a Head & Shoulders.
Lots of negative news coming out about this company, but it isn't moving the price as much as it used to.
With the general market being bearish on tech, and lot of bad news coming out that isn't moving prices, this could is a good long opportunity w/confirmation of price movement.
Will be taking a short term $40 call option upon break of the $36 level, cutting losses if it goes below $35 again. Super short term.
