Thoughts on SNOWTake alook as I am new to this :) It's a young stock so I tried to map out the past using the 1Hr timeframe. It seems like we are approaching a breakout and I've setup the closest resistance and support lines.by sonofzeus19870
consolidation patternheyy guys,so SNOW seems to be in a consolidation pattern ,with support around the 230 zone and resistance around 255,it still seems to be digesting the listing gains ,once it breaks above 260 and holds it should rally ,lot of analysts have started reporting on the stock there median estimates are around 250 and high around 500 ,after this consolidation ends expect stock to rally or break down , p.s -i am long snow,by a380rider0
Too soon to know, but I am Bullish !?!?I was watching $SNOW from the sideline since its IPO in mid September. Unfortunately from a technical point of view, it's difficult to make any speculation on where and when the stock will move next. However, I believe the stock is in a bullish position. Looking at the chart, I could possibly speculate on the following points: 1. Ascending triangle narrowing and setting up for a run. Since October the stock is trending down, but always staying above the lower trend support (hourly). 2. Stochastic turned bullish. 3. MACD at turning point. 4. Overall TECH sector has been on mini cycles, in which buyers step in for 1- 2 weeks to buy and than usually is followed by 3-4 days of sell off. IF you can get in on the right side of the cycle, you can ride up the bullish wave.. $SNOW seems to be getting in the buying part of the cycle. 5. Stimulus coming? If so, should positively effect the stock. WARNING: A. Stock market is reaching overbought territory. B. Election is creating uncertainty, which in my view is causing part of this volatility. But to me it's more like we dont know what will happen, rather than OMG is going to be TRUMP or BIDEN presidency. C. COVID-19 spiking again! D. A major warning in itself, its and always been...wel.. you know... DONALD J. TRUMP :) This is not an investments advice. Do your own due diligence before investing in any stock! Happy weekend.Longby aristocks0

Is SNOW/Snowflake going to be Bullish?Because lack of data I can not judge the chart precisely, but I believe it is more probable that price will go up after testing the support line. Longby AmirGhadiri4
Sorry folks, I won't be trading Snowflake for now.....Yes, the legendary value investor who likes to buy boring business like Coca Cola and P&G are now moving to the fast spaced cloud technology and even Snowflake IPO Perhaps, he is aware times have changed and he needs to be more tech-centric towards selecting his stocks. Well, beside for a quick punt, I am very unlikely or motivated to dabble in IPO stocks as mentioned in several of my posts. It is not the few hundred % wins that I am not drawn to. It is the quick gain that will whack my psychology upside down, driving my greed zone to the maximum. The mind will be saying; "Wow, so easy to make money within a day.........just buy and at least 50-100% gain within a day, roll over a few IPOs , that is good enough!" That is also how many got themselves stuck when they had their first puff at smoking. Just one stick won't kill me. But it catches on........and before you know it, you are down at the convenience store buying a pack for yourself ,smoking away and looking cool like the Marlboro man........ So long as you have a clear strategy, employ proper risk management , I suppose an occasional quick punt is fine. Just know when to pull back......Longby dchua1969Updated 1
support levelthere seems to be a strong support around 235-240 zone ,the stock tested this support on multiple occasions and bounced back,if it breaks this support it might go towards 210 level,by a380rider111
cup and handle pattern?snow seems to be forming cup and handle pattern with major resistance around 260-265 $ zone,if it breaks out with good volume stock should go higher from there,early in today's session it tried to break out but was rejected lemme know what you guys think or if im missing somethingLongby a380rider4
breakout for SNOW?so the hottest IPO for the year(arguably) debuted during a nasdaq selloff at a price around 260$,the price declined for the next few sessions reaching a low of 208 where there was good support for the stock, having bounced back sharply its almost at the debut level and shows a lot of strength ,the stock has been closing around the days high price with good volumes ,RSI on the hourly chart is around 68 and movig averages look good,the techicals and fundamentals of SNOW look very positive but valuation is a worry,however i expect the stock to continue moving upwards due to the low flotation and heavy demand for the triple digit growth rates the company is showing, my taget 350$ by early next yearLongby a380riderUpdated 113
SNOW/Snowflake will have another huge move if...Because lack of data, Im not sure if the triangle is going to be bullish or bearish. but whenever the triangle chart pattern breaks we will witness a big move on the chart.by AmirGhadiri226
What Type Of Trader Are You?2 Extreme Types of Traders So let’s talk about “What Type of trader are you?” This is a follow up to my previous article, “The Traders Journey.” So here’s what I’m seeing. There are 2 extreme types of traders. The Type of Trader Who Wants to Know Everything 1.) This type of trader can’t get enough information. They’re like a ‘knowledge vacuum’! This type of trader thinks that by knowing EVERYTHING they can, this will inevitably lead to them making money in the markets. So he keeps reading books, watching YouTube videos, attends webinars…knowledge, knowledge, knowledge. … and he hasn’t placed a single trade yet. So think about it this way: Let’s say there’s somebody who wants to run a marathon. So he starts reading books about it and watches videos. He knows all about pacing, how he should train and what he needs to eat. He know the best shoes for running a marathon, and the best clothing… …. but he hasn’t run a single mile yet. Now onto… The Type of Trader Who Doesn’t Know Anything Now here’s the other extreme. The other extreme is the “trader” who doesn’t know anything, but they got a “hot stock tip from somebody.” This trader buys a stock and doesn’t know anything. Here’s a real example: Edith: I bought 10 shares of SNOW Markus: I'm curious: At what price? Edith: $243 Markus: So you're slightly down (for now). SNOW closed at $240 on Friday. Let's see what happens over the next few weeks. What is your profit target? Edith: I'm new at this, so I don't know what to expect but would like to make at least a 25% profit. I always hope one or more of my stocks takes off and I could buy a new home on the proceeds but of course that's not reasonable Edith has heard about SNOW, the biggest IPO of the year. It’s also the most hyped up IPO in a LONG time. I did a video on this: Should I Invest In Snowflake? It was originally priced at $85, then they raised the price to $110, and when it started trading, it jumped to $320! So Edith bought some shares for $243. And I asked her about the her profit target, and here’s her answer: “I don’t know what to expect. I hope that one of my stocks really takes off and I could buy a new home.” Wait…. What??? You bought 10 shares for $243, so that $2,430. I don’t know what houses cost in your area, but let’s make it easy and say it’s $250,000. So your shares would have to rise from $243 to $25,000 to make that happen! And in the markets, obviously anything can happen…but do I see that happening. Well, not in my lifetime 😉 Which type of trader is right? Of these two different types of extreme traders, the question still remains: What’s right? Which of these 2 approaches should you use? The “I want to know it all” approach or the “Let’s buy some stocks and see what happens” approach? I hope you’ve by now realized that it’s neither. That’s why I released The Traders Journey. You should really check it out. Here’s the right approach in a nutshell: 1) Find a strategy that makes sense to you (risk, time required, win %,). Examples: The PowerX Strategy, The Wheel. I made a video in which I compare these 2 strategies according to 5 criteria. It’s called “The Best Trading Strategy 2020“ 2) Learn the rules of the strategy 3) Place at least 40 trades on a simulator. 4) What are the results? 5) If it’s good, start trading it. If it’s bad, what can you do to improve? Now one more thing: When it comes to trading, YOU WILL HAVE LOSSES. No matter what they say, you will have winning trades, and you will have losing trades. There are no guarantees that you will make money as a trader. They key is to keep your losses small. Summary Now again, there’s 2 types of traders here: 1.) That’s the trader with a $10,000 account who sees a loss of $100. That’s 1% of his account. But he’s freaking out! 2.) Then there’s the other type of trader who buys a stock, and it moves against him. But he doesn’t take action. He doesn’t control his loss. Here’s another example: Sofwan: Sounds great. Can you do a video on Exxon Mobile , please? Markus: Hi Sofwan, what exactly would you like to know? :) Sofwan: I bought 100 shares at $44 for option trading. I can't do any trade and showing a loss of $900. Should I buy more to lower my initial price? This trader invested $4,400 and is now down $900. That's 20% of the account! THIS is what kills traders. THIS is what destroys accounts, NOT controlling your losses. It’s like “hoping for the best” and believing that “everything will be fine." Do yourself a favor right now: Check out The Traders Journey post and follow the steps that I’m outlining in that article. Then do the 5 steps I mentioned above: 1) Find a strategy that makes sense to you. Examples: The PowerX Strategy, The Wheel 2) Learn the rules of the strategy 3) Place at least 40 trades on a simulator. 4) What are the results? 5) If it’s good, start trading it. If it’s bad, what can you do to improve? I hope this helps. Leave a comment below and let me know what type of trader you are.Educationby rockwelltrading114

These patterns are usually preceded by a sharp advance or decline with heavy volume, and mark a midpoint of the move. COMPANY: SNOW FLAKE SYMBOL: SNOW PATTERN: PENNANTby HumanIntel3
Should I Invest In Snowflake (SNOW)?Yesterday, Snowflake (SNOW) , one of the most anticipated IPOs in recent history, hit markets. With names like Berkshire Hathaway and Salesforce getting in on the IPO, should you be looking at SNOW as your next big investment? Snowflake Inc. is a cloud-based data-warehousing startup that was founded in 2012, and yesterday they hit public markets. So what exactly does that mean? What Is An Initial Public Offering (IPO)? Well, an IPO, or Initial Public Offering, is a way for a company to raise capital in exchange for small pieces of their company called stock shares… and let’s just say that the SNOW IPO was a big one! In fact, their IPO set a record for software companies and has been the biggest in the U.S. this year. Originally their IPO price was supposed to be between $75-$85, but last week both Berkshire Hathaway and Salesforce committed to buying millions of shares. Because of this, the price was then set to release between $100-$110. But when they finally started trading, it opened up at $249.99. Within a matter of minutes it shot up as high as $318.01. That was over a 27% move within 3 minutes… crazy! That is what we call FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out) in the trading world. And that’s what tends to happen with IPOs. By the end of yesterday’s trading, Snowflake (SNOW) closed up on the day 3.64%. How Did The Top IPOs Of 2019 Do? Last year we had a few noteworthy IPOs like UBER, LYFT, CHWY and PINS. So let’s take a look how all of these different stocks performed out of the gate. First, we’ll look at UBER. Much like Snowflake (SNOW), UBER had an explosive first day of trading. Then for about two months it basically moved sideways, until its first earnings report. From there, things got pretty ugly! In a matter of months the stock went from $43 to as low as $25.58. Now let’s take a look at their competitor, LYFT. Very much like SNOW and UBER, it too had a very volatile first day of trading but nearly immediately started moving lower. LYFT IPO’d at $87.24 in March of 2019, and by October it found a temporary bottom at $37.07. Starting to notice a pattern yet? Well, let’s take a look at another IPO that was really hyped last year, Chewy (CHWY). Its first day of trading was also very volatile. It opened up at $36 on its first day of trading in June of last year. By November it finally found a temporary bottom, trading as low as $21.68. A few other great examples from last year would be Pinterest and Slack. Both acted nearly identically to the other IPOs we just discussed. Slack was hyped up as the “Skype Killer,” and although that may turn out to be true, their stock basically went straight lower from the start. From what I’ve seen over the last few years, this has sort of been the MO of these ultra hyped IPOs. Taking a look at iposcoop.com you can see all the recent IPOs, and as I’m sure you’ll see, there are plenty you’ve probably never heard of before. Will I Be Investing or Trading Snowflake (SNOW)? So after all that discussion, should you invest in Snowflake (SNOW)? Well, ultimately that is up to you. I’m a short term trader, so I like to hold things for as little as a day or two and typically no longer than a few weeks. So for me, I will not be investing in (or trading) Snowflake. If you’ve followed me for any length time you’ve probably heard me say: Trade What You SEE, Not What You Think. And for me, I don’t SEE a trade setup. Could SNOW break the mold for over-hyped IPOs and go higher with out a sharp move lower…of course! But that’s not how I approach the markets. I stick with SRC Profits: – Systematic – Repeatable – Consistent If you invested in SNOW, I would love to hear about it in the comments. I hope this was helpful! by rockwelltradingUpdated 7718
