$CELH Finding Support?NASDAQ:CELH Has recently had 2 events: Earnings, which beat expectations and had an initial upward push on price then failed. Then it had a 3/1 stock split. One must wonder why the split as the market did not seem to like it.
The pullback, which is a little steep, may be finding support at both the most recent lows and a rising 40 Week MA (white). Of course, I do not know if it will be supported but I have an alert set on the downtrend line. Should it alert me, I will use a lower timeframe to see if there is a good risk reward entry. TBD.
NASDAQ:CELH On a closing basis, just over a 27% drop in price, not too severe and may present a good opportunity. There are several negative things to be aware of on this chart and that is, it is below the 50 DMA and all other shorter-term MA’s. Another is the selling volume has been heavy but declining.
This is one you may want to put on a watchlist as it has been a wall street darling. Maybe again? Of course, several closes below the 40-week MA would tell me that this whole idea is void.

$MBLY Breaking Out?
I have been in and out of NASDAQ:MBLY several times in the last few months. I posted an idea a few weeks ago (link below). I am back in this one this morning as it breaks above the most recent high. It looks to me that it is getting ready to run. All TBD. My stop is below today’s low. If it does not work, I will be out for a small loss. I will look to add on any consolidation over the breakout area.

$TSLA Consolidating in a VCP (Volatility Contraction Pattern)I traded NASDAQ:TSLA last week when it broke out of that inner wedge pattern. It went quickly and then pulled back. I made a good profit on a 2-day trade. A link is below for last week’s idea on the trade.
It looks to me that Tesla is finding some support in the low $230’s area. I have an alert set just over today’s high. If it triggers and the market are doing well, I will drop to a lower timeframe it looks for a good risk reward entry. All TBD.

$DJI regains some ground, $RUT leading, $VIX strugglesAfter the outside day formed by TVC:DJI , it pumped a bit and regained most of what was lost in that 500pt loss.
1Hr chart sows it trading back above the moving avgs (intraday).
TVC:RUT is the only index that has traded ABOVE its recent highs.
TVC:VIX is struggling to close above a small resistance area, 14.

US Equities Intrinsic AverageThe yellow resistance zone is expected to be pivotal for the stock markets. Although some indices appear close to ATHs, the presented spread graph suggests the intrinsic value of the US stock market isn't even half of the previous highs.
Same graph with monthly candlesticks:
Fundamentally:
Although rate cuts are expected, historically they mark the beginnings of bear markets
The significant 7 makes up more weight than Canada, France, China, UK, and Japan combined.
With de-dollarisation and world progressively relying less on US doesn't look positive for the 7 giants
Timing the markets can be difficult, but with
the recent deterioration in the labour market
shaky elections in 2024 (likely to be priced in before)
historically strong equities from January to mid-February
--> I speculate a bear takeover in early 2024.
For intrinsic graph sceptics, here is a simple average of the 4 indices:
GOOD NEWS BAD NEWS for SPY DIAThe SVXY peaked right into the target of 104 at 103.65 For wave 5 of 3 of 5 we just saw wave 4 low . we did the exact in most every Aspect in svxy and the sp 500 . this lead to the last draw out battle from july 6 to july 27 final peak. 20 days if we align the two time frames we get a TOP 1/ 11/2024 see chart golden ratio spirals they are near perfect MATCH this would take the svxy to target of 106 and put the VIX at under a 12 handle
$IWM $145 before $400+?I know everyone is getting excited about IWM as it's rallied a lot over the last couple of months, but I think it'll face some pain in the coming weeks before it really starts to outperform.
I am of the mindset that everything has it's cycle and I do think that going into the next bull market, that QQQ and SPY will underperform relative to IWM.
That said, I think IWM will have a 25% correction before the bull market really begins. However after that happens, I think IWM will go to hit new highs and top around $400 sometime in 2025-2026.
Support = $145
Resistance = ~$400
$TAN Up 17% in 2 Days!Who says you cannot make big returns on ETF's?
AMEX:TAN the Solar Sector ETF Is on fire. It looks like rotation back into the beaten-up sector. Names Like NASDAQ:FSLR and NASDAQ:ENPH up even more. Rather than take the risk on an individual name I have opened a ¼ sized position in this ETF. I will be looking to bring this up to a full-sized position on any consolidation.
This ETF has institutional accumulation volume going back over a month. It has regained all MAs except for the 40 Week MA in white. All shorter-term MA’s, including the 50 Day Moving Averages are turning up. My stop is set below yesterday’s low and the horizontal line of support / resistance.

Opening (IRA): IWM April 19th 165 Short Put... for a 2.10 credit.
Comments: Starting to erect rungs in the second quarter (April, May, June). QQQ doesn't have an April yet, and I already have a SPY rung on out in that contract, so just doing the small caps here. Targeting the <16 delta strike paying around 1% of the strike price in credit.
I'll naturally look to add in shorter duration should we get a bump in IV, but may have to dabble outside the broad market (IWM, QQQ, SPY) box to get paid something decent in shorter duration.
Opening (IRA): IWM March 15th 161 Short Put... for a 1.66 credit.
Comments: Targeting the shortest duration <16 delta strike paying around 1% of the strike price in credit to emulate dollar cost averaging into the broad market. I'll naturally look to add rungs in shorter duration if we get a sell-off/pop in IV.
$OSK Breaking Out of Flag Formation?NYSE:OSK Here is another play on electrified specialty vehicles. Check out their website www.oshkoshcorp.com Pretty cool stuff.
I have been watching this one for a good entry since earnings on Oct 23rd. I missed the pullback breakout on Nov 13th, but it has pulled back again and looks to be breaking back above that pullback. I have started ¼ sized position and I will place my stop just below today’s low of day. I do not expect this to be barn burner but a 10% to 20% gain over the next 2 months seems reasonable. I think it can get back to the double top highs from September. All TBD.

$U Breaking Above 50 DMANYSE:U has been a bit of a troubled stock. However, they did beat on earnings, and they have announced 265 job cuts and office closures to boost profit.
I am taking a chance here on a "turnaround play." I opened a ¼ size position just a bit ago. I’ll place my stop just under the low of the day (that’s about a 9% stop, bigger than I like but it has moved that much today, hence the smaller position size).
I like the volume on earnings day along with follow-up volume the next day. It is on track today to be about 150% of the last 10 days average volume so buyers are showing up. Although it is now above its 50 DMA it has yet to cross the 40-week MA (white) and just above that in light green is the 18-month AVWAP. Those could be strong areas of resistance, TBD.

$ONON Holding The Uptrend?I have been long NYSE:ONON for about 2 weeks and have averaged in with a cost basis of 29.20 so I am currently underwater, but it has not hit my stop. If it stays above my stop, I will continue with the trade. I have a ¾ sized position and will look to add to a full position once I am at least $1 over my average price.
I am posting this idea today because I have reevaluated the position with the idea that I might close it. But as I do so, I still like what I see. The only negative on the chart is it is below a declining 40-week MA. However, on the positive side It is clearly in an uptrend (I almost got shaken out yesterday). It is above the now rising 50 DMA and is above the IPO AVWAP which means that by volume and price most buyers are in the money. There is still an overhead supply that could keep the progress slow for a while.
Were I a new buyer here I would look at yesterday’s candle as being a reversal and today’s candle as confirmation.

$CLBT With Huge Cup with Handle Breakout.NASDAQ:CLBT Beat on earnings with an 800% surprise and earnings growth of 1,000% as reported on November 14th. Cellebrite sells software to the Police, and all government entities. They state that: Cellebrite's mission is to enable its customers to protect and save lives, accelerate justice, and preserve privacy in communities around the world.
Now to the chart, I have charted this on the weekly timeframe, so the latest candle is only 2 days old. 4 weeks ago, NASDAQ:CLBT broke out of the handle formation. It is now consolidating that breakout. The formal breakout that many use would be the height of the cup before the handle was formed. The breakout price for that is $8.29. Which is very close in price to the 18-month AVWAP. As of this moment it’s trading at $8.45. I have an alert set right at 8.60. Should that trigger, I will look to go long with a stop just under this week’s low of 8.09. That seems to be a good risk reward ratio to me. I do not set price targets, but I think it is possible to go back near all-time highs of around $11.50. Should that happen that is a 33% move! I can handle that.

$VRT Flat Base Breakout?I traded NYSE:VRT about 3 weeks ago on the break above the declining trendline shown on the chart. It had a lackluster move, so I closed it out for 1.12 profit per share over a 2-week span, too slow for me.
Yesterday saw a lot of buying on big volume. I wanted to wait until this morning to see if there was going to be any follow through. Yes, it happened so I have started a new ¼ size position with the day low as my stop. With all that volume I am looking for this to be a sustainable breakout, but I have that stop in case I am wrong. If I am correct, I will look to add on any pullbacks to the moving averages.
