Just an adjustment and repost of my last googl idea... the short is here near 230.. Target price 197-200 by End of October or sooner.. Daily, weekly RSI overbought Daily, Weekly' monthly Bbands over extended Weekly moneyflow overbought XLC Sector at resistance here at 113.00 Looking for a correction here with the rest of the market.. googl started late and is finishing late .. Risk to reward here is Stop loss and Add short up until 235.00 Target 1 - 210 Target 2 - 200 Good luck

Earnings this week... Upside move 195-200 if they pump this but any opening near 200 should be faded .. I'm looking towards a 140 test in Sept - Oct. Weekly is really overbought , I wouldn't chase this up here.. I'm looking for a move similar to what TSM did after blow out earnings which is gap up to weekly trendline and fade Biggest red flag here is SMH (Chipsector) Zoomed out you can see price is rolling over at resistance here Zoomed in and you can see , Wyckoff distribution You'll be lucky if SMH gives you one more pop but this sector and the underlying top stocks are headed for a 20-30% correction (Maybe more).. I'd stay away from the longs until Seasonality flips again around late Oct early November See the link from the AVGO and TSM .. they are already finished. NVDA IS THE FAT LADY SINGING. Eventually NVDA will retest the bottom of this channel , this move will like come with a break below 90 but first we would have to break back below 140.. So my analysis is, Nvda has room for 190-200 if it beats on earnings, if it goes red and drops below 167 it's a short back to 140's.. Either way, we will see 140

So in my previous post I mentioned Qqq tagged its 16 year trendline resistance Zoomed in and circled last 3 touches From 583 to 559 in one week. Now Zoomed to see the last 2month price action and you'll see we hammered off our summer channel support So with Powell speaking tomorrow i think we will be at a cross roads where either we will make 1 more high before sept or the move is done already. Let me explain In my last post (See link) I explained the tech Sectors and that they where signaling a top and here we are a week later. The 2 biggest tech Sectors SMH (Chips) XLK ( aapl , msft) Are both Showing a topping pattern called Wyckoff distribution.. This pattern is pretty much a conformation that Sept will be UGLY and Qqq will close gap at 530 minimum But I've said all this before in my last post.. This post is about the possibility of a bounce to 589-600 in the last week of August. It all comes down to Powell tomorrow.. if Qqq closes back over 571 or 20sma tomorrow then I would be leaning towards one more of 589-600.. 589 would be a tag of that yellow trendline which is that 16yr resistance. 600 would be extreme fawkery and a push back up to the top of the summer channel. Qqq has faked out twice before over that monthly trendline . I circled the last 2 fakeouts here So if Qqq and tech Sectors push back over their 20sma and close the week above it then I'd flip long for the last week of August then come back after labor day weekend with puts in mind. If Powell causes a sell and we close below 563 then disregard this post.. The next best short entry is below 557.00 Core pce and NVDA earnings are catalyst next week. Risky longs below 20sma.. Either wait for a break above 570.00 Or long 563-564.. If you long 563 then be willing to add to your position up into 559.00 Stop loss below 558.00 If you long above 570 them be willing to add to your position up into 567 Stop loss below 566 Over 570 and 576.50 comes Over 581 and we will head to a new high Trade idea If this goes up then I like GOOGL calls with a target of 210.00 for the last leg up. See my link Entry above 197.50 (20sma) Stop loss below 195.00 1st Target 202.50 2nd target 210.00

So this post is more on how I would trade TSLA this week Vs the long term view . For transparency, If I trade Tsla it's usually an 0dte situation on friday. My preference is BIG tech with High volume and IV under 35 (Aapl ,Amzn, Msft) .. Tsla Implied volatility (IV) is always above 50. Before I Trade these tech, I always like to chart the Sector they are trading under. I feel knowing where the sector is headed gives you an edge on the general trend of the stock. The top 2 stocks in XLY are AMZN 23% weighting TSLA 16% weighting So that means if you see this sector about to move higher or lower its usually 1 or both of these stocks behind the movement. Here's XLY daily I've circled 3 touches on each side that validates the channel here Notice after it tagged resistance on Wed tsla started to show weakness. By Friday only amzn push to close gap at 234 kept this up. I think Next week we will pullback and close that gap at 226 here and depending on if we bounce or not will depend on Tsla next move. Or we could choose the purple route and keep grinding. Me personally, i would want to open calls here at around 230, i mean we could see fawkery like amzn down 2$ which would allow tsla to pump 5$.. remember tsla went weak last Wed but amzn stayed strong into friday. Very bearish back under 226.00 I do think XLY is headed for ATH, though. Now on to tsla Let's start with Trendline and Fib levels Tsla is starting the week with support at 330.. Support below that is 326. Over 332 and 336 can come. Over 338 and 345 comes. So If you are bullish you'd either try an entry at 325-326 or above 338 and target 345. If you are bearish you either short below 325.00 target 315 and below 315.00 and 309 comes. Or short 345.00 with a 331 target. Patience and discipline limits the risk. So mid term out look for you guys who like to buy out a few months. If tsla Can CLOSE over 345.00 then I think 368 comes. But being so close To Sept we may get this Fawkery route of a trade between 330-368 until Late sept or Oct then a breakout Q4. This setup would be an ascending triangle and the move would similar to what you saw when aapl move from 200-230 in 3 days. I don't think tsla breaks back below 300 , atleast not in august so I won't entertain that scenario.. like I said, this idea was for a weekly trade route..

It's a been awhile since I covered Tech and the sectors.. To make a long story short, I think the rally from April low is about 95% completed and anything up here is Distribution... After Distribution, usually a correction comes and given the Sept Seasonality I think this correcti9m could be 7-12%. Here's Qqq on the monthly... At this pace , the monthly trendline can be met at 585 give or take which is only 1% away.. with us being so close to resistance, they will not be able to push everything all at once.. in the next week or so you will start seeing more and more divergence where only a select few will pump this across the 585 goal line. Also on the monthly time frame, you can see that Qqq is outside its Bollinger bands, we won't make it out of Sept with that setup. Daily chart Daily candle is 60% outside its Bbands.. this is always a red flag on the indexes... Some Meme stocks like PLTR or Crcl may rally outside bbands but the indexes usually don't hold more that a day outside.. only in a few Seasonality squeezes Nov-Jan have I seen this Being outside Bollinger bands and near monthly and daily trendline is terrible Risk for a long here. Now the sectors.. There are really 4 main sectors that move Qqq. Consider Qqq a car and the sectors are important pieces (Engine,transmission). Here's XLC This is the sector of Meta, googl , and Nflx. At resistance here , Outside daily bbands SMH Home of Nvda,Tsm, and Avgo The overbought at resistance setup is the same as XLC XLK This is the biggest sector here Home of Msft , aapl and nvda also Same shit as the first 2 XLK may have room for 270 but that's it. The last 2 times I saw a setup on Qqq where sector and index were all telling me the same thing was Dec 15th 2024 and Feb 14th 2025 ; Qqq corrected a few days later of both dates .. The only sector that is an enigma to me right now is XLY The home of tsla and amzn Weekly chart This doesn't look bearish It's not overbought like the others which is because amzn and tsla have lagged the other big tech names on this rally Daily chart Needs to clear 228 for Tsla to push higher we head back to 218 Could they correct the rest of tech and pump just tsla and or amzn? Absolutely. Propping up a couple and dumping the rest is called a plunge protection.. it won't stop qqq from bleeding but instead of a 12% correction, you'd end up with a 7-10%. Fawkery. Let's see what happens with XLY So let's zero in on Qqq As far as trading goes today Nq 4hour money flow indicator combine with Qqq 15min money flow combined with us gapping out side bollingerband tells me do not chase the long here, there is a high chance we flush and close this gap today but I don't think we will break back below 578-579 before we tag 585 could come on PPI tomorrow.. So let's say today's resistance is 583, you'd short there with a 579-580 target.. be willing to add to your short up into 585. Cut losses above 585.. like I said , I don't think we break back below 577 until 585 is tagged so today may be a scalp short before the last leg up The bottom of this Daily channel is around 568-570, with the 20ma right below it.. that will be your short term target once 585 is reached. The real correction starts below 566 2 big catalyst next week are Fed minutes Wed and Jackson hole which starts on the weekendQQQ If we close below 579 then that will be a LL on the weekly. We've broken our Aug up trend, so once 574 support goes then 564-566 comes nextMy favorite shorts going into next week are GOOGL and META

Simple chart here ... I think Googl heads to 210 by sept then corrects Daily chart Looks like a rising wedge which I think will fulfill a correction from 210 to 180 between Sept and mid Oct.. I don't think googl will break back below 192 before 210 and I don't think googl breaks over 210

Long term, I think this stock is headed back to 300-400... Short term I think it's a high chance we see 740-800... Let me explain Back in Feb we tagged our long term resistance, corrected and then we retested it with a lower high on the RSI (Bearish divergence) that you can see on the monthly and weekly time frame Last few weeks Meta has pulled back while chips have pumped with good tariff news. I think Meta could be ready for another bounce here My reasons 1. On the lower edge of daily Bollingerband 2. The 3-4 hour money flow is too oversold here. Last 4 times this happened, Meta mover 5-7% 3. Daily hammer candle with volume Near the 50ema 4. Meta closed below is 20ma at 715 also has stiff price action also at So the best entry would be either to wait for a break over 720.00 then long it to 740-750.. Or 698-700 Meta would only be bearish immediately with a close below 680 price action and 50sma tradingview.com/x/fKOYWlgi.. Keep on mind googl has earnings this week and Meta will trade in sympathy on any advertising news The best short setup long term is to wait for a test of 780-800 on the monthly trend .

Looks like 250 is incoming on this stock V-shape recovery happening in real time Don't put too much Emphasison this rising wedge in terms of bearishness.. just use it as a range to trade... Will most likely trade inside of it until a catalyst comes to push it to breakout to the upside Looking for 230 this week I like any Dips down to 222. Range will be tight so keep that in mind if you are swinging short dated

Simple trade.. The moving averages shown on the chart are the 20/50 ma.. if aapl closes above 206 then long aapl back to 213.00 If aapl drops below 200.00 then short price back to 193 gap close.. 7$ move either way.. Aapl overall trend is neutral . I do not think aapl will break above weekly 20sma at 215.00 if it does pump. 215 would be a great area to Reload for a short back down Weekly chart.

Rising wedge just like Qqq, Spy, and most of tech sectors... Price should begin the decline down to 112.00 with a pit stop first at 128 or 200ma .. I expect a dead cat bounce there back to 134 before the next leg down As you can see here looking at the Chip sector SMH You have a similar Rising wedge at .236 fib. And you can also see that .236 has been a brick wall for a year. Zoom in close at SMH and you'll see friday finished with a reversal candle Daily RSI Confirms Either wait for a break below 139.00 or short anything over 140 with a stop above 145.00..
