Times Up For Tesla Bulls As The Bubble Has Popped

4/30/2019

0 Comments

 
The barrage of negative news flow, week after week has finally taken its toll on the stock price. With just a few trading days left until the end of the month it looks like TSLA has broken a key support level of $266 on above average volume. The price action this month with a breakout lower than support is a rather big warning to Tesla bulls that the party is over and it’s time to look at their options going forward.

Based on the monthly price action this month, together with the price relatively close to the long term moving average (green line), the next two levels of support are within reach over the second half of 2019. The next initial support level which was also a major level previously is around $188 - $189 or a $45 drop from current levels. This could easily be achieved in the next month or two. Beyond the first level of support, the next area to watch is between $126 - $128.

Picture

The daily chart for Tesla is looking just as bearish as the monthly chart price action. With the last two trading days breaching its $250 support level of extremely high volume and negative news flow including a large miss on already revised lower earnings this week.

Going forward this week, we are likely to see soon a short-term reversal / consolidation phase take place, with a possible target of its old $250 support level, which is now its resistance area. Given the daily chart has been experiencing a series of lower highs and lower lows, leading up to this week we could see a breakout for Tesla. I'm expecting any rally in share price when it does occur to be short lived.

Once we have seen a consolidation take place, I'm expecting a move to the next level of support on the daily chart of $205 over the coming weeks and months. Especially given the company itself requires a capital raising soon, has high debt levels and has negative cash flow within its current business plan.

For Tesla bulls this month price action on both the daily and monthly chart is an early warning on further weakness ahead for this “Auto Tech” stock for the remainder of 2019.

Nasdaq 100 Hits The Top Of The Mountain - What Happens Next?

4/23/2019

0 Comments

 
This week was a monumental moment for U.S tech stocks, as they reached their previous all time high resistance / mountain peak around 7700, and for a brief moment surpassed this level making a new all-time intraday high around 7715. The week finished off with the highs at around $7690.

This week was also interesting as the index reached prior resistance area, while also hitting the bottom of the long term uptrend line that had been established in early 2016 on the weekly chart, signaling it hit two different resistance areas that have come together. This is significant as I'm expecting some volatility ahead with a pullback coming soon as a consequence of reaching these levels.

The other reason why I believe this, is that the weekly moving averages are quite stretched from the current price action. The current distance shown by the arrows is roughly the same distance as the previous separation before we saw the index pull lower.

Unlike the previous time this occurred, we saw a significant drop of close to 20% off the peak. I'm not expecting as big a fall to occur with the upcoming consolidation period ahead. One of the main reasons for the difference is that the FED has now completely performed a 180 turn on its monetary policy to appease the markets.

Picture

Based on the assumption of the continuation of global central banks to pump liquidity in the global markets, I'm looking for a more mild pullback and an eventual move soon to either the first support level area of 7375, or potentially a bigger move towards 7100 support area.

After we have seen several weeks of consolidation and the moving averages have had a chance to catch up to the price action, I would be looking to see the markets begin to attempt to move back to the prior resistance area of 7700, before it then makes another attempt to march towards a new all time high, with an eventual higher highs created.

Caution Ahead For The S&P 500 Index But No Crash Ahead For Now

4/16/2019

0 Comments

 
The S&P 500 index ( SPX ) gaped on the open with a positive lead from China on a bigger than expected trade surplus earlier in the day. Along with bullish tone set by JP Morgan( JPM ) with a beat on earnings on the pre-open.

The last week or two had shown low volumes as the blackout period grew for buybacks shutting out most companies from engaging in pushing their stock higher.

Picture


Despite this, the market moved higher albeit at lower volumes. However, the bright spot on Friday was a gap open with follow through buying on an above average volume day. Given that the buybacks black out is right at or close to the peak, this is a bullish sign that up until recently had been lacking in the current rally on the S&P 500.

Time For Caution Ahead

Although Friday’s move was welcomed by the bulls, caution is required this week as we move closer to the previous resistance level of 2,930 and prior all time high area. I'm expecting that this area will be challenging for the market to break clear of with conviction, given the strong rally leading up to this area. Given the bullish momentum from Friday we may even see the market move above the resistance level temporarily, (one or two trading days) before pulling back to this level or back below it for some much needed consolidation.

Picture

Since the U.S. is at the start of the earnings season and the bar is set low for EPS expectations, we could see significant volatility over the next 2 weeks including a surprise pullback in the market.

However, as previously stated, I'm not suggesting we are close to seeing a crash in the market. The main reason for this is the series of higher lows within the uptrend, along with the price action clearly above the 52 day moving average. Until this trend reverses with a fresh lower low, followed by a lower high on the daily chart, the bulls will continue to lead the market higher over time.

Bullish Nasdaq Set To Face A Major Inflection Point

4/9/2019

0 Comments

 

The tech heavy Nasdaq index has led the 3 major indices with the surprising V shaped recovery off the Dec 24th lows. This week the Nasdaq 100 is set to hit the old all time high resistance level of 7,655 as well as the original long term uptrend line on the weekly chart (shown with green rectangle box).

The reason this is important is because the market is facing two major resistance areas simultaneously which could cause disruption to the current uptrend for 2019. When the long term uptrend was breached in late Oct 18, the market gave the signal that something was wrong and to pay attention.

Given the bullishness of the market lately, it's likely we will retest the old resistance level this trading week. The key question once this has been achieved is what happens next?

Picture

With the steepness of the rally in 2019 and the uptrend line shown, we can only tolerate a minor pullback / consolidation period otherwise we could see the market break the uptrend line into the red circle area.

If this occurs we would have to review any bullish positions on the Nasdaq 100 index and show caution to potential short term volatility and draw-down period ahead.

Given the price action is currently sitting comfortably above the weekly chart moving averages, I'm suggesting that we could see a number of weeks of volatility and consolidation ahead, rather than a suggestion it's time to look at potential shorts for the Nasdaq index.

My switch to an overall bearish stance for the Nasdaq 100 will occur when I see the price action form a lower high and lower low pattern on the daily chart. Until then, I'm only highlighting caution ahead for the major inflection point above.

Gold’s Bull Run Loses Its Shine

4/2/2019

0 Comments

 
Gold’s price action this week has provided a few big shifts with its sell off towards the end of the week. Gold has now confirmed its right hand shoulder of a Head & Shoulder pattern, while simultaneously breaking its uptrend line which commenced in Nov / Dec 18.

The price action has also formed a lower low & lower high, which I covered last week to members. The final confirmation for a Head & Shoulders formation, which is a breach of its neckline / support level, appears to be a high probability event going forward. Whether this occurs this coming trading week or the next, Gold is looking likely to breach its major support at $1,280 & head back to longer term uptrend line shown around $1,240 - $1,260.
Picture
When you consider that the market today is now pricing a 76% chance of a rate cut in 2019, the price action of Gold relative to the future Fed funds rate direction is at odds. However the market is always right & we have to respect the price action currently being shown by Gold.
