Everybody welcome back to the Channel! So this week there is going to be a lot of stocks reporting earnings. We're going to look at the overall market and some of these stocks as well to get you ready. And I'm going to share with y'all some stocks to keep on your washes for tomorrow. All right y'all let's dive right into the charts.

Right off the bad: we got the NASDAQ over here and so far I mean so far everything is kind of stagnant. We're going to look over it here. So first and foremost we had the big push. Again, those of you who have been watching the channel, this move was expected: the move up to the green circle at 17.8k right after we got there.

Now the market plays games. Now the market trades sideways. Um, don't be too mad, don't don't be too pissed. This is typical after the market make big moves.

Right now. it's consolidating in anticipation of a certain event that's happening in the middle of the week. I Think FC FC is about to happen in the middle of the week on Wednesday at exactly 100 p.m central time. So during this time between now and Wednesday let's look at the spot.

Actually, no, let's look at the actual spy. There you go. All right. So during this time, um, y'all need to be very very patient and and wait three things day by day.

I Wouldn't be surprised to see the market despy specifically trade between this range between the highs of 49 uh of 409 and 400. Wait 490 and 484 right? I'm expecting a chop in the zone until Wednesday Again, when there's these events, volatility usually kicks in and there's big moves that follow, so you want to be very, very patient. There could be entad day opportunity showing up which you can trade all right, but in regards to swing trading I think it's going to piss off a lot of Swing Traders during those next three days, maybe even the next four days. All right, So that's that's my thoughts.

Consolidation: Very annoying. That's what's going to happen if something happens before then and we see this thing get out of the Zone if it breaks out here. I Will probably say beware of traps and if it falls down here then the market is just getting weaker because again, we had a big move right? and we have to be cautious where the market is stading at at alltime highs like the alltime high is right there. All right, So you got to be real real careful.

Um, during these next coming days. Now let's look at let's look at the vix and with the vix it actually is stain put. The right shoulder is not quite like the move up here is not quite I would say done. It's not done yet.

No, it's not. and at the same time there isn't any indication that this is going to widen up and then fall down here. Which means if the if the vix fall down then there'll be a huge rally in the market. We haven't gotten that that sign yet.

All right. So just watch and see how the vix behave tomorrow if it gaps up right here and we continue to see a very slow uptrend until Wednesday Wednesday may be the day where we push up here and we break above 14.5 which means obviously it sell off in the market right? So just keep in mind all of these possibilities again. I Will say be very very patient. Be very patient this week now.

Uh, First Stock First Stock to look at for today's video we have to look at Microsoft Let me go on the one minute. this is a Huge stock. A Large Gap stock. I'm going to delete this and remove that right.

So this is Microsoft and Microsoft has earnings. It's coming up shortly. I Think on Tuesday Tuesday afternoon. I Don't know how the stock is going to behave and again, holding anything through earnings is 150% gambling.

all right. And if you're going to do it, manage your risk. Is there a structure that could make this a little bit easier? There kind of is. there.

Kind of. Is there Kind of is. All right, s right. There has been a bullish penet that broke out with the Spy right here and uh, Microsoft have been foll when it slowly trading higher and higher and higher.

If there's a good reaction from from Microsoft through earnings, I Can see this thing Spike to 420 I I can see that and then there would be another in day move to 430 so that's something to keep to keep in mind. it's not. It doesn't look lumpy, it just looks like it's behaving when I switch to the daily chart, it looks pretty good for anybody who, um bought right here at the breakout and is swinging long. It looks pretty decent for now.

So this one is the first big Tech stock that is up to the play for uh for earnings reports before before Fomc comes out. so I wouldn't be surprised to see this thing Spike now the stuff that is coming out after FC that one. you'all got to be real careful. like Amazon for example, Amazon is looking real sloppy.

Let me delete everything right? So we got Amazon right here and it doesn't have any defined structures that I can be that can give me some level of confidence in regards to trying out earnings if I wanted to. If I wanted to gamble through earnings like I don't have a reason to gamble through earnings with with Amazon All right Microsoft I Just showed you guys that yeah there's some there there. maybe something there all right. But with with with Amazon there's not so much.

there's the there's the break and the retest right here the slowly trading up, there is some Hammer showing up and this earnings I think is on Tuesday no on Wednesday no no no it's on Thursday this one's on Thursday So it will be after the madness from Fomc so we'll see. we'll see this one how how it behaves I wouldn't touch it I would just wait until after the reaction occurs to determine which way is going to go because it is very hard to predict So um I would stay away from it. The last stock that we got to look at which is also on Thursday After the FC meeting comes out, that one is Apple and Apple is really not looking that spectacular again. it had a move I Shared this one with you guys Again, if you haven't watched that video, yall should have made money on this.

We made money on it. Um, on the way up to 195 from like from here all the way up to here, we made money on it and ever since then it's been going sideways sideways playing these games. There's been some intraday opportunities on on it. Um, especially to the short side and right now it's breaking below a key level of it broke below support right? So if it keeps staying down here, it it it just wouldn't look that great for for earnings.

All right. So just be very, very cautious with this one as well. Um, later on during the week I will talk about them again if there's something that shows up before then in that makx that makes things a little bit easier to predict I will make a video about it on one of these nights that are coming up. but as for right now, that's that's what I'm thinking about Amazon Google and apple and Microsoft Now let's look at a stock that I've mentioned in the last video which I think is going to continue to Trend downwards.

Next St is Intel and with Intel I shared you guys! Why I um I share with you guys. Multiple reasons why I was bearish on the stock and why this reaction to earnings doesn't surprise me at all. The stock is notorious for tanking through earnings. Notorious for that.

All right, like nine times out of 10 like the 10th time it may Spike up. but literally nine times out of 10 it's either it's a it's a um IV crush or the stock just drops Like a Rock so it got room to go down still all the way down to like 40 bucks when I look at this thing. So we got the uh, the inverted Hammer There's a lot of short sellers in this in this Wick right here, right? It may play games just a little bit, just some games. Not a whole lot of games right? And then it's going to continue downward to 40 bucks.

All right, So time your entries perfectly. Um, if the stock is really, really gracious to to to shorts then we might see this thing climb and retest. 46. That way, the puts can be really, really cheap for the move downward.

All right. So that's that's this one that's for Intel I'm still bearish on it. So anything that bounce I'm thinking is going to be a death Capat bounce. either we trade sideways and then we drop or we do this de C bounce and then we drop.

All right. Now the other stock that we're going to look cats. um I Shared with y'all Visa Let me clean up the charts and Visa had earnings. Yeah! Visa also had earnings and it did what I told you it would do.

which is the spike? All right. That reaction I Was not expecting that at all. So this Spike right here and the move or the attempt back towards 270 is expected. There is a huge ascending triangle on the Uh weekly chart and and this it just looks like a little little setback.

Eventually, it's going to go higher. Um, because this ascending triangle right there is very, very clean. and I don't want a I don't want to best bet against it I Don't sure. Ascending triangles unless I know that they're fake.

which I don't have a reason to believe that this one is fake. It broke out and it's behaving really really well as it should. It's just that earnings um, turned out to be in the way. which is unfortunate.

And it's really unfortunate that the reaction wasn't like super positive and push the stock to like above 280. It's very unfortunate that that didn't happen, but this means that it's going to take a sweet time maybe like fall back down to like 264 and then curl back up to above 280 and Beyond right? So um, that's my thoughts on this one. I'm not bearish on it, either it's going to trade sideways and go up or it's just going to go up immediately. Now the next one to discuss we're going to discuss: Disney All right, and Disney Disney looks okay.

It's just that the stock plays games that I don't really like this bu flag right here. Not the best bu flag that I've ever seen, not the most perfect bu flag that I've ever seen. all right, but it broke out made uh formed an ascending triangle which is not the CLE this either. Um, it's kind of narrow uh which broke out and then Fa again played more games and then showed the same nasty bow flag right here, but a smaller one which broke out.

so can you trust this one said maybe I would like to see something better honestly I would love to see a better structure on Disney before I consider before I know like where exactly he going to go I need something cleaner than this? like they're there, but they're just so sloppy. Um, they're really really sloppy. So like earnings is going to be on the 7th of February Expect those contracts to be inflated as we approach Earnings. So yeah, just just watch out for that.

I Don't know how they're going to do, but we will discuss the stock when when we get close to earnings again. I Thought again with this structure I Thought we could easily get to 100 it Like really really quickly. but the volume sucks and the way the stock behave is just terrible. so that's that's it.

I'm not touching this one at all. that is. That's that's the end of the video. Don't forget to annihilate like button.
