I took this position long starting with a larger position size. Approx 20% to start. Then I added more into it with the stop being right behind us. This is a low risk high reward set up. Although AMAT can be very tricky to trade, the chart pattern is very nice. A pivot over 139.5 to set up a break out. Market conditions are getting better with break outs starting to work but only for a short period of time. So I won't be in this name for too long.

As pointed out in the chart above, there is a decent vol coming into the first hour of the day. I anticipate as the candle gets closer to the close of the 30m and 1hr, we might see a push to close the candles at highs.

How could I forget about the fundamentals?? As you can see, the sales and earnings growth is very steady quarter after quarter since 2020.

The RS rating is at 92
EPS rating is at 91
Group RS is at 79
Group rating is 44/197

All good stats. Fundamentally it checks a lot of boxes.

I don't know how many times I've tried trading AMAT. It's been a difficult one to nail down. I'm hoping the market conditions are right this time for the break out of stick...

Took myself out of this trade after a reversal from the HOD this morning. When I look closely, I could see a potential head and shoulders top. With how difficult it's been to trade this name, I am very cautious about it. Not going to press this name. Finished trading it for now. Just doesn't have the push in it.
