Alright, I'll talk about this afternoon's ER in this thread. It looks to me like FIT can fall a long way. But I'm not playing it because I'm not sure if this resistance is real. Looking at the relative chart FIT/SPY The pink line is the resistance, which is holding but what scares me is the (relative) price is still hanging around it. There's no real uptrend (blue line got pierced to the downside). This afternoon's ER will settle things. I've also looked at the volume profile (via thinkorswim...too much hassle to get a screenshot), and in the 3-year value area the POC is in the lower 10%, so it looks like it wants to go lower. $5 puts expiring this Friday can be had for a low price (20 cents) but the implied volatility is 160% heh. Right now you'd need it to drop 15% to make a profit on that, depending on commissions and number of puts.
PANW looks good Weekly view: It's had this long consolidation; look at the RSI (chart that is second from bottom), when it is between 40-60 it is range-bound, but it has just recently set up above 60. And the declining tops line (light pink upper line) just recently got poked above. Moreover, it's retaken the old rising bottoms line (light blue middle line). Looking at the monthly Bollinger band, above $175 would really be stretching things. But the good news is a new month will soon be starting, so stretching for a couple of days to get into next month would be okay.
hey marcy i just went ahead and moved your posts into this thread here so that they doesn't get lost in monday's daily picks thread. great calls on both fit & panw.
