Swing Trade Idea – December 16, 2022
Color Key: Positive – Neutral – Negative
Market Setup – Pre830ET
•Global Markets: USA, Europe, Japan, China, Hong Kong Asia –Negative global set-up
•Commodities: Gold, Silver, Oil and natgas, Grains, Industrial Metals

•Stocks: ADBE +4.4% EPS beat; MAXR +121% acq by Advent; ACN EPS beat; META +2% JPM upgrade 150; GH -32% Poor test results NVAX -14% notes offering;
•General: Leading: China Internet, Gold, Emerging Markets Lagging: Bitcoin, energy, S&P500, materials, consumer discretionary
•Indices: The global indices are lower overnight since the European open but have been bouncing since 8ET. Large options expiration today with one expiration at the open and another at the close which in my opinion can lead to potential large moves. The SPY 385 displays a resistance of 390, 395, and 400 with a support of 380. The SPY displays a lower weekly expected move to 385.6 so in my analysis, this is a level to watch. The QQQ 275.6 shows a support of 275 and 270 with a resistance of 280, 285, and 290. I think the QQQ bottom expected move for week is 275. This is a possible large move on open with morning expiration and with a large amount of options expiring.

My Trade Idea: META
In my opinion, META is in play today with a JPM upgrade to a $150 target price. The premarket 118.5 displays a high of 119 for a momentum long or pullback > 117. My targets are 120 and 125. In my analysis there is potential for a large move over 120. However, caveat options expiration can lead to large moves.
