Triumph Group, Inc. TGI Stock Analysis

Triumph Group, Inc. stock trades under the ticker TGI & closed at $15.39/share on 12/8/2020.

TGI stock’s 50 Day Moving-Average recently crossed the 200 Day Moving-Average, showing technical strength that began with a major gap up on 11/9/2020.

Triumph Group, Inc. TGI Stock Technical Performance For The Last Year

TGI Stock Price: $15.39

10 Day Moving-Average: $14.34

50 Day Moving-Average: $9.28

200 Day Moving-Average: $8.34

RSI: 74

TGI’s RSI is a bit high, and their MACD trend looks like it may be overlapping/running out of steam, so traders who are only interested in the common shares may want to be looking to unload their shares quickly after getting a profit.

A well timed entry will be key in this scenario, as their 10 Day Moving-Average is 6% away from their price/share & will continue creeping higher.

From an options perspective, I would be purchasing calls that are already in-the-money to account for the pullback that may occur – the $15 calls have a delta of 0.59, and the $12.50 calls have a delta of 0.87.

From the puts perspective, I’m looking at the almost at-they-money $15 puts, with a delta of -0.41, and or the in-the-money puts at $17.50, whose delta is -0.77.

Cleveland-Cliffs Inc. CLF Stock Analysis

Cleveland-Cliffs Inc. stock trades under the ticker CLF & closed at $12.59/share on 12/7/2020.

CLF stock has been on a solid growth trajectory since mid-November 2020, and shows signs of profit opportunities for short & medium-term traders alike.

Cleveland-Cliffs Inc. CLF Stock Technical Performance For The Last Year

CLF Stock Price: $12.59

10 Day Moving-Average: $11.57

50 Day Moving-Average: $8.68

200 Day Moving-Average: $6.11

RSI: 77

With an RSI of 77, CLF is likely going to ease in price in the near-term, offering an opportunity for common-share investors to buy into a more advantageous price as it establishes its new range.

Their MACD trend suggests this as well, so I would be watching these numbers & lines while trying to decide an entry, if I were looking to go long the common shares.

In terms of options, I may look at the $12 calls that are already in the money with a delta that is greater than .74, and or the at-the-money $12.50 calls.

From a puts perspective, the $13 puts has a delta of -0.6956, suggesting that during the correcting of price range, a small amount of movement will move the price of your option in a large way, and as they’re quoted at $0.55 vs. $1.47 for the $14 puts (delta -0.88), you’ll be able to make a little more bang for your buck on that price range establishment.

Overall, CLF stock looks to still have legs under it to continue growing, and their options also look appealing.

I’ll be eyeing their options for a possible trade today & tomorrow.

Aqua Bounty Technologies, Inc. AQB Stock Anaylsis

Aqua Bounty Technologies, Inc. stock trades under the ticker AQB & has broken out by over 100% since the end of October 2020.

AQB stock closed at $9.62/share on 12/7/2020 & looks to have more room to run as it establishes a new price range to trade in.

This means that there is an opportunity to short & medium-term traders to take advantage of profit opportunities from AQB stock & options.

Aqua Bounty Technologies, Inc. AQB Stock Technical Performance For The Last Year

AQB Stock Price: $9.62

10 Day Moving-Average: $5.75

50 Day Moving-Average: $4.49

200 Day Moving-Average: $3.16

RSI: 90

AQB stock’s RSI is overbought at 90, signaling that there will be some evening out in pricing as it establishes a new range after a very strong December performance that began with a high volume gap up on 11/30/2020.

If trading the common shares, I would wait for a little pullback before diving in, as with the overly inflated RSI there is room for the price to even itself out a bit before continuing to climb upwards.

From an options perspective, the $10 calls are just about at-the-money, while the closest strike price for in-the-money calls is $7.50; if you’re worried about AQB’s price being impacted by broader market conditions in the near-term, I would choose the $7.50 strike price.

From a puts perspective, given that the strike price options are $10 or $12.50 for at or in-the-money, the $10 is likely the best option based on prices, as in the pre-market on 12/8/2020 the $10 strike puts are $1.98, while the $12.50 are $3.95, making there more room to lose money on the $12.50’s.

All-in-all, AQB stock & options offer a lot of potential profit & growth opportunities for traders, and I will be watching their options today & tomorrow for an entry.

Terex stock has options, making it easier for traders to capitalize on their short-term momentum, while also being able to hedge against any larger market declines that may impact their share price.

50 Day Moving-Average: $26.61

200 Day Moving-Average: $19.86

RSI: 70

While Terex’s RSI is a bit high at 70, there still looks to be room to climb for their shares.

I am looking at the $34 calls, as well as the $34 puts for a hedge, as they begin to establish a new range after their recent gap up.

Overall, TEX stock still seems to have room to run, giving traders of all different time frames an opportunity for profit.

Party City Holdco Inc. PRTY Stock Analysis

Party City Holdco Inc. stock trades under the ticker PRTY & closed at $5.07/share on 12/3/2020.

PRTY stock looks to have more room for growth in the near-term, which can be taken advantage of through common shares, or their options.

Party City Holdco Inc. PRTY Stock Analysis

PRTY Stock Price: $5.07

10 Day Moving-Average: $4.41

50 Day Moving-Average: $2.94

200 Day Moving-Average: $1.80

RSI: 71

Today will likely be a bit of a risk off day, which will help their RSI go down to a more reasonable level that is less overbought.

With that in mind, short-term focused traders who want to use common shares of PRTY stock to profit from momentum may have an opportunity for entry today.

From an options standpoint, I like the $5 calls, and the $5.50 puts, as given that it’s Friday & there may be a risk-off day both are already in-the-money.

By having both you are protected to an extent from whatever movement that PRTY stock has today/Monday, depending on how long you want to hold them for.

Marathon Patent Group, Inc. MARA Stock Analysis

Marathon Patent Group, Inc. stock trades under the ticker MARA, closing on 12/2/2020 at $5.76/share.

After a couple of gap up days in November, MARA stock is performing well on a technical basis, making it worth considering for a short-term trade idea.

MARA stock also has options in addition to common shares.

Marathon Patent Group, Inc. MARA Stock Technical Performance For The Last Year

MARA Stock Price: $5.76

10 Day Moving-Average: $4.68

50 Day Moving-Average: $2.75

200 Day Moving-Average: $1.64

RSI: 70

While its RSI is a bit steep at 70, the pre-market price says that MARA stock still has room to run.

The $6 calls for MARA look appealing, as they are about at-the-money in the pre-market already; although I may target the $5 calls for a little more money.

The puts will get cheaper as they continue to climb, although if they break their resistance point, the almost at-the-money $6 puts will likely not perform well, so I would wait until the $7.50 & $9 puts become cheaper.

Innodata Inc. INOD Stock Analysis

Innodata Inc. stock trades under the ticker INOD & closed at $5.38/share on 12/2/2020.

After a very strong November, INOD looks to have some opportunity for short-to-mid-term traders to capitalize on as we begin December.

Innodata Inc. INOD Stock Technical Performance For The Last Year

INOD Stock Price: $5.38

10 Day Moving-Average: $4.35

50 Day Moving-Average: $3.22

200 Day Moving-Average: $1.83

RSI: 78

While INOD’s RSI will need to cool off a bit (signaling an overbought tendency at 78), traders still have room to capitalize on its upwards momentum.

INOD also has options, where traders should be looking at the $5 calls, and if feeling aggressive pursue the $7.50 calls.

The pre-market pricing on the $7.50 calls is insanely cheap, but you’ll be betting on no market forces dragging them down in the meantime.

From a puts perspective, the $7.50 is the best looking option, although that will likely not be a major play, unless there is some major market movement across the board, and or if you capitalize on some short-term hiccups while INOD stock establishes its range.

Fuel Tech, Inc. FTEK Stock Analysis

Fuel Tech, Inc. stock trades under the ticker FTEK & has recently broken out (on 11/24/20202).

FTEK stock shows great opportunity for a short term trading perspective, both for holders of common shares & options traders.

FTEK closed at $4.40 on 11/30/2020, and still looks to have more room to run.

Fuel Tech, Inc. FTEK Stock Technical Performance For The Last Year

FTEK Stock Price: $4.40

10 Day Moving-Average: $2.57

50 Day Moving-Average: $1.16

200 Day Moving-Average: $0.85

RSI: 80

While their RSI of 80 is high, it will die down in near time while FTEK stock establishes its new range.

From an options perspective, I am looking at the $5 puts & the $4 calls at the moment while it sorts itself out.

There’s still room for upward growth, but the charts are showing that there will be some profit taking before that happens.

Today’s futures are signaling a green day, but FTEK may be sitting it out, making it worth looking at entry opportunities for common shareholders.

I’ll be looking to play the options I outlined above.

Weekly Market Review 11/30/2020

This week we will begin to hear about the impact that Covid has had on Black Friday & Cyber Monday, which will be a great barometer of consumer sentiment for a year that has hurt many financially.

Another item of interest will be to see not only how Covid cases/deaths continue to climb & where, but how drastic the “lockdown” measures taken to combat it will be.

I will also be interested in hearing more about Flu numbers, as we are in full on flu season now, and it isn’t sounding like that bad of a year, which raises suspicion on Covid reporting.

On Tuesday Powell will be testifying, when we also get the ISM Manufacturing PMI number, as well as the ISM Manufacturing New Orders Index, ISM Manufacturing Prices Paid & Employment Index numbers as well.

Wednesday brings the ADP Employment Change report, which will be interesting to see how seasonal jobs that may have been taken in year’s prior for the Christmas season fared due to Covid restrictions.

I’ll also be interested that day in the EIA Crude Oil Stocks Change, as well as the Fed’s Beige Book & Williams’s speech.

Thursday’s Initial Jobless Claims & 4-Week Average numbers will bring more clarity on the current employment situation, as well as shed light into how many jobs are still being lost as more & more companies are forced to reduce workforces due to virus restrictions; the ISM Services PMI will also be reported on Thursday.

Lastly, on Friday we will get to hear the Nonfarm Payrolls report, Trade Balance Numbers & Factory Orders M-o-M, all of which will help shed light into how the economy looks to be heading as we begin winter.

While markets tend to perform well in December, at/near all-time highs, any one bad report that doesn’t meet anticipated expectations may cause some of the jenga pieces to fall, providing a new entry point for market participants.

Lots of folks have been saying that they see it occurring in January 2021, but when markets are running this hot, any hiccups in data are prone to start a correction in prices.

Tuniu Corporation, TOUR Stock Analysis

Tuniu Corporation stock has recently shown great technical growth & performance, trading under the ticker TOUR.

TOUR stock closed at $3.19/share on 11/27/20, preparing to close out November as a very strong month.

TOUR has options, in addition to common shares, making opportunities for all types of traders to profit from their stock performance.

TOUR Stock Price: $3.19

10 Day Moving-Average: $2.40

50 Day Moving-Average: $1.36

200 Day Moving-Average: $1.17

RSI: 77

While their RSI of 77 is still high, Tuniu corporation’s stock still looks to have legs to run, as it establishes a new range.

Traders of the common shares should be able to find advantageous entry points this week.

TOUR’s $2.50 calls are already in-the-money, with the $5 strike price being the next level.

Given that in the pre-market they are already beyond last week’s resistance level, the $5 calls aren’t as out of the question anymore, with a delta of .364.

From a puts perspective, I’d be favoring the $5 strike price, at the moment, unless they outperform that $5 mark, in which case the $7.50 puts will become cheaper.
