A Dropbox Full of Cash: DBX Breaks to New Highs After Clearing Important Levels

 Dropbox (DBX) hit a record high Monday morning at $43.50. I sold my long into the strength, but let’s go back and reverse engineer the rally, level by level. Last Wednesday, I said this in my Morning Note: “DBX has had many false starts. We’ll see if this one is better. Bulls want it to continue above $31 and hold that level.” That $31 level was Tuesday’s high, as you can see on this chart:.. It managed to get above $31, touching $31.90. That made $34 – the IPO reaction high — a big spot to watch.  Then I said: DBX was on the stronger side again yesterday. It had a decent Day #1 Tuesday and cleared $31 yesterday. There’s a big base, and if it can clear $31.90, there could be a real move to the post-IPO highs near $34.83. Now let’s look at the “After” chart:  As you can see, DBX cut thorough $31 like a knife through butter on Wednesday. And on Thursday, it gapped above the descending trendline to pass the post-IPO highs near $34.83. As i write this, it’s over $36. Then on Monday, DBX opened up green and power higher. I sold my position into the morning strength.The stock hit a high of $43.50 – wow. The lesson: keep an eye on post-IPO highs and lows. They are very important pivots for judging action, and sometimes signal follow-through because they create F.O.M.O. (Fear of Missing Out) for traders that worry about getting left behind. P.S. For the first time ever, Scott’s teaching his unique method of game planning that could be your answer to trading frustration. And it’s going down live: Learn About the Active Trader Summit.

Can Tesla Drive Away to $360?

Tesla (TSLA) has been a real battleground stock lately. Last week it had a big day on volume, clearing $301 and then the $310 area. On Monday morning, I said “f it holds the $317 area, volume could come in to clear last week’s high.” Well, volume came in and it hit $354.66. Wow! It could use a few days off. But if it can flag above the $338 area and let the moving averages catch up, maybe it can take out $360.Facebook (FB) had a lot of news about privacy/data issues last week. It had a Red Dog Reversal around the 21 day on Friday. It got a nice push in the past few sessions. If it can hold the $192 area, perhaps it clears the $195 area. Tech was at new highs and then sold down a bit after the Fed with a small topping tail. QQQ hit a high of $177.14. We’ll see if we get more follow-down selling. As long as it holds the 8 day, it can stay special. P.S.

Can Netflix Put on a Good Show?

Netflix (NFLX) was the first high-beta tech name to really break out and tell us the market could have some power. Today, it got a huge price target bump from Goldman. If it can stay above $369.83, it can show some power and create F.O.M.O. (fear of missing out) in names like AMZN, GOOGL, and FB. The bears want the NFLX strength to get sold, so let’s keep an eye on it.The banks are always in focus on Fed Day. I’m in Bank of America (BAC) and I want to see the $29.75 area to hold.  It’s right around that now, and I want to see how the Fed affects it. Biotech’s still in focus so let’s look at IBB, which I’m long as of this morning. It cleared $107.80 and $110.10 to hit a high of $111.29. Now I’m going to see if it can hold $109.50 to keep the stair step move higher intact. P.S.

Red Dog’s New Dogs: NTNX, BSTI, SOGO

Many people think all I trade and watch is big cap tech, but nothing could be further from the truth. I have a lot of tech names on my regular Go To List, but I’m always on the lookout for new names to add to my radar screen. Nutanix (NTNX) is name that just came back on my radar screen. In today’s Redler All-Acccess Morning Note, I said “NTNX still looks good. It’s getting tight. The bulls want a strong move above $57.40.” And as you can see on my chart, I said the next real level to clear is $60:As you can see on the 5 minute chart, NTNX broke through $57.40 with authority and then cleared $60. Wow! Best Inc. (BSTI) is another new name for me. I bought some yesterday and will consider adding on a very strong close above the $13.25 area.  Sogou (SOGO) is another interesting name I nibbled on. I would get to know it, because it has a shot at working its way back to the post-IPO highs around the $14.70 area.  P.S.

Scott Redler: What Could Trigger More Upside in TSLA This Week?

Tesla (TSLA) has been a real battleground stock. It had a big day on volume, clearing $301 and then the $310 area to see $330ish. If it can hold $313ish this week and close above the $324.50 area, perhaps it can see more upside this week.  On Friday, the SPX absorbed a lower open and closed near the highs. This week, as long as we hold 2750ish, the active bulls stay in control for the possibility of clearing 2779 to test the 2800 area.  Tech took a few days off after a big move. As long as the QQQ’s hold the $173 area, it seems constructive with the potential for higher prices. Let’s see if the F.A.N.G. names hold Friday’s lows, and if they perk up.  P.S.
