Alphabet (GOOGL) Shares Hover Near Psychological LevelAlphabet (GOOGL) Shares Hover Near Psychological Level Ahead of Earnings Report On 31 March, we noted that bearish sentiment could push Alphabet’s (GOOGL) share price towards the psychological level of $150. As the current price chart suggests, GOOGL is now trading close to that very level. Moreover, the price is approximately equidistant from the recent highs and lows (marked A and B), which may be interpreted as a sign of balanced supply and demand — and a wait-and-see stance from market participants ahead of Alphabet’s Q1 earnings release (scheduled for tomorrow, 24 April). Awaiting the GOOGL Earnings Report With the Nasdaq 100 index (US Tech 100 mini on FXOpen) having fallen by around 13.5% since the beginning of the year, investors are approaching tech earnings with caution. According to Barron’s, three key themes are expected to dominate the narrative: → management forecasts amid continued uncertainty around the White House’s tariff policy; → plans for major capital investment in AI-related infrastructure; → signs of softening consumer demand. Given the current climate of uncertainty, Alphabet’s earnings report could prove particularly influential — serving as a benchmark for shaping market expectations ahead of other major tech company reports. Technical Analysis of Alphabet (GOOGL) The $150 level has served as key support throughout 2024, and over the coming days it may act as a springboard for a new price movement, potentially driven by the earnings results. From a bearish perspective, the market remains in a downward trend (indicated in red) following a breakout below the lower boundary of a previously active rising channel (marked in purple) that had held since last autumn. However, if Alphabet’s management maintains an upbeat outlook for 2025, this could give the bulls the confidence to challenge the upper limit of the red channel.

GOOGL Weekly Options Trade Plan 2025-04-17GOOGL Weekly Analysis Summary (2025-04-17) Below is our integrated analysis for GOOGL weekly options trading based on the current options data and the multiple model reports: ────────────────────────────── Comprehensive Summary of Each Model’s Key Points • Grok/xAI Report  – Observes that although the 5‐minute chart shows a hint of short‐term bullishness, the daily chart is clearly bearish (price below the 10 EMA and RSI around 41) and news catalysts (antitrust concerns) add further downside bias.  – Highlights a significant concentration of put open interest around the $150 strike and recommends buying the $150 put at a premium of about $0.24 with an entry at open.  – Suggested profit target at roughly a 50% premium increase and a stop loss if the premium falls by about 25% (or if the price fails to break key resistance). • Claude/Anthropic Report  – Confirms a moderately bearish bias with price trading below all key daily EMAs and negative regulatory news intensifying the downside.  – Points to the heavy open interest in the 150 puts and emphasizes that although max pain is at $155 (a theoretical pull toward higher prices), the aggressive negative catalyst trumps this signal.  – Recommends a put trade with guidelines for profit-taking (roughly a 100% premium gain) and a 50% premium stop-loss; entry to be made at market open. • Gemini/Google Report  – Notes the strong bearish daily setup (price clearly below the 10/50/200 averages and near key supports around $150) combined with negative antitrust headlines.  – While acknowledging some short-term consolidation on the 5-minute chart, the report favors a bearish play and selects the $150 put (even though its premium of $0.24 is a bit below the “ideal” $0.30–$0.60 range).  – Recommends entering at open with specific targets (aiming for around a 100% return on premium or an exit if the underlying fails to break levels) and strict stop-loss discipline. • Llama/Meta Report  – Summarizes that the technicals (including MACD and RSI on both timeframes) and high volatility (VIX ~32.64) combine for a moderately bearish setup.  – The heavy put open interest at $150 further reinforces this view.  – Recommends buying the $150 put at market open with a modest profit target (around a 50% gain on premium) and a stop-loss if the underlying rallies above key resistance levels. • DeepSeek Report  – Emphasizes that despite the max pain at $155, the technical breakdown below key moving averages and significant negative news support a bearish trade.  – Recommends buying weekly (0DTE) $150 puts at the current premium of $0.24, with exit parameters tied to breaching immediate support or achieving a 50% gain in premium.  – Notes that risk management is crucial given the 0DTE nature and high volatility. ────────────────────────────── 2. Areas of Agreement and Disagreement Between Models • Agreement:  – All models share a moderately bearish outlook driven by a combination of:   ○ Price performance below key moving averages and declining daily RSI.   ○ Negative news catalysts (antitrust issues and breakup concerns).   ○ Heavy put open interest at the $150 strike, aligning with technical support.  – Each model favors a single-leg, naked put strategy on GOOGL weekly expirations, with an entry at market open. • Disagreement:  – There is some variation in the selection of profit target and stop loss levels:   ○ Grok/xAI and DeepSeek lean toward a profit target near a 50% premium gain and a tighter stop loss, while Claude/Anthropic and Gemini reference a slightly larger profit target (up to 100% gain) paired with a 50% stop loss.  – There is a mild conflict with the max pain theory (which is bullish at $155) versus the consensus technical and news story indicating further downside. However, all models agree that the negative catalysts outweigh the theoretical pull toward max pain. ────────────────────────────── 3. Conclusion and Trade Recommendation • Overall Market Direction Consensus:  – The integrated view is moderately bearish. Although intraday charts hint at short-term consolidation, the dominant daily technicals, high volatility, and strongly negative news set the stage for further downside pressure. • Recommended Trade:  – We recommend buying a single-leg, naked put option.  – Selected Instrument: GOOGL weekly option with a $150 strike (0DTE expiring on 2025-04-17).  – Premium: The current ask is $0.24 per contract. Although this is slightly below the ideal range, the risk/reward profile is favorable given the strong technical and sentiment bias.  – Entry Timing: Enter at market open.  – Profit Target: Aim for a premium increase to approximately $0.36 (a ~50% gain).  – Stop-Loss: Set a stop-loss around $0.12 (roughly a 50% reduction in premium), or exit if the underlying rallies decisively above the intraday resistance levels (around $152).  – Confidence Level in the Recommendation: Approximately 70%. • Key Risks and Considerations:  – The max pain level at $155 could introduce some intraday upward pressure.  – High implied volatility (VIX at 32.64) means rapid moves could quickly hit stop-loss triggers.  – The 0DTE nature of the option calls for strict monitoring; if GOOGL fails to break below key support levels early on, exit the position promptly.  – Overall market reversals or unexpected news can rapidly change the trade dynamics. ────────────────────────────── 4.

GOOGLE's generational bottom made. This is how it reaches $350.Alphabet Inc. (GOOG) almost tested last week its 1W MA200 (orange trend-line). That level has been holding for more than 2 years (since March 13 2023) and it's been the main Support of the Bull Cycle that followed the November 2022 Inflation Crisis bottom. The pattern is almost like the Ascending Triangle that led to the March 2020 COVID crash, which was the most recent time before the late 2022 bottom that the stock made contact with the 1W MA200. As you realize, all those times have been what we call 'generational bottoms', thus extremely good long-term buy opportunities. And as you see they've been on extremely tight time symmetry, all took place roughly every 2.5 years. If the pattern continues to repeat itself, then we may witness a rally (green Channel Up) similar to the one that peaked on November 2021 and reached the 2.618 Fibonacci extension. As a result, setting a $350 Target would be more than realistic based on this pattern. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Please LIKE 👍, FOLLOW ✅, SHARE 🙌 and COMMENT ✍ if you enjoy this idea!

GOOGL - Elliott Wave Final ShowdownGOOGL has dropped over 27.28% , reaching a minor profit-booking zone. The $150 level serves as a key demand zone, where a potential price reversal could occur. The formation is either expanded flat or a running flat on the daily timeframe chart. Confirmation is best observed near the lower trendline of the parallel channel. If bearish momentum persists, prices may decline further to the $142-$140 range before a strong rebound. Once the correction ends, the upside targets are $168, $180, and $195. A new low will form if the previous low is breached. Further research will be uploaded soon.

Alphabet (GOOGL) Stock Hits 2025 LowAlphabet (GOOGL) Stock Hits 2025 Low As seen on the Alphabet (GOOGL) stock chart, the price has dropped close to $156—a level not seen since September 2024. Since the start of 2025, the stock has fallen by more than 18%. Why Is GOOGL Falling? As mentioned earlier today, overall market sentiment remains bearish due to the White House’s tariff policies. For Alphabet (GOOGL), the situation has worsened today due to the following developments (as reported by the media): ➝ Google has admitted liability and agreed to pay $100 million in cash to settle a US class-action lawsuit accusing the company of overcharging advertisers, according to Reuters. Alphabet shares dropped 4.4%. ➝ Google’s division was found guilty of anti-competitive behaviour in India related to its app store billing system. Technical Analysis of Alphabet (GOOGL) In February, we noted investors’ negative reaction to the company’s earnings report, which led to a bearish gap (marked by a red arrow). Since then, bears have maintained control, pushing the price below the lower boundary of the ascending channel that had been valid since 2023. Key signals include: ➝ The $170 level (near the bearish gap on 10 March) acted as resistance on 25 March. ➝ Bears showed little reaction to bulls at the $160 level and have kept the price contained between two downward-sloping red lines. Bears may now be targeting the psychological level of $150. If bulls want to maintain control over GOOGL’s long-term uptrend, they need to take action soon.

GOOGLE Bottom confirmed. Laying eyes on $220.Alphabet Inc. (GOOG) has been trading within a Channel Up since the July 10 2024 High. Last week, the Bearish Leg touched the pattern's bottom, completing a -23.92% decline from the top, which is almost symmetrical to the previous Bearish Leg (-23.32%). At the same time the 1D RSI got oversold (<30.00) and recovered on a Bullish Divergence, while the 1D MA50 (blue trend-line) crossed below the 1D MA100 (green trend-line), forming a Bearish Cross. Last time we had this formation was September 06 2024 and 1 day later, the bottom (Higher Low of the Channel Up) was formed. Among all this, the 1W MA100 (red trend-line) is holding, which is the market's long-term Support since July 12 2023. As a result, we expect the new Bullish Leg to start and as the previous one did, target the 1.236 Fibonacci extension at $220.00. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Please LIKE 👍, FOLLOW ✅, SHARE 🙌 and COMMENT ✍ if you enjoy this idea!

Sharp reversal in US marketsAmid market volatility and uncertainty, US stock indices experienced a sharp decline last week. The Dow Jones Index (#DJI30) fell by 3.5%, the S&P 500 (#SP500) dropped by 4.1%, and the Nasdaq-100 (#NQ100) lost 5.5%. Investors reacted nervously to new economic data, including rising inflation and expectations of interest rate hikes, leading to a sell-off in stocks and a decline in key indices. The drop was particularly significant in the technology and consumer sectors, where companies like Apple and Tesla lost around 6-7% of their value. However, starting March 13, 2025, the indices began to recover: #DJI30 gained 2.3%, #SP500 rose by 2.5%, and #NQ100 increased by 3.1%. The recent rebound in US stock indices has been driven by several factors that restored investor confidence. Let’s take a closer look at the main reasons: • Improvement in unemployment data: Labor market statistics played a crucial role in the market recovery. The US unemployment rate fell to 3.4% in February 2025, marking a record low in recent decades. This indicates strong employment levels and economic resilience, boosting investor optimism and supporting stock market growth. • Stabilization of inflation and interest rate expectations: Although inflation in the US remains high, recent data showed a slowdown in its growth. Reduced inflationary pressure gave investors hope that the Federal Reserve (Fed) might slow down the pace of interest rate hikes. This was perceived as a sign of potential economic stabilization, positively impacting stock indices. • Growth in consumer spending: One of the key drivers of the recent market recovery has been the increase in consumer spending. In Q1 2025, consumer demand in the US showed strong performance, serving as an essential indicator of economic activity. Increased spending on goods and services supports business stability and enhances corporate revenues, which, in turn, stimulates stock growth. • Absence of new geopolitical risks: In recent weeks, there have been no major geopolitical crises or new threats on the international stage. This helped financial markets stabilize, as investors could focus on economic data and corporate earnings reports, contributing to stock index growth. • Positive corporate earnings reports: • #Microsoft (MSFT): Microsoft shares rose by 4.2% after reporting strong quarterly results, driven by growth in cloud services and software revenue. • #Google (GOOGL): Alphabet’s stock increased by 3.7% due to higher advertising revenue and improved forecasts for upcoming quarters. • #Apple (AAPL): Apple shares climbed 2.9%, supported by strong sales of new products and rising revenue from services. • #Tesla (TSLA): Tesla stock surged 5.6%, fueled by strong electric vehicle sales growth and optimistic profit projections for the next quarter. These companies demonstrated significant growth on the back of improved financial performance, strengthening investor confidence and aiding the stock market’s recovery amid volatility. So despite last week’s market downturn, the current situation in the US stock market signals a potential recovery and a more positive trend in the coming weeks.

GOOGL upside potentialTechnicals GOOGL has yet to close below a major trendline, indicating potential continuation of the uptrend.

Fundamentals Revenue Growth: Q4 2024 revenue came in at $96.5 billion (+12% YoY), driven by strength in Search, YouTube Ads, and Google Cloud.

$GOOGL Rising bearish wedge with declining volume; $165 belowNASDAQ:GOOGL here looks weak to me trying to reclaim it's support of $175-$180. This is on my watchlist for a short term short, if this name tanks back into the $150's I will load everything I got for the long side. I see this name in a downside trend currently in a rising wedge with declining volume, buyers can't hold it up much longer. It's retested that support on 3 or more daily candles and hasn't busted through. I expect this name to drop into a support zone of $160-$165. I will look to enter puts off a retest of $176-$178 area keeping the stops tight. WSL.

$GOOGL .... LETS GET LOUD!!!Within the last month, we have watched NASDAQ:GOOGL get absolutely crushed, most of which has to do with a generally weak earnings report in early February. However, skepticism of this price action and investor sentiment is the only thing that should be on anyone's mind right now. One thing we know for a fact is that Google isn't going anywhere especially considering all the data they collect on their users. So why not apply this reasoning into buying the dip? To answer that, we should Look First/Then Leap ... Here is the 4 Hour chart refencing back into September of 2024. Let's start with the circle. The reason I have the area marked is because of the key factors in play that indicate we may possibly be bottoming out on this timeframe. Firstly, there are two lines to keep an eye on, a diagonal trendline and a horizontal price-level line. NASDAQ:GOOGL 's price action seems to obey these two levels (for whatever reason), which are coincidentally in the same area at the same time. Secondly, NASDAQ:GOOGL has just shown a rebound from the 400 EMA which also falls within this area giving a sort of "stars aligning" situation here. But the price action doesn't have to be the only thing we examine to analyze $GOOGL. This is the MACD indicator on the 4 Hour timeframe referencing back to September of 2024. This MACD chart shows the comparison between the last regional low for the MACD compared to the recent regional lows. Between these lows there is an interval of 76 to 78 calendar days (just over 2 and a half months) if I am not mistaken, which should strike some traders as very odd considering their similarity in distance. Amazingly, that's not even the weirdest part... This is the combination of both charts. How about that? Not only are the lengths between regional MACD lows similar, but NASDAQ:GOOGL 's returns between these periods are only roughly 2/3% in difference to each other. This just shows that there is more that what meets the eye when it comes to charting. Always look where others don't because that's where some keys are found. In conclusion, I will be taking a long position on NASDAQ:GOOGL for the reasons stated above. When stars align like this, we are given no option but to act upon our rationality instead of our emotions...

Alphabet (GOOGL) Stock Drops 10% – What's Behind the Decline?Alphabet (GOOGL) Stock Drops 10% – What's Behind the Decline? As the stock chart for Alphabet (GOOGL) shows, on 4 February, the share price reached a historic high above $205. However, despite surpassing analysts’ expectations, GOOGL shares dropped sharply after the earnings report was released: → Earnings per share: actual = $2.15, forecast = $2.12 → Gross revenue: actual = $187.8 billion, forecast = $187.3 billion As a result, GOOGL's current price is approximately 10% below its all-time high. Market sentiment may have turned negative due to several factors: → Cloud revenue fell short of expectations, raising concerns about Alphabet’s ability to compete in the rapidly evolving AI sector. → Weaker-than-expected advertising revenue from Google, Alphabet’s core business. While advertising revenue grew by 10.6% to $72.46 billion in Q4 2024, analysts had anticipated a 12% increase. → Alphabet announced plans to significantly increase capital expenditures next year to around $75 billion, prompting questions about the impact on depreciation and profitability. Additionally, news that China has launched an antitrust investigation into Alphabet—potentially in response to tariffs imposed on Chinese goods by the Trump administration—may have weighed on the stock price. Technical Analysis of Alphabet (GOOGL) GOOGL remains within an upward trend channel (marked in blue on the chart), with the price having pulled back to key support levels, including: → The lower boundary of this trend channel → The $180.90 level, marking the top of the bullish gap from 10 December → The psychological level of $180, which acted as resistance in late 2024 (indicated by arrows) This suggests that the downward momentum caused by the earnings report could slow down or even reverse, meaning the current price action may be a pullback within the prevailing uptrend. Should You Buy GOOGL Stock Now? According to a report from The Smart Investor via Yahoo, investors should not be overly concerned, as: → Alphabet's strong cash flow will allow it to fund its planned $75 billion in capital investments without issue. → The company’s leadership stated that demand for its AI-driven products currently exceeds supply. Meanwhile, analysts surveyed by TipRanks believe Alphabet can overcome its challenges: → 27 out of 37 analysts recommend buying GOOGL, with none advising to sell. → The 12-month average price target for GOOGL is $215.85. Overall, while short-term volatility remains, long-term prospects for Alphabet appear solid. Investors with a longer time horizon may see this dip as a buying opportunity.

Alphabet (Google) Stock Approaches Critical SupportIn recent sessions, Google's stock has recorded a decline of over 8% in just a couple of trading days, as market confidence weakens following the company's latest earnings report (February 4). Google Cloud services revenue grew by 30% , falling short of the expected 35% , signaling that competition in the cloud sector is becoming increasingly aggressive for Alphabet. This has dampened growth prospects for the company, leading to sustained selling pressure on the stock. Uptrend at Risk Google has maintained a solid uptrend since September 2024, with bullish momentum pushing the stock above the $200 per share level. However, the recent short-term bearish bias has cast doubts on the stock’s strength, as the price now approaches the trendline support level, where sellers must prove whether this movement is just a correction or a sign of a stronger bearish shift in the short term. MACD Indicator Currently, both the signal line and the MACD line have adopted a downward slope, while the histogram remains oscillating near the neutral 0 level. This indicates that the previous bullish dominance has faded, and if the histogram continues moving further away from the neutral zone, it could reinforce a stronger selling bias in the coming sessions. Key Levels: $200: The most important resistance level, aligning with previous highs in Google’s stock. A rebound to this level could revive the long-term uptrend. $187: A critical new support zone, aligning with previous lows and the uptrend line support. Sustained movements below this level could reinforce the current bearish bias and threaten the long-term uptrend. $173: A major support level, corresponding to previous neutral price zones. A breakdown to this level could signal the beginning of a much more extended downtrend. By Julian Pineda, CFA - Market Analyst
