4TXN trade ideas
TXN: Top of range of bearish megaphone patternOver the same time fame as the TSMC channel, TXN has been trading in a bearish megaphone pattern and has hit the $117 top of range level for the 6x. No reason to believe the 6th time would be any different from the earlier 5 occurrences.
TXN BreakoutTXN has tested all time high resistance over three times and is heading up to its 4th test. With each test, the resistance gets weaker, leading me to believe we will see a breakout of roughly 6% for swing trading purposes where I would take profit. The market and major index's have been choppy over the last week and have made new highs then have been slightly retracing. I believe there is a little left of this rally for this breakout buy, but take profits before its too extended.
$TXN This is a pivotal earnings report for the entire market. Tonight's earnings report from Texas Instruments must not be underestimated in importance. It will be pivotal for the continued stimulus and optimism in the tech sector which has once again powered the recovery from the December lows. We would love to be very optimistic on the name as we hold NVDA and AMD but we are quite worried about the implications of a miss on earnings and even more so in negative earnings projections. IF it jumps the market will rally with it and vise versa.
TXN - Analog Chip maker investing in new technologyTXN shows a cross-over on MACD at Fibonacci Retracement 0.500 and on 1 hr. chart likely having a short dip below $97 entry area. Recently increased their dividend nicely over last 5 years as well.
Been watching them invest in R&D and they have chips in growing markets for 5G, automotive, communication and industrial.
In the last 12 months, TXN has returned all of free cash flow back to shareholders and increasing the dividend by 24% and repurchasing another $12B in its own stock.
Investors come to own conclusions. More VIX challenges ahead on the short likely. $US still holding.
Aggressive swing setup on TXN to the 200 day smaReally like today's candle. Would like to see a retest of the low of January 29th candle to get into some March $100 calls at $4.10 with a $1 stop.
Let's see what she does next week :-)

Targeting a move down to the $84.00-$88.00 range by March (assuming unimpressive or worse earnings report late January). Could possibly see us going as low as ~$80.00 to tag the 200d ema line.
Also of note - unusual bearish options activity today with 2k $97.50 strike (in-the-money) Feb. 15th put options traded for about $1M in premium.

Texas Instruments Inc. (NYSE: TXN) may have fared better with the Apple Inc.'s latest iPhones.

That's according to a new report by iFixit, which tears down new gadgets to see which companies are getting parts into devices.
