Carvana- Low Risk/High Reward EntryIt's a rare occasion when fundamentals and technicals align, and we might just have a compelling case here. Carvana stands out as one of the most heavily shorted stocks in the market. The company has been in the red for quite some time, and this quarter was no exception, with a loss of $1 per share, falling short of analysts' expectations on both EPS and revenue (they lost more than expected).
Despite these challenges, the company sees a shift in demand, with buyers increasingly returning to online car purchases. The Orange number 1 on chart marks the lowest price at the open on the gap-up day ( $66.48), a +26% jump from the previous night's close. The momentum didn't stop there; the price ran another 20% to hit a daily high of $76, before settling at $69.21.
Here's my strategy:
- Stop: Sell if the price drops below $66.48 (allow some leeway, given the volatility)
- Target: If it trades above $76, we could be looking at an elevator ride up to $150, mirroring its previous ride down from $150 to under $30 a share.
I'm eyeing a 1:2 quick trade risk/reward ratio, but that's a waste and the prospect of a potential short squeeze is tantalizing (yes, I said it!). Opportunities like this are few and far between.
Trade carefully,
