Yep exactly. I scalped MSFT options yesterday on weeklies on that break in trend line but didn't take it long. If I was going long I would be confirming a back test of the 248.50 level which should be new support. Options at that entry level would be my personal target entry.irish pete ag06 said:Cool.

They say trade what's in front of you. I've been locked in on small caps too much, so trying to dip my toe into looking for call or put options of large and mega caps trading in a channel.
Looking at microsoft... please any of you elders scrolls please point out something to me that's dumb.
On the daily MSFT has tested the blue (34/50) ribbon and rebounded each time since COVID crash.
I like those long wicks at the bottom of the daily touching the 34/50 too.
On the weekly I MSFT has rebounded each time it's dipped into the green ribbon (8/13). I've drawn channel lines to help pick a strike.
Gonna attempt to enter into the $270 calls for JUN in the morning for 1.25. Looking for a triple, stop loss set at .75.
Looks like a nice set up from a phone anyway. Maybe a helpful tip.
Draw a decending trend line on the daily from the exact price at top of top candle down to the top of lowest candle before today and extend it. Broke that trend line today. But Confirm it breaks the trend line back up before entry and not a false breakout. I also then do the same but an hourly chart and down to 10 min chart to confirm. You may get a move down tomorrow below todays close then reclaim it for entry.
Also give the ATR a check and see what it reclaimed after today's close. .
Daily
Hours and 10 min line added... this is on the 10 min chart.
Also touched and rose back up above -1 ATR today on the daily
Unless of course it just takes off.
Here is my MSFT chart intraday yesterday and I added my entry and exit on options expiring today. Probably left some on the table but exited into momentum before close when didn't continue to my next resistance level. My stop or exit was breaking that trend line to the downside. Also an image of the late day call flow expiring today. Someone thinks this goes up today.
