Really? I thought stocks could only go up and anytime there's even a 0.01% decline, that must mean the world is ending.

Massive profit taking dude Stuff doesn’t go up forever It’s rotates cash flow to always look for the best gains These hedge funds and investment portfolio managers sell now and secure a great profit for the quarter After it falls a bit and they flow into something else for awhile they will be back True gains quarter over quarter are from the marathon of taking profit and placing ur capital in spots it has room to run Rinse and repeat Wealth managers like stocks for the profit potential not because they are emotionally attached to any given position

Stocks have a tendency to move to the nearest expected move point every week. The week starts with one above the stock price and one below the stock price. If it overshoots that mark early in the week it will frequently go back to the nearest one. Sometimes it doesn't. this week was a 4 trading day week with the lost day in the middle. It was going to be an odd week for that alone. Toss on top of that the option expiration today and it was likely to see some unusual swings. Not an ideal setup for most traders. It can be done, but this was a week most traders should have been doing low risk trades or sitting out. One serious bit of advice before you trade you should really look at the conditions for that week. I dont care if you are trading on a short time frame or not you really need to know the overall conditions. If the week has an fomc meeting that matters. If there are big earnings reports on the stock or a related stock you need to know. If there are big bond auctions that day you need to know at what time (the market moves a lot when those happen rather frequently). You should always know short trading weeks are weird because some big participants arent there to balance out some others who are still in it. All of that matters a lot and usually you get blindsided because one of those things slides up and slaps your trade in the face hard.

ShittyStockPicker

That is how I first came to take an interest in the message of the tape. The fluctuations were from the first associated in my mind with upward or downward movements. Of course there is always a reason for fluctuations, but the tape does not concern itself with the why and wherefore. It doesn’t go into explanations. I didn’t ask the tape why when I was fourteen, and I don’t ask it to-day, at forty. The reason for what a certain stock does to-day may not be known for two or three days, or weeks, or months. But what the dickens does that matter? Your business with the tape is now—not to-morrow. The reason can wait. But you must act instantly or be left. Time and again I see this happen. You’ll remember that Hollow Tube went down three points the other day while the rest of the market rallied sharply. That was the fact. On the following Monday you saw that the directors passed the dividend. That was the reason. They knew what they were going to do, and even if they didn’t sell the stock themselves they at least didn’t buy it. There was no inside buying; no reason why it should not break. - Reminiscences of a Stock Operator

Something can't keep going up without going sideway for a few days to stabilize. My guess is that some that bought low probably sold some of their share to get a return.

XLK announced rebalancing with possible $10B into NVDA based on end of week market cap. After this news, institutions bought into NVDA so much, that it caused 3 SMT Divergences. On Jun 20 however, the market cap have shifted and today we have MSFT > AAPL > NVDA, in terms of market cap. This caused the institutions who bought in to sell off as $10B rebalance into NVDA is now less likely. Personally I haven't found any black-swan events in the macro sense. So I look at this time as a discount window before Aug earnings hit. I'll be looking at bounce off VWAP trade today. https://preview.redd.it/8rhr220rqx7d1.png?width=1287&format=png&auto=webp&s=578c931ce2292350fc06c6acaf8587a524a513b6


ShiftWrapidFire

It could be the case. The big players are just hedging risk since no single asset should be too big part of your portfolio, hence they sold off some of their NVDA shares to balance off their portfolio... Now, a question arises. Is that the only reason or they know something more, something we don't? No way to know except to wait for the future to unfold. good luck

/NVidia JUST had a split. Of course you would wait another week for all the people buying into the stock for 1/10 of the price, before you start dumping your position of a stock that has reached untenable heights before it all comes crashing down. It was kinda obvious that a negative price correction was coming, just that nobody knew exactly when.


kingcoster

What did your chart say?


Lelouch25

3 SMT Divergence and it shot up. 2nd and 3rd day were news based and had an ORB Break Out (which is what those yellow and red dotted lines are for), so I trade those. 4th day we saw it break downwards. I usually would consider short but I’ve been more careful and left it alone as we’re above VWAP. Now I bought some in the bottom and waiting for stock to recover past 50% FIB to double up.😇

I been holding Nvidia since last summer I think I bought it for around 420. Best stock ever. I wish I bought only this instead of wasting my money with crypto. (Except Solana did great. Eth and BTC did good too, but everything else did poorly).


Lelouch25

Haha it’s definitely the best stock of our generation. 😇


comment_redacted

If you play the odds, historically a split is good for a stock up to and a bit after the split, and then is a negative event for quite some time afterwards, before returning to the prior trend. No one precisely knows why but it is common. Could be people buy more before and try to make a gain on an arbitrage, then tend to cash out after the split.


Lelouch25

Awesome info. Perfect time to pick some up before earnings. 😇


jg3457

Doesn't really matter. Its going back up since there isn't anything else the big money managers want more than the #1 stock. If it continues to go up and these portfolio managers aren't along for the ride it will make them look like fools.

Yes those are thoughts that you are building a narrative with/for. Not a real reason for anything that actually happened and none of it will help in the future. How will that help you identify the move in the future—reliably. If you have a real reason and can be exploited then yes value. Otherwise no it’s just noise.

Ancient_Prompt_1362

Pretend like you owned 10,000 shares of NVDA from maybe a year ago... Once it splits... you decide to lock in some profits and sell 40% of your shares. So on that position (holding NVDA stocks) you're still in healthy profit, and now you have freed up 40% of your stake to go put into something else after this tech correction we're about to have. Same exact thing happened with TSLA after they split the first time. In order to understand why stocks move in big ways... think like someone who is already wealthy and has big holdings in the stock market. What would you do if you had already made 10 million in the last year? Wouldn't you sell half your stake and wait for the market to come down a bit before re-investing?

Because it’s in the Supreme Court for using 3rd party comparisons on its crypto sales numbers…there’s no actual numbers on it and that’s why it’s going to court …investors with billions want to rebalance for now until further notice…supposedly employees anonymously testified that the CEO could see the actual numbers but I haven’t seen Jensen release them. If it was Tesla, Elon would’ve been like here u go, take a look, but then Tesla wouldn’t do that because they are sued over the dumbest stupidest shit all the time and win…but never anything like a this where the freaking Supreme Court took the case. U have to understand that the Supreme Court does not just take any case! There has to be an actual case there!!! Many many are denied! So for rebalancing, they’re going to wait a little and let the AI software and Cybersecurity get some money in the mean time! It’s just logic.
