TSLA, PLTR and SCMI Forecast – Major Stocks Looking for Momentum at Friday Open

view original post

PLTR Technical Analysis

Palantir looks like it’s going to open somewhat flat, but it was trying to recover during the trading session on Thursday. So, it does make a certain amount of sense that some momentum might enter the market here. If we can break above the crucial $190 level, Palantir has a real shot at taking off to the upside and perhaps going to the $200 level. A pullback from here could open up the possibility of a test of the 50-day EMA, but as things stand right now, I don’t think any pullback even goes that far. This is a very bullish looking chart.

SMCI Technical Analysis

Super Micro Computer finds itself slightly positive in pre-market trading, but we have just filled a gap. So, it’ll be interesting to see if we can find the momentum. I think you will have to either wait for a move above $65 or see some type of pullback that at least gets people interested. Right now, you’re buying right into what could end up being a brick wall. It has been a little extended over the last couple of weeks, so that also adds more potential downward pressure.

And with that in mind, I think you have to look at this through the prism of a market that is a little stretched and you might want to be cautious here. When you look at the longer term chart, you can see just how important the $65 region is. I have to wait and see if it can take off, but I think a little bit of momentum building is probably still necessary.
