[music] Hello everybody, Drew Dosek here with Verified Investing. Today we've got some stocks to go over, break down some TA, potentially teach you a few things, and set you up for another trade in the future. So, let's jump into these charts. As I said, they will be on stocks, but this one is going to focus on a commodity that has been ripping up on the charts, and that is off of oil. But this stock we're looking at is on Valero. Now, let me back out to show you really how I've been drawing uh the progress and monitoring the progress technically on this chart. So, you can see here I've got two parallels. The first one's the blue parallel started all the way back in October of 2020 that contained price all the way up here until March of this year. And if you guys recall, right around the end of February, beginning of March, the United States invaded Venezuela and then we attacked Iran. And then obviously with the big Iran attack, there has been an explosion as far as increase in cost of oil. But Valero has staged itself to really benefit as their refineries can already accommodate the crude coming from Venezuela. Much that we already um as far as the United States is already um uh acquired. So VLOO has just continued to push up on the charts. Now what I did to gauge where this next level of resistance would be, I started a parallel and I drew it within the price action on the previous parallel after price had broken out, retraced and bounced much like I go through on trading the close. And guys, I go through that literally every single week because it happens on so many charts and it can provide great insight if you're shorting the stock or if you're longing the stock to hang in there because it's going to continue further. Now, if you're short and then price action bounces at this area, get the heck out of that position and then re-evaluate for another potential entry. Anyway, back to the analysis on this bounce that's occurring. So, we bounced through that parallel and then retraced and has since come back up. Even notice here on the 50% area, we paused, retraced, broke out, retraced again, and then bounced. Much like I described, guys, these happen over and over again, illustrating we were going higher. Now, why has price put on the brakes right here over the last four trading days? Well, it's because of this inclining parallel channel. Now, it didn't even get to $400. One could argue, hey, Drew, it's it's stalling out there because of the $400 whole round number. You could be right, but price didn't pierce that area mainly because it couldn't get there because of this resistance. And since we're seeing price come back down now, uh, a positive for price to come come down further on VLOO is if we put a daily close lower than this low pivot that occurred on September 9th, which is at $37,959. We have a daily close underneath that level, that increases probabilities vo to come down to the next level right around $350 as the next key level of near-term support. But look at the RSI, guys. near overbought just coming down under 70 right now under 68. This too by the way the RSI is the relative strength indicators located at the bottom of the screen that you see when I flip to the weekly look at we're at 75.76. Flip over to the monthly we're at 86.49 49 both monthly and weekly still remaining overbought near-term still implying that we do need to see further downside on the chart of via low that should uh correspond sooner rather than later on that chart. Next up on the opposite end of the spectrum we've got roadblocks looking like it is about to break out of its chart. You can see here RBLX on the daily time frame has been contained within this declining parallel channel for the majority of this year. today's price action gapping up over this upper range of the parallel channel and doing a continuation push. Very nice push. Now, tomorrow for the bulls, you want to see price get above today's candle and close. That allows any sort of pullback as a buying opportunity as this uh upper range of the parallel channel flips from resistance into support to help price continue with this breakout up to the next key resistance of 6142. There will be resistance here at these pivot tops as well. Right around $58. So this 58 to $61.50 is the next key resistance zone. One that could pull price back and allow a buying opportunity for anyone else that has missed this near-term move on Roblox. Next up into Meta. Meta also trying to get a potential near-term breakout underway. Now let's rewind the clock to see and understand where we're at on this chart. We had Meta mainly contained in this inclining parallel since December of 2023. We've had price break this range in March of this year and really tried to get back in, got rejected, tried to get back in, got rejected. Now we're making the third attempt to try to get back in and we are met with a lot of resistance derived from this declining trend line. You see here on the chart back from September 18th connected over to major pivot here, the next major pivot uh back on July 15th. And you can see price over the last three days has moved up into that line and gotten rejected. Moved up into that line, gotten rejected. Today so far has some staying power. Now for the bulls, you want to see price close above $663. If it can do that, then we would be putting in a daily close above this candle with the opportunity to continue higher tomorrow and secure this near-term breakout. If we're able to do that, look at what can occur. Because you see here the last three trading days we didn't secure and confirm into the parallel. We had one day in then the next two were outside to the bottom. If we have uh two consecutive pushes higher and inside the parallel and above this declining trend line any pullbacks will be uh caught by this cradle of support like an X marks the spot right here at $658.75. So, you want to see if you're bull on Meta, get a couple more days put together, pushing higher, which could create a fantastic buying opportunity in the near term. Lastly, guys, we got Apple moving up on the chart while most of tech has been under pressure today. Now, Apple's not up much. It's up 68%, but what it's showing is relative strength moving up on the chart. Now, we clearly have a daily topping tail here on July 29th. The high of that topping tail, $34,4457. looks like it's going to be the destination in the near term for Apple. As long as the relative strength remains in this stock, looks like we're going to have a meet for a serious level of contention with the previous all-time highs. All right, guys.
