Thank you. ***Magnificent Seven TrackerThis analysis is AI-Generated from the videoAnalysis:* Leaders* GOOG - Still the leader of the market and the Magnificent Seven for the longest time, but getting concerned ahead of earnings on Feb 4 (Wednesday). Has been leading strongly throughout 2025 to now. Potential for double top formation.* AMZN - Stronger than most Mag 7, trending right, but in no man’s land within a base that will keep it range-bound. Didn’t like pullback to 50 SMA/150 after January breakout; wanted more strength for handle build. Not on radar until breakout; wait for earnings—if breaks out above 247-250 ish during earnings, becomes a buy candidate.* NVDA - Semis doing well; good consolidation area (not quite inverse head/shoulders). Has relative strength vs. market, making higher lows as market drops. Hopeful to break out above 193, retest 211, and lead market/queues higher. Buyer above 194 on open, but prefer to wait for breakout, retest, and hold in current market.* Laggards* MSFT - Not a personal buy due to being under all MAs, but high volume support in the area (third highest volume candle in years, back to 2020/2022). Inside day with volume dry-up; could be mean reversion if breaks above 440, offering good risk/reward with defined low for stop. For investors who love it, set tight risk here and cut losses quick if it goes lower—better returns elsewhere.* TSLA - Lagging as always, but positive signs: rejected 50/21/10 MAs, held above the 5 for mean reversion. Possible double bottom; smaller base forming. Watching Monday for open above the range to add to small starter position (2% allocation on inside day with post-earnings volume). Stayed afloat while market dropped.* META - Good overall, above all moving averages (daily and weekly), with bullish weekly candle and close above base. But extended, heading into obvious resistance. Too early to enter; wait for chart development as MAs catch up and it builds a base (e.g., small base above the 5 or on the 10 then to 5). Momentum in favor price-action wise; on watch as one of the leaders now for the Mag 7 going forward.* AAPL - In a special place for buy/sell decisions amid weak market but selective rotation to large caps. Found support on the 150 SMA, broke above, chopped around, and built a pretty big base. On weekly, base is drawing out with three candles; would like it tighter before breaking above 262 (rejected 4 times). Good risk/reward from current levels, but significant volatility expected this coming week.What’s Actionable For You:* META* Wait for MAs to catch up and base to build out (e.g., small base above the 5-day MA or building on the 10 then moving to 5). If it handles resistance well and momentum holds (above all MAs), enter on confirmation of base completion for potential upside. On watch only for now—no immediate entry due to extension.* 200 SMA - 681.41* MSFT* If breaks above 440 on the inside day, enter with stop at defined low for risk/reward. Keep very tight risk; cut losses quick if drops below support. Not a buy under MAs—only for long-term investors who must own it, but allocate elsewhere for better returns.* NVDA* Buy above 194 on open if stays in consolidation area, but ideally wait for breakout above 193, retest/hold 211 area. Stop below recent lows. Position for potential leadership if semis continue strong—add on confirmation of higher lows persisting.* 200 SMA -167.76* AAPL * Buy on open above 262 once base tightens and 50 MA catches up (after 4 rejections). Stop below base support/150 SMA. Good risk/reward now, but be cautious with buys amid volatility this week—watch for tighter weekly base before entry.* 200 SMA - 236.65* GOOG* Wait until after earnings on Feb 4. Don’t buy pre-earnings. If breaks out on earnings, options: (1) Buy that day with stop below breakout level, or (2) Wait for smaller base to build post-earnings then enter. Monitor for double top avoidance—play only on confirmed strength.* 200 SMA -235.33* AMZN* Wait for earnings; if breaks out above 247-250 during/post-earnings, enter as candidate. Stop below base low/50 SMA. Avoid until out of no man’s land—no allocation now due to lack of strength in prior breakout attempt.* 200 SMA - 221.78* TSLA* Watch Monday: If opens above current smaller base range, add to position (from small 2% starter on inside day post-earnings volume). Target double bottom confirmation for break higher. Stop below recent lows/5-day MA. Capitalize on relative strength vs. down market, but keep sizing small given lagging nature.* 200 SMA - 377.22Charts Of Buyable Stocks: This is a public episode.
