Pattern names always make me laugh. I had a conversation with a friend that asked why I bought a stock that did well last week.
A part of me wanted to give an interesting answer because that's really what he was looking for. People always want to be sold on a fascinating idea and outwit everyone else.
I explained that I didn't really know the fundamentals of the company. I instead pay attention to two main things:
How the market buys or sells a stock (any asset) in over what period of time, and how the asset reacts to the buying and selling. He didn't understand, so I just said there was a tight ascending triangle above a symmetrical rectangle. He thought I was trolling.
Patterns are just an expression of market behavior.
Back to the eyeball pattern (not a real pattern name fyi)... Pay attention to symmetry - symmetry in markets (in price and time) increases the probabilities.
Execution: - Wait for a daily breakout above the blue or find an aggressive position in anticipation of the breakout.
Entry: Long the September 18 140 and 145 calls. Pepsico is a low vol stock so options are a good way to leverage a good set-up for a good profit.
Exit: Sell the 145 call if/when price hits 144.20 before September 18. Hold the 140s until expiration or a sell signal appears on the daily after the stock hits 144/145.
