IONQ versus Rigetti - Which is a Better Quantum Computing Stock To Invest?
🌟🌟🌟Quantum Computing is very much the buzz words these days. What is Quantum Computing and how does Quantum Computing work with AI? What is Quantum Computing? Quantum Computing is a revolutionary field of computing that leverages the principles of quantum mechanics to process information in ways that classical computers cannot. Unlike traditional computers that use bits (which can be either 0 or 1), Quantum Computing use qubits which can exist in multiple states simultaneously due to a phenomenon called superposition. Additionally qubits can be entangled, meaning the state of one qubit is directly related to the state of another, even if they are separated by vast distances. These properties allow quantum computers to perform complex calculations at speeds exponenti

He believes if an investor has a strong conviction about an opportunity, “put all your eggs in one basket and watch the basket very carefully” is not a

1-Year Volatility Box + High RVOL Entry: A Rule-Bending Setup
If I can find a 1 year sideway consolidation box chart like this, I will bend my rules and take the idea on high RVOL entry at M15, ignoring the market context. Look at $Lemonade, Inc.(LMND)$ 31st October 2024 post earnings release high RVOL entry below 60% LoD. It is incredible accumulation of shares if price bounce within 3 x ATR% of its volatility for a whole year. Overshoots are less than 4xATR% from 50-MA. LMND 1 year box range is extremely tight, considering its high ADR% and high short float %.I wrote about stocks like this during my 2021 USIC and even shared the scan for such setup (u need to layer 2 separate finviz screen) There is a few common traits,1) they have 30% short float or more2) their ADR% exceeds 5%3) they are trading at low f
Extended QQQ Rally Nears Historical Limits—Is a Pullback Ahead?
This is a plot of $Invesco QQQ(QQQ)$ and its breadth NDFI ( QQQ % Stocks above 50-MA or 10-Week MA) since 2022. QQQ is the strongest cap/equal-weight market index currently. QQQ resilience actually brings its NDFI breadth to the 9th session exceeding 10 x ATR% multiple from 50-MA. Have a look at the last 4 occurrences since 2022. This kind of extension could last up to 16 sessions, but historically, it always pulls back eventually.In swing trading, it’s crucial to assess whether we have potential tailwind pushing us forward or a headwind pushing against us in the near term.ImageFor whom haven't open CBA can know more from below:🏦 Open a CBA today and enjoy privileges of up to SGD 20,000 in trading limit with 0 commission.

In technical analysis, support and resistance levels are like invisible lines in the sand where prices tend to pause or turn around. They're specific price points where buyers or sellers have historically stepped in with enough force to halt the current price movement and potentially reverse its direction.Think of Support Levels as a strong floor for the price. When the price falls to this level, there's usually enough buying interest to stop it from going lower.Conversely, Resistance Levels act like a tough ceiling. When the price climbs to this level, there's typically enough selling pressure to prevent it from rising further.Using These Levels to Make Smarter TradesLet’s use the four hours chart for the S&P 500 $S&P 500(.SPX)$ , the hig
