Shallow Pullback Shows Strength — But Entry Still Needs Confluen
NASDAQ:AVGO The key lesson in this chart is not simply that a shallow pullback after the first wave automatically creates a buy setup. More precisely, a shallow pullback after the first wave only suggests strength. It does not automatically mean the entry is ideal. What matters more is whether the next pullback can develop into a cleaner 2nd wave setup. Here is how I would break it down: First, the first wave needs to be clean. A strong first wave should show continuity, not just a single emotional 15–20% expansion candle, and it should not look like the final stage of a parabolic move. If the first wave is too vertical and too aggressive, a later pullback to the 10MA may not be a high-quality entry. It could simply be post-extension volatility. Second, the pullback needs to return to an area with confluence. Touching the 10MA alone is not enough. The better setup appears when the pullback reaches a zone where several factors overlap: rising 10MA prior high / breakout zone short base top horizontal support The strongest area is usually where 10MA and support overlap. Third, the pullback itself should be healthy. I would prefer to see a slow pullback, declining volume, smaller red candles, and controlled selling — not a heavy red candle that slices through support. Fourth, once price reaches the zone, there should be evidence of support or reclaim. Acceptable signals may include: a long lower wick with a strong close reclaim of support reclaim of the prior day’s high close back above the 10MA follow-through on the next day If price simply touches support but closes weak near the lower half of the range, that is usually not enough. Finally, the stop must be reasonable. Even if the setup is structurally valid, if the entry is too far from invalidation, the R:R may no longer be attractive. In that case, it may be better to wait for a second chance — or simply let it go. So the core lesson is: strength tendency is not the same as a good entry. A higher-quality aggressive entry usually appears during the 2nd wave pullback, when price returns in an orderly way to support + rising 10MA, then shows support / reclaim. Educational example only, not financial advice.

AVGO Has Doubled Over 12 Months, But What Does Its Chart Say?
Broadcom NASDAQ:AVGO has risen more than 100% over the past 12 months, and the chip designer has beaten the S&P 500 SP:SPX in pretty much every time period from one month to five years. Let's see what its technical and fundamental analysis can show us. Broadcom's Fundamental Analysis Beyond designing high-quality chips, AVGO is also writing software and doing other interesting things as well. The firm reported Q1 results in early March, posting $2.05 in adjusted earnings per share on $19.31 billion of revenue. Both numbers beat the Street's estimates, with sales seeing 29.4% year-over-year growth. Management also issued Q2 sales guidance that easily bested the consensus view, although Broadcom won't report actual Q2 results until early June. Let's go to the chart now, shall we? Broadcom's Technical Analysis Here's AVGO's chart running from mid-November through Wednesday's close (April 15): Readers will first see that Broadcom has formed what's called a "rectangle" or "flat-base" pattern that's stretched over most of 2026 to date, as marked by the orange-shaded rectangle at the chart's right. However, the stock has now broken out of that smallish pattern and retaken its 50-day Simple Moving Average (or "SMA," denoted with a blue line). It's also taken back its 200-day SMA (the red line) and 21-day Exponential Moving Average (or "EMA," marked with a green line). All of that often helps get both portfolio managers and swing traders on the long side of a trade. Meanwhile, AVGO is now developing a cup pattern, as denoted by the cup-like curving black line in the chart's center and right. This might turn into a cup with handle, but either cup pattern (with or without a handle) is considered bullish. The only difference is in where to place the apparent pivot. The potential pivot for a cup pattern without a handle is the cup's left-side apex -- around $414 in the above chart. However, the pivot will slide over to the cup's right side if the pattern adds a handle. Some traders and investors are likely waiting to see if a handle develops. If it does, they might try to initiate some kind of starter position or seek an additional stake on what would be an implied temporary state of weakness. Moving on to Broadcom's other technical indicators above, the stock's Relative Strength Index (the gray line at the chart's top) has just crossed into technically overbought territory. That doesn't mean the addition of a handle to the cup pattern is imminent, but it's certainly possible. In the meantime, the stock's daily Moving Average Convergence Divergence indicator (or "MACD," marked with blue bars and black and gold lines at the chart's bottom) is looking much better than it had been earlier. The histogram of the 9-day EMA (the blue bars) has moved well into positive territory, which is a short-term bullish signal. The 12-day EMA (the black line) and 26-day EMA (the gold line) have also moved above the zero-bound, with the black line riding above the gold one. This has been shown to be a reliable medium-term bullish indicator. An Options Option Some options traders who are bullish on AVGO are likely using what's called a "bull-put spread." That's where you sell one put and buy another with a lower strike price, but where both expire on the same day. Here's an example: -- Short one AVGO June 19 put with a $330 strike price (i.e., near the stock's 200-day SMA). This would bring in about $11 at recent prices. -- Long one AVGO June 19 $310 put at a cost of roughly $7. Net Credit: $4. Traders using this strategy don't risk cash buying Broadcom equity at current market prices, but instead receive a $4 net credit. Should the stock never trade down to $330, both options would expire worthless on June 19 and the trader would simply pocket the $4 net credit (the maximum theoretical gain). And should the shares trade below $330 at expiration but not down to $310, the trader would end up long 100 AVGO shares of AVGO at a $326 net basis. However, should the shares trade below $310 at expiration, the trader would purchase the stock at a $326 net basis and re-sell the shares at $310, for a $16 maximum theoretical loss.

Broadcom bounce from $307 support hints at short‑term upside:
Current Price: 314.55 (Analysis was generated on Monday Morning) Direction: LONG Confidence level: 62%(Professional traders highlight valuation reset and strong 64% revenue growth outlook while the stock already bounced from $289 to $307. X sentiment is bullish with no bearish tweets. However, limited specific trader price levels reduces confidence slightly.) Targets Target 1: 330 Target 2: 345 Stop Levels Stop 1: 307 Stop 2: 289 Key Insights: Here’s what’s driving the bullish lean. Several professional traders highlighted that AI stocks—including Broadcom—have already corrected roughly 12–24% from their highs while earnings expectations continue climbing. In other words, valuations compressed while the growth story stayed intact. That’s often the setup where institutions quietly start accumulating again. Another key point many traders emphasized is Broadcom’s projected revenue growth. Forecasts around ~64% sales growth this year came up repeatedly in the analysis. That’s huge for a mega‑cap semiconductor company. When a company delivers that kind of growth while the stock pulls back, traders often treat the dip as an opportunity rather than a structural breakdown. Social sentiment adds to that picture. X activity around Broadcom is modest but clearly skewed bullish, with roughly 10 bullish vs 0 bearish trading tweets in the dataset. That tells me the short‑term crowd is leaning toward buying dips rather than fading rallies. Recent Performance: Broadcom recently dipped toward the $289 area, which several traders referenced as a key pullback zone, before bouncing sharply toward $307 and continuing higher. That rebound matters because it signals buyers stepping in after the correction. Now the stock sits around $314.55, above that bounce level and trying to regain upward momentum. The price structure right now looks like a recovery leg after a pullback rather than a breakdown. If the stock continues holding above the $307 region this week, momentum traders will likely push for another move higher. Expert Analysis: Multiple professional traders pointed out two price zones that stood out in the discussion: $289 as a deeper pullback support and $307 as the rebound level where buyers stepped back in. I’m using those as the core risk levels for this trade. From a positioning standpoint, this is essentially a post‑correction continuation setup. The traders I tracked are leaning into the idea that the AI sector reset valuations but didn’t damage earnings growth. That’s the type of environment where strong names like Broadcom often resume the trend after a consolidation phase. What’s interesting is that the bullish narrative isn’t purely hype-driven. The growth projections and ASIC demand tied to AI infrastructure are real drivers. The main caution traders raised is supply‑chain exposure—especially reliance on TSMC manufacturing—but that’s more of a longer‑term risk than a weekly trading factor. News Impact: Recent commentary around AI infrastructure spending and semiconductor demand continues to support Broadcom’s narrative. While some macro risks—like semiconductor supply constraints or resource shortages—exist, they haven’t disrupted the near‑term growth outlook. Meanwhile, strong expectations for AI chip demand keep large-cap semiconductor names in focus. That broader AI infrastructure theme tends to lift companies like Broadcom whenever the sector sentiment improves. Trading Recommendation: Putting it all together, I’m taking a LONG position on Broadcom for this week. The rebound from the $289 → $307 zone shows buyers defending the dip, and the growth narrative around AI semiconductors still has strong backing from professional traders. My approach would be straightforward: accumulate above $310–$315 with risk defined at the $307 support. If momentum builds, the first push toward $330 is realistic this week, and a stronger AI-sector rally could stretch the move toward $345. If the stock loses $307, the bullish setup weakens quickly—that’s why the deeper fail‑safe stop sits near $289, the level traders previously highlighted as the major pullback low.
