MA

AMX_revue

as a patriots fan I can see something being set on fire somewhere in MA tonight

Portfoliana

For screening I don't use LLMs directly though. I have a watchlist on [stockalert.pro](https://stockalert.pro) that runs daily AI analysis on my tickers - it scores them on technicals, fundamentals, and risk, and surfaces the top oppertunities each morning. The key difference to the DD slop is that it's transparent about the scoring (RSI, MA positioning, forward P/E etc.) so you can actually verify the reasoning instead of trusting a wall of AI-generated text. Biggest takeaway: AI is great for processing large amounts of data fast. It's terrible at predicting where a stock goes next. Use it for the former, not the latter.

RunsaberSR

Fuck it. Indicator name: \[blackcat\] L2 KDJ with Whale Pump Detector \-on Trading View. (pretty sure it's free) https://preview.redd.it/6a76xdwh37ig1.png?width=1552&format=png&auto=webp&s=5170965cd283f1286bcbdb7e9b68957c8853c3d7 There's other things to confirm after seeing them, but on the sub-chart you can see yellow bars. Pretty much volume filtered only to big boy orders. It gets more sensitive on lower timeframes, and can give some false positives, but for something to show up on the 4hr, it takes big money. The type of $ people who don't lose have. So, when I see these, I start scaling back into calls usually around lunch for the next pop-off. If I scroll back in time, same story...but the bars have been showing up more frequently. We'll prob touch 700 next, go back to 685-690, 702-705, 690-695, 705-708....etc. Before a dive back to wherever the 100MA on the daily has us. Rinse/repeat. This also works pretty well to find the daily bottom for scalps if using it on the 30min as well. But riskier. So yeah. Enjoy the free DD and God indicator. (and anyone else that sees this)

Tech looks shaky. Friday wasn’t enough. Eventually we’ll see -20% Nasdaq. Soon, not sure exactly when. QQQ is under the 100 MA on the daily chart for the 4th day in a row. Last time it was under that level for longer than 2 days was the liberation crash last year.

WinstonBuddyBro

That’s a good point about Friday, but all that buying pressure has to run out soon. It might not be next week. But the writing is on the wall for tech. Last week was a warm up for a bigger drop eventually. I’m starting a small position in SQQQ as soon as QQQ crosses back over the 100 MA to put my money where my mouth is. We’ll see. 🤷‍♂️

WinstonBuddyBro

I’m just a retard, but I’m bearish as all fuck for tech. Nasdaq will dump like it’s 2000. Even with Friday’s rally, QQQ is still under the 100 MA on the daily. The last time it went under that line for longer than 2 days was February into April of last year. That big liberation day crash. Friday was just a dead cat bounce for foolish buyers. Big red coming to shit all over everyone.

WinstonBuddyBro

Nasdaq feels bearish to me. 4 days in a row under the 100 MA on the daily chart. Friday’s rally didn’t even put it above that line. The last time QQQ spent more than 2 days under the 100 MA was that massive pullback from February into April last year. Also, higher highs and lower lows, AKA broadening top. Usually bearish. The dow continues to look bullish, as it’s not so tech heavy.

ryallen23

SPY might not be diverse and high quality enough to compensate for the AI bet doesn’t pay off. But infinite versions of a portfolio with stocks inside it totally would. Let’s make two up real quick with a goal of doing well without crash risk the next 5 years - 1) GS, WMT, AVGO, MA, GE 2) PM, UBER, HOOD, BK, CRWD

Public-Promotion-744

SPY bounced on the 100MA on the daily. if it had to go down it had to do it today, no way we going back on monday, not after a 1,92% bounce

GunsouBono

Msft is definitely on my list. Every time it's bounced off the 50 month MA since 2012, it's set a new ATH. That's around 370. Looking at some August 400C's. BULL is one that I can see making a significant move sometime in the next 6-9 months. I think they're in oversold territory with a large short volume. Growing user base. Earnings in like 2 weeks where they should post a second straight quarter of profit. 3B cap feels extremely low for them. RKLB of course is on everyone's top 10. I think if SpaceX hits the market at 1.5T, the 35B cap for RKLB will look very attractive. My wildcard is SMR. This administration seems to be fast tracking nuclear energy. SMR is a couple pieces of good news from going vertical. All that said. If I were any good at this, I wouldn't have to work my day job.

kool_mandate

Mostly blue chips . My biggest positions are MA and V. I was just curious because you indicated you were already down 25%<

No-Row-9782

Weekly 200 MA and monthly 50 MA, great price to buy IMO.

Soapbox503

$50 SOXL is both a round number and the 50 day MA test. Bounced off of it 3x today. Net short. Looking for that level to break.

Kabrosif

I did some market analsex on SPY just now and if you look the 50 day MA it has broken key support 3 times in the last couple months. The 200 day MA is cruising up towards SPY support line like it’s a homing missile with heat seeking capabilities.

theineffablebob

200MA is like 5% more from here

Ok-Background-7897

I took one philosophy class in undergrad and was able to take 3 grad level seminars as part of a humanities MA and they absolutely are why I am successful in tech with a fuckin’ history degree.

BallinLikeimKD

Same, I was buying heavy under $20k and sold almost all of it above $110k. Any time you can buy at or below the 200W MA usually tends to work out well for you within the next few years.

Logical_Idiot_9433

I would rather do March or April calls Feb is too early. Stock is at 200MA. Will take some time to recover.

TranslatorRoyal1016

if you're gonna use TA, at least read it. it broke every MA downward, macd is bearish and sell volume is high. you're betting on a 50ma bounce on a stock that's been beaten to a pulp for the past 4 months. what entry point do you see??

No-Significance-8934

MA30 continues to say fuck you.

sami_regard

By the way. Looks like we will have to touch 200 days MA this month.

AnywhereSalty7466

6,726 is SPY 125MA, breaks that anymore than a couple of percent and we can see a huge correction. Waiting for bounce off that.

plznodownvotes

META bounces off 50MA. Hope that’s a strong support.

ai___________

NVDA MA200 is at 169.23, if we breaks that we’re fucked

rioferdy838

Crazy how TSLA, NVDA, AMZN & META all at the 200 MA right now. MSFT obviously below it. Might see a bounce from here.

rioferdy838

Some of the Mag 7 like MSFT, META, NVDA, AMZN are now at or have breached the 200 MA. Will be interesting to see if we bounce from here. Looks likely.

HerezahTip

It’s an open carry state. They aren’t banning guns. All I see they have in their legislative branch is an assault weapon *proposal* that is similar to MA.

Imaginary-Writer-125

IMO it does, this happened twice in 2025 for MU and SNDK and they both dump to 50MA in a week

Imaginary-Writer-125

Feb just started…. Also memory stocks are still close to 100% above 50MA Always dump when that happens

Darcy98x

They are undervalued and MA is a small piece of their portfolio. They are moving hard into ICHRA (which is where the market is moving now) and their Medicaid will recover after the midterms.

EpicWhaleSquad

Even with the dips, we are still WAY above the 200 MA. Still extended

SuspiciousSpyderman

Just opened a position in VISA. Pe ratio is at 31 which is low for the company. On the daily, the 20MA is coming down to meet support at 320, me thinks breakout soonish

TomatoSpecialist6879

Based on the price range, I'm assuming you're using the 50D/200D MA and RSI overbought signals as indicator huh. All it takes is GOOG to stress memory shortage holding everyone back to push memory sector up again though, good luck and be careful there

MagnesiumKitten

people did know trouble was coming with PayPal though with the EPS and other technical stuff maybe Jan 25th to Feb 2nd so for 8 days it was getting sold I'm not sure if the slide was Dec 1st, and why that is the case maybe this **one** **PYPL Stock Down 27.5% YTD: Is it a Buying Opportunity or Time to Exit?** November 28,2025 PayPal's sharp YTD slide contrasts with its push into next-gen commerce, AI, crypto and fast-growing Venmo, raising big questions for investors. **two** **The Zacks Analyst Blog Highlights PayPal, Visa and Mastercard** by Zacks Equity Research Published on December 01,2025 PYPL slides 27.5% YTD as rivals V and MA gain, but new AI, ads and crypto tools fuel debate over whether PayPal's slump is a long-term opportunity. **three** **PayPal's Branded Checkout & OpEx Concern: Will Growth be Affected?** by Zacks Equity Research Published on December 04,2025 PYPL flags softer Q4 branded checkout growth and rising 2026 OpEx as it pushes investments.

Elon Stock Market Genius. Every tech stock that posts shit earnings or poor guidance dumps. ELONG MA LEGENDARY REGARD PEDO OUTCAST pumps on shit earnings AND poor guidance AND empty promises. LFG ELON.

Rich-Candidate-3648

Yeah they are showing up in shitty malls and places owned by Vornado so it looks like it's back but it's dead. Look at Steward Healthcare in MA. They got smoked in the same way. It's an old playbook but it's devastating.

crohns4cannabis

I’m butthurt on HOOD, PYPL, COIN and MA. Bought all those the same week

Kingdrip99

I own a small amount of PYPL but it feels way nicer buying MA/V rn. MA growing 18% vs PYPL 4%

plznodownvotes

META speed running filling the gap post earnings. Hope it holds the 200MA support.

Stocks_N_Bondage

The strong 6875 support and the 50 day MA meet here—if we don’t bounce on this, we’re cooked.

Chrelled

NXTT popping 15% but hugging under the 50MA usually means weak hands are dumping into strength - I'd wait for a clean break above with volume or it's just another pump and dump trap. Seen this pattern kill calls too many times. Patience pays here

isolated-cat

RDDT is a kill. seems kinda oversold on the 200 MA

plznodownvotes

Hope we don’t hit META’s 200MA, but it’s increasingly looking like it as it looks to fill the gap (no homo)

p3pp3rjack

Why do you think that MA and AZ will roll back rec?

Stocks_N_Bondage

Re: PLTR, might make it a strangle by eod. Kinda on the fence here, but it's below the 200 day MA for the first time since it was $7 with earnings decelerating.

Stocks_N_Bondage

Opened today: - Calls: ATI • BALL • NXPI • RMBS - Puts: MRK • PEP • PLTR • PYPL (Also holding a position in RMBS) Re: PLTR, might make it a strangle by eod. Kinda on the fence here, but it's below the 200 day MA for the first time since it was $7 with earnings decelerating. *Disclaimer: don't do what I do, but if you do, I mostly work with strikes around delta 25 ish*...

Pirashood

Thanks for clarifying, I think that’s a fair point. Though personally I don’t think it is much of a concern. I own both V and MA and worry about them less than almost any of my other positions

johnnyringo1985

But that makes the case **for V and MA** when I was responding to a comment about the massive threat to V and MA from EU-native alternatives… I think you missed the point.

treefarts

European pension finds holding V and MA is basically taking free money from foreigners as far as they're concerned. No reason not to do it.

johnnyringo1985

There are canaries in the coal mines for any European native alternative—European pension funds holding V and MA. Until the EU governments’ pension funds see a reason for divestiture, I won’t either.

Jazzlike-Ad-3545

FYI as someone who comes from the Payments industry: MA and V do *NOT* make the 2%+ with every txn. They make networking assessment fee which is like 0.1/0.2% rest ~2% is taken as interchange fee by Issuer (the bank) and some by Acquirer (merchant bank). There are other players such as processors that also take the cut. The actuals vary based on various factors.

StockSkys

I mean generally out of $100 transaction 2.75% is taken by the network and V/MA get $0.25 so your thesis is flawed

msaleem

Thank you for completely disregarding AXP. I’m going to continue to buy AXP over V and MA. 

deadfishlog

Shorting MA has been great

dvdmovie1

"Apple/Google wallets are only going to gain more control and push competition" Whose networks do these services use? "Stablecoins or tokenized settlement" Both companies have talked about stablecoins and tokenization at length. "Regulation is probably coming at some point." Quite possibly but I've read that for over a decade now. I do think that Visa has gotten to the point where they can't grow by acquisition anymore (see: Plaid denied) but being forced to develop more internally doesn't stop it. I am not of the belief that Mastercard and Visa are "untouchable" and I think few people are. However, I've been on here for 10+ years now and throughout that entire time I've seen people be very, very confidently bearish and the same/similar reasoning is used time and time again. I think someone has made a case for every lousy fintech name somehow disrupting V/MA at one point or another and yet the FINX etf down 46% over the last 5 years.

Trash_Panda_Trading

Isn’t the MA mid 70s anyways? Heard some comments on CNBC midday Friday about this.

jlw993

Silver still above weekly 10 MA after falling 31% It was so overbought

jordanpeterson9

I’m only short term bearish. A mean reversion to test MA will be healthy.

ThermalChaser

Goodm that makes it purely technical based. Just buy anytime it's below the 200 week MA.

LHeureux

Nah you're right, it's just that it's uncomfortable buying a stock that's in such a downtrend under the 200 MA

ClydeFrogsDrugDealer

Just below 200MA on the weekly

Kusanagi8811

MA new wsb theme song just dropped

BackOfficeBeefcake

30% when you are 5 deviations from the 200 MA is not an extreme event. Better buckle up.

SuspiciousSpyderman

MA (mastercard) finishing above monthly 20 MA is bullish. PE ratio of 32 is on the lower end historically for this stock as well. I'm looking for MA to test the 20 and 50 weekly MA at around 558 next week

ExplanationNormal339

The 20% pullback is brutal but you're right about it hitting some technical support around these levels. Problem is biotech names like this can knife through support when institutions start dumping, so I'd wait for actual buying pressure before calling it a bounce. [$IDAI](https://aimytrade.io/ticker/IDAI?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=comment&utm_campaign=smallstreetbets) shows the daily chart is still pretty ugly below the 50MA.

ultrasharpie

ok fine... ill do it myself. its at the 50 week MA and holding. so... where is it going to go? DOWN? NO. UP. WHy, because they OWN YOU. PLTR is basically like contractor taking money from your pockets and using it to steal more things from you that you dont even know about. how could it ever lose. You need to bet on BIG BROTHER. ALso... if im wrong... we going down like to 90 where the 100 week moving average is, and the volume support is. SO unless they really fuck it up, i think we get a great rebound straight to 160 .

scroto_gaggins

For anyone in payments stocks (TOST, XYZ, FISV, FOUR, PYPL), what do you think it would take to change the sentiment at this point? Feels like it’s been super low since summer of last year. MA just had solid earnings which makes me slightly optimistic

Several_Cry2501

As. Canadian investor with 70% of my portfolio invested in USD-exposed stocks, and with MSFT, V and MA all being in my top five holdings, all I can say is January 2026 has really sucked. Lol

NecessaryEmployer488

Economy is going great. GDPNow shows over 5% growth with Bluechip show 3%. Home sales have been strong the last couple of months. M1 money has increased the rate of growth over the last month. I look at PE in terms of growth, since PE alone does not tell the story. Are we overbought yes, but with the current growth the price can grind upward. We are close to the 200-day and 50-day MA but above it, I think we go higher here, but I would wait until we are 15% about the 50-day and 19% above the 200-day before I would bet on a pull back. Should you jump in here, I would say yes because we should be in for a good run.

Bitter_Tea442

MSFT has been consistently about the 200-week MA and only touched it a few times since 2012 so maybe?

Prudent-Corgi3793

MU just passed ORCL and MA in market cap 📈

Ancient_Sort5820

If MA isnt green im going to scream

ExoticDaikon1872

when MA earnings ?

Red_Zone_Broly

Am I dumb for wanting to full port into Gold at these levels, (2 week MA RSI is seriously overbought too)? (Or should I do phased buying)

NOIRCEUR_TRADING

For sure. Each stock has key support levels that are tested to the upside and downside. Like SPY. So I look at the volume, resistance, support, MA, etc etc to determine a general direction of where the stock could go in the next 2 weeks. If something like Nvidia trades around $200 for 4-5 trading days but shows no clear signs of a want to breakout, volume decreases, and MA starts to dip then I'm very likely entering a Put option. Something like Palantir finds a lot of support historically (3M chart) around $150 so I inspect it daily while using my indicators, if there's confirmation across the board at that price for a Call, I enter the trade.

VSTPR

I’m excited. MA GET THE POPCORN READY

longGERN

Sold ASML and sold META. Both mooned I fear I will send V/MA in half tomorrow as they're huge positions...

LumpyShock9656

I'm scared for my MA position. Earnings tomorrow biting my nails.

poozyfloor

META above 50MA and it has turned upward. Buy time.

HOOD man I’m really disappointed we didn’t PP touch 200 MA today

looool_k_libtard

Robinhood obviously did well in 2025 but god damn has it done fuck all since July. Just bleeeeeeeding every month back to its 200 day MA around $100.

music_is_gud

It bounced off 200 MA today. If it closes the day above it, it could be a good buy signal

zurijer

MA puts easy money

Latrodectus1990

Just wait for taco to tell he will speak with insurers about that MA rate proposal, rocket imminent

arbitraryBlue

I gave you STX and SBUX so I'ma keep it going. MSFT, META, and MA calls. Now you might think about getting puts for TSLA but think about the concept of sex robots, therefore calls on TSLA

Medical_Border2841

Bruh you're basically betting on Trump to cave to Big Insurance which is honestly pretty solid DD given his track record with backing down on stuff that sounds good but breaks the math Your actuary friend probably knows what's up - no way they let MA plans actually bleed money when boomers are their main customer base

DifferenceTimely8292

All MA margins are capped at 15% max - with 85% mandatory in benefits. Most payor’s MLR is north of 99s and their profit margin for MA is 0 or into negatives. This rate announcement essentially is negative multiplier (considering inflation) and I don’t see how this can work out . May be lower max benefit % to 75??

rapid_youngster

Yeah, the new admin's proposal for flat MA rates in 2027 is definitely a factor. But UNH is also dealing with other stuff like the DOJ probe. It'a mix of policy and company-specific issues. Tough spot.

coolest35

>Can’t the insurers just pay less to medical providers? And you think the medical providers will just bend over and take it? Lol They'll drop all these MA plans and the insurers will be fucked cause their patients don't have anyone in network... Also, paying your medical staff less isnt really going to make up for the 4% reimbursement drop.

Any-Grapefruit-937

Medicare user here. There are several parts to Medicare. Part A covers hospitalization. There is no charge for that. Part B pays for doctor visits tests, etc. on an 80/20 basis. There is a monthly premium for that. It is indexed by income, but for most people (incomes less than ~$125k a year), they were $185/mo. You pretty much have to start Medicare parts A&B as soon as you are eligible. If you wait, you will probably have a lifetime surcharge. The private insurance part comes in to cover the 20% that Part B doesn't cover. You can imagine if you have a serious illness, that 20% you would have to pay could be a big number. So, you have 2 insurance options to cover that. Medicare Advantage plans or Supplemental plans. MA is much less expensive and in some cases, offers more benefits. The trade off is a smaller pool of providers accept it and prior authorization is required to see specialists, etc. Supplemental plans have more Dr. choices and fewer prior authorizations required.  This is already too long and boring, but I suspect private insurance companies lobbied hard to get to offer the supplemental/MA plans. Money talks as we all know. The companies are now rethinking the wisdom of this.

KevtheKnife

Most will tell you Technical Indicators are voodoo. That said, it's typically a combination of indicators including MAs to gauge the strength and direction of a trend. I personally take a look at the 50, 100, 200 MA as well as the MACD, RSI, and ADX to inform my investing (not trading) decisions. Read up on Investopedia to learn more of the ins/outs of these Indicators. There are others and I'm sure the genius multimillionaires of this sub will weigh in with their own secret sauces.

MistakeTraditional38

my insurer stopped MA at new years

MistakeTraditional38

My insurer stopped MA as of 12/31/25, I should have seen this coming

BleuBrink

MA plans are sort of hybrid private-public plans. Private insurance companies offer the plans and the government reimburse them a set amount per enrollee. Why? I'm not entire confidant in explaining. Probably has to do with America's longstanding dogma of thinking that the private industry is more efficient than the government, and a lot of lobbying.

BleuBrink

This has nothing to do with affordability. Healthcare providers are not going to lower their MA plan price in response to receiving less rebate, that would double their loss.

Careful_File7475

one of the best strategies is buying at ATH and selling once the 200MA is breached
