Fundamental Rationale- AAPL catching my eye here, by no means is this a short-term play. 9 times out of 10 AAPL is a classic case of "buy the hype, sell the news" when it comes to earnings. Will have a solid run-up to earnings and sell-off after as everything will already be priced in, will be playing AAPL's run-up to earnings with one of the two plays annotated on the chart (See Green Box). On a slightly different note, big symmetrical triangle here on the daily timeframe on AAPL and is sitting right on its 20-day SMA (Not Pictured). Given the markets are all at or near all-time highs and in my opinion, are very overextended. That being said will be expecting a retracement back down to the 50-day EMA. Regardless, bullish and will be looking for a breakout from this triangle- Keep in mind this is a long-term play, just some support and resistance levels to keep an eye on along with some RSI-based supply and demand zones to keep an eye on in the meantime- ** 4-Hour & Previous Charts Attached Below **
