2025-10-24 CASH
Summary: AMD remains in a strong uptrend with price above EMA and SMA both rising, but upcoming earnings on 11/4/2025 prevent new entry due to hold requirements and poor historical reactions, while no high-conviction short setup exists amid bullish AI momentum.

Recent chart shows a parabolic rally since early October, with price surging from around $164 to $252 on massive volume spikes, confirming bullish breakout above prior resistance at $180-200, supported by positive MACD crossover and RSI in overbought but sustainable territory for momentum stocks like AMD. No volume capitulation recently, and the rally appears driven by AI sector hype rather than reversal signals.

Simulating based on past patterns: AMD has shown similar sharp breakouts in 2025 (e.g., July-August spike from $134 to $184 on AI news), often followed by 20-30% gains over weeks before pullbacks, but pre-earnings periods frequently see volatility or drops, as in the 8/5/2025 earnings with -6.42% reaction despite neutral surprise. Comparable setups in the last 6 months had >50% win rate for longs held 2-4 weeks post-breakout, but none involved entering right before earnings; false signals occurred in sideways ranges (e.g., September churning), but this isn't that. Learning from history, the 10/7 buy at $211 after breakout worked well to $240, but exiting pre-earnings locked gains—repeating that caution here avoids risk, especially with price near all-time highs and potential for profit-taking.

Fundamentally, AMD benefits from AI chip demand, with recent rumors of expanded partnerships (e.g., potential Microsoft Azure deals boosting data center revenue), classified as bullish due to credible sources like Bloomberg reports in mid-October, timely amid sector rotation to semis, and high market reaction potential given NVDA's parallel moves. Unusual options activity shows heavy call buying in October expiries, indicating bullish sentiment, but insider sales in Q3 were moderate, no major red flags. No bearish news like trade tensions impacting recently, though broader market could face Fed rate uncertainty—nothing material to override technicals.

No other event catalysts in next 3 days per searches (e.g., no conferences or filings); next earnings 11/4/2025. Staying in cash opportunistically waits for post-earnings dip in this uptrend or clearer short if trend breaks, prioritizing risk/reward over chasing highs.
2025-10-23 CASH
Summary: AMD remains in a strong uptrend with recent pullback presenting a potential dip buy, but proximity to 11/4/2025 earnings without meeting hold-through criteria, combined with minimum hold requirements and recent exit on 10/20/2025, warrants staying in cash to avoid short-term trade or earnings risk....
2025-10-22 CASH
Summary: AMD remains in a strong uptrend with price above EMA and SMA, but upcoming earnings on 11/4/2025 prohibit entry as holding through them is not allowed per historical poor reactions, and no immediate catalysts justify short-term trade overriding minimum hold period....
2025-10-21 CASH
Summary: AMD remains in a strong uptrend post-breakout, but with earnings on 11/4/2025 approaching and poor historical reactions, plus recent exit on 10/20 to lock gains, staying in cash avoids risk without a compelling new catalyst for immediate re-entry....
2025-10-20 SOLD

2025-10-06 CASH
Summary: AMD's trend remains unclear with EMA below SMA and frequent price crossings of moving averages in the past month without volume capitulation, preventing new entries despite today's massive gap-up on high volume likely driven by major positive news, while overbought RSI at 79 signals caution against chasing at these levels....

2025-10-02 CASH
Summary: AMD's technicals show an unclear trend with EMA below SMA but price above both, no volume capitulation, and recent volatility leading to prior trade losses, warranting caution to avoid new entries. In the past month, EMA and SMA crossed once around 9/11, and price has crossed the averages multiple times (e.g., dipping below on 9/5 then rebounding), signaling choppiness and unclear trend, which advises against new positions. No recent volume capitulation flagged, so no basis for contrarian long in a potential downtrend. Support at 149.34 has held in prior tests, but current price is well above without testing it recently, while resistance at 193.5 is distant. Indicators like RSI at 63.1 suggest neutral to slightly overbought, MACD improving but still negative (-0.6154 signal), and STO showing upward momentum but not extreme....

Summary: AMD continues in a downtrend with EMA below SMA, price rebounding but still below SMA without volume capitulation, negative MACD, and targeting support at 149 amid semiconductor sector pressures and no immediate catalysts....
2025-09-26 HOLD SHORT
Summary: AMD remains in a confirmed downtrend with EMA below SMA and price below both, negative MACD signaling bearish momentum, no volume capitulation to reverse, and targeting support at 149 while holding through recent bounce without exiting early per multi-week horizon. Technical indicators support continuation: MACD is negative at -0.95 with the signal line at -1.30, indicating ongoing downward pressure; RSI at 47.28 is neutral, not oversold; Stochastic %K at 78.84 and %D at 74.17 suggest a potential overbought condition in the short term that could lead to further downside. Bollinger Bands are contracting slightly with upper at 165.38 and lower at 152.53, pointing to a range-bound move but within the downtrend, and the price is testing resistance around 160-162 without breaking higher sustainably....

2025-09-18 CASH
Summary: AMD's downtrend persists with EMA below SMA and price below both, no new volume capitulation for long entry, and recent capitulation within two months precludes short entry, while high volume on today's up bar suggests potential volatility without clear reversal....
2025-09-16 CASH
Summary: AMD's trend is unclear with EMA below SMA but tightly rangebound after a recent cross, no volume capitulation, and price bouncing from support without high-confidence setup for short entry given the risk of whipsaw in this consolidation phase....
2025-09-15 CASH
Summary: AMD's trend is unclear with EMA and SMA tightly rangebound below typical daily ranges without recent volume capitulation, preventing new entries despite downtrend signals, while price sits near a falling resistance trendline at $161.32 after a bounce from $151 support. No flagged volume capitulation in the past month supports this caution, as it would be needed for a contrarian long in a downtrend. The price has bounced from near the $149.34 support level (tested recently with strength 3), hitting a falling resistance trendline at $161.32 today, suggesting potential for rejection lower, but without clear trend conviction, it's not a high-confidence short setup. MACD is negative at -2.089 with the line below signal, RSI at 48.86 is neutral, and Stochastic shows low momentum with K at 38.62. Volume was average at 30M, not indicating strong directional bias....
2025-09-12 CASH
Summary: AMD's trend remains unclear with a recent EMA-SMA crossover and multiple price crossings of the moving averages in the past month, lacking volume capitulation, while price sits below both at 158.37 near support but without a high-confidence setup for long or short entry. MACD is negative at -2.38, though improving slightly from -2.46, and RSI at 46 suggests neutral momentum without oversold conditions. Volume on 9/12 was average at 35.9M, not signaling strong conviction, and no custom indicators flag volume capitulation in the past month to justify buying in a downtrend....
2025-09-11 CASH
Summary: AMD's trend is unclear with EMA and SMA tightly rangebound after recent crossover, avoiding new entries despite downtrend signals and no volume capitulation, staying opportunistic after the prior loss from buying at highs....

2025-09-05 CASH
Summary: AMD's trend is unclear with EMA above SMA but price below both after a sharp drop without new volume capitulation, signaling caution amid broader semiconductor weakness from trade tensions and no high-conviction setup for entry. Volume was elevated at 63.8M today, but it's not flagged as capitulation, and the low of 150.18 tested near the support at 149.34 without breaking it convincingly. RSI at 37 suggests oversold conditions, but MACD remains bearish with the line at -1.02 below the signal at 1.30, and no bullish divergence yet. Technicals take priority, so without a confirmed uptrend or fresh capitulation in a downtrend, new entries are avoided to prevent poor risk/reward....
2025-09-04 CASH
Summary: Staying in cash as AMD's trend is unclear with price between EMA and SMA amid frequent crossings without fresh volume capitulation, just after exiting a losing long on 9/2 at $162.32 due to breakdown below EMA and prior capitulation low....

2025-09-02 SOLD
Summary: AMD's price at 161.35 has broken below the EMA at 164.96 while still above SMA at 159.81 in an unclear trend without new volume capitulation, dropping below the prior volume capitulation low of 166.7 from 8/7 without invalidation by 5 consecutive bars yet, approaching support at 149.34 amid broader semiconductor sector weakness from recent China trade tensions and no immediate catalysts....
2025-08-29 HOLD LONG
