BUY signal for ETRN (Head-and-Shoulders Bottom)

The bullish head and shoulders (Head-and-Shoulders Bottom) is the opposite image of a bearish head and shoulders. It has all the same parts—two shoulders, a neckline, and the head. Only instead of the shoulders and head being formed at high points for the stock, they are formed at low points.

The investor psychology is the opposite of the bearish pattern. The stock is falling and hits a temporary low to form the left shoulder before a bounce occurs and forms the left side of the neck. The upward momentum is temporary, and the next down leg takes the stock lower than the left shoulder and forms the head.

Investors jump in thinking the new low is a buying opportunity but then start taking profits after a decent run up to the neckline. The profit-taking creates the next down leg, but investors start buying on this third down leg before it gets down to the previous low. This forms the right shoulder and starts the next upward move.

Now, the momentum is to the upside and the buying pressure sends the stock above the neckline. At this point, the pattern is confirmed. After breaking above the neckline, the upward momentum is likely to continue, and the stock price keeps moving higher.

Trade Idea:

BUY near the Breakout (Entry) price – $7.34

SELL at the Target (Exit) price – $8.24

AngloGold Ashanti (AU) shares are tumbling approximately 11% in premarket trading on March 19, 2026, extending a steep multi-week correction that has now erased more than 35% of the stock's value from its March 2 peak of $129.14. The primary sustained catalyst driving the decline is AngloGold's lowered 2026 production guidance, projecting gold output of 2.80–3.17 million ounces — a mid-point decline versus the company's 2025 output of approximately 3.1 million ounces, and below analyst expectations.
CSIQ shares tumbled approximately 18% in premarket trading on March 19, 2026, following the release of deeply disappointing Q4 2025 earnings before the open. The company reported a net loss of $1.66 per diluted share, far worse than the Wall Street consensus estimate of -$0.98, representing a 69% earnings miss.
YRD shares are tumbling approximately 17% in premarket trading on March 19, 2026, from a prior close of $3.68 to approximately $3.05, following the company's release of Q4 and full-year 2025 financial results before the U.S. market open. Primary catalyst: A dramatic swing to net loss in Q4 2025. Yiren Digital reported a Q4 net loss of RMB 882.2 million (~USD 126.1 million), compared to net income of RMB 331.4 million in Q4 2024 — a more than $250 million deterioration year-over-year.
Shares of MU are down approximately 6.66% in premarket trading on March 19, 2026, sliding from a prior close of $461.73 to around $431.00. Despite a historic earnings beat — fiscal Q2 2026 revenue of $23.86 billion versus the $19.19 billion consensus, and adjusted EPS of $12.20 against an $8.79 estimate — the stock is experiencing a classic "sell the news" reaction.
NEM is trading approximately 9% lower in Thursday premarket, extending Wednesday's 4.56% session loss, as gold prices collapse following the Federal Reserve's hawkish policy hold. Gold spot prices fell 4.21% to $4,616.42 per ounce on March 19, marking the precious metal's sixth straight session of declines — its longest losing streak since late 2024.
Shares of VG are surging approximately +8% in Thursday's premarket session on March 19, 2026, with the stock trading near $16.04, up from the March 18 closing price of $14.85. The primary catalyst is a continuation of bullish momentum driven by a series of analyst price target upgrades, with Scotiabank most recently raising its target from $9 to $11.
LINC shares surged approximately +16% in premarket trading on March 19, 2026, reaching roughly $45.83 from a prior close of $39.51. Primary catalyst: Lincoln Educational Services is hosting its highly anticipated Investor Day today at its brand-new Nashville, TN campus, with presentations beginning at 10:00 am CT (11:00 am ET), live-streamed to investors globally.
PSLV is trading approximately 12% lower in premarket on March 19, 2026, tracking a violent selloff in silver futures. The Federal Reserve's hawkish hold on March 18 — keeping rates at 3.50%–3.75% while signaling fewer cuts ahead — was the primary macro trigger.
The Fed kept rates at 3.5–3.75% and signaled a “higher for longer” stance, with no urgency to cut and a willingness to tighten again if inflation stalls. This backdrop tends to favor quality growth, financials, energy, industrials, and health care, while pressuring long‑duration, leveraged sectors like speculative tech, small caps, utilities, and REITs.
PICS shares fell over 20% today, reversing much of their post‑IPO bounce and dropping well below the US$19 IPO price after initially trading in the mid‑US$15–16 range. The selloff followed PicPay’s Q4 and full‑year 2025 results, which showed strong revenue growth but highlighted thin margins, intense competition and ongoing execution risk in credit underwriting and payments.
RCAT shares fell over 16% today, dropping from recent levels near US$17 toward the mid‑US$14–15 range, after trading as high as US$18.78 in the past year and more than tripling from a 52‑week low of US$4.60.
HYMC shares fell over 13% today, sliding from the mid‑US$30s toward roughly US$31, after trading between US$2.30 and US$58.73 over the past 12 months and closing near US$39 just a few sessions ago.
USAS fell over 10% today, trading around US$5.83 by early afternoon from a previous close of US$6.55 — a one‑day decline of roughly 11% — as more than 5.9 million shares changed hands. The stock had surged earlier in 2026, with some data showing a move from about US$1.11 in March 2025 to over US$7.30 in mid‑March 2026 — a gain of more than 500% — leaving it vulnerable to profit‑taking.
CENX fell about 8.9% today, dropping US$4.94 to US$50.40 by midday, after closing at US$55.34 yesterday; shares now sit roughly 15% below their 52‑week high of US$59.12 but remain far above the 12‑month low of US$13.05. Q4 2025 results showed net sales of US$633.7 million and adjusted net income of US$128.2 million (US$1.25 per share), with adjusted EBITDA of US$170.6 million — a big sequential improvement — but GAAP net income was just US$1.8 million (US$0.02 per share), underscoring earnings volatility.
CNL shares fell over 8% today, trading down from around C$22.90 toward the low‑C$21s, after recently setting a new 1‑year high at C$28.99 on March 2 and gaining more than 70% over the past 12 months.
SMCI shares are plunging approximately 26% in Friday premarket trading, extending sharp after-hours losses from Thursday's session close of $30.79. The primary catalyst is a federal indictment unsealed March 19, 2026, charging three individuals associated with Super Micro — including a company co-founder — with conspiring to illegally export billions of dollars in AI server technology to China.
PL shares are surging approximately 19% in premarket trading on March 20, 2026, building on an 8.67% gain during the regular session on March 19. The primary catalyst is a blowout Q4 fiscal year 2026 earnings report released after the close on March 19, with quarterly revenue of $86.8 million — an 11.55% beat against consensus expectations of $77.81 million.
Unusual Machines (UMAC) is trading down approximately -8.60% in premarket on March 20, 2026, extending losses from the prior session. The primary catalyst is a proposed public stock offering announced after the market close on March 19, 2026, raising dilution concerns among investors.
FDX surged approximately 7% in premarket trading on March 20, 2026, moving from the prior session close of $356.11 to around $381. The primary catalyst is a blowout fiscal Q3 2026 earnings report, with adjusted EPS of $5.25 — beating Wall Street's consensus estimate of $4.13 by more than 27%.
Kingsoft Cloud Holdings Limited (KC) shares plunged about 9% in the most recent session, extending a sharp pullback after a recent rally. The selloff reflects mounting concerns around profitability, with the company still loss-making and showing weak multi-year revenue growth.
