UnitedHealth (UNH) Share Price Surges after Strong Report
UnitedHealth shares surged Tuesday, rising more than 5% after the health care giant delivered stronger-than-expected first-quarter 2024 results:
→ earnings per share: actual = USD 6.91, expected = USD 6.61, last quarter = USD 6.16;
→ gross income: actual = USD 94.4 billion, expected = USD 92.1...
Simple idea for a short scenario but only if a reversal pattern or signs of weakness occur at the top green rectangle zone. Discretionary approach for each trader to decide according to their needs or preferences, perhaps in tune with other opinions found elsewhere.
Just wanted to leave this here for anyone interested in this stock, as I have also developed some...
Here you can see the slightest difference between orange controlled buying and magenta controlled selling - but the fact that magenta has proven control over the past 2 bounces indicates that magenta is in control and this is in fact a larger liquidity build for the bulls.
Helpful to know this for all future analysis!
Happy Trading :)

This is where I am planning to go LONG for this stock. Probably towards Q2-Q3 , hopefully earlier, I expect to see some form of sector rotation with tech stocks retreating and the healthcare stocks coming back into the limelight. This would be a good time to accumulate.
Key arguments in support of the idea.
▪ UNH stock has come under pressure from a series of adverse events,
though Q1 earnings may improve investor sentiment regarding further
UNH business growth potential.
▪ A good moment for buying, both fundamentally and technically.

UNH is correcting the cycle from Mar 2020 and is near a significant bottom. Most likely it will bounce followed by a marginal low. Great generational long opportunity, with stop set at 409.

UnitedHealth shares have now dipped into the green Target Zone between $447.18 and $470.19. This is the price range in which we expect the low of the green wave (B) and thus a reversal. We therefore now expect a rise to above $495.87. At 40%, however, we think it is likely that the price will slip below the zone again and the low of the green wave alt.(B) will end...

United Health Care makes up 8.52% of XLV the health care ETF. If you go look at the ETF it's making new highs, while its second largest weighting is still trading in range. My question is how long does UNH continue trading in this sideways range its been in?
Last time we looked into United Health (UNH) we gave a strong buy signal (October 03 2023, see chart below), which turned out to be very successful:
After getting rejected on Resistance 3, the stock started to decline structurally within a Channel Down. It is a pattern similar to the Channel Down of November 2022 - March 2023, which was again formed after UNH...
We can observe a weekly Wyckoff in place for UnitedHealth.
I have Two possible scenario
1) The price took the weekly liquidity (External Liquidity) and can now go Up until reaching "BC" at least
2) The price will go down and take frist the "STB" to make a "SPRING" and then will go UP until the "BC"
On my side I prefer to keep observing as the price can be slide...
This is a trading idea with a medium-term horizon spanning a few weeks. We're observing United Health Group's stock stabilizing at a significant level on the daily chart. Concurrently, there's an emerging hidden bullish divergence in the OBV, albeit unconfirmed. Given UNH's price reaction at the support zone, we're considering a long trade. Our target is the low...
UNH has typically performed well in the market. Buying the dip on some just chance unfortunate news regarding the cyber attack that brought Change Healthcare down. I have held positions in UNH for over 15 years. This is a good one to buy and hold. Change my mind.
