top stock trades - 4 Top Stock Trades for Monday: LCID, HOOD, MU, FL

It’s been another choppy day in the stock market. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq futures climbed to new all-time highs overnight, but only the latter was able to make new highs in the regular-hours session. Let’s look at a few top stock trades going into the weekend.

Top Stock Trades for Monday No. 1: Lucid Motors

This seems to be everyone’s favorite stock right now. Lucid Motors (NASDAQ:LCID) has stormed onto the scene and is demanding an intense valuation as investors speculate whether it can be the next Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA).

Despite just starting production, the stock has a valuation of roughly $90 billion.

As for the stock, LCID gave us a sweet bearish reversal earlier this week. However, it found support right at the 10-day moving average.

With the bounce, shares are back over Thursday’s high (giving us a daily-up rotation) and back over $50. From here, I have my eyes on a few levels.

The first is the 78.6% retracement of the entire range at $54.43. For now, shares are being rejected from this level. If that remains the case, the 10-day moving average and this week’s low are what investors need to watch on the downside.

Above $54.43, $55.68 is the next level to watch — the closing high from this quarter. Over the November high at $57.75 and a push into the $60 to $65 area is possible.

Remember, when these high flyers start to wobble, it can become quite volatile.

Top Stock Trades for Monday No. 2: Robinhood

It’s been a rough stretch for Robinhood (NASDAQ:HOOD), which is working on its fifth straight daily decline and eighth decline in the last nine sessions.

For Robinhood, the setup is simple: I want to see the stock back above the day-one IPO low at $33.35.

If it can do that, perhaps the 50-day moving average will be in play.

I like seeing that bit of divergence on the Williams %R reading at the bottom of the chart, as well as support coming into play near $30. However, without some sort of rotational proof, it’s hard to be overly bullish on this name right now.

Top Stock Trades for Monday No. 3: Micron

Micron (NASDAQ:MU) is popping on the day, up by nearly 8%. The move helped send the stock to its highest level since summer as Micron tries to rotate over its Q3 high.

That high comes into play at $83.07. If we get a close above this mark, $85 resistance will be the next so-called line in the sand. Above $85 and we could see a significant push higher.

Keep in mind, $95 has been major resistance.

On the downside, I want to see the 200-day and 50-week moving averages hold as support near $80 — provided that Micron dips that far. If this area fails as support, we could see a retest of the $76.40 level.

Top Trades for Monday No. 4: Foot Locker

Foot Locker (NYSE:FL) is backpedaling on Friday, as the stock retreats on disappointing earnings.

In the lead up to earnings, Foot Locker was chopping around its 200-day moving average. On Thursday, it not only cleared this level but it also cleared downtrend resistance (as seen in the blue line).

Today’s gap-down is nasty stuff. It sent Foot Locker stock hurling below the 10-day, 21-day, 200-day and 50-week moving averages.

The silver lining is that uptrend support and the 50-day moving average are holding as support. Bulls who want to take a stab at FL stock can do so with a stop against Friday’s low.

A move below this level (at $49.02) could put the November low in play at $47.97. Below that and $45 is on the table. On the upside, let’s see if we can retest the 21-day moving average, then today’s high near $54.
