Tracking CRM's Price Path

On Thursday of this past week, Mike Paulenoff alerted MPTrader members of a long set-up in CRM (salesforce.com), writing:
"After making yet another new multi-month corrective low at 212.98 last Friday, CRM has turned up and has climbed above initial resistance at 219.50-220.00, which triggered an initial 'long alert' in my work."
Mike added: "My work argues that CRM has turned up, and has triggered a preliminary buy signal. Only a sharp downside reversal that violates the Jan 15th intraday low at 212.98 will invalidate the signal."
Mike had been tracking CRM in the MPTrader Trading Room for the past 7 weeks, as it progressed towards completion of a major correction.
On Friday morning, he followed up, noting: "CRM is following my preferred technical price path, turning up from last Friday's low at 212.98 towards a challenge of 223-225, which if (when?) hurdled, will confirm the conclusion of the entire Sep-Jan correction (284.87 to 212.98), and the initiation of a potentially very powerful new upleg."
As it turned out, Goldman Sachs on Friday upgraded CRM to a "Buy," with a target orice of $315, and the stock reached an intraday high of 227.79 before closing at 225.77.
Is CRM poised for upside continuation after a completed multi-month correction?

More Top Calls From Mike
On December 13, 2024, with NVDA trading at 132.54, down 13.3% from its All-Time High at 152.89 (11/21/24), and bearing down on a critical 8-week support plateau at 131-132, this is what I posted to MPTraders:NVDA Update: Approaching key support in the vicinity of 132 that if violated and sustained, could unleash the downside potential derived from a two-month top formation (everyone sees the Head and Shoulders formation by now).
Friday afternoon, fifteen minutes before the closing bell in the equity indices, this was my parting comment about Bitcoin:Heading into the weekend, the technical setup argues against holding shorts in Bitcoin... no?...
Many of you have been members of MPTrader for years, perhaps decades (I have been providing MPTrader.com analysis since February 2003!). Rarely do I take a victory lap about my stock, ETF, and market calls, largely because I have always thought my work should speak for itself, which obviates the need to bloviate and beat my chest to stroke my ego. At my core, I am a market nerd and Geek, not a slick-talking marketer (for better or worse).
Back on November 12, 2024, fellow MPTrader member "Rayray" wrote the following when ARCH (Archer Aviation) was trading at $4.83:Mike, as you may recall I have been an active follower of ACHR. I no longer have a position that I trade off of and am on the sidelines watching a move that I should have participated in . That said, is this the move to $9.00 that has been on the table for a while ?... My analysis: NO!...
On the morning of Tuesday, November 12, 2024, I posted the following Heads-Up to MPTrader members concerning my DIS (Disney) analysis ahead of earnings:DIS (Disney) reports earnings on Thursday morning. Technically, DIS approaches Earnings in strong near-term technical condition that argues for a positive reaction to earnings. As long as any forthcoming weakness is contained above 94.80, DIS points higher to 105.10/40, and if taken out, then to 113-115... Last is 100.25...
