Preparing For GS, UAL and UNH Earnings

In tonight’s video, we discuss repeating patterns and tendencies in tickers that are reporting earnings tomorrow. 

Over the last two years:  

[su_list icon=”icon:check-square-o” icon_color=”#333333″ indent=”0″ class=””]

  • Goldman Sachs (GS) – Filled its earnings gap ups 62.5% of the time
  • United Air Lines (UAL) – Gap N Go in the direction 75% of the time
  • United Health (UNH) – Gap N Go (Bullish) 62.5% of the time

[/su_list]

Below are some price targets, based on if the pattern that tends to happen repeats itself, and we get a move in the direction towards our bias.

The price targets are derived using the closest standard deviation, with the V-Score indicator.
