And just about, give or take, an inside day on Friday. That action on Friday is what has me interested in a potential intraday long, if it confirms intraday. Ideally, I\u2019d like to see a quick flush into 380 &#8211; 379 and VWAP reclaim, which would confirm buyers are still in control and a multi-day level stand firm. If that were to happen, I would enter long against LOD or a prior 5-min higher low, and look for an add above Friday&#8217;s resistance for continuation higher.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-58093\" src=\"https:\/\/www.smbtraining.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/googl.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"846\" height=\"588\" srcset=\"\/\/www.smbtraining.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/googl.png 992w, \/\/www.smbtraining.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/googl-300x209.png 300w, \/\/www.smbtraining.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/googl-768x534.png 768w, \/\/www.smbtraining.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/googl-610x424.png 610w, \/\/www.smbtraining.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/googl-100x70.png 100w, \/\/www.smbtraining.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/googl-846x588.png 846w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 846px) 100vw, 846px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p>*<i>Please note that the prices and other statistics on this page are hypothetical, and do not reflect the impact, if any, of certain market factors such as liquidity, slippage and commissions.<\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Consolidation Breakout Long in CRWV<\/strong>: A bit more nuanced, as CRWV has earnings around the corner, on May 7. So, ahead of earnings, I\u2019d be open to momentum long trades intraday if it\u2019s holding up well and showing relative strength to some peers. Alternatively, the bigger idea and trade would be post-earnings, if this gaps and clears 125 resistance for a potential breakout trade. In that case, I\u2019d look for a gap give and go setup or resistance firms as newfound support to enter long.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-58092\" src=\"https:\/\/www.smbtraining.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/crwv.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"846\" height=\"588\" srcset=\"\/\/www.smbtraining.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/crwv.png 997w, \/\/www.smbtraining.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/crwv-300x209.png 300w, \/\/www.smbtraining.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/crwv-768x534.png 768w, \/\/www.smbtraining.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/crwv-610x424.png 610w, \/\/www.smbtraining.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/crwv-100x70.png 100w, \/\/www.smbtraining.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/crwv-846x588.png 846w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 846px) 100vw, 846px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p>*<i>Please note that the prices and other statistics on this page are hypothetical, and do not reflect the impact, if any, of certain market factors such as liquidity, slippage and commissions.<\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Consolidation Breakout in MP<\/strong>: Similar to CRWV, if I am not mistaken, it&#8217;s set to report next week on the 7th. What I like about the chart ahead of earnings is the tight base and coil near converging moving averages. It also has a history of excellent momentum and follow-through when it breaks out of bases. Ahead of earnings, I am open to momentum trading it on the long side, similar to CRWV. Post-earnings is where I\u2019d be more swing-inclined if we base above the breakout spot and provide a valid entry intraday following the report.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-58095\" src=\"https:\/\/www.smbtraining.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/mp.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"846\" height=\"586\" srcset=\"\/\/www.smbtraining.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/mp.png 993w, \/\/www.smbtraining.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/mp-300x208.png 300w, \/\/www.smbtraining.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/mp-768x532.png 768w, \/\/www.smbtraining.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/mp-610x423.png 610w, \/\/www.smbtraining.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/mp-100x69.png 100w, \/\/www.smbtraining.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/mp-846x586.png 846w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 846px) 100vw, 846px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p>*<i>Please note that the prices and other statistics on this page are hypothetical, and do not reflect the impact, if any, of certain market factors such as liquidity, slippage and commissions.<\/i><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Additional Ideas on Watch:<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>XNDU<\/strong>: Broke out of a nice, tight flag on Friday.
