On a 30-minute chart, like several other computer chip manufactures has approached or reached a near-term top. Overall Broadcom has gained 19% YTD. Earnings are in about two weeks. I see this as a short trade to follow AVGO from the top of the channel down to about 1225 in time to catch earnings at the bottom of the channel to end the swing trade and instead go long from there. I intend to close the trade two days before earnings and flip sides hunting the beat on the earnings.
