Quick 3% Gain Baidu(BIDU) Trade on Earnings Release Day (16 May 23)
Please find and follow my YT channel (nerdbull1669) for Daily SG and US Stock Watchlist.
Do follow me as I share quality stock pick for Daily Watchlist.
As I have shared in my article on How I would trade Baidu (BIDU) before Earnings Report on 16 May 23 Premarket
This trade that I gained approx. 3% was done after $Baidu(BIDU)$ announced its earnings. There was a period after the earnings was announced that it start to trade downwards during premarket.
This is where I see opportunity to enter the trade.
Entry at Pre-market
Remember my article on How I find tradeable U.S. stock from trading activities between 8-8.30am EST, I decided to look at Baidu(BIDU) price at around 8am EST.
True enough there was a lot of selling, and I decide to enter close to its premarket opening price of $127.
After I enter at $127.61, price start to trend downwards, this is the time to start believing in your confidence of this stock.
They have a good earnings so they should be trending upwards, the dip could be due to investors who has previously bought low, profit taking. (they might have missed the point when price was at around $133 HIGH in premarket).
Exit at Actual Session
I decide to exit when I see MAVOL5 cross MAVOL10, price is trading above VWAP. I predict that the price should start trading sideway.
I exit at $132.06 with an approx. 3% gain.
Baidu (BIDU) Trading View
I always refer to the Bull/Bear strength for my entry, I would choose to enter when the bear strength is high which mean it could be at its lowest price.
This time, I choose to enter when Bear strength was building up, that is not the highest bear strength.
Summary
Overall this is a good trade, even though I did not manage to get my desirable target entry price, but I am glad that I managed to find a entry price which is not too bad to give a 3% gain.
I might be looking to enter another trade today on Baidu(BIDU), but will monitor price and volume movement closely.

Prior several earnings releases past year the share price went up significantly on the day prior to earnings only for it to lose all of its gaines the following day. Hence I sold all my position today. Looking to buy at the end of the day tomorrow after a big sell-off....
The stock is not up by much because people know that if they bid it up by 10% (as it should be), mm's will take it down like they did last earnings report. So better slow and steady climb.
BIDU announced its Q1 earnings in pre-market trading, which met analysts' expectations. It fell slightly in pre-market trading. The candlestick pattern suggests the pullback is over and it's ready to take off at any time!
Don't pay attention to any analyst opinion. Bidu is the most innovative company in the world. So much cash and great cash flow. Just buy more and hold.
Baidu delivered again. This is the best chinese stock, amazing company, I love holding it.
