Traders Sleeping On PANW’s Institutional Signal
Hey Gang,
Let’s just jump right into it.
PANW is coiling. And nobody’s watching.
While traders chase shiny objects, this cybersecurity giant sits 9% below its highs—building pressure like a spring under tension.
Two squeezes forming. EMAs stacked perfectly. Structure, momentum, and timing converging before the crowd arrives.
This isn’t hope.
This is homework paying off.
Here’s what you’re missing:
Why Two Squeezes = Double the Firepower
Think of a squeeze like a pressure chamber. Volatility contracts. Price gets tight. The setup builds energy — and when that pressure releases? It can move fast and hard.
Now stack that across two timeframes — daily and weekly — and you’ve got something special.
- The daily squeeze gives you that short-term ignition
- The weekly squeeze gives you the fuel for continuation
When both are in play, you’re not just looking at a quick pop — you’re looking at a move that can trend for days or even weeks.
This is what I call alignment — and it’s rare. But when you find it? That’s when the big trades happen.
Stacked EMAs = Structural Strength
Let’s get real. Most traders don’t even look at EMAs — and that’s why they miss setups like this.
When the 8, 21, 34, and 55 EMAs are stacked in order, it tells you one thing: trend strength. Price is being supported by every level of short- to intermediate-term demand.
PANW has this setup on the daily and the weekly.
That’s not noise. That’s institutional accumulation, plain and simple.
When I see that kind of structure paired with a squeeze setup, I don’t wait around for a news catalyst. The chart is already telling the story.
Here’s What Makes This Setup Even More Interesting
The broader market’s been choppy. Semis are wild. Big tech is digesting earnings.
But cybersecurity? Quietly holding up. And PANW in particular has been one of the few names consolidating near highs — not breaking down, not rolling over.
That’s a big tell.
When a stock holds its structure while the rest of the market chops, it’s showing relative strength — and that’s where I want to focus my energy.
Why I’m Watching $208 Like a Hawk
Now, let’s be clear — PANW isn’t breaking out yet. It’s trading around $189, about 9% below its 52-week high at $208.39.
But that’s actually what makes this setup so compelling.
We’re not chasing a breakout. We’re watching a base being built underneath resistance, with two squeezes loading and trend structure intact.
Think of it like watching a runner crouched at the starting line — the move hasn’t happened yet, but everything is coiled and ready.
If we get that push into the $200+ zone and volume confirms? That’s when things get interesting.
I’d Rather Be Early Than Be Late
Most traders wait for the breakout. They want confirmation. But by the time they jump in? They’re buying after the move — and that’s how you end up holding someone else’s profits.
For me? I want structure before the breakout. I want compression before expansion. I want to be in before the crowd even notices.
And that’s exactly what PANW is offering right now.
Your Action Plan
Alright, gang — here’s the bottom line:
PANW is giving us a classic TPS setup:
- Trend confirmed by stacked EMAs
- Pattern forming under key resistance
- Squeeze building on daily and weekly charts
This is the kind of chart that looks boring to most traders… until it isn’t.
Focus on names that are building pressure with structure. That’s where the real edge lives.
And if you’re looking for something quicker — today could get spicy…
Nvidia dropped earnings last night, and while I didn’t play the report, I’ll be watching for a potential Opening Bell Aftershock move right out of the gate.
That’s my go-to strategy for catching those 100–300% rips in the first 30 minutes.
