Opening/macro/sector context
TradingView provides a useful summary of what this company does.
“Astera Labs effectively provides technology that helps improve speed, reduce latency, and increase bandwidth between users and the cloud infrastructure where AI services are based.”
In simple terms, this is an AI connectivity and semiconductor infrastructure play.
As more AI workloads move through the cloud, the need for faster, lower-latency, higher-bandwidth connectivity becomes increasingly important.
So while this may not be the most obvious front-end AI name, it sits in the plumbing and infrastructure layer that allows AI systems to run more efficiently.
Overall technical analysis
Because Astera Labs has not been around for long, I am combining the longer-term and shorter-term structures into a single overall technical analysis section.
The company has been listed for a relatively short period compared to many other technology stocks, having floated in March 2024.
That means the full price history fits comfortably on the daily chart, and we can get all the key information in one place.
I have marked out three pink boxes where the stock has gone through periods of sideways action.
In the first two pink boxes, once Astera Labs broke out of the box, it moved on to fresh all-time highs.
The second box was particularly interesting because the stock formed a near-perfect U-shape back to the $144 level, before gapping higher.
After that, the price moved higher again, consolidated briefly, and then pushed to all-time highs.
The stock then returned to the third pink box and consolidated again.
During that period, the price moved down to around $96 and then rose back up to $229, a level it touched several times.
The most convincing breakout of that third box came on 18 May.
After that breakout, Astera Labs produced a clean move higher, with a series of higher highs and higher lows.
I have marked that out with the red arrow on the chart.
As of the close on 29 June, the stock is now pushing out towards approximately $455.
What makes this pattern interesting is that the stock has now had a healthy pullback while maintaining its structure.
I have marked the last key structural point, the daily swing low, with the yellow line.
That level was clearly held, so this can be treated as a proper pullback rather than a structure break.
After that, the price pushed higher again.
We then had three grey candles, followed by the candle on 29 June turning blue and pushing out to all-time highs.
I have now taken this trade and am looking for the stock to continue pushing higher.
Entry trigger:
I have taken this trade on the daily timeframe. We saw a pullback, followed by a series of grey candles, and then a blue candle that punched through to all-time highs with a good risk-to-reward.
Usual entry trigger is one of two things:
Three clean closes above the last breakout of the pink box.
A breakout of the pink box, followed by a pullback to touch the top of the box, and then a move higher.
Initial stop loss:
Last 4-hour swing low.
Given that this trade was taken on the daily timeframe, the key daily swing low, marked by the yellow line, is also important for structure.
Multi-timeframe correlation:
3M: Grey (might due to lack of data)
1M: Blue candle
1W: Blue candle
1D: Blue candle
4H: Blue candle
When should I tighten the stop-loss?
Tighten the stop loss as new 4-hour swing lows form and the stock continues to move higher.
Because this trade was taken from the daily timeframe, the marked daily swing low should also remain an important structure level.
When do I add to the position?
The best way to add to the position is on a pullback from a yellow-to-blue candle or a grey-to-blue candle, as price starts to move back up and attempts to break out again.
Potential target range:
$752
This target is shown on the weekly timeframe and represents roughly 65% upside from the current level.
Activated price targets:
1 on the weekly.
Am I in this trade?
Yes
Current R multiple:
+0.02R
