Salesforce: #PowerStocks Series Pick Of The Week (September 2026)

Nanning. The capital of the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region has become notorious in recent days. With the scam in Nanning splashed all over the headlines, millions (even billions) of people worldwide are aware of this investment scam. It breaks my heart to know so many people have fallen victim to this scam. Having invested in conventional and alternative investments, I still prefer conventional investment schemes such as the stock market. The stock market is a huge place to invest, and you can begin with a small amount of capital. Your licensed broker is legally required to keep your trading capital separate from its bank account, and more. With such security measures in place, my funds are much safer. Speaking of the stock market, I've discovered a potentially excellent swing trading candidate. But before I share more about my discovery, let's review last week's #PowerStocks pick: CF Industries (CF).

Review Of Last Week's Pick Of The Week

CF Industries (CF) was last week's stock pick. It's a leading manufacturer and distributor of fertilizers worldwide, with a market value of over $19b. After exploding by over 16% in less than 2 weeks, the awaited pullback came. Its share price reached the support area identified and bounced soon after. Did it reach my intended take-profit level? It has reached my 1st take-profit level, and I am looking forward to it rising further. Where's my 2nd take-profit level at? Head over to my Telegram Channel to find out! Speaking of Telegram, my team and I will never ask you for your hard-earned money for "investments". I know and understand that the allure of high returns without effort is highly attractive. It breaks my heart when I hear of people falling for impersonation scams.

To protect you from scams, please note that my team and I WILL NEVER solicit for any investment.

Why Is Swing Trading Salesforce (CRM) Worth It?

Source: salesforce.com

Salesforce is a leader in the customer relationship management software industry. With a market capitalization of over $210b, it's the world's 10th largest software company, just behind CrowdStrike. While the shares of some large-cap companies suffer from lethargy, Salesforce's shares tend to explode upward consistently — each measuring between 5% and 34.6%. Its share price could continue pulling back in the coming days after a sharp 34.6% rise in 8 days. What's my game plan? Where's a favorable price area to buy its shares at? Continue reading to get the details.

Performance Of US Stock Market vs Salesforce (CRM)

What is the 1st thing I'd want to know from this analysis? I want to identify the trend of Salesforce's share price. Why? Knowing the trend of its shares allows me to determine whether I'd look for a buying or shorting opportunity because following its price trend will sharply increase my chances of profitability. Given the mighty uptrend in Salesforce's share price, I'd like to identify a buying opportunity. Great! But that's not all. I'll compare the performance of the S&P 500 against Salesforce's shares. A stronger performer is more likely to continue bringing a higher return; therefore, buying the stronger performer is more likely to make my hard-earned money work harder. While the S&P 500 had climbed 4.4% in the past 3 months, the shares of Salesforce shot up by 39.6% over the same time period! That's a mighty 9x outperformance by Salesforce! I want to buy its shares for an explosive swing trade. But is this all there is to analyze?

How Explosive Is Salesforce (CRM)?

No, there's still more to analyze to boost my chances of success. Because I only want to ride its next powerful upmove instead of holding its shares, my holding period will be as short as a few days. Hence, I want its shares to have the ability to explode upwards fast. Have Salesforce's shares consistently exploded upwards? Marking out the explosive upmoves for the past 11 months has left me stunned. There are 31 huge explosive upmoves, each measuring between 5% and 34.6%! What's even more impressive? Salesforce is the world's 10th-largest software company, with an enviable market capitalization of over $210b. The share movement of such huge companies is usually more subdued, but not Salesforce's. Additionally, I appreciate that Salesforce enjoys a massive market capitalization, which provides an extra layer of security against manipulation. I don't wish to lose my hard-earned money to manipulation that could be easily prevented! Here comes the golden question: Is it time to buy the shares of Salesforce for an explosive swing trade?

Key Price Levels

As with many things in life, timing is key. Trading is no exception. Buying an explosive stock at the wrong time can result in significant losses and emotional distress. This will cause you to lose confidence, and you'll doubt yourself even when a fantastic trading opportunity arises straight from under your nose! Is it time to buy the shares of Salesforce for an explosive swing trade? You can gain this insight by uncovering its key price levels (also known as support and resistance zones). And that's what I've done in the chart above. Because its shares have shot up sharply by 34.6% in 8 days, I expect this pullback to continue. I've marked out a support area around $243. This tells us that Salesforce's share price is likely to drop to around $243 before rising again. Once that happens, I'll watch for a bounce before buying its shares to catch the next explosive upmove. Here's a pro tip: Instead of staring at your screen, consider setting a price alert on your broker's platform to be notified so that you can spend precious time with your loved ones.

Which Instrument Should You Consider Using?

  Do you ever wonder about the instrument used to trade explosive stocks? With 3 main trading instruments available - stocks, contract-for-difference (CFD), and options, you wonder which suits you best. Since stocks (as an instrument) is easy to understand, I shall focus on CFD and options. Here are the main similarities and differences: CFD works like a mirror to stocks. When a stock rises $1, its CFD rises $1. However, due to its unique pricing mechanism, your options price doesn't rise by the same amount. In fact, depending on the market conditions, the price of your options contract may even drop! Your CFD broker will charge you a finance fee for lending you money for your trade. However, no lending is required for options, so there is no finance charge. Because there's a finance charge by your CFD broker, CFD is not the ideal instrument for mid to long-term trades. On the other hand, options allow you to implement different strategies across time horizons. Both CFDs and options are leveraged instruments because they allow you to control a larger market position with a smaller amount of capital. While CFDs do not have an expiration date, options traders must pay attention to the expiration date of their options contracts. You must be thinking, "What's the beauty of trading options?" Options are like smartphones. You can choose to use a smartphone for its basic or advanced functions.

And options don't have to be all about Math and dry!

It can be made easy to understand through real-life analogies.

In the same way, you can implement basic and/or highly advanced strategies depending on your level of comfort. Options allow you to be versatile in adapting to the shifting market conditions and capturing opportunities in the process. Are you a CFD or options trader? I'm glad to be fluent in both.
