Other key points to watch

Possible share price reaction

Shares remain below IPO price
The stock jumped as much as 7.5% on Thursday after Lyft’s better than expected earnings earlier this week
An upside surprise in Uber’s results could deliver a positive-shock to shares
Missing forecasts, or just meeting expectations could send the shares lower
Options pricing shows a high put/call ratio and skew. These point to bearish sentiment
19% of the stock is held by short sellers betting the price will decline

Chart thoughts

Uber is in an upswing from its post-IPO gap fill. There are decent technical signs of a change in sentiment
Downward velocity that followed a rejected attempt to approach 28^th June’s primary cycle high has dissipated
The stock escaped a falling channel this week
A fresh cycle low was established at $38.20 on Wednesday; closely echoing several lows nearby
$39.24 may be significant support as it was the top price on Uber’s first post-IPO Monday, 13th May. It was also the bottom of the gap after Uber’s 10^th May debut
The 8^th July swing low of $42.75 established a floor for most of that month. It’s now resistance
Added significance (‘confluence’) comes from proximity to 61.8% of the 29^th July-7^th August
Since Uber has settled at resistance just ahead of earnings, current levels are a rough marker. They can define sentiment: Above here signals well-received figures; below would be negative
If the stock escapes its 26^th June bearish outside day range–even better
The bottom of that range—$42.36—adds support
Failure to break above current resistance will return Uber to a downward course
In that case, assuming no help from the 38.2% Fibonacci, expect another visit to $39.24; perhaps $38.32
