On Thursday, there are three earnings reports that are Jim Cramer favs: T-Mobile US (TMUS) , Take-Two Interactive Software (TTWO) , and Roku (ROKU) . Cramer recommended all of them during Friday's Mad Money program.
Let's keep it simple and check out the charts of TMUS. 
In this daily bar chart of TMUS, below, we can see a possible "bull trap" pattern. This "older style" pattern happens when a stock is pushed up to a new high above resistance but is quickly rejected and reverses back below what should have become support (the prior resistance area).
The new high in price gets the bulls to buy and the reversal down through support traps the bulls with bad/unprofitable positions.
TMUS is trading below the declining 50-day moving average line.
The On-Balance-Volume (OBV) line is showing weakness the past two months and the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) oscillator has moved below the zero line for an outright sell signal.
In this weekly bar chart of TMUS, below, we can see that prices are above the 40-week moving average line. The rise of the line is starting to weaken.
The OBV line has weakened since June and tells me that sellers of TMUS have been more aggressive.
The weekly MACD oscillator has crossed to the downside for a take profits sell signal.
In this daily Point and Figure chart of TMUS, below, we can see a potential downside price target in the $92 area.
Bottom line strategy: I have no special knowledge of the upcoming earnings for TMUS but the charts and indicators have tilted to the downside. Avoid the long side of TMUS for now.
