Nice little continuation pattern developing over the past 7 days. Impending breakout to the upside or downside before the end of the week. Low volume pullback this morning found support at $470 and has been incrementally rising as I write this. This supports the bullish rising wedge forming with the higher lows, confirmed by RSI and volume. Red line shows point of control as $490 for activity over past 7 days. A big candle with lots of volume punching through this area (like September 28), but holding above the triangle could send this stock to $550, which is a target shared by Elliott Wave traders (I need to study up on EW). At any rate, there's a convergence of bullish indicators and chart readings.
I've revised my thesis that this stock is a strong short [at current price]. I've been anchoring to the fundamentals (as all shorts do); a thorough look at RSI shows that divergence is eliminated by looking at multi-day/weekly charts. Strong shorts break apart with a bang, not a whimper. We're going to need to see a massive rising candle and equally destructive sell-off, pushing this stock through at least 2 major support levels in a short period to induce a long term correction. Share your thoughts below on other indicators that point to bearish/bullish activity.
Short term: bullish (first to 490, then 525, then 550)
Long term: bearish (reversion to fundamentals)
Always remember! The stock market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent.
