To review Builder's stock, please take a look at the 1-year chart of BLDR (Builders Firstsource, Inc.) below with my added notations
BLDR had been trading within a sideways Rectangle for about (3) months. Rectangle patterns form when a stock gets stuck bouncing between a horizontal support and resistance. A minimum of (2) successful tests of the support and (2) successful tests of the resistance will give you the pattern. For BLDR, the Rectangle pattern formed a $4.50 resistance (maroon) and a $3.50 support (blue). The stock broke out of that Rectangle at the end of last month and now seems to be coming back to the old breakout resistance.
The Tale of the Tape: BLDR formed a very common chart pattern know as a Rectangle. Last month the stock broke through the resistance, headed higher, and now seems to be coming back to the previous $4.50 level. A long trade could be made at $4.50 if the stock approaches that level.
