To analyze Halliburton's stock for potential trading opportunities, please take a look at the 1-year chart of HAL (Halliburton Company) below with my added notations:
I latched on to HAL because of the one simple price level at $30. Not only can you see the $30 support (navy) from back in December and May, but the $30 resistance (red) has also been very obvious over the last (2) months. So, the $30 price is key to this stock. If you are bearish, you might short HAL at the $30 mark, but if you are bullish you would want to see the stock break through the $30 resistance.
The Tale of the Tape: HAL presents two simple trading opportunities based on its key level of $30. A short position could be placed on a rally back up to the $30 resistance, or a long play could be made on a break above $30 if that should happen.
