To review Penske's stock, please take a look at the 1-year chart of PAG (Penske Automotive Group, Inc.) below with my added notations:
1-year chart of PAG (Penske Automotive Group, Inc.) PAG has formed a clear resistance at $32 (red), which would also be a 52-week high breakout if the stock could manage to break above it. In addition, the stock has been climbing the $2 increments (blue) over the last (3) months. Starting from November you can see the bounce on $26, then $28 after that, and now $30. PAG appears to find each increment of $2 as important.
The Tale of the Tape: PAG is stepping higher on the 2's towards its 52-week resistance at $32. A long trade could be made on a breakout above the $32 resistance or on a pullback down to the $30 level. A break below the $30 would be an opportunity to enter a short trade.
