To review Gannett's stock, please take a look at the 1-year chart of GCI (Gannett Co., Inc) below with my added notations:
1-year chart of GCI (Gannett Co., Inc) GCI has been working its way higher since June, but has since paused in a sideways trading range. For the last (2) months the stock has been stuck within a common pattern known as a rectangle. 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. GCI's rectangle pattern has formed a $22 resistance (red) and a $20 support (blue). A break above $22 would also be a new 52-week high.
The Tale of the Tape: GCI has formed a rectangle pattern. The possible long positions on the stock would be either on a pullback to $20, or on a breakout above $22. The ideal short opportunity would be on a break below $20.
