Please take a look at the 1-year chart of ESI (ITT Educational Services, Inc.) below with my added notations:
1-year chart of ESI (ITT Educational Services, Inc.) ESI peaked last July at $65 and lost more than 80% of its value from there. The stock seems to be forming a base over the last (6) months all the while hitting a very important level of resistance at $20 (red). No matter what the market has or has not done since December, ESI has not been able to break through that area of resistance. If the stock can finally move above $20, higher prices for the stock should follow.
The Tale of the Tape: ESI has a key level of resistance at $20. A long trade could be entered on a break through that level. However, if you are bearish on the stock, a short trade could be made on any rallies up to $20.
