Before discussing potential trading opportunities, please take a look at the 1-year chart of TRMB (Trimble Navigation Limited) below with my added notations:
1-year chart of TRMB (Trimble Navigation Limited) TRMB had been moving higher since July, but then peaked back in January. Over the last (8) months the stock had formed a level of support at $26 (teal). You can also see how the stock seemed to be hinting of a potential breakdown being that it had been trending lower (blue) in the face of a rising stock market. Well, last week the stock did break that $26 support and should be moving lower overall from there.
The Tale of the Tape: TRMB has broken its support at $26 and the stock has started moving lower. A short position could be entered on any rallies back up near $26 with a stop placed above that level. A break back above $26 would negate the forecast for a move lower.
