To review Brookdale's stock, please take a look at the 1-year chart of BKD (Brookdale Senior Living, Inc.) below with my added notations:
BKD has been trading sideways for the majority of the year. The stock has also created a $30 resistance (teal) and a major support level at $26 (brown) during that period of time. A break through the $30 resistance would also be a new 52-week high for the stock and should mean higher prices ahead. One last thing to notice: If the stock pulls back first to prepare to break higher, the level of $28 (blue) could act as support.
The Tale of the Tape: BKD has a 52-week high resistance at $30. A long trade could be entered on a break through that level or on a pullback to $28. If a test of $28 doesn't hold, a fall to $26 would also provide a long opportunity. If the stock breaks below $26, a short trade should be entered.
