To review Kohl's stock, please take a look at the 1-year chart of KSS (Kohl's Corporation) below with my added notations:
1-year chart of KSS (Kohl’s Corporation) KSS fell sharply in November, but rallied slowly back up after that. During the last two or three months the stock has been stuck within a common pattern known as a rectangle. Rectangle patterns form when a stock bounces 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. KSS's rectangle pattern has formed a $54 resistance (red) and a $50 support (blue). You can also see that the prices of $54 and $50 were also important to the stock prior to November's decline.
The Tale of the Tape: KSS has formed a rectangle pattern. The possible long positions on the stock would be either on a pullback to $50, or on a breakout above $54. The ideal short opportunity would be on a break below $50.
