To review Tyson's stock, please take a look at the 1-year chart of TSN (Tyson Foods, Inc.) below with my added notations:
1-year chart of TSN (Tyson Foods, Inc.) TSN has formed a key level of support at $28 (blue) over the last (3) months. In addition, the stock has created three lower peaks (red) starting in the middle of August. These two occurrences combined have TSN stuck trading within a common chart pattern known as a descending triangle. At some point, the stock has to break support or break its string of lower highs.

The Tale of the Tape: TSN has formed a descending triangle pattern. A short trade could be made on a break of the $28 support. A break through $30 would break the streak of lower highs and would set up a potential long trade.
