To review Wells’ stock, please take a look at the 1-year chart of WFC (Wells Fargo & Company) below with my added notations:
1-year chart of WFC (Wells Fargo & Company)
WFC has been trending higher since October, and during that time, the stock has been climbing a trendline of support (blue). Over the last 2 months though, the stock has formed at 52-week high resistance at $50 (red). At some point WFC will have to break one of those two levels.

The Tale of the Tape: WFC has a $50 resistance and an uptrend line of support to watch. A long trade could be made on either a pullback down to the trendline, which currently sits near $48, or on a break through the $50 resistance. A break below the trendline support should lead to lower prices.
