Take a look at the 1-year chart of Eaton (NYSE: ETN) below with my added notations:
1-year chart of Eaton (NYSE: ETN)
ETN started off 2014 by trading mostly sideway, but eventually the stock fell of a cliff in July, and then again in September and October. However, ETN has rallied nicely since that October low. During the entire year, the stock has also made a habit of finding either support or resistance at $70 (purple). A break above that level now should mean higher prices for the stock.

The Tale of the Tape: ETN has a key level of resistance at $70. A long trade could be entered on a break through that level. However, if you are bearish on the stock, a short trade could be made on any rallies up to $70.
