Take a look at the 1-year chart of AMC (Nasdaq: AMCX) below with my added notations:
1-year chart of AMC (Nasdaq: AMCX)
Over the last 6 months the AMCX seems to have formed an inverse head and shoulders pattern (green). I have noted the head (H) and the shoulders (s) to make the pattern more visible. The stock’s neckline resistance is just under the $66 level (red). AMCX would confirm its H&S by breaking through the neckline.
Lastly, keep in mind that simple is usually better. Had I never pointed out this inverse H&S pattern, one would still think this stock was moving higher simply if it broke through the $66 resistance level. In short, whether you noticed the pattern or not, the trade would still be the same: On the break above $66.

The Tale of the Tape: AMCX has formed an inverse head & shoulders pattern. A long trade could be entered on a break through the $66 level, preferably on an increase in volume.
