1-year chart of KBR (NYSE: KBR)
KBR has been in a solid downtrend over the last year, which may or may not be over, while finding support at $15 (green) over the last 3 months. Now that the stock is there again, traders should be able to expect some sort of bounce. However, if the $15 support were to break, much lower prices should follow.

The Tale of the Tape: KBR has a key level of support at $15. A trader could enter a long position at $15 with a stop placed under the level. If the stock were to break below the support a short position could be entered instead.
