Take a look at the 1-year chart of Stratasys (Nasdaq: SSYS) below with my added notations:
1-year chart of Stratasys (Nasdaq: SSYS)
SSYS started a steady decline back in September that lasted until February. During that time the stock formed a very nice trendline of resistance, which was finally broken earlier in April. After breaking that level, SSYS made its back way to the $60 level that had not only been a prior support (blue), but it had also been a prior resistance (green) back in March. Now that the stock has broken above $60 too, higher prices should follow.

The Tale of the Tape: SSYS just broke back above $60. A long trade could be made at that level with a stop placed under it. However, a short trade could be considered on a break back below $60.
