1-year chart of Yelp (NYSE: YELP)
YELP has been on an overall decline since its September peak at $87. And during the first 9 months of the chart, you cans see that the stock had also created an important level of support at $50 (green). Once the stock broke that support lower prices followed. YELP is now back up at the $50 level, which should provide resistance for the stock.

The Tale of the Tape: YELP broke a key level of support at $50 and has now rallied back up to it. A trader could enter a short position at $50 with a stop placed above the level. However, if the stock were to break back above the $50 level, a long position might be entered instead.
