Take a look at the 1-year chart of Range (NYSE: RRC) below with the added notations:
Like most energy names, RRC declined persistently into the beginning
of the year. The stock then formed a double bottom price pattern, and
then confirmed that pattern in April. The double bottom pattern, and
confirmation, formed a $55 price level (blue) that has become important
to the stock. Not only was the $55 mark the resistance point between the
two bottoms, but that level was also support after the stock broke
higher in April.
The Tale of the Tape: RRC has a key level at $55. A
trader could enter a long position on a pullback down to $55 with a stop
placed under the level. However, if the stock were to break back below
$55, a short trade could be made instead.
