RRC declined consistently into the beginning of 2015, but the stock finally bottomed in January, eventually finding support at $45.00 (green). RRC hit that support level once more in March. Now that the stock appears to be falling back down to that support level again, traders could expect some sort of bounce. However, if the $45.00 support were to break, lower prices should follow.

The Tale of the Tape: RRC has an important level of support at $45.00. A trader could enter a long position at $45.00 with a stop placed under the level. If the stock were to break below the support a short position could be entered instead.
