Take a look at the 1-year chart of WPX (NYSE: WPX) with the added notations:
After its steep decline towards the end of last year, WPX has been
trading in an overall sideways move since the beginning of 2015. And
during that time, the stock had also created an important level of
support at $10 (red). Now that the stock has broken that support, lower
prices should follow.
The Tale of the Tape: WPX broke a key level of
support at $10. A trader could enter a short position on any rallies up
to or near $10 with a stop placed above the level. If the stock were to
break back above the $10 level, a long position might be entered
instead.
