Take a look at the 1-year chart of GNC (NYSE: GNC) with the added notations:
GNC looked like it might have been rounding out a top from November
through July, but then the stock shot to new highs instead. Now, the
stock seems to be coming back down to that same July low. Over the past
year, GNC has found support at that same $41.00 support (green) on
multiple occasions. Traders could expect some sort of bounce if the
stock reaches that support again. However, if the $41.00 support were to
break, lower prices should follow.
The Tale of the Tape: GNC has an important level of
support at $41.00. A trader could enter a long position at $41.00 with a
stop placed under the level. If the stock were to break below the
support a short position could be entered instead.
