Take a look at the 1-year chart of Autodesk (NASDAQ: ADSK) below with my added notations:
1-year chart of Autodesk (NASDAQ: ADSK)
ADSK has been trending lower for the past 8 months. Over that time, the stock has formed an important trend line of resistance (red). Any (2) points can start a trend line, but it’s the 3rd test and beyond that confirm its importance. ADSK’s trendline resistance currently sits right around $52.
Now that ADSK has hit its trendline again, the stock may be pulling back down to its $50 support (green).

The Tale of the Tape: ADSK is currently stuck under a down trending resistance. A break above that resistance should mean higher prices, thus a long trade could be made either then, or on a fall to the $50 support. Short traders might look to enter a trade at the resistance or on a break of support.
