Take a look at the 1-year chart of Antero (NYSE: AR) below with added notations:
AR has been declining since May, but most recently the stock has been
trading in a sideways move. While in that sideways move, the stock has
formed a common pattern known as a rectangle. A minimum of (2)
successful tests of the support and (2) successful tests of the
resistance will give you the pattern.
AR’s rectangle pattern has formed a resistance a $27 (red), and a $20
support (green). At some point the stock will have to break one of the
two levels.
The Tale of the Tape: AR is trading within a
rectangle pattern. The possible long positions on the stock would be
either on a pullback to $20 or on a breakout above $27. The ideal short
opportunity would be on a break below $20.
