Take a look at the 1-year chart of Wal-Mart (NYSE: WMT) below with my added notations:
WMT has been trending lower for all of 2015. 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. WMT seems to have an important trendline of
resistance, which currently sits right around $62. A break above that
line should mean higher prices, overall, for the stock.
The Tale of the Tape: WMT is currently stuck under a
down trending resistance. A break above that resistance should mean
higher prices for the stock, thus a long trade could be made. Short
traders might look to enter a trade at the resistance.
