Take a look at the 1-year chart of Buckle (NYSE: BKE) below with my added notations:
1-year chart of Buckle (NYSE: BKE)
BKE’s trend has been very simply a down one. However, over the past few months the stock has created a key level of resistance at $28 (green), which you can see was a key support back in November and December. A break above that $28 level should mean higher prices for the stock, and last week BKE finally broke that resistance.

The Tale of the Tape: BKE broke through its key level of resistance at $28. A long trade could be entered on a pull back down to that level. However, a break back below $28 could negate the forecast for a higher move and would be an opportunity to get short the stock.
