Technical Analysis

PRCT/USD Stock 15-Minute Chart

Fundamentally, the stock has a lot of strength to move upward; looking into technical aspects, we can see stock delivered a whopping 32.33% return in just one single day. The stock was in an up trend on a daily basis for a long time, indicating the strength in buying. 

Yesterday, the stock opened a gap up and continued to rally upside taking RSI into the overbought zone. Looking for an entry at the current price might get difficult as the stock has made an all-time high with a big gap up space, and if we look at the historical data, then we can see price reverses from a higher level when RSI goes in the overbought zone, as shown in the image. In this situation, there are two entry points. 

  1. This can be a high-risk, reward trade. Using the Fib retracement tool from the 28th Oct high to the 25th Oct low, we can plan an entry if the price faces rejection from the 0.5 level with the stop loss below the buying candle and a target of an all-time high. As the stock is in the news, it might give a rally from this level. 
  2. This trade can give you a low-risk, high-reward ratio, as the price is moving upwards while making a swing and trend line. If the price comes to retest the supporting trend line, then an entry can be made with a stop loss below the trendline and target of all-time high. 

#1 Loser: PHG Stock

PHG/USD 15-Minute Chart

Looking at the chart on a daily time frame, we can see the price has corrected by 15.95% in just one single day. Price was in an uptrend for a long time, taking support from the trendline while creating a rising wedge pattern. Still, on the 28th Oct trading session, the price broke the trendline on the 25th Oct trading session and continued its downward rally consecutively on the second day. 

Currently, price is a channel, and making an entry based on FOMO can result in losing money, as RSI is now in an oversold zone. There are two setups in which sellers can make a position. 

  1. If the price comes to retest the $27.98 level and takes rejection, then entry can be made with a target of $25.06 and stop loss of $29.50.
  2. On the other hand, if prices continue to fall and break the $25.09 level, then entry can be made once the price comes to retest the same level with the trailing target of $20.82 and stop loss of $27.
