This demonstrates a stock that lost 20+% in 2
months, and is hungry for a recovery (picture
below).
1, 2) The price loses 20+% in 2 months, in a nice
orderly progression down, the price stays below the 20MA the whole
time, the -DI (red line) is far above the +DI (green line) (of
the DMI / ADX
indicator) indicating a solid down trend.
2, 3) The stock shows a very strong 2 weeks of
steadily
climbing prices, after a nice stochastics cross over below the
20
line. Notice the great scissoring of the -DI and +DI where
they
cross over (such scissoring indicates a strong reversal of trend).
3, 4) After the minor high at 3, you can draw
channel
lines between the last 2 tops, and draw a parallel line through the
last bottom to mark the up trend channel. During a normal
progression of the channel, the price will head lower towards the low
channel line and bounce up from there.
4) The stock is so hungry for recovery that the
price
never makes it to the low channel line, and starts to head up.
Fast stochastics crosses over the slow stochastics, MACD is
turning around the zero line.
5) Look closely at the DMI / ADX action, the +DI
and -DI
were approaching each other after strong movements up and down, and are
now bouncing off each other, indicating a continuation of the up
trend.
All this is signaling a good probability of a jump in price.
