Broken down below, rising on both timeframes
Price has closed below the channel. Support has failed β treat the buy target with caution.
The next few months are read from the last 12 months, not the last 9 months: that channel fits this stock's recent turns at least as well (56% against 65%) and it is the one price is respecting now. The last 9 months stay as context: rising, +12% a year. The nearest ceiling overhead is US$16.89, from the last 12 months. What would overturn this: a close below US$14.80 β the floor of the channel being read β after which the trend, not the entry, is what was wrong.
