Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) trend channel, buy level and 3-month target on Trade The Path. Sector: Healthcare. Listed on NYSE. Levels below are fitted to this ticker's own swing highs and lows (Theil–Sen, log-price), then projected 3 months. On this symbol, 6 comparable calls have settled; 33.3% reached the published sell target. Information only, not financial advice.

Mid-channel, rising on both timeframes

Price is between the two trend lines. Nothing to act on yet.

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 (78% against 85%) and it is the one price is respecting now. The last 9 months stay as context: rising, +35% a year. The target of US$272.98 is below the nearest ceiling (US$288.23), so it does not depend on a breakout. What would overturn this: a close below US$241.91 β€” the floor of the channel being read β€” after which the trend, not the entry, is what was wrong.

Trend lines are fitted statistically to past swing highs and lows and projected forward on the assumption the same rhythm continues. It often does not. This is information, not advice.
