ROST Ross Stores, Inc.
Ross Stores, Inc. (ROST) trend channel, buy level and 3-month target on Trade The Path. Sector: Consumer Cyclical. Listed on NASDAQ. Levels below are fitted to this ticker's own swing highs and lows (Theil–Sen, log-price), then projected 3 months. If this ticker has no settled sample yet, treat the numbers as a geometric read, not a track record. Information only, not financial advice.
In the buy zone, rising on both timeframes
Price is sitting on the lower trend line — the level that has repeatedly held.
The next few months are read from the last 12 months, not the last 18 months: that channel fits this stock's recent turns at least as well (72% against 68%) and it is the one price is respecting now. The last 18 months stay as context: rising, +64% a year. The nearest ceiling overhead is US$270.62, from the last 18 months. What would overturn this: a close below US$218.00 — the floor of the channel being read — after which the trend, not the entry, is what was wrong.
