Chart of the Day
π Today's Chart of the Day was shared by Larry Thompson (@HostileCharts).
- Larry points out that the S&P 500 Top 50 ETF ($XLG) closed at all-time highs after gapping above resistance from the July peak, around $48.
- When price gaps above a well-defined resistance level like this, it's called a Breakaway Gap, the most bullish type of breakout.
- $XLG is resolving higher out of a three-month Ascending Triangle pattern. This bullish pattern is defined by horizontal resistance at $48 and rising trendline support.
Takeaway: It's hard to be bearish when the heaviest stocks in the market are resolving higher.
