GT Advanced Technologies: A Break Above $7?

 | Sep 10, 2013 01:59AM ET

GT Advanced Technologies (GTAT) is showing again that the $7 level is very important to the stock. It has hit resistance 3 times in the last 12 months and was at support 4 times in the 12 months before that. This is how you define a major pivot point. The chart below shows that 7 falls between the 23.6% and 38.2% Fibonacci retracement of the move lower from the spike in May 2012. This time it arrives with a Relative Strength Index that is in the low 70s which could stall it out for a bit or reverse it, and a Moving Average Convergence Divergence indicator (MACD) that is positive but flattening.

These could give a clue that the Cup that has formed will be followed by a Handle lower. The Cup and Handle has a target higher at 11.40. Either way it is one to put on your radar. Either for a break above $7 now or a Handle forming for a future move.
