Netflix Is Preparing To Stream

 | Nov 18, 2012 12:05AM ET

Netflix (NFLX) has exhibited crazy price action over the last year. Loved, hated and now loved again. On the most recent joy ride higher it is now breaking an ascending triangle into resistance at 80. But if you want to be precise, this could be a rising wedge, signalling a more cautious tone.

Either way, the stock seems to be setting up for a crazy move. Over 81 it has a Measured Move higher to 100 with resistance at 85 and 90 along the way. Below 78 it looks to easily retest 70 or 65. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is bullish and supports the break higher, while the Moving Average Convergence Divergence indicator (MACD) is positive but very near a diverging bearish cross to negative.
