Abaxis (ABAX) is testing channel resistance after breaking above the descending triangle, retesting the breakout and holding. A break above it triggers a Measured move higher to 42.30 consistent with the target from the triangle break. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is bullish and rising with a Moving Average Convergence Divergence indicator (MACD) that is positive. Both support a further run higher.
Aetna (AET)
Aetna (AET) is back at the important 45 level as resistance, coming from a higher low. It also has a rising and bullish RSI with a MACD that is positive and growing to support more upside and a possible push through resistance. A break above continues towards the Measured Move higher at 48.30 with a gap fill at 48.75.
Agrium (AGU)
Agrium (AGU) is building a bull flag in consolidation between 99.25 and 103. The RSI is giving no clue as it runs along the mid line and the MACD is positive but stalled. There are gaps in both directions and it seems prudent to look both ways on this one.
