Ingersoll Rand has barely moved for about six weeks, and some traders may look for its uptrend to resume.
The first pattern on today’s chart is the February 16 high of $92.32, immediately after the last earnings report. The industrial stock remained below that level for more than month. It pushed higher for about two weeks before coming back to hold the same level. Has old resistance become new support?
Second, you have the 21-day exponential moving average (EMA). Notice how IR bounced at the 21-day EMA in early January and mid-March. It appeared to do the same thing last week.
Third, the 8-day EMA has remained above the 21-day EMA. That may reflect the presence of an uptrend.
Finally, a falling trendline started on March 25 but Friday’s close was above it. That may suggest a period of weakness is ending.
