All's Not Well At Wells Fargo
On May 5, 2017, the Wells Fargo & Company 
WFC 50 day moving average crossed below its 100 DMA. Historically this has occurred 61 times and the stock does not always continue to drop. It has a median loss of 4.438% and maximum loss of 23.427% over the following 24 trading days..
When we take a look at other technical indicators, the relative strength index (RSI) is at 53.1379. RSI tends to determine trends, overbought and oversold levels as well as likelihood of price swings. I personally use anything above 75 as overbought and anything under 25 as oversold. The current reading has the stock moving lower. The RSI has been trending lower since November 2016. Even though the RSI typically cycles between overbought and oversold levels, that has not necessarily been the case with this stock. Overall the RSI is failing to make newer highs which is another significant signal of downward movement. This overall downtrend should continue as long as the RSI stays below this trendline.
The true strength index (TSI) is currently -12.8863. The TSI determines overbought/oversold levels and/or current trend. I solely use this as an indicator of trend as overbought and oversold levels vary. The TSI is double smoothed in its calculation and is a great indicator of upward and downward movement. The current reading declares the stock is down.
The positive vortex indicator (VI) is at 1.0788 and the negative is at 0.6624. When the positive level is higher than 1 and higher than the negative indicator, the overall price action is moving upward. When the negative level is higher than 1 and higher than the positive indicator, the overall price action is moving downward. Currently the stock had been moving up, however, it has begun its reversal downward.
The stochastic oscillator K value is 80.2266 and D value is 81.8878. This is a cyclical oscillator that is highly accurate and can be used to identify overbought/oversold levels as well as pending reversals and short-term activity. I personally use anything above 80 as overbought and below 20 as oversold. When the K value is higher than the D value, the stock is trending up. When the D value is higher that the K value the stock is trending down. Currently the indicator is in overbought territory and the downtrend is beginning. The stock has a history this year of easily swinging up and down three-plus percent when overbought and oversold.
Considering the moving average crossover, RSI, TSI, VI and stochastic levels, the overall direction appears to be pointing down. Based on historical movement compared to current levels and the current position, the stock could drop at least 3% over the next 24 trading days. The trend, MA crossover, RSI, VI, and stochastic strongly support this pending downward skew.
