VRTX - DAILY CHART Hi, today we are going to talk about Vertex Pharmaceuticals and its current landscape.
Vertex Pharmaceuticals is poised to receive increasing attention from the market as relevant events are taking place after Proteostasis Therapeutics had unveiled "positive" data from a phase 2 clinical trial testing its triple-drug combination in patients with cystic fibrosis, however, the results were below than Vertex Pharmaceuticals similar product named Trikafta, giving Vertex an edge on the market, and possibly implying that the company could thrive over Proteostasis Therapeutics underperforming.

VRTX Swing ShortUsing a tight stop here with a wide target due to extended nature of this last impulse up and the fact that we're almost perfectly at the 1.618 extension of the last swing high -> swing low.
You can tighten your stop to directly above the highest wick of this impulse as well if you want to increase the Reward:Risk Ratio.
The other thing to watch is the Fibonacci node about 2.5% below this entry (around $215). This area is possible support and could snare price action in this small range for a while. If you're shorting the asset then you're fine but if you're buying puts you may want to cover when/if we reach that area.
This is not financial advice and as always, do your own research.

$VRTX Overbought - Shooting Star Confirmed$VRTX Overbought - beginning to retrace today closing well below yesterday's low, confirming bearish shooting star reversal candle from yesterday. Will be looking for additional 8-10% downside from today's close to the area of the 200d ema near term. (More downside possible depending on outcome of Feb ER)
Target: $170-$175 range by mid February
Also of note, in fundamental news...Vertex just announced today they have terminated their COO/interim CFO as "the result of personal behavior that violated Vertex's Code of Conduct and values" - possibly more fuel to power this latest downward move. Expect a gap down at the open tomorrow morning.
Note: Informational analysis, not investment advice.

Note: Observation/opinion, not investment advice.
VRTX making a possible come backAfter the sell off in June the stock crossed into the oversold territory and is trying to reverse the trend upwards. The second long signal is the breaking above the downward resistance line, if it continues in the current course and breaks above 200MA this will signal a strong reversal.
VRTX setting for move lowerAfter stock bounced from resistance that is intact since May 2013 and broke down upper level support @ $76 with strong follow through to November lows.
Now, it is flagging near lows in front of support. With weak Biotechnology sector and market sitting on resistance it could be start of another down leg.
Enter short @ $63.80
Stop above 21 MA @ $66.83
Target $58.07-$59.76 and then I expect potential break down and continuation move to low $50ish area.
