SolarEdge Holds Support After Gapping DownSolar stocks have outperformed lately as investors react to high oil prices and the green-energy movement. Today we’re looking at SolarEdge Technologies , the No. 2 company in the group by market cap behind Enphase Energy .
The main pattern on the chart is the falling trendline that began in November and ran along the highs of April and most of July. SEDG ripped through that resistance on July 27 as lawmakers advanced key legislation supporting the sector.
Earnings subsequently missed on August 2. That caused the stock to gap lower, but it managed to remain above the previous trendline. Has old resistance become new support?
Second, the 50-day simple moving average (SMA) just rose above the 200-day SMA: a potentially bullish “golden cross” pattern.
Next, consider the sequentially higher lows since January – unlike the broader market’s steady decline through mid-June. Finally, notice how the relative strength index (RSI) has remained mostly above its midline at 50. Both of those patterns could reflect buyers outnumbering sellers.
