UNH: DOW30 Healthcare Value ReboundI've been researching stocks in the healthcare sector recently, and it seems that the places to put your money are into healthcare operators, hospital services, and medical facility REITs. United Healthcare got beaten down with the rest of the healthcare sector in late April. However, they rebounded in the other direction after their earnings call. I've been watching them to wait for a stronger trend to set in, and I believe the time is now. Volume spiked on earnings and has remained relatively flat since, so neither a drop or spike in volume is a good side that the buyers are holding and the sellers are having to be bid up to let go of their shares.
As for technicals, the price just popped above the 50 day moving average and the 20 day moving average shows a clear bottoming out and converging to overtake the 50 day. MACD has been weakly bullish in the histogram but just crossed positive, and this is confirmed with the holders sentient sloping upward and going positive. For trendedness, ADX is 17 showing that the old trend is long dead but a new one is still shaping up, but DI+ diverging from ADX and DI- shows that a new uptrend is brewing. RSI is sloping upward with the Friday and Monday above 50, so prices are out of oversold territory and rebounding but not yet oversold. Money flow continues to be positive, and the short interest is idling along showing that there's not a lot of confidence in betting against the stock.
Beyond the technicals, UNH is in a good position to weather this current bout of the trade war. They're primarily a domestic healthcare provider and operator, and they're going to benefit from the falling price in goods rather than be hurt by it. Demand for healthcare is fairly inelastic, and investors are going to seek shelter in service providers of various types with low risk exposure to selling goods or dealing with rising prices from import/export dynamics.
UNHH34 trade ideas
UNH 30 min APRIL 22ND 2019 wedge up watching for breakout Will stick to these trendlines until broken.
Ideally looking for a breakdown of support TL and back test making for a great short trade to potential double bottom.
If breakout up will most likely be quite sharp as seen with wedge ups. Can make for a great short fade to retest at which point i would watch for long.
UNH New "Temporary" Up Trend - Safety/Value Play-$250 ResistanceUNH and other healthcare stocks such as Anthem, Cigna, etc. could be a potential area that benefits from those flocking from higher volatility areas that have earnings this week that are looking for some high quality value that were once "growth" stocks. I think UNH at least goes back to $250 area within the next week or so. I'm holding call options. Good luck! UNH

UNH wait for support and sellHello everybody
Here is a brief analysis of the Unitedhealth Group.
We broke through an important zone of resistance (blue line).
Now it is important for me to wait for a return and wait from there for a signal candle which confirms the signal.
I think we will see a retrace between the 50s and 78s fibo. However, the course could turn even at the blue support line.
We are also under the 200 EMA due to the strong sell-off in recent weeks.
enjoy the way
