EA Looks Poised to Break OutNASDAQ:EA - After a surge from late December to mid February, the stock embarked on a long correction as it retraced around 61.8% of this advance with a falling channel. EA established support in the 88-90 area in July-August and held above this support zone during September-October pullback. Thus, a higher low is taking shape and this could be the start of another leg higher. The stock broke above the red resistance zone this week and I expect a break out of the big falling channel.

EA has had a poor response to its recent games such as Anthem and it continues to thrive from its sub based market model they aren't overly bad with their products but they aren't captivating gamers. Companies such as CD Projekt Red drive a value based model for their content whereas EA drives a profit per unit model from in-game purchases and expansion packs. Overall I think their earnings will be weak and will slightly damage the sentiment in the stock dropping its rangebound formation into a downtrend.
