SSYS trade ideas
Stratasys - ShortSSYS is a company from the 3D printing industry. It has been in an aggressive downtrend, losing more than 80% of its value since it topped out in 2014.
Looking at the weekly chart, I believe the stock has not bottomed yet. Price is at value after a class A bullish divergence, while the Force Index is oversold.
The daily chart shows a nice double top with a bearish divergence on the MACD lines, histogram and Force index. A text book shooting star candle made a false breakout at the double top.
If this won't prove to be a V shaped bottom, we should see this stock around 15$ again.
Stratasys - Short with the trendThe weekly Wave has turned down, and price is rallying to value. Weekly picture here :
The daily shows a very nice pattern. Everytime price returns to the wave, it's ready to continue going down. Usually I use the MACD, but hidden divergences are easier to spot on stochastic or RSI. Hidden divergences confirm the prevailing trend. I want to see a close below 92 to confirm this chart.
My brokers don't offer Stratasys, they offer its competitor DDD, but I got my butt burned on that one. This is a paper trade.
SSYS break up of descending channelThis 3D printing stock was very hot during 2012 and 2013 but lost its luster in 2014 as investors are looking for major cap companies who pay high dividends. Even the leader 3D Systems pulled back 50% from its highs which tells us that price is very unstable and speculative in this revolutional sector.
Stock broke up descending channel at $90-$92 with ignited bull candle and regained some moving averages. I like idea playing cautch up here. Stop for active swing traders could be below $92. Entry above previous high at $95.85 with target at $105 where 200EMA sits.
