Rocket Daily Chart Analysis

• The stock has been pushing lower for most of the year in what technical traders call a falling wedge pattern.
• The price has been getting squeezed in the wedge pattern and looks to be nearing the beginning of the end of the pattern. A few more months and there won’t be much more room for the stock to move within the pattern and will likely see a breakout.
• The stock trades below both the 50-day moving average (green) and the 200-day moving average (blue), indicating the stock is likely in a period of bearish sentiment.
• Each of these moving averages may hold as a possible area of resistance in the future.
• The Relative Strength Index (RSI) has been pushing lower the past few weeks and now sits at 37. This shows the stock is seeing more selling pressure than it is buying pressure and is nearing the oversold range.
