After a higher open, it retreated nearly a $1.00 to $53.36 before continuing its move higher. So far, the ensuing rally has taken the issue $55.74. That's just shy of its August 2016 high of $56.19.

Since reaching that elevated level, Garmin's stock has drifted lower but has yet to make a new lows for session. If the issue breaches the session low, there may only be minor support points until the upper-end of Tuesday's range ($51.47).
