Monthly Chart
On the monthly chart, we can see where price reached its all time high of $208.70 before pulling back sharply to the $145 area.
That retreat had both investors and traders closely watching key support levels, which have held for now, as price seemingly has a decision to make regarding its next move.
This kind of movement highlights why a cautious and well-informed approach is essential when evaluating a stock’s short to mid term outlook.
Weekly Chart
On the weekly chart, we can see where price reached its all time high before dropping rapidly the past several weeks.
It moved through what many viewed as key support levels with surprising ease, and now may want to test a multi year trend line even lower.
Why then when a company makes ATHs can price quickly drop back down?
For a variety of reasons including maybe this was a case of traders and investors taking some profits off the table.
Regardless, it's clear to see that for more than ten years price has been making a series of higher highs and higher lows /aka/ an uptrend.
It goes without saying though, the only guarantee in the markets is that price cycles. It cycles up and it cycles down across all time frames and all charts and rarely, if ever, moves in a straight line.
