April 25 Chart of the Day - DexCom Inc.

Precision oriented price action technical analysis by far provides the best edges and most setups for traders across the markets so that's what we use for the basis of our reviews.

DexCom, Inc. (DXCM) develops, manufactures, produces, and distributes continuous glucose monitoring systems for diabetes management. 

The company reports earnings today after market close and with so many other "big name companies" reporting this week we also wanted to review DexCom from a price action technical analysis perspective.

Monthly Chart 

DexCom monthly price action technical analysis review


On the monthly chart we can see price is rising towards some potential overhead resistance and perhaps a "last chance for the bears" in the form of a 78.6% Fibonacci retracement and previous support/resistance before potentially testing $164.86 all time highs (ATH) set in late 2021.

We can also see that price recently broke out and upwards from a wedge pattern formation on this chart which is a bullish sign.

Trading around $136 earlier today we can see that price has been making a series of higher highs and higher lows during the past seven months or so.

Weekly Chart

DexCom weekly price action technical analysis review

 
On the weekly chart we can see with much more clarity the recent wedge breakout.  The question remains whether or not price will continue up or retrace for a possible back test of the wedge formation.

Price seemingly is waiting for earnings as a catalyst for its next move.

In the meantime, we've also layered in Fibonacci levels in both directions to use as potential levels of interest and/or future price targets.
