January 17 Chart of the Day - Bank of America
Precision oriented price action technical analysis by far provides the best edges and most setups for traders and investors across the markets so that's what we use for the basis of our reviews
Bank of America Corp (BAC) reported strong net income of $6.7 billion for Q4 yesterday, with an EPS of $0.82, indicating solid financial performance.
The company achieved revenue growth across all categories year-over-year, with a notable 15% increase in total revenue compared to Q4 2023.
Makes sense that during a time of rising interest rates that a bank's revenue would go up doesn't it? So we wanted to review their chart from a price action technical analysis perspective.
Their stock is up over 80% since since we first featured them back in May 2023. Don't you wish you followed us then?

Monthly Chart
On the monthly chart we can see that after setting its $55.08 all time high (ATH) back in 2006 price fell dramatically and swiftly during the global financial crisis all the way down to $2.53.
Since then, price has made a remarkable comeback carving out a long volatile series of higher highs and higher lows (an uptrend).
Weekly Chart
On the weekly chart we can see with much more clarity the fall from ATHs, and the relentless and wild price swings both up and down.
On the way down price consistently made lower highs and lower lows until it didn't...
Trading around $46.70 earlier today price may have a big upcoming decision to make in the form of previous support/resistance and a long term downward sloping trend line.
Seemingly, the $50 level appears to be a key level as if price can break above and hold it then ATHs or even higher could be the next up. However, if price can't find its way through all that then it may want to fade back to the $40 or lower area.
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.
Only time will tell for sure what price will do next...
