Northland Power (Friday’s close $29.51) traded in a large horizontal trading range mostly between $21 and $25 for about three years (dashed lines). The stock pierced the top of the trading range in 2019 and reached a high of $33.16 (A). It became extremely overbought at this time and pulled back temporarily below its 40-week Moving Average (40wMA – B) but then quickly resumed the up-trend (C).
Behaviour indicators including the rising 40wMA and the rising trend-line (solid line) confirm the bullish status. Only a sustained decline below $24-25 would be negative.
Point & Figure measurements provide targets of $36 and $39. The large trading range (dashed lines) supports higher targets.
