Setup Rating and Analysis

8

GRA has an excellent technical rating and also presents a decent setup pattern. We see reduced volatility while prices have been consolidating in the most recent period. There is a resistance zone just above the current price starting at 70.00. Right above this resistance zone may be a good entry point. There is a support zone below the current price at 69.92, a Stop Loss order could be placed below this zone. We notice that large players showed an interest for GRA in the last couple of days, which is a good sign. Very recently a Pocket Pivot signal was observed. This is another positive sign.

  • Behavior of large players is measured by the Effective Volume indicator. This indicator inspects the 1 minute timeframe looking for high volume transactions.
  • A Pocket Pivot is a price/volume accumulation pattern. A Pocket Pivot occurs when price moves up with volume higher than the maximum down volume registered in the previous 10 days.
