We assign a technical rating of 6 out of 10 to IWC. IWC has been an average performer in the overall market. Recently some decent action could be observed, but in the medium term time frame this is still negative.
The long term trend is still neutral, but the short term trend is positive, so the stock is getting more and more appreciated by traders and investors.
IWC is currently showing a bull flag pattern! A bull flag pattern occurs when prices pull back slightly after a strong rise up. This may be a nice opportunity for an entry.
Considerably lower volume is observed in the last couple of days, which is a good thing during a pullback.

IWC is currently trading in the middle of its 52 week range. The S&P500 Index however is trading in the upper part of its 52 week range, so IWC is lagging the market slightly.
IWC has an average technical rating and also the quality of the setup is only medium at the moment. Price movement has been a little bit too volatile to find a nice entry and exit point. It is probably a good idea to wait for a consolidation first.
