When I reviewed Micron Technology’s chart back in March, I said it had some great potential to rise again and challenge higher prices. At that point, the 200 ma was looming overhead, and I knew that pushing through that level would be a challenge. Sure enough, the stock experienced a selloff, and it bottomed out in May. Since then, it has made a nice series of higher highs and higher lows.
Micron Breaks Out And Moves Up
The upward channel on the current chart has a steep price level slope, but since May, the stock has made an impressive move at each point. It currently sits above all of the moving averages, and I think we could see the late 2015 levels challenged, which were about 15% higher from the current price.
MACD has renewed a buy signal on impressive volume levels, which just keep moving higher on all the up sessions. Relative strength has reached a plateau, so we could see price come down a bit. If it does, we’re looking at another good buying chance.
