United Airlines has been going sideways for 2-1/2 years, but now it may be getting ready for takeoff.
The first pattern on today’s chart is the series of higher lows over the past month as prices remained below November 11's closing price. The result was an ascending triangle that UAL escaped yesterday.
Next, Bollinger Band Width narrowed last week to its tightest reading since the coronavirus pandemic. That could give it potential for prices to expand.
Moving averages could also give some signals. Notice how the short-term 8-day exponential moving average (EMA) has remained above the 21-day EMA since mid-October. (Shown on this chart by our 2 MA Ratio custom script.) The longer-term 50-day simple moving average (SMA) is also nearing a potential “golden cross” above the 200-day SMA.
