F bear signal

Ford Motor Co., F, shows a psar bear signal today and is trading 6.8% below yesterday's close.

The signal is confirmed by the sto, which has dropped from overbought to netural, and a declining, though still bullish, macd.

F $13.55

The adx, at 36, is at a level where whipsaws are unlikely. And in the past three months the shortest psar stretch for F has been six trading days.


You are here:
  • Reversal
    • $14.54, +7.3%
  • Now $13.55
  • Reversals
    • $12.75, -5.9%
    • $11.40, -15.9%
    • $11.15, -17.7%
    • $10.49, -22.6%
    • $10.41, -23.1%
    • $10.05, -25.8%
    • $9.63, -28.9%
The reversals are broadly spaced on the downside, a good thing.

And the move is counter-trend, a reversal from the runup that began last December at $19.63.

I would want to see a higher high and low from today's trading, and then a lower high and low for confirmation of a new trend before I entered a trade.

This signal will be followed in the daily Watchlist, which is posted beginning around 2:45 p.m. Eastern. Look for it at www.timbovee.com.
