FNM Watch

Fannie Mae (FNM) continues to trade a few cents above the Fibonacci 50% retracement level, at $1.21.

FNM $1.24

So far this week Fannie has been all motion and no progress.

The stock may be setting up for yet another hesitation mark. Monday and Tuesday showed wide trading ranges -- 7.5% and 2.5% respectively, but the open and close were identical.


Today's trading range so far has traversed -2.3% high to low.

The narrowing range of daily movement is consistent with the symmetrical triangle price pattern that has been building since April 12.

This is a continuation pattern that implies a 26¢ price rise from breakout at the apex.

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