TJX Watch

TJX Companies Inc. (TJX), the clothing retails whose best-known stores are T.J. Maxx and Marshalls, has moved to bull phase on three key signals after bouncing off of the 12-month moving average in a long-running uptrend.

TJX $43.73

The macd and Person's Proprietary Signal moved into bull phase today, joining the parabolic sar, which is in its third day of a bull run.

The price remains below the 20-day simple moving average, and a push above that level ($43.25) would be strong confirmation that rise had legs.

On the three-month chart, TSX hit a swing high of $48.50 in April and has since traced a gentle decline, hitting the chart low of $40.93 on July 8.

The stock has been trading flat for three days running, and I would like to see some higher highs day by day before opening a position in my accounts.
