Ford Motor fell sharply over the summer, and now traders may think it will keep skidding lower.
The first pattern on today’s chart is the bearish gap on July 25 after earnings and revenue missed estimates. That potentially reflects concerns about its growth and profitability.
Next, F's 50-day simple moving average (SMA) had a “death cross” below the 200-day SMA the following month. That may suggest its longer-term trend has turned bearish.
Third is the pair of monthly highs around $11.28 in August and September. The resulting double top, below the pre-earnings lows, may suggest new resistance has developed below old support.
Next, the series of lower highs in the last three weeks has created a potential bearish descending triangle for the automaker.
Finally, the 8-day exponential moving average (EMA) is below the 21-day EMA and prices are below the 50-day SMA. Those patterns may reflect bearishness in the short and intermediate terms.
