Today’s stock of the day is General Motors, where the technical setup is clean and easy to read.
On the H1 chart, the stock remains in a downtrend. Within this trend, price action has formed a descending triangle. This pattern consists of a falling resistance line, marked with black lines, and a horizontal support marked in yellow.
This type of formation usually signals that a bigger move is coming. The only question is the direction.
The trading plan here is straightforward.
If the price breaks above the black downtrend line, that would be the first sign of strength and an invitation to go long. It would suggest that sellers are losing control and a reversal may be starting.
On the other hand, if the price breaks below the yellow horizontal support, that would confirm continuation of the downtrend and trigger a signal to go short.
At this point, the market is compressing inside the pattern. The breakout will likely decide the next move, so it’s worth watching closely.
