F - approaching strong resistance

Whilst the broader market saw more micro chop, there was significant strength in Ford (F), which settled higher by 2.7% @ $15.55. Next key resistance is the 15.75/16.00 zone, where the 200dma is lurking, along with the pre-snap price cluster area of late September.


F, daily


Summary

The daily close last Thursday above the 50dma was a significant bullish victory, but far more important.. the 200dma..and the $16 threshold... which was where the downside snap began from.

Until we see at least a few daily closes above $16, Ford remains a broken stock.

With the loss of the Feb' low in October, there is still threat of another wave lower to $12.

*Unquestionably, Ford is better positioned than GM or the still largely irrelevant TSLA. Long term outlook for Ford looks fine. It survived the 2008/09 collapse wave, it'll no doubt survive the next financial crisis.
