VERIZON COMMUNICATION (VZ): Reversal Clues
hey traders,
it looks like the breakout above the previous structure high in December was false!
the market was trading about 1 week above 61.0 resistance and then dropped.
Now it looks like the market is forming a classic reversal pattern - head and shoulders pattern.
currently, the price is completing the right shoulder.
I suggest setting the alert below the neckline level.
Being broken it gives us a perfect selling opportunity.
key levels will be 55.55 / 53.0
