Nucor Could Be Inching Toward a BreakoutMetal stocks have fought higher all quarter, and now a key steelmaker may be attempting a breakout: Nucor. The first pattern on today’s chart is the series of higher lows since late last month. NUE was stuck below $137 (the close of on October 26) for several weeks, which produced an ascending triangle. But prices broke out on November 10. Second is the summer peak around $146. The stock is approaching that level. A close above it could draw some buyers from the sidelines. Third, the recent consolidation took place above the 200-day simple moving average (SMA). That may suggest its longer-term trend is bullish. Speaking of longer-term trends, notice the higher lows in July and September versus January. Finally, MACD has been positive almost all quarter.

Ugly Top (s)Multiple tops with a recent Triple Top. Price is still above the Neckline which is strong support until broken. The neckline is usually drawn where the shoulders touch down before price goes up once again so the neckline has served as support on multiple occasions for NUE. Pattern valid with a break of the neckline and a confirmed downtrend. Some wait for the retest of the neckline as it is often retested after being broken. No recommendation. Short interest is around 3.25%. Short with a break of the neckline and a confirmed downtrend. No recommendation.

Head and shoulders bear flag Short $NueNucor was driving me nuts the last 3 months constantly setting all time highs (while the rest of the market bled out) when their last earnings had lowered guidance that would have crashed any other stock. Twice at new records I bought puts, but chickened out and sold early for losses when they kept rebounding back to new highs again. Anyways I saw the same options today worth a couple grand more than i sold for, and that’s with theta decay of short dated options. So I did some TA and belief the risk reward is still worth buying puts or shorting, especially if you catch it when it’s going up. So anyways, from a TA standpoint they are a little overextended and just finished an a 12345 motive wave and an ABC corrective wave pattern so the first couple leges could be choppy before the next drop, but it’s coming. The target of the bear flag was roughly the same as the head and shoulders: Analysts give it a fair price of $60, I have it crashing to $95 minimum(the measured target). Hopefully it goes further. Got myself some puts one more time, and as usual they are starting off up. I’m not going to paper hand this time. I believe in the TA. I respect the patterns. I trust the fundamentals will bring the price where it belongs.
