Shares of Nintendo (NTDOY) have an active weekly buy signal right now.

The first level the stock needs to hold is $26.22/share. That will keep this weekly reversal strategy signal active. Granted this signal will only be actionable for one more day.

The second level to watch is $24.44/share. This was last quarter's low. If the stock breaks below that level, shareholders may be in for a lot of pain as that would be a quarterly "inside bar and down" sell signal. Conversely, a breakout above $32.83/share would create a quarterly "inside bar and up" buy signal. A breakout above that level could push shares back to test last year's high of $38.25/share.

That is the technical setup for the stock today. Good luck trading, Shackers.

REVERSAL STRATEGY

A candlestick formation that occurs after an inside bar when a stock breaks out or below the previous period followed by a breakout of the range. In the case of Nintendo last week, the stock dipped one penny below the previous inside week's bar and then broke out above $26.22/share this week.
