STEPAN CO (SCL)

Every week Tech Charts Global Equity Markets report features some of the well-defined, mature classical chart patterns under a lengthy watchlist and the chart pattern breakout signals that took place during that week. Global Equity Markets report covers single stocks from developed, emerging and frontier markets, ETF’s and global equity indices. The report starts with a review section that highlights the important chart developments on global equity benchmarks. This blog post features from the watchlist section an ascending triangle chart pattern opportunity, listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Stepan Company was featured before as part of Breakout Alerts when the stock completed the 28 month-long rectangle. However since then, price formed another sideways consolidation above the horizontal support (upper boundary of the rectangle). The chart pattern is possibly an ascending triangle (bullish continuation) that can resume the existing uptrend.

Below you can also find a short educational video explaining how several bullish chart patterns can form during a steady uptrend.

Stepan Company produces specialty and intermediate chemicals, which are sold to other manufacturers and used in a range of end products. The stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Price chart formed a 4 month-long ascending triangle with the horizontal boundary acting as strong resistance at 100.5 levels. The horizontal boundary was tested several times over the course of the chart pattern. A daily close above 102.0 levels will confirm the breakout from the 4 month-long ascending triangle with the possible chart pattern price target of 110.0 levels. Breakout can push the stock to all-time highs.
