MEG Energy MEG-T (Wednesday’s close $21.70) traded in a large horizontal trading range mostly between $3 and $11 from 2016 to 2021 (dashed lines). It had a breakout from this range and reached a high of $24.47 in June (A) but was quite extended and far above the 40-week Moving Average (40wMA) at that time.
The stock had a correction to support near $14.50 (B) and now appears ready to resume the uptrend (C); a sustained rise above $21-22 would confirm it.
Behaviour indicators including the rising 40wMA and the rising trendline (solid line) confirm the bullish status. There is good support near $18.00-18.50; only a sustained decline below this level would be negative.
A sustained rise above $21-22 would support Point & Figure targets of $25 and $27. Potentially higher targets are visible.
