Earnings season presents so many opportunities, especially during a secular bull market advance. We appear to have another one of those advances underway and the daily opportunities are increasing. The difference between a breakout and a failed breakout, however, many times comes down to one simple number – the closing price. CrowdStrike Holdings, Inc. (CRWD) will be a perfect example today. Software ($DJUSSW) has been very strong and CRWD is nearing a 9-month relative high, which will likely be cleared if CRWD can negotiate price resistance at the close today:
Adding to the bullishness here is the cup with handle continuation pattern. A breakout of this pattern would measure another 50 bucks higher to the 335-340 area.
That’s enough potential to have me watching CRWD closely into today’s close.
