In his Trading Room early this week, Mike Paulenoff wrote that Slack Technologies (WORK) looked poised to hold key near-term technical support at 29.50 off of its June 3 high at 40.78, and to turn up to challenge and take out key near-term resistance at 32.75-33.60.
Mike's analysis was informed by a combination of the chart and the potential impact of growing Coronavirus cases on demand for work-at-home technology platforms.
WORK was trading at 30.40 at the time of Mike's first writing (see chart below), and got up to a high of 34.67 this week before closing the week at 33.13.

Mike wrote: "My short answer: no, it is not yet time to sell (although I will never dissuade anyone from taking profits and from ringing the cash register).

On June 24, 2024, I posted the following chart-based commentary about PFE (Pfizer, Inc) to the MPTrader discussion room:PFE (Pfizer) has the right look of a setup that is on the verge of entering a central, bullish price thrust from within a December-June rounded bottom formation.
