Note how the stock has only occasionally tagged the 50-day moving average. Back in November through January 2013, the trend was so strong that it completely ignored this key moving average. But since that time, we’ve seen only three instances when DPZ has hit the 50-day moving average. Buying any of those pullbacks would have been a real money maker.

Well, the most recent buy point was on Monday the stock fell below the 50-day moving average and tested $56. Now, with the stock up at $58.75,, there’s still time to buy if you’re interested in holding the stock for a while. The stock is fairly priced, with a growth rate of 27%, and a P/E of 27. That’s a good value on a stock that’s trending higher.

If you do choose to buy,l just keep a stop beneath $55. If your stop is hit, then the stock is probably going to pull back even more.
