Yahoo! (YHOO) has been trending higher for more than a year, breaking out from $16 last October to the current price of $38. Notice how each pullback or sideways drift that hit the 50-day moving average resulted in buying interest that pushed the stock higher. This trend is continuing and today’s 4.32% advance occurred on heavy volume.

Still, traders who study charts will see that the stock is high above the 50-day moving average to an extent that has led to pullbacks or consolidations in the trend. A prudent trader would watch this stock and wait for the stock to move closer to the 50-day moving average before taking some stock. Pullbacks are still buying opportunities.

Carpe diem.
