Recommended Trade (based on the charts)

Buy Levels: If you want to get in on this trade, the ideal buy level for the shares of AXNX is if the stock corrects to the breakout level of ascending triangle pattern at around $30.00.

However, those with a higher risk appetite can purchase half the intended quantity of shares of AXNX if it trades above yesterday’s close at around $32.60.

TP: Our target prices are $40 and $45 based on the breakout from the Ascending Triangle pattern.

SL: To limit risk, place a stop loss near $27.80. Note that this stop loss is on a closing basis.

Our target potential upside is 23% to 50% in the next 3-5 months.

  • Entry at $32.60: For a risk of $4.80, the target rewards are $7.40 and $12.40. This is a nearly 1:2 and 1:3 risk-reward trade.
  • Entry at $30.00: For a risk of $2.20, the target rewards are $10.00 and $15.00. This is a nearly 1:5 and 1:7 risk-reward trade.

In other words, this trade offers nearly 2x to 7x more potential upside than downside.

Risks to Consider
The stock may reverse its overall trend if it breaks down with high volume from the ascending triangle pattern. The sell-off of the stock could also be triggered in case of any negative news, overall weakness in the market, or any regulatory changes in its sector.

Happy Trading!
