The world’s largest publicly traded REIT focused on the ownership, operation, acquisition, and development of temperature-controlled warehouses, AmeriCold Realty Trust (NYSE: COLD) seems to be getting ready for a price bump in the short-term as per the latest charts.
Bullish Move – Chart Indications
#1 Falling Wedge Pattern: As you can see from the daily chart, the stock was forming a falling wedge pattern for the past several months. It had typically taken support at the bottom of the wedge before bouncing back. This pattern is marked in purple color. The stock currently looks poised for a breakout from the falling wedge pattern. A breakout from the wedge indicates that the stock may move higher.
#2 MACD above Signal Line: The daily chart shows that the MACD line (blue color) is currently above the MACD signal line (orange color). This is a possible bullish setup.
#3 Price above MAs: The price is currently above the short-term moving average of 50-day SMA as well as the longer-term moving average of 200-day SMA. This usually implies a possible bullish bias for the stock.
#4 Bullish ADX and DI: The ADX indicator shows bullishness because (+DI) is greater than (-DI), ADX and (+DI) are above (-DI), and ADX is moving up from below (-DI) and (+DI).
#5 Bullish Stoch: The %K line is above the %D line of the stochastic in the daily chart, indicating possible bullishness.
#6 Consolidation Area: The weekly chart shows that the stock has currently formed a consolidation area, and is trading within those levels. This is marked as a pink color rectangle. A breakout from a consolidation area would indicate that the stock would move higher.
#7 MACD above Signal Line: In the weekly chart as well, the MACD (light blue color) is currently above the MACD signal line (orange color). This indicates a possible bullish setup.
#8 Bullish Stoch: The %K line is above the %D line of the stochastic in the weekly chart as well, indicating possible bullishness.
Recommended Trade (based on the charts)
