#3 MACD above Signal Line: As you can see from the daily chart, the MACD line (blue color) is currently above the signal line (orange color), indicating a bullish bias.
#4 Bullish ADX and DI: The ADX indicator shows bullishness because the (+DI) line and the ADX line are greater than the (-DI) line, and ADX has started to move up from below both (+DI) and (-DI).
#5 IH&S Pattern Breakout: As you can see from the weekly chart, the stock has been forming an Inverted Head and Shoulders (IH&S) pattern. This IH&S pattern is marked in the chart in purple color. An IH&S pattern is a strong bullish pattern and a breakout from it indicates that the stock may move higher in the short term. Currently, the stock has broken out of the IH&S pattern, indicating bullishness. The stock is also trading above its 50-week and 200-week SMA, indicating that the bulls are firmly in control.
