This Stock Looks Poised for a Break Out

Futu Holdings Ltd (NASDAQ: FUTU) seems to be poised for a price surge as per its latest charts. Futu Holdings Limited operates as a holding company in digitized brokerage and wealth management platform in China, Hong Kong, the United States, and internationally.

Bullish Indications

#1 Falling Wedge Pattern Breakout: As you can see from the daily chart, the stock was trading within a falling wedge pattern during the past few months. This is marked in the daily chart in pink color. A Falling Wedge Pattern is a bullish pattern. Once the stock moves up and breaks out from it, it has the potential to move further up. Currently, the stock has broken out of the falling wedge pattern, which is a bullish sign.
