The American company that produces office furniture and equipment, and home furnishings, Herman Miller, Inc. (NASDAQ: MLHR) seems to be gearing up for a surge as per its latest charts.
Bullish Indications
#1 Channel Breakout: The daily chart shows that the stock had formed a trend channel in the last few months. This is marked as purple color lines. Currently, the stock has broken out from the upper rail of this trend channel. Once the stock breaks out of a channel, it usually moves higher.
#2 Price above MAs: The price is currently above both the short-term moving average of 50-day SMA and the longer-term moving average of 200-day SMA. This usually implies a possible bullish bias for the stock.
#3 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.
#4 %K above %D: The %K line of the stochastic is currently above the %D line in the daily chart, indicating possible bullishness.
#5 Bullish ADX and DI: The ADX indicator shows bullishness in the daily chart because the (+DI) line and the ADX line is greater than (-DI), and ADX has started to move up from below (-DI) and (+DI).
#6 Ascending Triangle Pattern Breakout: In the weekly chart, we can see that the stock has currently broken out of an ascending triangle pattern. This pattern is marked in the chart in pink color. An ascending triangle pattern is a strong bullish pattern and a breakout from it indicates that the stock may move higher in the short term.
#7 MACD above Signal Line: The MACD line (blue color) is currently above the signal line (orange color) in the weekly chart as well, indicating a bullish bias.
#8 Bullish ADX and DI: The ADX indicator shows bullishness in the weekly chart because (+DI) line is greater than (-DI).
#9 Bullish Stoch: In the weekly chart as well, the %K line of the stochastic is above the %D line, indicating overall bullishness.
Recommended Trade (based on the charts)
Buy Levels: If you want to get in on this trade, the ideal entry level for MLHR is above the price of $35.
TP: Our target prices are $40 and $45 in the next 3-6 months.
SL: To limit risk, place a stop loss at $32.40. Note that this stop loss is on a closing basis.
Our target potential upside is nearly 14% to 29% in the next 3-6 months.

In other words, this trade offers nearly 2x to 4x more potential upside than downside.
Risks to Consider
The stock may reverse its overall trend if it breaks down with high volume from the channel breakout level and ascending triangle pattern breakout level. 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!
