Sell signal fades in its 10th week
Virgin Galactic drops 7.2% as sellers retake control, even as the decline loses steam
Our view last week
Virgin Galactic stock climbs 7.1% this week, with a daily bounce off its 20-day moving average: a touch in the 2.8 area and a 17% rebound. Buyers dominate 76% of the volume, but our technical analysis flags an indecisive weekly candle and a strong distribution phase underneath the surface. Money flow stays negative, though lighter than a week ago. The sell signal is in its 9th week, and the short remains up 6.7%.
This week's summary
Virgin Galactic stock: the week closes down 7.2%, with sellers back in control at 71% of volume after last week's bounce. The daily sequence of higher lows still holds, but an ongoing distribution phase cools the enthusiasm. Our sell signal, in its 10th week, shows signs of fading in this swing trading setup; the short position remains in double-digit profit.
