Stock Watch



FSLR

FSLR is forming a nice inverted head and shoulds pattern.  The neckline is right at the gap which makes the resistance even stronger.  FSLR has enjoyed a nice run so a sideways consolidation would be perfect here.  We should expect some kind of pullback or consolidation before pushing to much higher.
