A Moving Average Line describes the price trend of a stock over a specific period of time. For example; 10-days, 50-days or 200-days. Moving averages aid in market timing as well as the monitoring of performance. The length of the reference period used to calculate a moving average determines its usefulness with respect to time frames and investment objectives. WINK shows a notable negative divergence from the 200-day moving average line of greater than 30%. If lack of demand for the stock or selling pressure continues, this is indication of long-term weakness. WINK ranks among the top of the market for momentum as implied by a recent break above the 50-Day Moving Average Line of more than 25%. Investor demand has recently pulled the stock to the top of its ten week range. The 50-day line is a reliable intermediate-term indicator, but the greater the divergence from this line, the more profits there are to be had for short-term players. Imminent selling pressure from profit taking could soon pull WINK downward. If the stock does consolidate, watch for decreasing volume and volatility as indication of strength in its current trend. Also, watch for WINK to hold above the 50-day line as confirmation that the current uptrend remains intact. A break above the 10-Day Moving Average Line implies that WINK has been under accumulation recently. Be advised that the greater the divergence from this technical indicator, the more profits there are to be had for momentum players and short-term investors. This means that a brief consolidation or pullback on profit taking may follow any moves higher from these current levels. If the stock is below its 50 or 200-day moving average line, but above the 10-day line, this is a sign of short-term strength and signals growing momentum. If this positive divergence occurs on heavy relative volume, a trend reversal might be underway. However, if WINK is significantly above all three of these moving average lines, the stock is exhibiting a bullish uptrend with both short and long-term strength. Market timing (in any scenario) requires thorough analysis of a stock's relationship to its moving average lines. Considering other indicators in conjunction with moving average lines is recommended. 10 Day Moving Average 50 Day Moving Average 200 Day Moving Average The above report is based on mathematical calculations and, as such, no investment decision should be based solely on its conclusions.
