Quick Charting the Nine Uptrending Dow Jones Stocks Breaking to New Highs

A quick scan of the Dow Jones Industrials (30) stocks reveals nine names in a strong uptrend breaking to new highs.

Let’s take a moment to highlight these stocks and compare their daily charts for possible trading candidates:

Using clean charting data from FinViz.com (one of my favorite trader websites), we see the uptrending and breakout candidates in the Dow Jones Industrial Average.

There’s a little something for everyone:

  • American Express (AXP) broke free of a sideways/horizontal trading range or channel
  • Pfizer (PFE) similarly broke free of a near-perfect symmetrical triangle
  • Boeing (BA) and MMM (MMM) continue to trade within tight yet strong rising parallel trendline channels
  • General Electric (GE) and Visa (V) also trade within wider rising parallel patterns
  • Disney (DIS) and Travelers (TRV) broke horizontal resistance trendlines

StockCharts presents similar chart-data in a different format:

Nevertheless, all stocks above recently broke to new chart highs and are thus on breakout watchlists as potential trading candidates, either on the breakout itself or on a future reaction/retracement opportunity.
