Pfizer Inc. (PFE) reported better-then-expected earnings on April 30, and shares of the pharmaceutical giant responded with an upside move. However, the stock is under a "澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:death cross"🍨 on its daily chart and still trades under a negative weekly chart.

Pfizer is a component of the Dow Jones Industrial Average and is one of the eight members of the "澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Dogs of the Dow" for 2019. The company has a 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:P/E ratio of 13.19 with a 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:dividend yield of 3.55%, according to Macrotrends. Pfizer shares closed Wednesday, May 1, at $40.77, down 14.1% year to date and up 18.6% from the low of $34.37 posted on May 4, 2018.

The daily chart for Pfizer 

The daily chart for Pfizer shows that a "death cross" was confirmed on April 22, when the 50-day 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:simple moving average fell below the 200-day simple moving average, indicating thaജt lower prices lie ahead. Under thi🌟s warning, the strategy is to sell strength to the 200-day simple moving average, now at $42.33.

The close of $43.65 on Dec. 31 was input to my proprietary analytics and resulted in a semiannual pivot $41.49 and an annual risky level at﷽ $48.44. The close on March 29 at $42.47 was an input that generated a quarterl♈y risky level at $43.55. The close of $40.61 on April 30 resulted in a monthly risky level at $44.37.

The weekly chart for Pfizer

The weekly chart for Pfizer is negative, with the stock below its five-week modified moving average of $41.73. The stock is above its 200-week simple moving average, or "澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:reversion to the mean," at $35.72. The 12 x 3 x 3 weekly slow 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:stochastic reading is projected to🗹 fall to 42.90 this week, down from 49.15 on April 26. 

Trading strategy: Buy Pfizer shares on weakness to the 200-week simp🍒le moving average at $35.72 and reduce holdings on strength to the semiannual, quartꦬerly and monthly risky levels at $41.49, $43.55 and $44.37, respectively.

How to use my value levels and risky levels: Value levels and risky levels are based upon the last nine weekly, monthly, quarterly, semiannual and annual closes. The first set of levels was based upon the closes on Dec. 31. The original semiannual and annual levels remain in pܫlay. The weekly level changes each week; the monthly level was changed atﷺ the end of January, February, March and April. The quarterly level was changed at the end of March.

My theory is that nine years of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:volatility between closes are enough to assume that all possible bullish or bearish events for the stock are factored iꦦn. To capture share price volatility, investors should buy shares on ⛦weakness to a value level and reduce holdings on strength to a risky level. A pivot is a value level or risky level that was violated within its time horizon. Pivots act as magnets that have a high probability of being tested again before their time horizon expires.
