Near-term uptrend for RBC: Can it break $52.00?
Chart for the Royal Bank of Canada shows the near-term uptrend with resistance at the 200-day simple moving average of $52.00. If the stock can break and hold above $52.00 for two days, this point will become the new support level. The reversal of roles from resistance to support or support to resistance is an important concept in technical analysis.
