Technically, an incomplete rising wedge pattern makes the share attractive as an investment opportunity (see the burgundy converging trendlines on the main chart as well as the insert). It is a topping pattern where the price eventually breaks down. The expectation is for the price to progress to the upper range of this pattern.

According to the RSI (Relative Strength Index), the stock will be overbought at ~$200. This classifies our profit target of $185 as realistic.

We suggest a low at-risk allocation for this trade.
