UnitedHealth Group Inc (NYSE:UNH) is Facing Resistance
Analysts are looking for exceptional growth from UnitedHealth Group Inc (NYSE:UNH) in the coming quarter and year, and if they are right valuation levels are going to look better, but for those of us who focus on price something very important is also happening. The shares are testing a level of resistance and if the shares fail to break above these resistance levels they will likely fall right back down towards longer term support again. We consider the tests of resistance that are happening now to be important inflection levels and we would use them to guide trading decisions accordingly, and as risk controls appropriately.
