Ford Motor has been conspicuously weak since the summer – despite months of the broader market attempting to rally. Now with anxiety spreading toward the economy and financial system, the automaker could be showing signs of continuing lower.
The main pattern on today’s chart is the series of lower highs since August. Each time, the stock has proceeded to hold roughly $11. The result is a descending triangle – a potentially bearish continuation pattern.
That $11 price area could be relevant because it was the level F held in April 2021, shortly before its big electric-vehicle push began.
Next, this chart includes our 2 MA Ratio custom script with the default settings of the 8- and 21-day exponential moving averages (EMAs). Notice how the relationship has remained in negative territory for most of the past month.
Finally, $11.75 could be viewed as a near-term threshold. That was the monthly low in February that F has been unable to reclaim. If prices remain below it, traders may look for a break of the longer-term support.
