Warren Buffet Head And Shoulders: An Ugly Signal For The Oracle Berkshire Hathaway Inc. $BRK.B, Warren Buffet's company has an ugly head and shoulder pattern forming on the daily chart.

Time for a test... lets hope it is positive... Accumulation up... check... MoMo up... check... major trend line test... check... For the past year every time it has hit this line it bounces... will we get confirmation today? If so I am adding to my position... Concerns around EMA lower than usual on tests... and Stoch looks negative...
