Shorting opportunity with 2 head an shoulders!
On the Daily chart the rsi has a bearish divergence on both previous peaks indicating that the bulls are losing steam. On top of that the rsi even forms a head and shoulders aswell .
38.4 seems to have been an historical resistance in the summer of 2016.
However, judging from the MACD I don't think there is enough momentum to push it down through 36.6 this coming week,
so I believe the price action may form a head and shoulders and then with a more favorable MACD to provide the right time to short , especially if the RSI crosses the 50 EMA
I may miss the opportunity to short by waiting for the right shoulder to form but owell. a 1.5 risk to reward scenario

Elliott Wave View: An Impulsive Rally in Bausch Health (BHC)Elliott Wave View in Bausch Health (BHC) suggests the rally from June 4 low (20.28) unfolded as a 5 waves impulse Elliott Wave structure. Up from 20.28, wave (1) ended at 21.9 and wave (2) pullback ended at 20.8. The stock then resumes the rally higher in wave (3) towards 25.85, and wave (4) pullback ended at 24.61. Finally, the stock ended wave (5) of ((1)) at 25.9.
The stock is now correcting cycle from June 4 low within wave ((2)). Wave ((2)) pullback should unfold in the sequence of 3, 7, or 11 swing. The current pullback is proposed to unfold as a double zigzag Elliott Wave structure. Down from 25.9, wave (A) ended at 24.64 as a diagonal structure. Expect a bounce in wave (B) then another leg lower in wave (C) as another 5 waves before wave ((2)) pullback is complete. We don’t like selling the stock and expect dips to continue finding support in 3, 7, or 11 swing as far as pivot at June 4 low (20.28) stays intact.
Watch Consolidation Breakout in BHC.TOWatching for a consolidation breakout in Bausch.
With the market downturn, I haven't taken many long trades lately. But this one popped up on the screener the other day. It is consolidation near a recent high. Prior patterns like this have seen the price run higher... if it breaks the consolidation to the upside.
Expected profit is roughly 20%, while downside risk is about 5% (4:1 reward:risk).
Disclosure: Not long yet. Want to see a break higher, out of the consolidation, preferably on a high volume day.
BHC (Formerly VRX) has printed a long-term CnH and a Leading Diagonal. This Chart shows the three possible targets starting from the Fib 0.618 extension of wave 1-3, to the Top Rail of the Leading Diagonal , to the Target of the Cup n Handle. Please DYODD. I am holding Oct 19 $24 Calls which are currently over 100% up.
BHC-Using this as an illustration of my Swing Trade Strategy using EWT. EWT is great with counting the waves. To benefit from an accurate count, one must know how to use the wave count. I have used the EW as a tool to help me with my swing trading. I endeavor to buy calls at the end of wave 2 &4 (or beginning of wave 1,3&5) and exit my positions (take profits at the end of wave 1,3,&5 (or beginning of wave 2&4). I have been exceedingly successful with BHC. Of course those who have been following my BHC chart (formerly VRX) knows that I have charted a leading diagonal. Looking at this chart, there is a lot of room to run. For those who are interested in getting in, look for the wave 2 correction to end before getting in. Of course, if you are into shorting, this is probably the right time to buy puts. All the best.
BHC.TO Recent Long TriggerBHC recently broke out of a consolidation after putting in a rounded bottom. This pattern has played out three times over the last year, moving about 20%+ over the former high. This trade takes advantage of that same pattern with a target just under 20% away from the entry and a reward:risk of about 3.5:1.
