Looking at a daily chart, Nielsen's stock price has just broken to the upside of a short-term falling wedge pattern that began to form in early-June. The RSI appears to be turning up and is currently sitting above the 50 median level which indicates bullish momentum. Price is expected to continue to rise until it reaches its first resistance level at $16.00. Look for a move towards $17.50 to complete the measured move of the wedge pattern. If price breaks below $13.75 support then we may see the stock continue to fall inside the bearish trend channel towards $11.75.
