On Nov. 6, HealthEquity stock surged nearly 10%, hitting new highs and breaking out further above an 88.26 buy point in a cup base.
Following a brief pullback to the 10-week line, shares are forming the right side of a cup base, per IBD MarketSurge chart analysis. The correct buy point is 105.82 and the stock is just 2% away from that entry, as shares rallied 1.4% Tuesday morning.
Bullishly, the relative strength line is hitting new highs ahead of the breakout. That triggers the RS line blue dot signal.
The RS Line Blue Dot feature combines the relative strength line with MarketSurge Pattern Recognition. When a stock's RS line hits a new high, while the stock is forming a base or breaking out, then the Blue Dot appears on the MarketSurge weekly or daily chart.
The RS line is the blue line on all IBD daily and weekly charts as well as in MarketSurge charts.
IBD readers should focus on stocks whose RS lines are hitting new highs during a stock's base formation or on the actual breakout. These stocks get institutional support during weak and strong market environments.
Another positive signal is that the current base formation is an early-stage base. Early-stage bases are more likely to net bigger gains than later-stage formations.
The IBD Stock Checkup shows that HealthEquity stock boasts a near-perfect 98 IBD Composite Rating, another bullish attribute.
