Disney Reverses Downtrend

Intermediate-term statistical analysis shows Walt Disney entering an intermediate-term uptrend.
Position: N/A
| Figure 1 below shows the daily price bars of Disney (DIS) in the bottom window. The top window shows the linear regression slope Indicator and the middle window, the R-squared indicator. |
|
| FIGURE 1: DIS, DAILY. This chart shows the daily price chart of Disney in the lower window along with its 50-day linear regression trendline and its associated channel lines. The top window shows the linear regression slope indicator followed by the R-squared indicator in the next lower window. |

| This figure shows that the linear regression slope indicator in the top window has crossed above its zero line to indicate a reversal in trend from an intermediate-term downtrend to an intermediate-term uptrend. |
| The R-squared indicator in the middle window shows it has crossed above the critical level to indicate a statistically significant trend. A statistically significant trend is one that has a 95% statistical confidence level of continuing. |
| The bottom window shows the daily price bars of DIS. This window also shows the 50-day linear regression trendline (blue line) along with the upper 1 sigma channel line (red dotted line), the upper 2 sigma channel line (solid red line), the lower 1 sigma channel (green dotted line), the lower 2 sigma channel line (solid green line), and the lower 3 sigma channel line (dashed green line). The red channel lines represent resistance lines and the green channel lines represent support. |
| In the bottom window, note that price broke out above the +3 sigma channel line five days ago, signaling a reversal in the intermediate-term trend from down to up. The reversal is complete once the linear regression slope indicator is above its zero line and the R-squared indicator has moved above its critical level. Thus, Figure 1 shows that Disney has now reversed its downtrend and has started a new intermediate-term uptrend. |
