Found Support at 200-Day Average But Faces Overhead Supply - Monday, November 26, 2018
Healthequity Inc (HQY +$3.25 or +4.20% to $80.63) found support while recently sputtering near its 200-day moving average (DMA) line ($77.22) after damaging losses violated the prior low ($80.56 on 10/24/18) triggering a technical sell signal. A subsequent rebound above the 50 DMA line ($88.62) is needed for its outlook to improve. It now faces resistance due to overhead supply up to the $99 level.

It has a fairly small supply of only 62.3 million shares (S criteria) outstanding, which can contribute to greater price volatility in the event of institutional buying or selling. It currently has a Timeliness Rating of B and a Sponsorship Rating of B.
