Conclusion, Investment Implications, Strategy
Northern Trust Corporation (NTRS) appears to be resuming its late March advance following about 10 weeks of sideways investor indecision. A sustained rise above the upper boundary of the indecision area, currently near $83.87, would target an eventual, additional 27% rise to $107.50 per share. This is an Asbury Momentum idea.

Chart 1 below plots NTRS daily since November 2019 and shows that price is currently breaking out higher from about 10 weeks of sideways investor indecision from the late March lows. A sustained rise above the upper boundary of the indecision area, currently near $83.87, would target an eventual, additional 27% rise to $107.50 per share.
Table 1 below shows that, considering the aforementioned upside target and a protective stop placed below the $80.36 area, a long entry price of $84.35 would provide a 1:5.8 risk/reward ratio (risking $1.00 to make $5.8) with an initial risk of 4.7%.
