As you can see, the 50-day moving average happens to coincide with the top of a trading channel drawn from a high point last September. Both these technical tools currently show the $9.05 area as a significant level.

If XLF undergoes a decent pullback, short-term traders could try the long side with an upside target of $8.60 or better.

However, if the stock can manage to close above the $9.05 level a couple of times, there’s a good chance that the daily chart will trigger buy signals and we could see additional movement to the upside.
