$VRTX Overbought - Shooting Star Confirmed

23 Jan 2019

VRTX Overbought - beginning to retrace today closing well below yesterday's low, confirming bearish shooting star reversal candle from yesterday. Will be looking for additional 8-10% downside from today's close to the area of the 200d ema near term. (More downside possible depending on outcome of Feb ER)

Target: $170-$175 range by mid February

Also of note, in fundamental news...Vertex just announced today they have terminated their COO/interim CFO as "the result of personal behavior that violated Vertex's Code of Conduct and values" - possibly more fuel to power this latest downward move. Expect a gap down at the open tomorrow morning.
