ESCO Technologies Inc. ESE has been struggling lately, but the selling pressure may end soon. This is because ESE recently saw a hammer chart pattern that may signal that the stock is approaching a bottom.
What is a hammer chart template?
A hammer chart pattern is a popular technical indicator used in candlestick charts. The hammer appears when a stock tumbles during the day, but then finds strength at some point in the session to close near or above its opening price. This forms a candlestick that resembles a hammer and may suggest that the market has found a low point in the action and better days are ahead.
Other factors
What’s more, earnings estimates have risen for this company, even despite sluggish trading lately. In the last 60 days alone, 1 estimate has increased, compared to none lower, while the consensus estimate has also moved in the right direction.
Estimates have actually risen so much that the title now has a Zacks # 2 (buy) rank, suggesting that this relatively unloved title may be breaking down soon. This will be especially true if the ESE action can gain momentum from here and find a way to continue higher than this encouraging business development.

Bitcoin, like the internet itself, could change everything
Blockchain and cryptocurrency have sparked one of the most exciting talking points in a generation. Some call it the “Internet of Money” and predict that it could change the way money works forever. If this is true, it could do to banks what Netflix did to Blockbuster and Amazon to Sears. Experts agree that we are in the early stages of this technology and as it develops it will create several investment opportunities.
Zacks just revealed 3 companies that can help investors capitalize on the explosive profit potential of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies with much less volatility than buying them directly.
