Analyzing the price chart for Gentex (NASDAQ:GNTX) has revealed a potential bearish inside day candle pattern. Yesterday's price range of $18.36 and $18.75 is within the prior day's high and low of the day. This trading action often signifies indecision by bulls and bears to drive prices higher or lower and often implies a possible change in trend. Owners of Gentex may want to consider a possible hedge in the event a pullback occurs. Look for confirmation in the next few trading days.

In the past 52 weeks, Gentex share prices have been bracketed by a low of $14.38 and a high of $35.35 and closed yesterday at $18.75, 30% above that low price. Over the last five market days, the 200-day moving average (MA) has gone down 0.4% while the 50-day MA has advanced 0.6%.
