| MHR Stock Sees Many BuyersBy Energy Stock Channel Staff, Thursday, January 5, 11:28 AM ET
In trading on Thursday, shares of Magnum Hunter Resources Corp (NYSE:MHR) entered into overbought territory, changing hands as high as $5.97 per share. We define overbought territory using the Relative Strength Index, or RSI, which is a technical analysis indicator used to measure momentum on a scale of zero to 100. A stock is considered to be overbought if the RSI reading rises above 70. In the case of Magnum Hunter Resources Corp , the RSI reading has hit 70.7 — by comparison, the universe of energy stocks covered by Energy Stock Channel currently has an average RSI of 55.2, the RSI of WTI Crude Oil is at -1.0, and the RSI of Henry Hub Natural Gas is presently 41.1. Investors could look at MHR's 70.7 reading as a sign that the recent heavy buying is peaking which could mean shares are due for a pullback. Looking at a chart of one year performance (below), MHR's low point in its 52 week range is $2.33 per share, with $8.66 as the 52 week high point — that compares with a last trade of $5.96.
