When the stock market trends higher, it doesn't necessarily mean all stocks are moving higher. This is why it's necessary to have a method to filter through the day's market action and select stocks or securities to trade that have the potential for a decent return. And since each trader is different and each trading day is different, it's a good idea to develop various scans that identify securities to trade.
Once you've developed your scans, it's good to get in the habit of running a few of them every day. This can be for several reasons—are your scans still working the way they were designed? Are you getting very few results or too many results? Each day you run the scan, it produces different results, some of which may raise eyebrows. For example, on June 21, one of the stocks that came up in the StockCharts Technical Rank (SCTR) scan was Wynn Resorts Ltd. (WYNN).
During the pandemic, casino stocks suffered, and those with exposure to Macau felt the pain for an even longer period. With China reopening, you'd expect casino stocks like WYNN to recover. But the general thought is that the recovery was priced in, and the stock is due for a pullback.
Earlier this month, Wynn was downgraded by a couple of analysts. So when the stock was one that popped up in the SCTR scan results list, it's worth focusing on the stock and analyzing it more closely.
The Big Picture: Analyzing the Leisure Industry
It may be worth doing a top-down analysis for WYNN stock. Let's start by looking at the hotel, restaurant, and leisure industry by analyzing the S&P 500 Hotels, Restaurants & Leisure Industry index ($GSPHRL). The weekly chart (click on the chart below for live version) shows that the index has been trending higher since October 2022. But it looks like it's reaching a high, which could be a resistance level for the industry. The question is whether the index will break to the upside and reach new highs.

CHART 1: STARTING FROM THE TOP. An analysis of the weekly chart of the S&P 500 Hotels, Restaurants & Leisure industry ($GSPHRL) shows that this group of stocks is trending higher. However, it is pretty close to its high. Will it bust through its highs and move higher?

The index is trading above its 50-, 100-, and 200-week simple moving average (SMA). For as long as people are spending more on discretionary items such as travel and leisure, this index could continue to move higher. But inflation is still a huge concern, and if consumers start cutting back on spending, this index could reverse quickly. So if you are considering investing in WYNN, analyzing $GSPHRL would be your starting point.
A Weekly Perspective of WYNN
Looking at the weekly chart of WYNN, you see that the stock has had its share of ups and downs. Although the stock has been trending higher since October 2022, it's had a tough time breaking above $116.90. Plus, there have been a series of lower highs since 2020.
Adding the 50-week and 100-week SMA to the weekly chart shows that the 50-week is crossing above the 100-week SMA. And that's after the stock has pulled back and bounced off its 200-week SMA. The SMA crossover and WYNN's stock bouncing off its 200-week SMA are positive signs.

CHART 2: WEEKLY CHART OF WYNN RESORTS. The stock looks to be trending higher but it has to reverse its lower highs pattern to move higher.

If the stock breaks above its $116.90 resistance, it could go as high as $151, the January 2020 high. That's about a $35 move, or almost a 30% move. If that happened, it would reverse the "lower highs" scenario. What are the chances of that happening? To answer that question, let's turn to the daily chart...
