Technically. The securities firm said that JCI had exited wave 5 previously, so it extended wave 3 with wave 4 forming at the 5850 level and is currently testing wave 5 with the first ideal target at 161.8%. Fibonacci retracement at around 6,400.

So JCI still has the potential to test the 6400 target even though the MACD stochastic overbought signal appears to cross the positive movement of the histogram. JCI has the potential to continue to strengthen at the beginning of the week with support and resistance at 6,200-6,320.
