Some investors look to trends to help forecast where they believe a stock could trade at a certain point in the future. Looking at Carvana, an investor could make an assessment about a stock's long term prospects using a moving average and trend line. If they believe a stock will remain above the moving average, which many believe is a bullish signal, they can extrapolate that trend into the future using a trend line. For Carvana, the 200-day moving average sits at $60.63, according to Benzinga Pro, which is below the current price of $106.24. For more on charts and trend lines, see a description here.
