It looks like Ligand Pharmaceuticals isn't currently at a very decisive point in regards to support/resistance levels. But let's also consider momentum! Ligand Pharmaceuticals has had a nice run over the last year and provided good returns to shareholders. Over the previous year, the Biotechnology company has grown 88.69 percent which isn't too bad. LGND might find some support at the 71 level, buyers might push the price back up from here. But it's not very clear what will happen.

RSI | 3mo S-momo ?
Smooth Momentum is our proprietary technical indicator that looks for momentum with the greatest consistency and steady velocity.
We have penalized dramatic swings and fluctuations. If the momentum is too high and an asset spikes upward, this is often unreliable and collapses back down.
But the smoothed momentum provides the highest probability of continuing into the near future with the same directional rate of change. Several complex factors are weighted by neural nets to maximize probabilistic accuracy.
It works the same with positive or negative directions.

6mo S-momo | 1yr S-momo | Resistance ?
Support and Resistance levels are determined by previous high and low points. You may be familiar with traders drawing lines across charts where several peaks or valleys occur in the same range.
This helps us understand the trading range of an asset where the market doesn't perceive it to be worth more or less than a certain price level.
When it nears the boundaries of this range the probability of reversal can increase. Our neural nets create scores for this measure based on
many factors such as the frequency, recency, size, consistency, etc of previous reversal points.
