In a previous post, dated March 6, 2014, it was pointed out that municipal high yield bond fund PRFHX had broken above a rising resistance line (upper channel line) on a 1-year chart and also appeared to be overbought. In the chart below, it appears that PRFHX has tested this previous resistance line (upper blue line) and that it may now act as support. Also, overbought conditions, shown by the Relative Strength Index (RSI) on the lower portion of the same graph, have been alleviated a bit.

PRFHX: 1yr | daily | semi-log
Taking a bigger picture view, the 5-year daily chart below shows that PRFHX still faces longer-term resistance (gently rising red line) going back to the 2010-2011 time frame.

PRFHX : 5 yr | daily | semi-log
Going forward, it will be interesting to see if the new shorter-term support line (upper blue line) will continue to hold and if PRFHX can break above the red resistance line. We shall see relatively soon as these lines are converging quickly.
