The holding company of businesses providing integrated logistics solutions, ArcBest Corp (NASDAQ: ARCB) seem to be poised for a price surge as per its latest charts.

Bullish Indications

#1 Symmetrical Triangle Pattern Breakout: As you can see from the daily chart, the stock was forming a symmetrical triangle pattern during the past few weeks. This pattern is shown as purple color lines.

Once a breakout from the upper line occurs, it usually signifies the start of a new bullish trend. Currently, the stock has broken out of the symmetrical triangle pattern, which is a possible bullish sign.
