    Over the course of the past nine months, AMCR has formed a key level of resistance in the $11 (red) area. The stock has tested that $11 level several times since the end of last year, and a solid close above that mark should lead to higher prices for AMCR.

    Keep an eye on next week on August 18, as AMCR reports earnings before the bell.

    Have a good trading day!

    Good luck!
