Honda Motor (NYSE:HMC) is a leading Japanese manufacturer of automobiles, motorcycles and power products, including general-purpose engines, generators, water pumps, lawn mowers, riding mowers, grass cutters, brush cutters, tillers and snow blowers. The stock topped out in February 2018 at $37.29 a share. Since that high pivot, the Honda has declined. Today, HMC is trading around $32.36 a share. Traders should note that HMC is trading below its important 50- and 200-day moving averages. This formation puts the stock in a weak technical position on the charts. Traders must now look lower for major support. The next important support level for HMC stock should be around the $30.50 level. This is a major retrace level and also an area where the stock broke out in October 2017. Often, this level will be defended by the institutional crowd when tested.
