NYSE:SYK currently holds a 9 as its setup rating, suggesting a particular level of consolidation in the stock.
Besides having an excellent technical rating, SYK also presents a decent setup pattern. Prices have been consolidating lately. There is a resistance zone just above the current price starting at 370.26. Right above this resistance zone may be a good entry point. There is a support zone below the current price at 363.03, a Stop Loss order could be placed below this zone. Another positive sign is the recent Pocket Pivot signal.
One way to play this would be to wait for the actual breakout to happen and buy when the stock breaks out above the current consolidation zone. A possible place for a stop loss would be below this zone.
