The AMC Entertainment stock is overbought on RSI14 and lies in the upper part of the trend. Normally this may pose a good selling opportunity for the short-term trader, but some stocks may go long and hard while being overbought and the RSI is still moving upwards.

A correction down in the nearby future seems very likely, and it is of great importance that the stock manages to break the trend before that occurs.
