Palo Alto Networks (PANW Quick QuotePANW - Free Report) is looking like an interesting pick from a technical perspective, as the company reached a key level of support. Recently, PANW crossed above the 20-day moving average, suggesting a short-term bullish trend.

The 20-day simple moving average is a popular trading tool. It provides a look back at a stock's price over a 20-day period, and is beneficial to short-term traders since it smooths out price fluctuations and provides more trend reversal signals than longer-term moving averages.

Like other SMAs, if a stock's price is moving above the 20-day, the trend is considered positive. When the price falls below the moving average, it can signal a downward trend.

Given this move in earnings estimate revisions and the positive technical factor, investors may want to keep their eye on PANW for more gains in the near future.
