New York, January 12th (TradersHuddle.com) - Shares of Textron Inc. (NYSE:TXT) are trading very close to calculated resistance at $22.00 with the current price action closing at just $21.32 placing the stock near levels that make it difficult to buy.

Textron Inc. (NYSE:TXT) is a global, multi-industry company with operations in aircraft, defense, industrial products, and finance.

Textron's current stock range is defined by current calculated support defined at $17.94 and by the resistance level at $22.00, the stock is clearly over-extended from support, making it difficult to establishing new long positions at this level.
