English to Portuguese Other Business/Commerce (general)

As a stock with the Scalloping habit finally works up in price to 15 or so, its pattern tends to become less regular; it begins to depart from the smooth, narrow Saucer-like curve of the lower levels. Above 20, it is apt to break away entirely from the Scallop sequence and produce, from there on, more rapid straight-line advances, interspersed with sharp reactions and standard types of Consolidation Formations, which are characteristic at all times of medium- and higher-priced issues. (There are exceptions: Some high-priced preferred stocks for which there is always a market, but whose trends depend almost entirely on the gradual changes in prevailing interest rates and supply of funds for investment, have a persistent Scallop habit in their Primary Upswings.)
