[EPMB-7773]: Breaking above resistance, might be forming an uptrend.
Chart 1:EPMB-7773 (01/12/2009~31/03/2010)
As shown on chart 1, price of EPMB formed an Ascending Triangle, with price forming a short term uptrend line but remained resisted by the RM0.525 level. As indicated by A, price of EPMB broke above the RM0.525 level and broke away from its consolidation.
However, as profit taking kicked in, price retraced as a pull-back effect, and it managed to stay above the RM0.525 level. Meanwhile, during the pullback effect, volume also declined as it suggests that the selling pressure was not high.
Technically, if price should rebound from the 14, 21, 31 EMA, the uptrend is expected to resume, and then the 14, 21, 31 EMA shall continue serving as the dynamic support as well as the trailing stop reference. However, if price should break below the 14, 21, 31 EMA, it would means the uptrend has failed, thus a signal to take profit or the cut loss.
