Stock Chart Analysis ILMN
Illumina, Inc. (Public, NASDAQ:ILMN)
I've been watching ILMN for a few weeks after it had a huge move late in 2009 and into early this year. ILMN was able to rally from the mid $20's to the $40's in less than a month. Interestingly, the rally halted immediately as it almost filled a bearish gap from late October. While it was disappointing that ILMN couldn't follow through with a break to new highs, the action after that rally has been healthy. ILMN has been consolidating in a fairly tight 5 point range since then and appears to be holding the 200-day moving average as support. ILMN may be on the way to retest the $40 level, as buyers have been consistently stepping in at the bottom of this range. While that would be a decent trade from these levels, it would get really interesting if ILMN cleared the $41 level. If that occurred, it would not be a surprise if it squeezed some shorts and rallied to new all time highs. Currently, that all time high is just above $47. A close below $35 would be a sign of weakness and a likely time to reconsider.
Good Trading,
Joey
