ACB is strong in the face of sector weakness

TSX:ACB   AURORA CANNABIS INC
ACB broke key daily support but bulls bought the dip and finished strong near the high of the day, completely ignoring the end of day dump by the sector leader on bearish news. Price bounced just below the .382 fib level from low of consolidation to our recent high.

The daily volume was far less than I would have liked on this move, and so I expect a daily lower high to best set Monday most likely. Hourly resistance is 12.60 then 12.98 (call it 13 psychological), and I'm looking for the daily chart to top out somewhere within that range. That said, breaking $13.00 would have me very impressed but we will need much more volume to get there.

The new daily range I'm watching is 11.21 - 13.48 (again, let's call it $13.50 psychological). ACB is holding up much better than many names in the sector on the back of Coca-Cola investment rumours and an uplisting to a major US exchange this month.

In two weeks ACB saw a 70% move from 7.65 - 13.53 and the weekly chart is very extended, and is more likely than not to require a pullback before any continuation to the upside is possible. That said, a news catalyst can definitely change that and push the chart to new highs.
