122 days to close the gap?

Illumina is bullish since 2012. We have seen a huge buying wave which started 2012 at 25 $ and reached till 240$ in 2015! After building this top, we can see a consolidation phase which reached down to the 0,5 fibo at 133,745$. Perhaps a Big Bearish H&S will be formed. The neckline is corresponding to the central Support Level. (TPs from this H&S could be: Min TO 74$/ Max TP: 19$ - this is a pure technical view, not my view :-))


These days we could read bad News - the consequence of this bad momentum is a huge and ugly downgap - similar to my former view.

Former view:
Bottom x 4 vs. Triangle
Buy - Sell? Good question , no matter how you decide, fact is, that we now are trading near a clear action Point: The three times tested support level @ ~ 130$

2 Trades are thinkable:
Buy the support @ 130 --> exspected TPs: 149 / 165
Sell the Break of the Tringle-Support @ 127-130 - exspected TP:100

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In my former view we tried to catch the gap-close - it worked! It took 122 days to fill the former gap.

Will it work again?
Out of this view, the actual gap could be closed february 2017 :-)

What can we see at present?
We can see a trading range between ~130 - 190. After the youngest downgap we have again nearly reached the multiple times tested central Support Level - the Box`s bottom.
If you believe the gap will be closed again, you could open a nice longposition near this mentioned bottom. Here you have a really nice Chance-Risk-Ratio - 7:1!
The Box`s bottom should be supported by the uptrendline which is based at 118$ at present.

If you think about a bigger trendbreak, you could decide to open a shortposition below the central Support Level like illustrated in my former view.

Best Regards Mary
