BLUE – Short-Term Trade From The Depths Of Rock BottomNASDAQ:BLUE has dropped significantly from its $150 highs to its current price level around $1. I think BLUE is forming a dead cat bounce in the green support zone, and I can see a short-term swing up to the yellow trendline. The price has already rebounded quite a bit, I would look for an entry around the green support zone between $0.87 and $1.02. I can see BLUE reaching the yellow trendline at some point and there is a red resistance zone ahead. I think it will be difficult to reach the highs of the red resistance zone around $2.77. Instead, there is likely to be a slower move up towards the yellow trendline.
BLUE- a biotechnology earnings penny stock LONGBLUE a week ago had a bull run to gain 90% in 5 days and then reversed into a standard
Fibonacci retracement on the 30-minute chart, then in consolidation for a day or two getting
support from the mean anchored VWAP. The last trading day was a quick rise with momentum
in a bull flag. Earnings are coming. I will take another long trade on BLU into earnings. My
target is 1.90 about the high of the prior trend up and below the second VWAP line above
the mean. A tight stop loss at 1.53 ( below the flag's consolidation) will make it more likely the
trade will be a 20% winner. I have taken call options strikng $1.50 for March 15th for $20 each.
or a small loss of 2-3%
Bluebird Bio (NASDAQ: BLUE) Posing Strong Bearish TrendBLUE is currently trading above its 50-day and 200-day simple moving averages (SMA), indicating a bullish trend. However, the 50-day SMA is below the 200-day SMA, forming a death cross pattern, which is a bearish signal.
The 20-day exponential moving average (EMA) is also above the current price, acting as a resistance level. A break above the 20-day EMA could signal a continuation of the uptrend, while a break below the 50-day SMA could signal a reversal of the trend.

BLUE Bullish DivergenceOn Balance Volume has been (bullishly) diverging from price since May indicating that "smart money" has likely been accumulating.
ADX is a level that implies a trend and D+ crossing D- indicates that it is bullish.
Recently we see price test the .236 Fibonacci level on higher than average daily volume days after gapping up and possibly changing trend (higher low, with volume)
Currently price sits at a possible double top, in the event that it cannot close above $4.05.
The chart looks bullish if price can break the $4.05-$4.13 level, with volume.
Support/Stop $3.50ish
targets: $5.63, $7.26

Lead asset LentiGlobin (Zynteglo) is approved in US and Europe for the treatment of transfusion-dependent thalassemia. Bluebird's LentiGlobin (lovo-cel) is also in pre-registrational stage for sickle cell disease.

BLUE Biotechnology New Earnings Catalyst LONGBlueBird Bio / BLUE had an earnigns report this past week showing earnings for the firat time
but revenue was far below analyst's projections. Price has appreciated 40% in the 4 weeks
since earnings which is about 500% annualized. GO BLUE.
On the daily chart, price was above VWAP and consolidating much of last fall then dropped
this YTD until the earnings report of last week. An uptrend is seen after the earnings.
This has been a significant reversal sustained over the past month
with price rising above the support / demand zone below it. At present, price is one
standard deviation below VWAP making it undervalued and ascending.
I see this as a risky long trade like many biotechology penny stocks but with a decent
probability of profit in consideration of a target of 6.15 which is the top of the long
term high volume area. the stop loss is just below the POC line of the volume profile
at 3.15 An entry at 4.62 ( limit order above SMA200 (redlne) would yield at profit of
1.50 with a risk of 0.48 making for a R:R of 3:1. Another earnings report is coming up this
week. If it is favorable, BLUE could go parabolic to hit the target in a day or two.
If not, it will be time to exit the trade.
$BLUE - reversal play?$BLUE has been in down trend just recently formed a potential rounding bottom reversal. If price can break through $7.50 then $8 it can head to $11.75 area.
$7.50 is an important resistance area and breaking through that would require quite a push from the bulls.
Target 1 - $7.50
Target 2 - $8.00
Target 3 - $11.00
Risk - fail to get above $7.50. Retreat to $5 area.
