$JSEBAW Barloworld forming a bootiful rounding bottomBarloworld has not much done in the last year - but it has formed a bullish rounding bottom in the process. The chart has worked off some overbought conditions on the daily chart and has now approached both its uptrend and 50 day ma, which has provided support on numerous occasions on pullbacks. A daily close above the baseline of this pattern at R137.00, should see a technical target of R163.00 come into play. Perhaps not a bad place to enter here for a good risk reward ratio in anticipation of the eventual breakout. Stop loss close below R120.00 which would invalidate the rounding bottom pattern.
Go long Barloworld LtdJSE:BAW is currently trading at a tantalizing level for a long trade.
The R128.00 acted as strong resistance for the first 2 months of this year and it would seem as if it recently held up as good support and it is trading at this level once again.
On the moving average front, the short-term EMA has crossed above the long-term EMA. The medium-term EMA is well on its way to do the same.
The Slow Stochastic is indicating that the stock is currently oversold and the MACD, although looking somewhat bearish, is still in bullish territory.
Action: Place a Limit Order to go LONG with your Limit Price set to R128.00. Set your Stop Loss to R119.00 and your Take Profits to R140.00 and/or R150.00.
Re-visiting Barloworld - Range Trading OpportunityRecently, traders who participated in the BAW trade benefited from the sharp run-up in the share with the price which made an explosive move from 11803c to 13536c - a 14.6% appreciation over three trading sessions. While the same result may not be achieved, I believe a short term range still exists between sub-12250c (buy) and 12900c (sell). Here a stop-loss of 11990c (or 2% trailing) can be applied.
