Bancorp BreakOut - Trend Following IdeaValuations looking fine okay. Nothing exaggerated and quarter-on-quarter growth rates are good. Earnings growth has weakened in recent quarters, but remains strong in the big picture (YoY). Keep an eye on it.
Broke out of the cup formation into the trend continuation after the recent earnings. Price and volume still cast doubt on the sustainability of the breakout. There is still a lack of follow-up buying to follow through. However, the price is not really falling back. Consolidates above the breakout from the cup.
If the consolidation can be broken by the closing price:
- upwards, it would be a buy signal for trend followers,
- downwards, then a sell signal and possible correction.

TBBK trade ideas
$TBBK longThe word on the street is that the Fed will hike rates this year, some saying 6 rate hikes. A regional bank like The Bancorp might earn more with increased interest rates. The stop would be about 2% lower at the lower trend line. Confirmation is 5% higher at the upper trend line. $TBBK has a low float (52M share) but no high short interest. $TBBK could have a nice long term run for buy and hold investors, but don't expect fireworks from this one

TBBK, 1st opportunity for Long positionTBBK went through a major downtrend in the 2014/15 timeframe. A distribution zone preceded this downtrend with a price potential in the $2-$3 range. The stock did achieve this price potential.
Over the last year the stock developed an up-trend in the monthly graph.
Looking at the daily/weekly graph one can observe a narrow accumulation range, last week the price went below the support line in a False Break.
Given the up-trend in the monthly graph and this False Break any up-reversal above $4.75 represents an opportunity to open a Long position with minimum target of ~$6 (return to the Up-Trend channel)
