After a nice leg up from a long cup & handle
VIRT
took a rest and formed a nice flag pattern. In which, yesterday made a breakout and I bought a small position.
This flag has a flagstaff of 6.76 points. TA rules state that after the breakout, the price should reach the same 6.76 points up. That would be equal to target price near $42, or a +19% advance. But I'll be very cautious as there is a strong resistance level at $38.
With a IBD RS rating of 95 and a number 3 in the IBD Industry Group Rank, Virtu is posted to be one of the leaders of the next bull market. Today is a good example of leadership as is having a good follow through day with an up day of +3% while the NASDAQ is down -1.70%.
