Biotech HOLDRS (AMEX: BBH) Traders Indecisive Says Market Timer Frank Kollar
February 19, 2008 (FinancialWire) (By Frank Kollar)
Shares of the exchange-traded fund Biotech HOLDRS (AMEX: BBH) have traded in a pennant pattern since early this year.
Pennant patterns tell us that traders are indecisive and are buying and selling shares of BBH in an ever-tighter pattern that must eventually break. When it does, it will give us guidance as to the future short term, and possibly long term, direction of this widely traded ETF.
As the pennant tightens, resistance is currently at about $166.00 and support is at about $163. A decisive break of these levels will tell traders where this ETF will likely trade in coming days and weeks.
