TECHNICAL ANALYSIS
Bowne & Co. Comes Out Roaring
04/18/07 01:33:50 PMby Chaitali Mohile
BNE moves out of a long consolidation period with a huge increase in volume. Will this breakout lead to a bullish rally?
Position: Buy
| Bowne & Co. (BNE) appears to be a strong but slow-moving stock. It consolidated for almost six months after its rally from $13 to $15.50. During this phase, the lower pivot was taken, indicating its bullish strength. Figure 1 shows high volatility in volume during consolidation, showing that high-risk trading was performed from a low range of $15 to $16.50. |

| Relative strength index (RSI)(14) moved close to the 50 level in a tight range during the consolidation. The RSI (14) crossed below the 50 level while the price also tried to break down through its lower range. Recovering faster, the RSI gave birth to a bullish rally, moving above 50. This made a price break through its upper range at $16.25. Volume increased with the breakout of consolidation. |
| Average directional movement index (ADX)(14) at 20 shows a developing bullish trend. The moment that the price broke out, the positive directional index (+DI) moved vertically to 33 and the negative directional index (-DI) to 11. |
|
| FIGURE 2: BNE, WEEKLY. The price moves above its previous high with the support of a 50-day moving average. |

| On Figure 2, the weekly chart also shows a long consolidation phase. Here, the lower end of consolidation was supported by a 50-day moving average. The price moved above its previous high with the support of a 50-day moving average. This provided more strength to the bullish rally. The RSI (14) also broke out of its consolidation range, creating new buying opportunities. The ADX (14) at 15 indicates a developing bullish trend. |
| As a result, traders and investor can go long with a target of $19. The length of consolidation ($16.50 - $14) $2.50 is added to $16.50. |
