The Lululemon Chart: Lululemon was working to print an inside bar pattern on Wednesday. The pattern leans slightly bullish in this case because both the mother bar and the inside bar are large green candlesticks.

  • If Lululemon closes the trading day near its high-of-day price, higher prices and a break up from the mother bar are likely to occur on Thursday. If the stock runs into sellers who knock Lululemon down to close with an upper wick, lower prices may be in the cards.
  • Lululemon has been trading under a descending trendline since Dec. 2, making a fairly consistent series of lower highs and lower lows. When a stock breaks up from a descending trendline it can signal that a longer-term uptrend will take place. Traders will want ot see that happen on hgiher-than-average volume to confirm the patter was recognized.
  • If Lululemon breaks down from the inside bar pattern, the downtrend will be back in play and the stock is likely to fall lower over the days that follow.
  • Lululemon has resistance above at $315.90 and $329.54 and support below at $304.38 and $288.05.
