Technical Trading Alert Technical Trading Alert Virgin Media Inc. (NASDAQ: VMED) Wednesday, September 16th, 2009 Tony Golan Chief Technical Analyst Stockprofit.com™ Virgin Media Inc. (NASDAQ: VMED) is in a strong long-term up-trend. The stock is making higher highs and higher lows above a rising 200-day moving average (the red line in the chart above). Relative Strength Differential (RSD), our proprietary indicator for selecting super-strong stocks (the green histogram on the above chart), is above the 25% threshold line, indicating VMED is in a strong enough up-trend compared to the S&P 500 to be considered as a candidate for a buy. VMED made its most recent corrective low when it hit 10.86 in early September, marked as point 1 on the chart. From there, VMED rallied to a new high for the current up-trend of 12.61 a week later, labeled as point 2 on the chart. VMED paused and consolidated for a few days, then took off again. On Tuesday, point 3 on the chart, VMED rallied to close well above the open, near its high of the day and above the previous high for another new high for the current up-trend with a medium-sized white candlestick above-average, rising volume. At a new high, this setup is good for a daytrade only. Daytraders would want to buy VMED only when it goes .02 above Tuesday’s high, but not if it gaps up or triggers in the first 30 minutes. Therefore, if VMED doesn't go above 13.00 before 10am EST Wednesday morning, place an order to buy VMED at 13.00 Stop Day. Then, as soon as your order is filled, immediately place a stop order to sell VMED .03 below whatever the low of the day is at the time the order triggers. Then, if the stock continues to rally throughout the day, keep raising your GTC sell-stop until the stock gets sold automatically or exit your position at the close.
