The stock value of Universal Robina Corporation or URC or even better known as the company who makes C2 green tea, jack and jill chippy, nips, magic flakes and many more is steadily rising after years of downfall. This company listed in the Philippines stock exchange has broken out from the ascending triangle formation (indicated by the red horizontal and diagonal lines) last May 8 as seen in the charts. After it broke out, it made a return move and bounced from its new support (red horizontal line) yesterday. Strategically trading the stock, I would enter it at its current price placing a stop-loss below 7.6 or once it goes below the support line (red horizontal line) with a target price of 9.5-9.8.

In the 1st picture, a chart of UBP dating back from 1996, the stock price has bounced of its 10yr support (violet dotted line). The 2nd picture at a closer view, UBP has broken out of a resistance (green dotted line since January of 2008). 26.5 per share looks like a good buy for UBP but a better bet is when the price breaks out of the cup and handle formation's (indicated by the bigger red arc is the cup and and the smaller red arc indicates the handle) resistance line (red horizontal line). Closing above 27 is my best bet! Click image to enlarge!
