After the announcement of the positive earnings figures, the chart of SBS broke out of the Ichimoku Kinko Hyo indicator. The Ichimoku Kinko Hyo indicator was developed by the Japanese and consists of a formula composed of 5 indicators.

The indicators are not only able to identify the uptrend of the chart, but also show the strength of the uptrend. The chart turned bullish on August 13 when the price broke out above the Ichimoku cloud. Moreover, a golden cross between the Kijun-sen and Tenken-sen indicators confirmed the bullish nature of the breakout.

However, it should be noted that the Kijun-sen and Tenken-sen indicators were below the cloud and that a “bearish reversal” occurred at the end of the Ichimoku cloud. These are signs that the chart is not very bullish in the short term. In the short term, we could see a sideways consolidation, or the upside target might not be too high.

Given the limited strength of the uptrend, we set the initial price target for the breakout at $3.15, which is a 50% projection from the base of the triangle breakout. Traders intending to buy the stock at the current price can realise an upside potential of 3.2%.

The stop loss should be set at $2.96. This is a good trade setup with a risk-reward ratio of just over 100%.

Looking at the bigger picture, $3.26 could be the next possible price target for the stock. The 100% projection from the base of the triangle coincided with the top of a larger triangle pattern that had formed over an 18-month period. However, it will take many months for the price to reach this level. For long-term investors, it is worth holding on to this stock as the dividend yield has historically been over 3%.
