Until earlier this year RCL had been in consolidation since 1999.
After price finally broke above $58.88 a good trend began to develop but was seriously hindered by the October pullback. This breached the 1999 pivot high and the 200dma but it was not all bad news - a cup and handle chart formation developed on the daily chart suggesting a move to the upside could continue.
The first gap up (28th November) was maybe a smidgen early - although perfectly valid as previous resistance had been tested to become support. The current gap up, however, is on very high volume and a bullish bar so a good candidate for a near-term buy.
A longer-term buy may also be on the cards but more cautious traders may want to see a bit more of the trend develop before making a long-term commitment. The longer the consolidation then the bigger the breakout - if this holds true there should be a lot more to come from RCL.
