Biotechs good risk/reward IBBIt seems like the blue resistance around 246.50 is holding. Biotechs will likely be ranged bound and go back up to around 290 as investors fearful of the impact of Brexit look for solid yields and value buys. Also this trade offers a great risk reward ratio, if price goes below blue resistance exit trade.
IBB trade ideas
IBB: Short IBB at market openIBB is potentially a giant weekly short. I'd like to go short at the open, or if we get a slight retrace, with stops at 257.58.
Target is as low as 207.70, at the ver least. You can see the previous weekly signal on chart to the left, it hit the target and even exceeded it after confirming the decline as per the 'Time at mode' method.
You may pick your preferred bearish strategy, feel free to comment too.

$IBB Daily Chart & AnalysisIBB touched close to my 255.69 target AH on Friday. My belief is we have a sector rotation upon us. I anticipate weakness in SPY and a move into beaten up bio's through October.
Last time macd at same level, Px was 397.58 where an open gap remains. It's possible we see some more weakness before the rotation. $234.96 would provide a secondary test to take out the low and S2 + 1.272 fib ext.
Some bullish divergences in momentum, but can argue in a triangle. Regardless, ATR is relatively low and if you look at past precedent, these lows have been accompanied by a move higher.
Px is below developing VA and top end is $374 Lots of gaps open above at some key fib levels.
I have no position, but watching closely. ( Only bio exposure is VRX in full disclosure)
Weekly chart finding support a 50% retracementWe are seeing organized accumulation at the 50% retracement which mean the overall trend for IBB remains intact and bullish. Failure to hold the 50% threshold would suggest that prices could breakdown to $200. In the meantime demand is contracting on this smaller timeframe rally. This will likely result in a re-test and confirmation of this level following any potential break. If a re-test happens on light volume this is an ideal long entry. If the re-test is on greater than average selling volume watch out below.
Showing signs of accumlation but has to close above $290Bullish above $290. Buyer of $270 as risk is well defined
IBB has been under accumulation for most of 2016. This is try because both the monthly and weekly vertical bar/candle stick charts are in distribution. In other words this smaller timeframe is in accumulation and upon testing $320 will likely encounter longer timeframe supply and continue to break down and test $240.
We can see selling volume contract on the re-test of lows followed by an increase in buying demand. Note; however, they buying volume is contracting into resistance of $290. It is reasonable to anticipate that prices will pullback and test $270 where I suspect strong hands will resume control and push price discovery higher.
Good Luck
