JDS Uniphase (JDSU) could be poised for more upside in the weeks ahead after breaking above the key $6.35 level on heavy volume today. The stock closed at a bullish weekly high close and hit a fresh 32-week high. Bulls have the near-term technical advantage and gained fresh upside momentum on Friday. Upside momentum still intact. The MACD indicator has just risen above the centerline recently, suggesting that the tone has turned positive again. In addition, the ADX is increasing and is near 20 level which shows a strong trend is developing. The RSI indicator is moving up above 50 and the +DI is greater than the -DI by a great margin, indicating a Bullish trend. I like that the stock finished strong and expect to see a continuation move on Monday. Resistance is $6.77, which reflects Friday’s high of the day. Once JDSU breaks resistance, I expect to see the buyer push the stock higher.

Rambus (RMBS) - It is clear that Rambus wants to move higher again, but too much caution right now. Once we get a couple of positive events, we will move rapidly. Rambus reacted to the $19 mark over the past two sessions and has suffered a small correction as shown in the chart above. Short term support for the stock is in the 17.85 to 18 region. There should be room for another leg upward once the stock digests this small correction. While the stock is correcting in the short-term, there are no clear signs of a top forming in the daily charts as of yet. Indicators are favoring longs with both positive momentum indicator and positive MACD above the zero line.A move above $19.65 would mark a medium-term breakout. There is something interesting for this scenario occur, the November series shows a huge amount of calls at the 20 and 25 strikes, it looks like people are really convinced that stock will breakout over $20 and $25 soon. Let’s keep an eye on it.
