Solar Sector Heating Up Technically

After this evening's close, First Solar, Inc. (FSLR) will release earnings.

If my intermediate-term, technical set-up is any gauge, then The Street will respond favorably to whatever the company reports.

In fact, my expectation is that FSLR will react positively to earnings, and embark on a powerful advance that challenges its next heavy resistance zone between 44.75 and 50.00.
