Anticipating This Week's Breakout In BLNK
by Mike Paulenoff

Ten days ago (on Nov 11), with Blink Charging Co. (BLNK) trading at 9.62 just ahead of its earnings report, Mike Paulenoff wrote in our his Trading Room:
"Is this [report] the catalyst that sends BLNK surging to and through multi-YEAR resistance at 14.50-15.00? It certainly could be because the huge base formation exhibited on my attached Daily chart shows that for the past 3-1/2 months, it has been digesting the gains from the March low at 1.25 to the July high at 14.58, a digestion period that represents chart symmetry with the Sep 2017 to Feb 2018 period."
Mike added: "A bullish reaction to earnings will have potential to thrust BLNK out of its sideways, bullish Coil-type formation up to and through 14.50-15.00, and if sustained, will trigger much higher targets thereafter."
In the week following its Nov 12 earnings report, BLNK's price action has exploded to the upside to Friday's high of 24.84, a climb of 158% since Mike's Nov 11 alert.
What's more, the stock is up an astounding 780% since Mike wrote about it on July 29, 2019, when it was at 2.80, noting: "It should be viewed as a concept stock holding that has enormous potential, especially as the green and EV space expands in the next 5 years."
What's next for BLNK after its powerful advance?

More Top Calls From Mike
Last Wednesday afternoon (Jan 13), with the IWM at 210.76, Mike Paulenoff told MPTrader members:
"The Russell 2000 Small Cap ETF is just about 0.5% off of its all time high. As long as any weakness is contained above 204.30, my near-term pattern set up from the 1/04 pullback low at 190.94 is poised for still higher ATHs above 211.73."
The IWM reached a high of 215 the very next day.
Back on Dec 2, after salesforce.com (CRM) reported strong earnings but price languished, Mike Paulenoff told MPTrader members:
"Weakness in reaction to the news has violated the prior significant near term pivot low at 228.66 (10/30), triggering the Bearish Scenario (Red line) that calls for a deeper correction that projects into the 220 area next, and if violated, to the 205 - 200 target zone.
On the evening of November 30, after Zoom Video Communications (ZM) reported earnings, Mike Paulenoff cautioned MPTrader members about the stock;
"My pattern work argues that ZM started a major correction off of its 10/20 all-time high of 588.54 into the 11/10 low at 366.28. The rally from the 11/10 low at 366.28 to today's high at 487.79 (+33%) to my mind represents an intervening recovery bounce prior to a second bout of weakness that completes the larger corrective process.
During late November into early December, Mike Paulenoff became increasingly concerned about the price behavior of Facebook (FB).
The stock not only was grossly underperforming the NDX but also was in the news constantly in an unflattering light regarding its leader, Mark Zuckerberg, and censorship accusations. Since early November, the NDX is up about 10%, while FB is unchanged.
On Tuesday morning, December 8, with AAPL trading in pre-market action at 124.64, Mike Paulenoff told MPTrader members to watch for more upside:
"AAPL is following a similar, if less exciting post-coil breakout price path than did TSLA one month ago. My attached 4-hour chart shows that since the end of the Sep-Nov coil formation at 112.59 on 11/24, AAPL has stair-stepped to the upside to this AM's pre-open high at 124.96 (+11% so far), in route to a challenge of the 11/09 rally high at 127.
