Achillion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:ACHN) finally broke above resistance in today's trading session accompained by a strong volume suggesting higher levels. I don't see anything until the $4.09-$4.15 area. On the technical side, the MACD and stochastics all point to upward trend while RSI is also rising but hasn't yet reached overbought level. The stock is now back above the 50-day exp moving average, which is very bullish. Let's see if tomorrow the stock will confirm the breakout. Short-term investors can buy with a stop at $3.39 and long-term investors can hold with a stop at $2.94. The short interest is also high (27%), with more than 16.7 million shares sold short. This breakout could force the bears to cover. Let's keep an eye on her as i think momentum will pick up.
