The public United States-based corporate services company founded in 2007 as a spin-off from Automatic Data Processing, Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (NYSE: BR) seems to be gearing up for a surge as per its latest charts.
Bullish Indications
#1 Flag Pattern: As seen from the daily chart, the stock was in a strong uptrend after which it started consolidating and was in a narrowing range. This is a classic flag pattern and is marked in the chart in purple color. A flag is a continuation pattern. Whenever a stock breaks out of this pattern, it typically continues its previous trend (uptrend in this case).
#2 MACD above Signal Line: The daily chart shows that the MACD line (blue color) is currently above the MACD signal line (orange color). This is a possible bullish setup.

The +DI line is also currently above –DI line.
This indicates possible bullishness.
#4 Price above MAs: The stock is currently trading above its 50-day as well as 200-day SMA.
This shows that the bulls are currently in control.
#5 Bullish RSI: The RSI is currently above 50 and moving up, indicating the strength of the current upmove.
#6 Cup and Handle pattern : The weekly chart of BR shows that the stock is forming a cup and handle pattern. This is marked in the chart in pink color. The cup and handle pattern is a consolidation and breakout pattern and a breakout from it would indicate that the stock may move higher in the short term.
#7 %K above %D: The weekly chart shows that the %K line is currently above the %D line, indicating possible bullishness.
#8 Bullish RSI: In the weekly chart as well, the RSI is currently above 50 and moving up, indicating the strength of the current upmove. The stock is also trading above its 50-week as well as 200-week SMA, indicating possible bullishness.
