As the price has now broken through the top of the trading range, the bulls seem to be in control – especially with the weekly bullish engulfing candle formation that has developed.

Technical analysts would typically measure the height of the range and forecast that as target level from where price breaks through.

In the case of Lululemon’s share price, this target price would be around ~$531.00 which represents a possible 30% uplift from the break of the range.
