Double Bottom (Reversal)

The double bottom is a major reversal pattern that forms after an extended downtrend. As its name implies, the pattern is made up of two consecutive troughs that are roughly equal, with a moderate peak in between.

Although there can be variations, the classic double bottom usually marks an intermediate or long-term change in trend. Many potential double bottoms can form along the way down, but until key resistance is broken, a reversal cannot be confirmed.

It is important to remember that the double bottom is an intermediate to long-term reversal pattern that will not form in a few days. Even though formation in a few weeks is possible, it is preferable to have at least 4 weeks between lows. Bottoms usually take longer than tops to form and patience can often be a virtue. Give the pattern time to develop and look for the proper clues. The advance off of the first trough should be 10-20%. The second trough should form a low within 3% of the previous low and volume on the ensuing advance should increase. Volume indicators such as Chaikin Money Flow, OBV and Accumulation/Distribution can be used to look for signs of buying pressure. Just as with the double top, it is paramount to wait for the resistance breakout. The formation is not complete until the previous reaction high is taken out.

AsiaInfo Signs Contract with China Unicom to Develop Push Mail Mobile Email System
Friday January 12, 7:06 am ET


BEIJING and SANTA CLARA, Calif., Jan. 12 /Xinhua-PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- AsiaInfo Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: ASIA - News), a leading provider of high-quality telecom software solutions and IT security products and services, today announced it has recently signed a contract with China Unicom to develop its national CDMA push mail platform.

''We are seeing a growing trend towards managing information through mobile devices and we are excited to collaborate with China Unicom to develop this push mail solution,'' said Steve Zhang, AsiaInfo's President and CEO. ''China Unicom's push mail platform will be tailored to synchronize with their multi-media email system and meet the unique mobile email requirements of Chinese users.''

Push mail, which allows users to send and receive emails and view multi- media attachments via a mobile device, is rapidly gaining popularity worldwide. In China, China Unicom's push mail service has seen strong user growth since it was introduced in early 2006.

''Since the construction of China Unicom's UniNet internet backbone, we have worked closely with China Unicom to build its VoIP network, broadband network, CDMA billing systems and CDMA based wireless VAS applications,'' added Mr. Zhang. ''We are delighted to continue this relationship with China Unicom and look forward to collaborating on many more high value projects in the future.''

AsiaInfo's high capacity push mail system is based on detailed research, analysis and testing of leading domestic and foreign push email systems. With the imminent arrival of the 3G era, mobile data services such as voice email, music download, and other information and entertainment services are expected to become an essential business for all of China's telecom operators. AsiaInfo will continue to pioneer reliable and efficient mobile data solutions in order to ensure increased profitability among its telecom operator clients.

ASIA is a cash cow.  $151 million in cash and no debt

I'm not in it right now (playing the hot China stocks with my cash right now...but since ASIA has a market cap under $500million right now...I believe with the revenue/earnings growth it possibly could get close to $1billion dollar market cap the the end of the year.  This is probably a safer China play than the speculative/bubble stocks I'm playing right now.

Anyway here's the chart

New 52 week high.  No news

Man...ASIA...just keeps going up all day with no pull back.  Steady volume too.

[422fwhp]

...you beat me to it...

"AsiaInfo is inexpensive way to play Chinese telco growth - Pacific Crest (9.36 ) : Pacific Crest notes yesterday ASIA reported net revenue of $35.1 mln, exceeding the consensus estimate of $32.5 mln, and pro forma EPS of $0.18, exceeding expectations of $0.12. The firm says while many of our software vendors are worried about a slowdown in their end markets, AsiaInfo is expecting acceleration in Chinese telecommunications software spending. With $4.63 per share in cash and $0.55 in EPS, ASIA's valuation is compelling.      B.C"
