Broadwing has risen for eight consecutive days and set a new 52-week high last Friday on heavy volume. I decided to close my positions today to lock in profits. It is rare for a stock to push above the upper Bollinger band for four consecutive sessions, and in the short-term I expect some consolidation to take place. In the longer term I expect BWNG to push higher still, especially if earnings (coming up next week) are strong. If so, I can always jump back in for another ride upward.
