Boohoo (LON: BOO) Share Price Analysis
I was one of the few analysts who accurately predicted a bounce in BOO when the stock was forming the bottom. If you read my previous analysis, you know that I also gave the price target of 40p which has been perfectly met.
The following chart shows how the price is struggling to fund strength above 40.20 level. Currently, the stock is trading exactly at this level but volatility may increase in the coming days. As long as the bulls hold the 200 MA at 38.67p, there will always be a possibility for breakout above 40.20p.
The long-term Boohoo share price forecast depends on the probability of this breakout which may occur soon. In such a bullish scenario the first upside target will be 48p, followed by 55.78p.
