After reporting earnings last week and guiding lower on future revenues, a couple of analysts disagreed and raised their guidance. The stock fell back to test $70 and has been on a tear ever since. Today the stock is hitting all time highs and showing strong upside momentum.

TRIP has been trading in a fairly narrow range since August, and breakouts of this sort typically run for a while as consolidation leads to a resumption of the uptrend. The 50-day moving average should provide a good source of support for this bullish chart.
