NXP Semiconductors NV (NASDAQ:NXPI) broke out of a small consolidation pattern that it has been in for a month and jumped $1.79 or 5.05%, today on higher-than-average volume. Today's strong action suggests that we could see continuation of the trend in the next couple of sessions. Short-term target range between 38.80 and 39.

Looking at the technical chart above, the stock is clearly in downtrend as it continues to trade below the major moving averages. There are no signs of a recovery in stock price. At the present moment, there is a risk of a drop. Stop-loss for long positions may be placed at 6.64. On the upside, a close above 7.16 would impart bullish momentum.
