51job (JOBS) is a nationwide provider of integrated human resource services in China, with a strong focus on recruitment advertising. This stock is trading up 8% at $52.52 in recent trading.

Today's Volume: 121,000

Average Volume: 58,975

Volume % Change: 216%

From a technical perspective, JOBS is bouncing strongly to the upside here right off its 50-day moving average of $49.26 with above-average volume. This stock recently formed a double bottom chart pattern at $45.01 to $45.60. Following that bottom, shares of JOBS have spiked well above both its 50-day and 200-day moving averages. That move is now pushing JOBS within range of triggering a major breakout trade. That trade will hit if JOBS manages to take out some near-term overhead resistance levels at $54 to $54.50 with high volume.

Traders should now look for long-biased trades in JOBS if it manages to sustain a move or close above those breakout levels at $54 to $54.50 with volume that hits near or above 58,975 shares. If that breakout triggers soon, then JOBS will set up to re-test or possibly take out its next major overhead resistance levels at $60 to $61.40.
