As you can see, OLB has been on a heater.
After closing at $4.27 on November 20th, OLB has not dropped down below the $4.00 again.
In fact, when it hit a high of $8.44 yesterday, OLB officially more than doubled in value since November. That's spectacular.
With OLB now trading towards the top right of its 6-month chart, there could be very little resistance in its way of trying to reach previous or even new highs.
OLB has a current 52-week high of $15.00 which means there is a ton of upside potential from current levels.
I'm not saying that OLB is going to shoot up to that 52-week high today, but you need to be aware of the potential upside for this Fintech profile.
Plus, from Tuesday's close of $7.45, OLB is trading above several lines of strong potential support that could help fuel a continued vertical move.
OLB is currently trading above it 50-Day Simple Moving Average, 5-Day Exponential Moving Average (EMA), and 13-Day Exponential Moving Average.
Also, OLB's 5-Day EMA is trading above its 13-Day EMA which can be seen as a bullish trend short term.

#2. OLB Potential Catalyst - Low Float
Wow... This Nasdaq profile has an incredibly low float.
According to Yahoo Finance, OLB has a float of approximately 2.09Mn shares.
Why is that important? It's important on one crucial level. Volatility.
With so few shares available for trading, potential catalysts can send shares heading vertical in the short term.
The past two days is the perfect example of how quickly this profile can move on a nearly daily basis.
From a Monday low of $5.85, OLB was able to heat up and go on a run of over $2.50+ to a high of $8.44 yesterday.
That run resulted in a breakout move of 44% in the blink of an eye.
Could OLB be on pace for a major intraday breakout today?

#3. OLB Potential Catalyst - Analyst Coverage ($9.00 Target)
Back in January, an Aegis Capital analyst maintained a "Buy" rating on OLB and set a price target of $9.00.
Previously, the analyst had a price target of $7.00, but decided to up their new target by over 25%!
That's huge. Could the company's Q3 results along with an optimistic outlook for 2021 and beyond be reason for this decision?
Just yesterday we saw OLB push through the $8.00 mark, but did not come close to sniffing the new target.
Even better, with a 52-week high of $15.00, it appears that there is a ton of upside potential from current levels even if OLB is able to achieve the analyst's target in the short term.
Will this recent momentum streak since November be the fuel to push towards previous highs? You'll need to watch OLB closely today.
