Take a look at the 1-year chart of BioMarin (Nasdaq: BMRN) with my added notations:
1-year chart of BioMarin (Nasdaq: BMRN)
With the exception of a brief fake-out in June, BMRN has been range bound since April. Over that period of time the stock has formed a clear resistance at $65 (red) that had also been a prior support. In addition, the stock has also created a key level of support at $55 (green). At some point the stock will have to break one of the two levels that the consolidation has created.

The Tale of the Tape: BMRN has clear levels of support ($55) and resistance ($65). The possible long positions on the stock would be either on a pullback to $55, or on a breakout above $65. The ideal short opportunity would be on a break below $55.
