MSCI Europe: Today's Best and Worst Performers

Following a very strong earnings report, Neste Oil gained almost 9% today.  The good news would seem to be that the 45-degree bullish support line (BSL) is holding.  But look out for long-term resistance at 'C'-- this stock could just be testing the upper bound of its trading range:

On the opposite end of the spectrum, ARM Holdings was down more than 5% today after the semiconductor supplier to Apple's iPhone and iPad reported less than stellar growth in royalty revenue.  It would seem to be a safe bet that the current column of o's continued down, through the (high performance) support line.  Next stop: support at the 45-degree BSL?
