NetEase Inc.’s U.S.-traded shares, up 70 percent since August in one of the Beijing-based online gaming operator’s strongest-ever rallies, have defied repeated bearish signals and show no signs of stopping.

Since its four-month low on Aug. 24, the stock has displayed a dozen candlestick patterns that can presage a downward reversal, including one yesterday and two last week. In that period, it has sent only four bullish signals.
