Stocks to Watch on 12/13: EDU, PCYC, GOOG + My Successful Picks

I would like to take a chance to price myself on successfully picking some of the most profitable trades to include in my blog so far this month.

Exclusion: Stocks which I gave unclear, neutral comments with uncertainty remains
Example1: Break above over $10.00 would trigger short squeeze
Example2: Huge run today. But watch out for overbought level on RSI.)
Example3: Pullback to 50day moving average is a great entry (meaning buying now may be too pricey/risky)
Another Success Story: NFLX, but I am no longer bullish on this stock.

Already! 

 NYSE: EDU. I have mentioned it on Dec 06 on its behavior on Bbands. It seems to me that the stock do not stay too long around the lower Bband. Every time EDU touches it, there is a huge appreciation quickly and prices stays around upper band for a while. EDU touches lower band last week and again shows upward moves. MACD histogram is about to cross above 0. My target for EDU is $21.00, which is roughly 10% potential upside.

Pharmacyclics, Inc. (NASDAQ: PCYC) as most technicians says “always buy on a breakout”, I would like to add – pullback is always good entry. Now PCYC is testing its support level at $62.00. MACD crossover + upward sloping MA(50) tells me to stay bullish on this stock.

Google, Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOG) Isn’t it a very decent head and shoulder? Entry at $706. Stop at $682.

Stocks to Watch on 12/12: ARNA, RIMM, CAH, CLWR, INTC

 Arena Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: ARNA) , the second best performing stock in Russell, is forming an asymmetric triangle on chart,which is, with high statistically probability, a continuation pattern. ARNA is now trading around its (upper) neckline. Both RSI and Slow STO is making higher lows, confirming the trend. I am bullish on ARNA and have a target of $12.50 after a break above.

Research in Motion Ltd. (NASDAQ: RIMM) breaks its ascending triangle today. However, MACD histogram is showing a negative divergence and Slow STO & RSI is at over bought level. Be careful when you trade RIMM, alright?

Cardinal Health, Inc. (NYSE: CAH) is trading close to the neckline. Watch for a break above; or a cup and handle pattern formation as RSI is at overbought level.

Clearwire Corp. (NASDAQ: CLWR) After I mentioned last Monday on the breakout of ascending triangle, giving a bullish signal on CLWR, it has made another huge move today with great volume. CLWR jumped 11.67% closing $2.68. Slow STO is making higher lows. MACD is positive. Healthy chart right there. My target stays the same – $3.00 until breaking above $3.00 psychological mark.

Intel Corp. (NASDAQ: INTC) has recovered much since $19.23 low and is now trading right below its downtrend. Watch for a break above which could send this stock to $21.50 quickly. However, Slow STO is at overbought level. Therefore, I am remain bearish on this stock until a significant break above.

Today’s Notable Tweets:
$EXPD continues moving higher after breaking its bullish pennant yesterday.
$PCYC testing its next huge resistance $63.00. A break above could send this stock to $65.00
$AAPL MACD crossover, could there be a reversal to uptrend?
$YOKU squeezing, but the outlook is still bearish to me

STOCKS TO WATCH ON 12/11/2012: BP, HPQ, POL, PWR, SLYW

Stocks to Watch on 12/11/2012: BP, HPQ, POL, PWR, SLYW

Labels: 

 BP Amoco PLC (NYSE: BP) failed to break above 50day and 200 day moving averages. Now, both moving averages trending downwards, with falling Slow STO, RSI. I think BP is a good short candidate. I can’t see any technical that it is going to reverse its downtrend in the short future.

Hewlett-Packard Co. (NYSE: HPQ) gains a lot of attention the recent weeks due to its quick recovering from the $11.00 bottom. Today’s high, $14.59, is about to touch the big resistance level at $14.71. HPQ is now closing above its 50 day moving average with high MACD reading. If $14.71 is significantly crossed with decent volume, HPQ should recover back to $16.00 in no time. However, Slow STO is persistently showing overbought level, there might be some correction or horizontal move until a breakout comes and high slow STO reading eases.

 Polyone Corp. (NYSE: POL) has broken its ascending triangle pattern today with higher-than-normal volume. MACD crossed above with high lowers in Slow STO. However, POL tends to have correction at least back to the level around 50-day moving average. So, my strategy is be patient and entry when it is trading around $19.00.

Quanta Service, Inc. (NYSE: PWR) breaks above previous high and closes at $26.92 with great volume. MACD histogram crossed above zero last week. Similar to POL, a pullback to around 50-day moving average is a good entry point.

SkyWest, Inc. (NASDAQ: SKYW) is constructing a huge ascending triangle on chart with decreasing volume along the formation of the pattern (a textbook ascending triangle feature). Look for a break above, which could easily send to stock to $13.00.
 
Some worth-noticing tweets on my Twitter today:
 
CMF on $TLAB is about to cross above. Bullish. + Seems like an ascending triangle is forming.

  1. Today Candlestick of $ANF looks like a Doji, not a good sign. Will take a look again right before close.
  2. Reversal (toward downside) on $AAPL Point & Figure Chart. Bearish.pic.twitter.com/erfDw5gN
  3. $GMCR finds great support at around $38.00. bullish.
  4. $IDCC flying after crossing $44.00
  5. $AFCE (Popeye’s ) trading around its lower bband. watch for reversal pattern
  6. $NOK has shown very decent price action Since Nov, as long as it trades above $3.40, I think it has huge upside potential.

STOCKS TO WATCH DEC 07: MRVL, NOK, WMT, XOM, AAPL

Labels: 

 Marvell Technology Group, Ltd. (NASDAQ: MRVL) has fully filled its recent gap today. From the peak in volume at previous two troughs, it could be a double bottom pattern fully formed, signaling a trend reversal. Prices crossed the bottoming MA(50) as well. Watch for tomorrow’s move. If trend continues, my short term target is $9.50, then $10.00.

 Nokia Corp. (NYSE: NOK) dropped 3.35% today, however, holds well above the neckline of the breakout yesterday. MA(50) is recovering and MA(200) seems bottoming + watch for golden cross. As long as NOK closes above $3.60, I am bullish on this stock.

Wal-Mart Stores, Inc (NYSE: WMT) shows Elliot Wave pattern on chart. Despite of the recent uptrend with gap filled, OBV is not recovering much (negative divergence). The recent closes, including a inverted hammer and doji, shows the recent uptrend is revering, sending the stock into Wave C. Under E Wave theory, Wave C is the longest, with biggest drop and volumes. I think similar action is happening on AAPL as mentioned in yesterday’s post. 

Exxon Mobil Corp. (NYSE: XOM) another mega-cap stock I wish to cover as it is also showing Elliot Wave pattern on chart. Situation is basically same with AAPL and WMT above, except it seems Wave C has not started yet. Also, MA(50) and MA(200) is not looking good at all. They are both downward trending. So, put this on your radar. I think a big drop is coming soon.

STOCKS TO WATCH ON DEC 06: AAPL, EDU, IDCC, NOK, SPY

Please also follow me on twitter @garylee_hk for instant updates on market currents

Labels: 

Apple, Inc (NASDAQ: AAPL) breaks below its ascending triangle, reversing its uptrend, as I mentioned yesterday on  my blog. http://stks.co/mG4T. Today, it falls 6.43% and another half percent during after hours. MACD is falling quickly and will soon be having a bearish cross. CMF is falling again. The picture on Apple is not nice. I shorted AAPL today. I have a target of $500 by the end of this week.

New Oriental Education (NYSE: EDU) has almost filled all of its gap after its accouting scandal. By the look of the huge drop in two days, touching lower Bband with low readings on RSI and Slow STO. Although I think this stock is due for some correction. I am nothing saying the uptrend still enacts, prices touching lower bband can consider as a BUY signal (by textbooks)

InterDigital, Inc (NASDAQ: IDCC) breaks above $44.00 today. 200 day moving average seem to come to a saucer bottom. MACD and CMF are holding up pretty well.

S&P 500 (NYSE: SPY) This is my first time covering technical analysis on stock index because today’s move is very interesting and bullish on chart. Today’s low hits $140.00 (or Index:1400) yet closing slightly above yesterday open/close. Resistance is found under 50 day moving average but it seems like SPY is making higher lows. After all, I am bullish on stocks towards to the end of 2012.
Nokia Corp. (NYSE: NOK) raised 12.79% today with huge volume and 2% more in after-hours. 200 day moving average might be bottoming. MACD is ticking up. Faster moving average crossing slower from below could trigger another buying power. But I think NOK is due for some correction, as this stock rarely stays over 70 on RSI for longer than 2 days.

STOCKS TO WATCH ON DEC 05: FSLR, NFLX, P, DDD, AAPL

Labels: 

First Solar, Inc (NASDAQ: FSLR) does not only break above its ascending triangle pattern, finding great supports from 50 day moving average. it has also make a new 52w new high today with decent volume.

 Netflix (NASDAQ: NFLX) I commented about a possible short squeeze on twitter yesterday but I did not expect such a huge run like NFLX did today. I was expecting the squeeze ends around $85.00. I guess the market sentiment on NFLX is really bullish, at least for now. From the chart it shows me today, recovering MACD & MA(50) coming close to MA(200), I think the stock definitely has the potential to hit $100 in a short while. Unless tomorrow actions is bearish and closes below $85 significantly, then it might signal volatility in this stock and market uncertainty on NFLX.

Pandora Media, Inc. (NYSE: P) is a possible bottom play. This could be a inverted head and shoulder forming.

3D Systems Corp. (NYSE: DDD) again follows the channel and shows some bullish action today. I look forward to this stock hitting above $50 in the coming 2 weeks.

Apple, Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL) shows a bearish signal on chart as it breaks below the ascending triangle, despite a bullish breakout of a triangle happened last week. I think AAPL would drop appx. another 1.5% tomorrow.

STOCKS TO WATCH ON DEC 04: CFNL, FB, MET, JEF, PCYC, QIHU

Stocks to Watch on Dec 04: CFNL, FB, MET, JEF, PCYC, QIHU

Standing O for me, I signaled my followers on a upcoming depreciation on $NFLX prices throughout the weekend on twitter (click here to follow me) and stocktwits. $NFLX dropped more than 5% today.
 I have also mentioned it on my blog (click here to view)

Cardinal Financial Corp (NASDAQ: Broke its pennant today, which is a signal of trend continuation. I have a ST target of $16.21. Slow STO just left oversold level and MACD is upticking.

Facebook, Inc (NASDAQ: FB) filled the gap made on July yesterday. We have seen some correction today; however, as long as it is closing above $27.00, I am still bullish on this stock.

Jefferies Group, Inc. (NYSE: JEF) has made a new high today. I do not have a target for now but the chart is definitely bullish. JEF has a 1.02x Price/Book and 15x P/E ratio. Quite a stock with value.

Metlife, Inc. (NYSE: MET) is trading around 200 and 50 day moving averages with a quote neutral level of CMF and RSI. Look for a move above $33.70 as entry.

Pharmacyclics, Inc (NASDAQ: PCYC) has just crossed above its ascending triangle pattern, testing to fill the gap. Assuming the uptrend continues tomorrow, I have a short term target of $59.00.

QIHOO 360 Techniclogy Co. Ltd. (NYSE: QIHU) has gained massive momentum with volume after breaking the $25.00 resistance level. CMF & MACD accelerating.

Stocks to Watch on Dec 03: AMD, BAC, CLWR, IDCC, TLAB

Stocks to Watch on Dec 03: AMD, BAC, CLWR, IDCC, TLAB

Labels: , , , ,

Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (NYSE: AMD) slowing the downtrend. Looks good on MACD. Watch for big action as price touches upper Bband with bands widening.

 Bank of America (NYSE: BAC) moves follows the channel well. BAC also outperforms other banks’ stocks, such as JPM, C, etc. CMF is recovering. It finds some great support from 50 day moving average. OMV is moving up quickly with very little price appreciation. BAC is on my radar.

Clearwire Corp (NASDAQ: CLWR) broke its ascending triangle on Friday. ATR is upticking, Bband is widening with price closing above its upper band. Bullish Slow STO signal. I look forward to more price appreciation throughout the coming trading week.

 InterDigital, Inc. (NASDAQ: IDCC) is closing around its recent high. Watch for a breakout above $43.09 for entry.

 

Tellabs, Inc. (NASDAQ: TLAB) I got some luck on this stock. I posted my bullish view on this stock on my Wednesday Nov 28’s post, but I did not expect a huge price appreciation that huge and quick. CEO is trying to boost its stock price by paying a $1 special dividend. According bird-in-hand theory, this stock should rise $1 above its price before the price on dividend declaration date, which would be around $3.80 (adding from previous day’s close) I still long this stock.

Stocks to Watch on Nov 30: APP, APPL, GDOT, NFLX, TIVO

Stocks to Watch on Nov 30: APP, APPL, GDOT, NFLX, TIVO

Labels: , , , ,

 American Apparel, Inc (AMEX: APP) formed a shooting star today, which could be bearish. But, since MACD is just crossed and CMF is recovering. I think the 200 day moving average should give a decent support. APP is on my radar.

 Green Dot Corp (NYSE: GDOT) has filled the previous gap, not far away from $13.59 high. Crossing $13.59 would send the stock on fire. Mind for high RSI reading thou.

 Netflix, Inc (NASDAQ: NFLX) broke the ascending triangle from below and CMF crossed below, which are bearish signals. I have already sold my shares.

TiVo, Inc (NASDAQ: TIVO) Its first time not to drop after earning reports since 2012 Q1. Nice jump today with huge volume. Bbands is widening with accelerating CMF reading. Long setup. Congras for those who follows my twits.

 

Apple, Inc (NASDAQ: APPL) today has opened, as well as closed above the little pennant formed, a sign for trend continuation. My short term target of $620 still holds. However, mind for a 50 moving average cross down.
