Stock Picks for Tuesday, October 19

( click to enlarge )

SIGA Technologies, Inc.(NASDAQ:SIGA) has been one of the hottest stocks around, trading up from $8.00 to its current price of $14.38, all this month. Monday, the stock closed at $14.06, trading 3x normal daily volume. I am buying SIGA again once it breaks $14.38, but I recommend using the stops on this stock.

Citigroup Inc. (NYSE:C) released earnings and was one of the big winners on Monday. The stock traded as high as $4.20, before pulling back the last hour of the day. I am watching the stock on Tuesday, and will be buying once the stock breaks through Monday’s high of $4.20. Citigroup could be a good stock for medium-term investment, based on its historical performance and from the technical indicators. Let's keep an eye on it.

GigaMedia Limited (NASDAQ:GIGM) was a bit weak today despite a positive stock market. It appears that the 50-day moving average located at $2.01 was successfully tested. The momentum clearly favors the bulls. As long as GIGM can remain over $2, I like the stock. If $2.10 is broken, look for $2.4-$2.5. Today's pullback has been on lower volume just as it should be. Looking for a nice bounce from here with accumulation and relative strength.

OceanFreight Inc. (NASDAQ:OCNF) - Technical breakout on no news. I don't see anything until the $1.32-$1.5 area. The stock is now back above the 50 day moving average which is very bullish. Let's keep an eye on her as i think momentum will pick up.
