Top Trade Ideas for Thursday, February 24
( click to enlarge )
As I've mentioned earlier, the stock has shown increased trading activity and signs of being under accumulation or being bought, by institutions. I believe that shares have room for a significant uptick beyond these levels. Technically speaking, MMI is setup to move higher and could break the $30 mark and its 50-day moving average this week, something that could attract more traders to jump in and push shares even higher. Price has now crossed the 7-day moving average to the upside, another buy signal and an indication that the stock may have finally reached its bottom mid-February. RSI is also moving up and likely to cross its 50% level soon. Keep your eyes on MMI tomorrow, because the XOOM will be launched by Verizon.

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) gave us a small move today, which could be the start of a possible bigger move. But for a major run, the stock needs to cross $348.48 which is a major resistance level.

Devon Energy Corporation (NYSE:DVN) broke through resistance at $90, but was not able to gather must momentum. Wait a clear confirmation.

Calpine Corporation (NYSE:CPN) has an improving chart. I'd buy it when it breaks the high at $15.06 on heavy volume, but I would definitely say CPN is on a bullish trend at the moment.
