Shares of Arena Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: ARNA) surged more than 7% to $1.38 per share on today's session after announced that lorcaserin will be featured in presentations at ECO 2011, the 18th European Congress on Obesity. This event will take place May 25-28, 2011, at the Istanbul Convention & Exhibition Centre Lutfi Kirdar in Istanbul, Turkey. Lorcaserin is an investigational drug candidate intended for weight management, including weight loss and maintenance of weight loss, in patients who are obese or patients who are overweight and have at least one weight-related co-morbid condition. From a technical standpoint, it looks likea stock that is poised to make a come back after dissappointing performance this year. First of all the six month chart shows the stock has formed a bottom around $1.21. Then the stock closed above its 50 dma for the first time since January with good volume. Although stock is still in bear market with MACD below 0, with %K line now back above %D line the stock has chance to start new rally. Keep a close eye on ARNA because it could be a strong play.

Golar LNG Limited (NASDAQ:GLNG) - Nice looking breakout with volume. Held 50 day sma and broke above recent consolidation. Looking for a move above $30.44 as an entry here on the long side. The technical daily chart above shows the momentum indicators have turned up and the RSI is on the rise.

Analog Devices, Inc. (NYSE:ADI) - Very impressive high volume breakout on Wednesday. The stock needs to hold this prior resistance are as support for ADI players not to get punished. Otherwise, best to let it base out a bit first before entering. Technically, the stock is in bull market rally as %K line is on top of %D line and MACD is above signal.

FormFactor, Inc. (NASDAQ:FORM) continues to drift lower but the stock should find support around its 200 day sma. I don't see any changes from Wednesday night comments. I love the risk/reward so long as it holds above the 200 day moving average. The technical daily chart shows major rally could be coming as the 50 day moving average has crossed on top over 200 day moving average and formed Golden Cross in March, a very bullish sign. In addition, Stochastics are oversold and beginning to turn up, which often leads to short covering. One weak signal is MACD which has dipped below 0. I keep the bullish bias on FORM.
