Biotech Stocks to Watch for Thursday

( click to enlarge )

MELA Sciences, Inc. (NASDAQ:MELA) had a great move on the upside today and closed at $2.67. The stock is setting up to break out and has one more level to go, which is $2.72.  MELA Sciences is a well capitalized company, with $1.03 in cash per share. This stock has a short interest ratio of 14.3 based on average daily volume of 300.000 shares and 3.575 million shares short. This stock could be a good short squeeze opportunity on any positive news. From a technical perspective, MELA is back to bull market rally with MACD on top of 0 and %K line on top of %D line. The stock has good upside potential, so keep watching the stock for further moves. Watch the stock on Thursday, because once it breaks through, it will run fast.

Arena Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:ARNA) had a pullback into a strong support area, but it held up reasonably well. I still like the chart and will watch the stock again on Thursday. Resistance stays at $1.75 for the follow through move. Once it breaks this resistance level, we could see a quick increase in buying as momentum traders jump into this trade.

Dendreon Corporation (NASDAQ:DNDN) failed to close above the resistance level of $38.20. This resulted in a sharp drop today. The recent price patterns suggest that the downward move could continue. A decline to the 36.86-36.50 range appears likely. A close below $36.68 would impart further weakness and would push the stock to the $34.90-$35 range.

I would like to comment about trading as opposed to investing. Although I am not a trader. I am curious about one thing. How can the death or sudden death of the founder of a company be predicted by tech charts patterns and so forth ' or what about the sudden unpredicted departure of some key person of the company without any notice out of the blue. What about the unexpected loss of a major customer of the company. Sometimes these events are totally unexpected.
