Few Trade Ideas for Friday

( click to enlarge )

Banner Corporation (NASDAQ:BANR) broke out of a small consolidation range on Thursday, as the stock closed up $1.43 ( 10% ) on heavy volume. I will be watching BANR on Friday for a continuation of this breakout. The technical chart shows the buyers are back and a possible test of July's highs around $19 is very likely. The short-term trend is still bullish as the stock is still on top of 20 day and 50 day moving average with both moving averages going up. Other good news, the MACD is perking up and the OBV is moving up. I think the stock has room to go higher. Watch the stock closely on Friday.

A move on Trina Solar Limited (NYSE:TSL) above $7.52 could spark a nice short-squeeze. The stock had a nice surge a few days ago and has been in the process of consolidating. The stock is displaying upside momentum again and is poised to move higher from these levels. Nearest resistance for the stock is at $7.52. If this level is crossed and the stock is able to sustain above this level, then it might go to $8. On the downside, the stock has support at $6.35. I feel this stock will easily make a strong move to the upside.

Curis, Inc. (NASDAQ:CRIS) is starting to make a move to break through the top of its range. This is a good stock to watch and once it breaks through $3.61on a close basis, the stock should move.

Ciena Corporation (NASDAQ:CIEN) looks like it is gonna squeeze some shorts here. The stock has a Bullish looking stock chart, price broke out from the horizontal resistance mark around 12.09 share on Thursday again on high volume. Next resistance lies at $12.61. I expect to see a strong upside move if the stock can break through this resistance level. Watch the stock closely on Friday.
