Oclaro, Inc. (OCLR) stock surged 15.65 percent to $3.40 today after the company raised its second quarter preliminary revenue guidance to about $86 million from the previous forecast of $75 million to $85 million, while Street predicts $80.69 million. From the technical analysis perspective, the outlook for OCLR is relatively bullish. Stochastic, MACD and ADX charts are flashing bullish signals. Also significant was that the stock closed above a key resistance point of $3.25. I will be watching the stock on Friday for a continuation move. Resistance for this move is $3.53, which reflects Thursday’s high of the day.

Today marked an important shift in Sirius XM Radio Inc. (NASDAQ:SIRI) shares as they closed above a major horizontal resistance line that has been forming since September last year. The stock was one of the big winners, closing up 21 cents on the day. SIRI traded heavy volume as it hit a high of $2.04. This high is resistance for Friday’s continuation move. Looking at the technical chart I see a stock that cleared a sideways consolidation base. Next resistance lies at $2.25. Keep SIRI on your radar for Friday’s trading day.
