Stocks to Watch for January 31, 2014

XG Technology Inc (NASDAQ:XGTI) The Technical chart above shows a stock that is right on the cusp of a BIG BREAKOUT. On the daily chart this one looks great. A breakout over 2.20 on heavy volume is a strong buy, targetting first resistance at 2.81. The MACD oscillator is above zero and above its trigger, showing strength for the price to continue its upward path. Additionally, the accumulation/distrubtion indicator shows a sharp break to the upside that means Market Makers are snapping up shares. All technical signs are pointing to a nice rally from here.

Comcast Corporation (NASDAQ:CMCSA) The stock price has been holding in a tight range and looks poised for a break to the upside. Go long over 54.65.

( click to enlarge )

Inovio Pharmaceuticals Inc (NYSEMKT:INO) Looks like building a base for the next up move. I would look for a move up to $3 resistance in the coming days. The MACD is curling up and about to cross.

AuRico Gold Inc (NYSE:AUQ) Looks to have a bull flag pattern on it here after a couple of powerful days into it. Next buy point would be on the day the stock blows through $4.80 on heavy volume.

Stocks to Watch for January 30, 2014

( click to enlarge )

Gevo, Inc. (NASDAQ:GEVO) performed well today, closing up 10% on heavy volume and I expect to see a continuation move tomorrow. First resistance is now located at $1.40, which reflects its 50-day EMA. Once the stock breaks resistance, I expect to see the buyer push the stock higher. The daily technical indicators are reversing up and are advocating for a technical rebound. Long setup.

( click to enlarge )

Stereotaxis Inc (NASDAQ:STXS) The stock looks to be forming a Cup-and-Handle pattern on daily, with the handle not yet formed. The bias is Bullish in nearest term. A break above 5.85 on a close basis should be seen as a serious threat for the stock to test the highs of October. Immediate resistance is seen at 5.4/5.52 area.

( click to enlarge )

Onconova Therapeutics Inc (NASDAQ:ONTX) showed buying strength all day on Wednesday. The stock price is on the verge of breaking out and it could happen soon. The volume dramatically increased as the stock ran to near its major resistance, showing us there are buyers watching the stock. If it breaks 13.90 the stock will absolutely fly into the 15's right away.

( click to enlarge )

Illumina, Inc. (NASDAQ:ILMN) broke out to all-time highs during today's session to $154.99 per share, however in the final hour the stock price retracted closing at $146.67. Let's see if tomorrow the stock will confirm intraday breakout.

Adamis Pharmaceuticals Corp (NASDAQ:ADMP) closed today $6.81 (Up 1.81%) and was trading on high volume, after the company's stock received a price-target boost to $15 by an analyst at CRT Capital ( Full report HERE ). Based on the stock's price at $6.81, this implies a potential upside of 125% from current levels. From a technical standpoint, MACD and CMF showing positive signals and the RSI is above the 50% level. ( 2h chart).

Keep an eye on Polycom Inc (NASDAQ:PLCM). The stock looks poised to break out and run higher.

Stocks to Watch for January 27, 2014

( click to enlarge )

I alerted readers and twitter followers to Ariad Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:ARIA) as a possible breakout play several times last week. After drifting for weeks, the stock finally broke out of a consolidation with a large volume on Friday and reached a new three-month high. Due to the overbought readings I took profits and will wait for a pull-back to reenter.

( click to enlarge )

WidePoint Corporation (NYSEMKT:WYY) slumped again on Friday, hitting its lowest level in more than four weeks. The stock closed just above the 1.42 level 50EMA. I believe now is the time to start trying to catch this knife with a tigh stop loss. Some technical indicators such as CMF and A/D remain strong. Any bounce from here could move to 1.75. Let's see if that happens on Monday. The potential growth of the company is very attractive.

( click to enlarge )

Zogenix, Inc. (NASDAQ:ZGNX) stalking. I would like to see this stock close over 4.55 before getting involved. Both MACD and RSI are not showing any signs of weakness yet. As long as the stock trades above $4.17 EMA13, the short-term trend is considered intact.

( click to enlarge )

Superconductor Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:SCON) is pulling back on low-volume. I'm currently accumulating the stock. OBV indicator remains pointing upward.

( click to enlarge )

Oncolytics Biotech, Inc. (NASDAQ:ONCY) is forming a rounding-bottom on the daily chart. This is a medium-term reversal pattern. 1.74 EM9 zone keeps holding the upside. Technical indicators have turned slightly bullish with MACD crossing over the zero-line. 1.91 level in the daily seems to be capping the upside for now. A clear break above this level should take the price up to 2.2-2.30 area. Long setup.

( click to enlarge )

Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:MSFT) Broke out of the downtrend line in place since December as well as its 50-day EMA yesterday. The strong volume that accompanied the breakout is very bullish for the stock. The MACD has just issued a buy signal. The push should continue for the days, if not weeks ahead. Worth watching next week.

( click to enlarge )

Vringo, Inc. (NASDAQ:VRNG) Potential breakout play next week. Watching over 4 with resistance at 4.14. The MACD has inched higher and moved away from the zero line, which is very Bullish. Keep it on watch.

( click to enlarge )

Keryx Biopharmaceuticals (NASDAQ:KERX) is on my watch list for next week. The stock price can potentially set-up well for a swing-trade, if it breaks through the key resistance level at 16.18.

Stocks to Watch for January 24, 2014

( click to enlarge )

Novavax, Inc. (NASDAQ:NVAX) Consolidation below highs. I'd be cautious here as the stock price needs to work the overbought conditions. Only a break above the highs of 6.49 would suggest further gains.

( click to enlarge )

Equinix Inc (NASDAQ:EQIX) brokeout from a symmetrical triangle pattern with a very large volume. The target price for the stock is around 190. Watchout for upcoming resistance at 185.44, which is a previous high.

( click to enlarge )

Oncolytics Biotech, Inc. (NASDAQ:ONCY) There is a possible rounding bottom formation on daily charts and for the short-term it can target levels of around 2.12. From a technical standpoint, the MACD is about to cross above 0 and the RSI is gaining momentum. Long setup.

( click to enlarge )

Quicksilver Resources Inc (NYSE:KWK) On my watch list. 3.26 is the pivot here. If it breaks, we could see 3.54 quickly.

( click to enlarge )

Ariad Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:ARIA) has recently been trading high volume and is about to test resistance at 7.75 which is the previous high. If that break occurs, the stock price should be ripe for a long trade. All technicals are bullish and the short term outlook continues to look bullish.

( click to enlarge )

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) held up well today in a weak market. Technicals are now positive and its MACD just produced a new buy signal. If it breaks its recent high of 560.2 go long. Stop 539.91

Stocks to Watch for January 21, 2014

( click to enlarge )

The stock price of Onconova Therapeutics Inc (NASDAQ:ONTX) could see a nice rally just based upon the current daily charts. The daily indicators are strengthening and the fast moving daily MACD has crossed over the Slow moving MACD with positive divergences. In addition, +DI crossed over -DI, which is bullish. So, key momentum oscillators are showing some promising signs.The 50-day EMA sits at $14.14 and the 100-day EMA is at $17.92, a lot of room to go higher. This stock is also a short squeeze candidate. Right now, 1.456 million of the company's outstanding shares are shorted, equivalent to 41.98% of float. This stock deserves watching going forward.

( click to enlarge )

Stemline Therapeutics Inc (NASDAQ:STML) Ended the week with a 39% BANG. The stock closed at $30.44 with a gain of 39.5% over Thursdays close. Congratulations to everyone who profited. It is just another good example of how stocks can rally after they have fallen sharply ;)

( click to enlarge )

Stereotaxis Inc (NASDAQ:STXS) strong bullish bar on Friday with a close near the highs of the day. Expecting continuation toward 5.85

( click to enlarge )

BlackBerry Ltd (NASDAQ:BBRY) Strong bullish engulfing day on high volume, likely continuation next week. The stock price continues to trade well above its key short-term EMAs. The MACD still indicating an  up-move and the ADX is supporting this up-move. Long setup. Next key resistance lies at 9.37...above that level expect a massive short squeeze.

( click to enlarge )

Atmel Corporation (NASDAQ:ATML) nice bounce off 9-day EMA within a well formed bull flag. The stock price continues to trade above its key EMAs. Keep an eye for a possible breakout over 8.81


( click to enlarge )

Revett Minerals Inc (NYSEMKT:RVM) saw its shares surged almost 17% to 82c per share on Friday, closing above key resistance levels. The last time the stock price had a solid breakout in the 80c range, it doubled within 4 weeks. With technical daily chart showing strength, as MACD is above signal and RSI above 70, we could see this stock going strong for a while. It doesn't look to be too late to join the party :)

( click to enlarge )

Merck & Co., Inc. (NYSE:MRK) building a flag chart pattern, looking for a move through 53 and toward new highs. The ADX is signalling an upwards trend but the momentum slowing down. The MACD continues with its buy signal. Long setup.

( click to enlarge )

Cell Therapeutics Inc (NASDAQ:CTIC) Eight straight days closing in the green, indicate an extreme overbought condition, which could be solved with some profit taking in the coming sessions. It has almost doubled in value this year. The long-term trend is bullish, as the stock price is on top of both 50-day and 200-day exp moving average, with both moving averages going up. However as RSI is at overbought level (90) the risk of correction has increased. A pullback at this point would be healthy for the stock, because it would reignite some sideline cash imho.

( click to enlarge )

Biotech stocks continue to move higher and GTx, Inc. (NASDAQ:GTXI) is getting ready to retest September highs. The stock hit $2.36 on September 20th 2013, which is resistance for its next move.

( click to enlarge )

The stock price of Baxano Surgical Inc (NASDAQ:BAXS) looks strong enough to move forward. The recent increase in trading volume and the rising OBV suggests buyers are accumulating the stock.

Ariad Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:ARIA) The chart is showing a slightly bullish bias. Let’s see whether the stock price can gather enough momentum to break through 6.97. If the Bulls are able to push through this level, there will be another rally towards 7.75.
