Ascena Retail Group Inc (NASDAQ:ASNA) Setting up a possible resistance breakout trade. Go long on the break of Wednesday’s high at 14.06

( click to enlarge )

Emerge Energy Services LP (NYSE:EMES) I think in the short-term the stock will bounce nicely off this bottom. Looking to see if stock can get over $7 for nice bounce into 10's

( click to enlarge )

Tetraphase Pharmaceuticals Inc (NASDAQ:TTPH) is a stock that deserves some watching over the coming sessions, for a potential short-term reversal. MACD crossover and Sto could help it get into 10's again. I'm holding my shares for now, as the stock is now trading near cash levels. Debt free companies trading near cash levels (They have $6.69 per share or 242M) present a valuable upside for investors.

ConforMIS Inc (NASDAQ:CFMS) is consolidating nicely between 17/19. Worth watching for a breakout. Stop 16.72

( click to enlarge )

Talmer Bancorp Inc (NASDAQ:TLMR) Another one with a nice look. Resistance Breakout. Go long on the break of Wednesday’s high at 16.72

Stocks to Watch for September 30, 2015

Bitauto Hldg Ltd (NYSE:BITA) could be in the early stages of a technical breakout. A break through today's high on volume could lead this stock to 30-30.51 short-term.

( click to enlarge )

Great Basin Scientific Inc (NASDAQ:GBSN) looks poised for a break to the upside. The declining 9-day EMA has been proved to be a strong resistance. More times the resistance has been tested, there is good chance for breaking above that point. Technically speaking, I feel that there is a possibility for the stock to go beyond 12c this week. It ended the session with a bullish candlestick formation, supporting the bullish bias and indicating further upside potential. As long as the stock can remain above 7c, I like the stock.

( click to enlarge )

Violin Memory Inc (NYSE:VMEM) surged in the final hour of trading and closed back over 1.50. The real fireworks should begin if it can close above $1.61. The MACD is starting to curl upward again which should eventually lead to price increases. On watch.

( click to enlarge )

Novavax, Inc. (NASDAQ:NVAX) The stock has a strong support around the $6 level, which can be used as a stop-loss for short-term positions.

Stocks to Watch for September 28, 2015

( click to enlarge )

The daily technical chart set-up for Prima Biomed Ltd. (NASDAQ:PBMD) appears to be near perfect to deliver gains next week. The stock closed up 16.83% Friday accompanied by strong volume and momentum, outperforming the entire sector. It has finally broken above downtrend line, closing at $1.39. Momentum is positive and RSI is in buy zone area. The stock's next major resistance would be its August highs at 1.80. Additionally, the company announced on Friday (Form 6-K) that Marc Voigt, CEO, will present an overview of the company at the LEERINK Partners 4th Annual Rare Disease Roundtable. This one-day event will be held at Le Parker Meridien in New York City on Wednesday, September 30, 2015. This could be a huge catalyst for next week. If momentum continues on Monday, we could have a nice winner on our hands.

( click to enlarge )

Vital Therapies Inc (NASDAQ:VTL) After setting a new week-high, the stock has encountered resistance around $5, a level which it should be able to beat given the cuurent strong upward trend. Keep your eyes on this one, it has a nice gap to fill.

( click to enlarge )

NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA) Bullish rally stalled by resistance and market weakness. It needs to close above 23.85 to resume uptrend. Go long on the break of Friday’s high at 24.07. From a technical standpoint, indicators are bullish but giving mixed signals, which is usually during sideways consolidations.

( click to enlarge )

Juno Therapeutics Inc (NASDAQ:JUNO) stock found resistance at previous highs that was identified in my last post. Although it has fallen off sharply from this area, i think it is highly unlikely that the medium-term bullish move is over. Daily technical indicators are in neutral zones. MACD is moving sideways with a slight upward bias and RSI has crossed below its 50% level. I like the potential of this company.

( click to enlarge )

Alibaba Group Holding Ltd (NYSE:BABA) Looks like the stock may have put in a bottom, however it needs a close above the $61 level to signal the beginning of an upward trend. Positive MACD divergence is also visible. Stop $57.92.

( click to enlarge )

Semtech Corporation (NASDAQ:SMTC) The price action on Friday created a potential/temporary bottom in my opinion, because a candlestick reversal pattern called the "hammer" was formed on high volume. A rise above the 15.50 level should confirm the reversal which may push it back slightly above 16.22 level. On watch. Stop Friday's low.

Juno Therapeutics Inc (NASDAQ:JUNO) showed buying strength all day on Thursday. Watching for $44 breakout. This momentum could push this stock much higher from here, so keep the stock on your radar for Friday’s trading day, as there is good upside potential in this move. A clear break above the resistance level could trigger further bullish pressure testing 45, because the short sellers will start buying to cover their positions. Momentum indicators are bullish with RSI inching away above the 50% level. The strongest sign of a bullish momentum is the MACD indicator which has just started to increase again and the CMF is also showing positive signs on the stock.

Stocks to Watch for September 23, 2015

( click to enlarge )

Strong breakout of resistance on volume confirmation. The heavy buying makes this an interesting situation and one worth watching on Wednesday. The technical chart shows the stock is in a short term bull market rally with MACD on top of signal line and %K line on top of %D line. This momentum could push this stock much higher from here. Next resistance is now seen around $2.50. VW scandal could benefit this company. CDTi's Chief Technology Officer will participate at the 6th Annual Global Congress of Catalysis 2015 (GCC-2015) being held September 24th to 26th in Xi'an, China.

( click to enlarge )

E I Du Pont De Nemours And Co (NYSE:DD) looks like it may have found a bottom already. The daily technical indicators are looking better for the stock with MACD indicator above its sell signal line, %K line on top of %D line and RSI indicator moving up from the 30 level. A close above $49.51 will impart bullishness and will help the stock move to the $52 area.

AEterna Zentaris Inc. (NASDAQ:AEZS) I grabbed the pullback under 8c and took a long position. If it can holds this support area we might see another leg up.

Etsy Inc (NASDAQ:ETSY) had a nice move on the upside today and closed above the 50-day EMA on solid volume. Considering the strong momentum over the past week, I think the stock looks set to break higher. In addition, we saw bullish options activity with buyers of the Oct 17.5 calls. Keep this stock on your watch list on Tuesday.

( click to enlarge )

Gevo, Inc. (NASDAQ:GEVO) started the day negative but turned things around to close up nicely on decent volume. Keep an eye to see if it can breakout above the $2.45 level. The stock shows signs of a trend reversal. Trajectories of momentum indicators on daiy charts also suggest uptrend for the stock.

( click to enlarge )

Great Basin Scientific Inc (NASDAQ:GBSN) posted a very strong bullish reversal candle on high volume and could signal a reversal of the price decline. Watch for continuation. First resistance lies around 12c.

( click to enlarge )

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) Starts the week with nice gains on high on decent volume. I believe that the stock could be gearing up to make a run out of this trading range. Next buy point would be over 117 area.

( click to enlarge )

Vascular Biogenics Ltd (NASDAQ:VBLT) broke out and never stopped all day. There is a good chance it will continue to move up. If the stock price can break through $8.37, we should see it move up to $9.13. Looking at the technical chart the investor sentiment in stock showed by RSI continues strong and MACD is rising in positive territory.

Stocks to Watch for September 21, 2015

( click to enlarge )

Chesapeake Energy Corporation (NYSE:CHK) Friday's bar closed back above the 50-day exponential moving average, so the uptrend looks set to continue. A break of 9 could push the stock further higher up to 10.5 level (100EMA). Among the technical indicators, MACD is positive and RSI is above its 50% level, showing positive momentum.

( click to enlarge )

ZIOPHARM Oncology Inc. (NASDAQ:ZIOP) It looks like the potential V-bounce pattern is materializing on the daily chart, as I mentioned last week as a possibility. The RSI has hit the overbought territory but it can be in this area for a long time in strong uptrends. Lets see what next week can bring us.

( click to enlarge )

Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) is setting up for a very interesting upside move. The stock hit a high of $546.24 on Friday, but was not able to above this level due to the market conditions. I expect to see a high volume move once the stock breaks through the key $547 resistance area, as traders are watching this stock closely. From a technical standpoint, this stock is currently in an uptrend and is finding support from its 20-day EMA now located at 520. Keep the stock on your screen because once the stock breaks through resistance, it should take off and move quickly.

( click to enlarge )

Great Basin Scientific Inc (NASDAQ:GBSN) Could see a significant bounce next week based on the heavy volume that we saw in the last trading session. I think it deserves some watching over the coming sessions, for a potential short-term reversal (dead cat type bounce). It is down from $2.50 to $0.05 with not much a of a bounce in between. I bought some shares on Friday at 0.055 . I have no problem playing some of these type of stocks for a bounce, because they could be very lucrative. Look what happened with AEZS on Friday +133% (It had a very similar chart pattern) but there is some risk in this trade. Also, positive divergences are showing up in a number of indicators, often good leading indicators at bottoms.

( click to enlarge )

I've been stating for days that the Vringo, Inc. (NASDAQ:VRNG) stock was trying to bottom as it had nice positive divergence developing, now stock is near to cross the $.675 level, which could give a strong boost for run to $.82 (200EMA) Keep an eye on stock. I'm Bullish on VRNG.

( click to enlarge )

Plug Power Inc (NASDAQ:PLUG) had a strong breakout Friday with a pop of 11 cents to 1.89 or 6% on 5.5 million shares, the biggest volume in a couple of weeks. Friday's strength could lead to more upside.

( click to enlarge )

Tetraphase Pharmaceuticals Inc (NASDAQ:TTPH) was a nice winner for my readers and twitter followers. I brought this stock to your attention last week sub-10 and on Friday it closed at $12.54 on high volume. As i mentioned on twitter I took some profits at $12 but i will try to re-enter again.

( click to enlarge )

Vital Therapies Inc (NASDAQ:VTL) shares successfully broke the $4 resistance level Friday on high volumes. This is a very bullish development. Short-term technical indicators are looking bullish and the MACD on the daily chart recently produced a new buy signal. If the stock can break the 13-day EMA at 4.17 next week, we should see a strong follow through move.

( click to enlarge )

Juno Therapeutics Inc (NASDAQ:JUNO) has been on a nice uptrend and could be ready to breakout after strong volume in the last trading session. I wouldn't be surprised to see this stock trade back to $45 or better in the short term.

Stocks to Watch for September 18, 2015

( click to enlarge )

Ariad Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:ARIA) is coming up to a big level, as the stock is near the upper line of the ascending triangle. I will be watching this stock closely on Friday as I expect to see a strong move once the stock breaks through resistance. A move past $8.23 would be a strong indicator of a further uptrend in the stock.

( click to enlarge )

Tetraphase Pharmaceuticals Inc (NASDAQ:TTPH) It looks like investors are finally aware of the buying opportunity at the current levels after the big drop occured early this month. The stock remains deeply oversold and has lots of upside potential. If it breaks today's high, the momentum could move stock to the $16 area where the 9-day EMA is located. A/D shows accumulation.

( click to enlarge )

Sunedison Inc (NYSE:SUNE) closed positive on Thursday as the stock continues to try to make another upside move. The stock is likely to move to the 13.25/14 range on the break past the resistance zone.

( click to enlarge )

AK Steel Holding Corporation (NYSE:AKS) With the good guidance reported after the close on Thursday the stock should gap higher tomorrow. A push through the $3 level with volume could break the downtrend line. Next major resistance level lies at 3.62

( click to enlarge )

Oncothyreon Inc (NASDAQ:ONTY) $3.65 is the next resistance level that if broken, could send shares back to retest the $4 level.

BlackBerry Ltd (NASDAQ:BBRY) displayed some impressive relative strength with a 2.27% gain. The area comprehended between 7.70 and 7.85 represents a strong resistance. The power of today's move suggests an upward breakout that could impulse the stock to test the July highs at 8.16. Indicators are turning up. The RSI crossed above 50 and +DI crossed above -DI today indicating renewed buying pressure.

( click to enlarge )

Amedica Corporation (NASDAQ:AMDA) has had a rough time over the past weeks but today’s bounce could be the first move to recovery. I'm using 51c as resistance for this upside move. If the stock can break through this level, we should see a reversal of this down trend. On watch.

( click to enlarge )

Bazaarvoice Inc (NASDAQ:BV) broke and closed above its 20-day exp moving average with high volume. Short-term technical indicators are improving and the MACD rising. If the stock can break Wednesday’s high, we should see a strong follow through move. BV will move very quickly, so keep a very close eye on the stock.

Chesapeake Energy Corporation (NYSE:CHK) Broke out of the range to the upside and closed over the 50-day EMA. Watch for continuation. The next resistance level is around 10.

If Athersys, Inc. (NASDAQ:ATHX) can close above $1.33 this week, there should be some nice momentum in the stock. The RSI analysis is signaling a bullish outlook which can be further confirming in MACD and ADX charts.
