Stocks to Watch for the Week of November 9th, 2015

( click to enlarge )

Rambus Inc. (NASDAQ:RMBS) closed the week with a clear bullish tone in its daily chart. The stock price entered within the gap area and a short term rally is expected. The RSI is bouncing off 40 and the A/D is turnings up again showing money is flowing into the stock. Plus, MACD flashed a buy signal, supporting the Bullish view. At this point, short-term traders may prefer long-positions towards a potential initial target around 12. It could be gearing up for a nice run next week, so make sure to take action and do not miss out on this opportunity. A reversal may be on the way IMO.

BlackBerry Ltd (NASDAQ:BBRY) Closed the week with a BANG and looks like it will continue to run up. After 4 weeks trading in a tigh range, patient investors were rewarded as the price finally broke out of the consolidation period. From a technical standpoint, the daily chart shows that the 200-day EMA stands at 8.33, providing a key dynamic resistance for the upcoming sessions, as an extension beyond this level, should lead to additional gains and a potential big short squeeze. In the same daily technical chart, indicators maintain their bullish tone above their mid-lines, which means that the rally is far from over.

ZIOPHARM Oncology Inc. (NASDAQ:ZIOP) closed above the 13.50 level for the first time in two months on relative high volume. The stock faces now a key resistance around 14/14.08 which needs to be breached for a rally to $15 levels. Only a break above this area will see a strong directional move follow and will decide the stock’s next medium-term trend. So far the daily technical chart is still showing buy signal with price trading above all EMAs and and MACD on the rise. Any drop just means better buying opportunity, using the rising EMA9 as the stop-loss.

Marvell Technology Group Ltd. (NASDAQ:MRVL) continued its bullish momentum yesterday in the midst of strong call option activity. The stock hit a high of $8.98 which is now resistance for Monday’s follow through move. Daily technical indicators are looking bullish. The MACD is negative but is rising above its signal line and Slow stochastic has re-entered their respective Bullish zone.

Aerie Pharmaceuticals Inc (NASDAQ:AERI) closed up on Friday at $26.13 and it appears ready to make another big run. First possible target price for this stock is at $30 and have to see from there. The uptrend remains intact and further gains look likely in the short-term.

Bed Bath & Beyond Inc. (NASDAQ:BBBY) is setting up for another run. Lets see if it breaks over $61.49. Long set-up on watch.

Stocks to Watch for November 03, 2015

( click to enlarge )

Aerie Pharmaceuticals Inc (NASDAQ:AERI) jumped 6.80% today finishing the session near the highs of the day on decent volume, suggesting buyers are stepping in. If the stock breaks today's high, the momentum could move stock to the 27.5 area.

( click to enlarge )

Himax Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:HIMX) breaks out of a small falling wedge pattern combined with a potential triple bottom formation, which could be signs of a bottom here for the stock. RSI is turning up and the MACD is forming a base for a sustained rally. The stock has all the potential to become a classic bounce play. I expect to see a strong upside move if the stock can break and close above the 6.16 level. Watch the stock closely on Tuesday.

( click to enlarge )

Sonus Networks, Inc. (NASDAQ:SONS) looks to have built a nice base and wants to make an upside move. If the stock can break through $6.85, we should see strong volume drive the stock higher. All indicators are in favor of an upward price movement. Add it to your watchlist.

( click to enlarge )

Infoblox Inc (NYSE:BLOX) started the day negative but turned things around to close up nicely on solid volume. The technical indicators are reversing up and are advocating for a technical rebound. The real fireworks should begin if the stock price can close above $17.07. As long as the stock can remain above the 15.9 level, I like the stock.

( click to enlarge )

BlackBerry Ltd (NASDAQ:BBRY) has become increasingly bullish and is currently consolidating in an attractive bullish pattern. A move past 7.55 would be a strong indicator of a further uptrend in the stock. I think the stock looks set to break higher on Tuesday. Keep it in your radar list.

( click to enlarge )

Goldman Sachs Group Inc (NYSE:GS) has been in a beautiful uptrend move since beginning of October. Considering the strong momentum in the past weeks the stock price looks set to break higher and rise above its 200-day EMA. Further strength above 191.96 opens the door to 200. Put her on your radar.

Biotech Stocks to Watch for October 28, 2015

( click to enlarge )

Just one more push to change this trend. XOMA Corp (NASDAQ:XOMA) was one of the winners on Tuesday, as the stock closed up 24 cents on the day with high volumes. From a technical standpoint, the stock is in a short-term Bull Market with share price above 9, 13, 20 & 50 EMAs. The MACD is rising in the positive territory and the accumulation line is moving higher. There is a Big gap to fill above 1.43, so watch the stock closely tomorrow.

( click to enlarge )

Zafgen Inc (NASDAQ:ZFGN) is one for the bottom pickers. Looking at the technical chart, there are early signs in the indicators, that a larger move may be coming. The MACD indicator is showing signs of reversal and the RSI is deeply oversold, raising the probability of a short-term bounce. If the potential "buy" signal confirms itself, I will be looking for a move to the resistance area at 11.70-12.25 at the very least. The stock could have good upside potential, so watch the stock closely on Wednesday.

( click to enlarge )

Aerie Pharmaceuticals Inc (NASDAQ:AERI) broke through resistance and out of the base formation. Technical indicators are looking Bullish with the RSI rising while the MACD is cutting above its signal line. With the spike in volume and momentum surging in today's trading sesison, there is a high possibility that the stock price can appreciate even more in value during the coming sessions. Keep it on your watch list going forward.

( click to enlarge )

Avalanche Biotechnologies Inc (NASDAQ:AAVL) stock starts showing buy signals again. However, after the recent decline in share price, a good entry point will be only in a break of its 20-day EMA at $8.35 on heavy volume.

( click to enlarge )

Juno Therapeutics Inc (NASDAQ:JUNO) has been under the radar for the last several weeks and appears that the stock still has more fuel in its tank for a move higher. The stock broke a key resistance line today with an up-move of $3.01 to 52.99. Next resistance is now seen at 55.

( click to enlarge )

ZIOPHARM Oncology Inc. (NASDAQ:ZIOP) broke out of an important consolidation area with a long white candlestick. This new rally should at least push the stock to $13.2

Stocks to watch for the week of October 26th

( click to enlarge )

BlackBerry Ltd (NASDAQ:BBRY) after a big surge early this month, the stock has been consolidated in a very good pattern, creating a flag formation on the daily chart. This is typically a bullish continuation pattern. Friday's move it seems to have broken the flag's upper boundary, however we need a clear violation next week, followed by a break of the intermediate resistance at 7.45. Based on the technical chart, I see a high probability for a continuation of current momentum and a move toward the 8-8.25 area. BlackBerry has already opened-up pre-orders for its Android smartphone, known as the Priv, a high-end QWERTY slider phone with a fantastic battery life and great camera. Blackberry Priv might be the most secure Android phone ever. This could be a good catalyst for shares.

( click to enlarge )

Relypsa Inc (NASDAQ:RLYP) During Friday's market, the stock showed solid accumulation (as you can see on the chart above - A/D indicator) with the Investors soaking up all the cheap shares. Plus, the close above the previous day's high (reversal candlestick) should provide some strength to the bulls and encourage them to extend this bounce. A sustainable move above 14 can push the stock higher towards 15.94 (9EMA) - 16.67 levels. After the FDA approval, some analysts gave positive comments with target prices well above $50 and one key insider has purchased 500,000 shares on Thursday, which is why you should watch this stock closely next week. Im long and strong.

( click to enlarge )

Apple Inc.(NASDAQ:AAPL) broke out of a large sideways channel pattern on solid volume, closing at the highest price in almost two months. If momentum continues, we could see the stock hit 130 over the next couple of sessions, but keep mind, Apple will report earnings on Tuesday afternoon, so everything can happen.

( click to enlarge )

Gevo, Inc. (NASDAQ:GEVO) Watch for a potential swing long entry. The daily chart depicts a resistance near 2.24 level from the falling trend line. A break above this level will confirm a new bullish trend and the following uptrend will take price up to $3 zone. The MACD is moving higher, which is a sign of growing strength in the stock. On radar.

( click to enlarge )

Facebook Inc (NASDAQ:FB) recorded a new high in Friday's session. Short-term outlook for the stock is bullish. Buy the stock in dips with a stop-loss at $98.88. The daily technical chart looks very Bullish with all EMAs going up and MACD on top of "0". Long setup.

( click to enlarge )

Weight Watchers International, Inc. (NYSE:WTW) is gaining some momentum again. A move past $16.20 would be a strong indicator of a further uptrend, however a tight stop loss should be used.

( click to enlarge )

Aerie Pharmaceuticals Inc (NASDAQ:AERI) Resistance Breakout. Go long on the break of Friday’s high at 22.25

The stock closed the day with a gain of 4.85 per cent at 31.15 on strong volume after touching the day's high of 31.40. From a technical standpoint, the bias is bullish in nearest term. Key resistance is seen at 31.50. A clear break and daily close above this area could trigger further bullish momentum testing 33.51 or higher. The stock stayed above the 50-day EMA and the MACD and RSI still in buy mode. Long setup.

Aerie Pharmaceuticals Inc (NASDAQ:AERI) attempted to push lower on Friday bottomed at 20.50 but quickly whipsawed to the upside and closed slightly below the key resistance zone.

MACD is about to trigger a new buy signal with Slow Stochastic pointing upwards. Long setup on watch.

Opexa Therapeutics Inc (NASDAQ:OPXA) is quietly gaining momentum. The stock has posted an impressive two day rally and continues to garner investor interest. Daily technical chart shows that it closed the day above its 50-day EMA, while momentum indicators crossed their midlines to the upside, supporting further advances. The increase in OBV suggests buyers are accumulating stock. It could initiate a sharp rally, back to $4

( click to enlarge )

Arena Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:ARNA) Will watch to see if it can break this horizontal resistance line next week. Key momentum indicators are trending in a positive direction. The bias remains bullish but the 2.54 area needs to be clearly broken to the upside to continue the bullish scenario. The immediate support is seen around 2.24/2.26.

( click to enlarge )

Chesapeake Energy Corporation (NYSE:CHK) surged in the final hour of trading and closed back over the 50-day EMA. As long as the stock can remain above $7.90, I like the stock. The accumul/distrib line is starting to curl upward (accumulation) which should eventually lead to price increases. On watch.

( click to enlarge )

Juno Therapeutics Inc (NASDAQ:JUNO) A nice looking bullish pattern on the daily chart. It will be interesting to see if next week the stock can continue its upward momentum. The key resistance level to watch is at 51.70. Above this level could test 57.6 next.

( click to enlarge )

VirnetX Holding Corporation (NYSEMKT:VHC) has been consolidating almost sideways trapped between the strong resistance around the 4.20 price level and supported by the rising 20-day EMA. Its momentum indicators are showing positive indications and price bars are trading above short-term EMA's, denoting the current positive tone may turn into a new uptrend. Use the rising 20EMA as your stop loss. On watch.

Stocks to Watch for October 06, 2015

United States Steel Corporation (NYSE:X) finally rebounded on heavy volume. This could be the start of a trend reversal for the stock, which is why I will be watching again the stock on Tuesday. Next resistance is $11.59, which was Monday’s high of the day. If the stock breaks through, there is a good chance you will see a strong upside move, so watch the stock very closely tomorrow. Plus, MACD triggered a bullish crossover.

Rubicon Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:RBCN) might be close to squeezing some shorts based on the recent price action.

The stock is now trading significantly below cash and book value. With an improving RSI and a bullish stochastic crossover, I have a feeling that it will break higher shortly.
