Some stocks worth watching next week, trading rules and a BIG THANK YOU

( click to enlarge )

NII Holdings Inc (NASDAQ: NIHD) jumped $1.10, or 16.92%, to $7.6 on Friday, breaking out above its upper line of the sideways trend and a mid-term horizontal resistance zone on volume, sending a new buy signal. The measured price target of this breakout is at 9-9.20 range. Daily technical indicators are in bullish zones with all exponential moving averages rising. A continuation of the rally is likely.

Evofem Biosciences Inc (NASDAQ: EVFM) Do you remember this symbol? We made a lot of money in the summer, when the stock rose from $2.30 to $4.96 in just few trading sessions. Since then the share price has been consolidating that move within a large bull flag pattern, which was broken in the final hour on Friday. Although technical analysis doesn't predict the future of a stock, studying previous price history and patterns can often help to determine what a stock may do in the future. In the case of EVFM this bull flag pattern is probably the most bullish chart pattern you can trade, because it occurs when a stock is in a strong uptrend. Daily technical indicators are also predicting a new strong move higher, with the RSI indicator rising while the MACD is cutting above its signal line. Over $4 it could make another explosive move upwards, so keep your eyes on it and watch it trade. My system gave a new buy alert and i entered long on Friday.

Hope you all enjoyed a great bounce on Emerge Energy Services LP (NYSE: EMES) last week. I mentioned on blog as a potential bounce play, and BANG !!!! "We could see a 30-50% possible bounce up to $3.25 - $3.5 a share" A huge congratulations to all those who profited from last week idea. The stock rallied for over 50% potential gains on Friday session. I took profits but i will keep EMES on my watchlist for a possible re-entry. The next key resistance is located at 3.89 (declining EMA50).

Altimmune Inc (NASDAQ: ALT) is another serious potential big runner next week. The stock has been witnessing increasing buying pressure for several consecutive trading sessions, with the accumulation line rising. I believe that the bullish accumulation witnessed over the last weeks is a prelude to what traders could see very soon. Daily technical indicators are looking bullish. MACD is rising above its signal line in negative zone. ALT's chart suggest that increased buy side activity could push share prices to much higher levels.

Adamis Pharmaceuticals Corp (NASDAQ: ADMP) is recovering from its recent bottom with MACD Hist showing a positive divergence. It looks like the stock wants to breakout of this falling wedge pattern, but has not been able to gain the needed momentum. You should keep this stock on your screen radar next week.

( click to enlarge )

Acacia Communications, Inc. (NASDAQ: ACIA) Broke out yesterday on heavy volume and looks ready to test the highs.

( click to enlarge )

CorMedix Inc. (NYSEAMERICAN: CRMD) bounced strongly again from its long-term trend line on volume, which suggest a continuation of the current uptrend. As long as this trend line holds and the $1 level is intact we could see a bullish trend intact.

( click to enlarge )

Vaxart Inc (NASDAQ: VXRT) I still think this stock looks set to break higher. With flu season coming up, it could go to $4-$4.85 on a sharp rally. Chart looks very interesting here.

( click to enlarge )

AcelRx Pharmaceuticals Inc (NASDAQ: ACRX) broke out yesterday but didn't hold the strong gains above the breakout zone and closed at 4.80. Watching action closely up here. We need a close above 5.05 to see further gains. Buyable on a pullback to 4.25 imho

( click to enlarge )

Affimed NV (NASDAQ: AFMD) broke the falling wedge pattern last week. The volume confirmed the breakout as it was greater than average. Setting up for higher prices. Technically, dips should be bought. Next key resistance level lies at 4.64

I decided to share you all followers again my basic trading rules that should be taken always in consideration for trading in order to become a successful trader in the stock market. 

1 - The trend is your friend, so never go against the trend. 
2 - Keep your losses small. Golden rule: Cut losses short. Let profits run. 
3 - Use stops. The stop loss should be placed few cents below the supports and not at the same level. 4 - Learn the basics of fundamentals, charts and technical indicators. 
5 - The good trader is one who makes consistent gains, so don’t be a greedy trader, appreciate the small and the big gains. 
6 - Do not fear the market. Be always confident in your trade decisions. 
7 - Never buy what you do not want, because you think it is cheap. 
8 - Always be conscious that the loss may arise and you should be prepared for that to happen. Open mind. 
9 - For large positions, you must to have total control of the market never losing sight 
10 - Volume is a leading indicator, so play the breakouts using the volume as support of your decision. 
11 - Chart breaks without volume could be a trap and the probabilities of succeeding are low 
12 - Do not be hasty to buy or sell a stock, every day there are new opportunities to make money. Be patient is the key of success of any trader. 
13 - Only believe fundamentals as long as the technical signals follow. 
14 - Trading very speculative stocks is a frequent mistake. 
15 - Do not trade positions too large relative to your available capital. 
16 - Do not invest all your money in one company. Your portfolio must be diversified. 
17 - The Greed to pick tops or bottoms is a usual error. Wait for the perfect and confirmed signal. 
18 - Do not make trading decisions based on a story you saw in the morning paper. The market many times has already discounted the information. 
19 - Review your missteps to improve your skills 

As i always say, with patience and discipline, you can take much more from the stock market than you ever gave. Trading stocks is not easy for beginners or professionals, it is really very hard and requires lot of attention and knowledge. If stock trading was easy, everyone would be doing it. You can be successful at the stock market, with patience, discipline and a good trade set-up. The key objective is to make money and not lose it.

My Watchlist for Monday, May 08

( click to enlarge )

BlackBerry Ltd (NASDAQ:BBRY) closed the week with a strong tone above the critical resistance level of 9.46 (the highs of December 2015). The stock has been trading in a strong up-trend momentum since late March, which remains technically intact. As you can see from the weekly momentum indicators on the chart above, they remain very constructive, suggesting that higher prices could unfold over the long term. The stock has been a nightmare for shorts in the past few weeks and I do believe that this rally could be just the beginning of something much bigger. The story of John Chen in Sybase was something EPIC, astounding, phenomenal, unbelievable, etc....for many analysts, and i got a feeling that Blackberry could be the next Sybase. As i have been saying, the more you short, the more you will need to cover. Double digits ahead.

Home Depot Inc (NYSE:HD) has been trading in a strong up-trend over the past few months, which is still firmly intact. Over the past two weeks the price has been trading sideways, consolidating between $153 and $156. At this point, all you can do is to wait for the breakout of the trading range.

( click to enlarge )

Merck & Co., Inc. (NYSE:MRK) momentum is coming back to this name. Daily momentum indicators are pointing to likely higher prices over the medium-term. Once a resistance of $64.12 is broken upwards the price can rebound to $65

( click to enlarge )

Xenon Pharmaceuticals Inc (NASDAQ:XENE) has been range bound for awhile. Looks ready to take out 4.25 soon. Daily MACD looks favorable too. Im long.

( click to enlarge )

Boeing Co (NYSE:BA) Poised to breakout to new highs. A high volume move through the 185.71 price level would be buyable.

( click to enlarge )

Affimed NV (NASDAQ:AFMD) is ready for a possible rally if breakout key resistance level of $2.30 with big volume. It is possible the stock is forming a large Bullish Flag pattern. The MACD Histogram is also showing a positive divergence. On the radar. Plenty of room to upside.

My Watchlist for Monday, February 06

( click to enlarge )

Twitter Inc (NYSE:TWTR) has been consolidating its gains over the last few days below its declining 100-day EMA. To confirm the reversal, the stock needs to close above this trigger level. If it can achieve this next week, then it will set the way for a move up to the 18.50 and subsequently 19 plus ranges. Watch this key level and play accordingly.

( click to enlarge )

Affimed NV (NASDAQ:AFMD) made a strong reversal candle on volume. If the stock can break Friday's high, I think we will rally back to the $2.60 level. Note: Friday after market close, Growth Equity Opportunities IV, LLC has filed an activist stake via 13D filing and has disclosed a 9% ownership stake. Make sure AFMD is on your radar next week, the stock could be on the verge of being discovered by investors again. Daily technical indicators are showing signs of a new upward momentum.

( click to enlarge )

Marinus Pharmaceuticals Inc (NASDAQ:MRNS) has moved back up from its support zone (EMA50) and could resume its uptrend next week future. I Identified this support zone in my analysis last week on twitter. If it can break above Friday's high accompanied with high volume, it could be the beginning of a powerful move to the upside. On watch.

( click to enlarge )

You need to watch Sierra Oncology Inc (NASDAQ:SRRA) stock closely next week, because it could break resistance soon. Buy point would be on the day it blows through $1.51 on heavy volume.

( click to enlarge )

TASER International, Inc. (NASDAQ:TASR) broke out of an important consolidation area last week on volume. This new rally should at least push the stock to $28.

( click to enlarge )

Opexa Therapeutics Inc (NASDAQ:OPXA) is building a nice formation under resistance at 1.13 (EMA50). Watch for a break through that price to indicate that another push higher will occur, targeting the 1.40 area. Technical indicators are pointing for a bullish move. Long setup on watch.

( click to enlarge )

Orexigen Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ:OREX) after a big surge in the beginning of the year, the stock has been consolidated in a Bullish pattern, creating a flag formation. 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 4.30 to confirm. On watch.

My Watchlist for Friday, November 18

( click to enlarge )

FORM Holdings Corp. (NASDAQ:FH) could be in the early stages of a technical breakout (descending channel) A break through today's high could lead this stock to 2.9-3.20 short-term. Technical indicators are showing signs of turning around. Plus, the insiders continue to buy stock. I bought back my shares today at $2.38 avg price that I had sold in the high 3.9's.

( click to enlarge )

I alerted Cyclacel Pharmaceuticals Inc (NASDAQ:CYCC) to my twitter followers (real-time alerts) before crowd when it was trading around the 3.46 levels. Traders who saw the gold in my alert and took advantage of CYCC 46% climb, then congratulations.

( click to enlarge )

Kitov Pharmaceuticals Holdings Ltd (NASDAQ:KTOV) is breaking out to the upside from its recent consolidation. Look for confirmation tomorrow.

( click to enlarge )

Uranium Resources, Inc. (NASDAQ:URRE) has had a strong week so far and broke through its declining 50 and 100 EMAs on today's session. The volume confirmed the breakout as it was greater than average. Look for the stock to test the prior highs of September.

( click to enlarge )

Affimed NV (NASDAQ:AFMD) Put this small bio tech stock at the top of your radar screen tomorrow. The declining 100-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. From a technical standpoint, I feel that there is a possibility for AFMD to go beyond $2.69 tomorrow.

( click to enlarge )

Ambarella Inc (NASDAQ:AMBA) Flagging here. If the stock can close above $62.98 tomorrow, then expect more upside.

My Watchlist for Friday, September 23

( click to enlarge )

Affimed NV (NASDAQ:AFMD) should be on your watch screen. Early this month stock broke out above the 50-day EMA on high volume and has been consolidating above that since then. It was indecisive today, closing the day at $3 but the volume was huge, which make me think that another breakout could be seen in the near term. The bias remains neutral in nearest term as price still trapped in range area of $2.86-$3.20 as you can see on my daily chart above. I feel there is a bigger move coming, which is why I will be watching the stock again on Friday.

( click to enlarge )

Adverum Biotechnologies Inc (NASDAQ:ADVM) The bulls are still facing a resistance at the declining 100-day EMA but I suspect the stock is about to break out higher. I wouldn't be surprised to see the stock test the $4.80 area at some point over the next few days. I really like this chart and expect to see another upside move soon.

( click to enlarge )

I keep watching FORM Holdings Corp. (NASDAQ:FH), waiting for this stock to break out of its Bullish consolidation. Go long on a close above 2.72

( click to enlarge )

Tokai Pharmaceuticals Inc (NASDAQ:TKAI) was one of the better picks today and I am looking for the stock to continue this move. The next resistance level beyond today's high is the declining 50-day EMA at 2.07. On watch.

( click to enlarge )

Ocwen Financial Corp (NYSE:OCN) is currently testing its horizontal resistance area around the 3.72 level. An upside breakout above this level could be the start of a new uptrend for this stock.
