Nantkwest Inc (NASDAQ:NK) seems to be a promising stock to follow in the coming sessions. ZNGA had a large spread and large volume today successfully breaking the downtrend that has been in place since mid-January. Also worth noting is the price which is now above the declining 9EMA. This denotes strength for the stock. If you paid attention to Friday's alert on twitter and got into Nantkwest at the opening bell, congratulations !!! The level of the daily technical indicators does suggest the short-term bounce should continue for a bit longer. If it can get back over 8.14 look for a move to resistance at 9.16 and then to 10.

Ciena Corporation (NYSE:CIEN) the $19.50 area is a critical resistance region that can determine overall bias for the stock in short-term. Bulls are now attacking the 50-day EMA, a break above could trigger a rally towards 20 resistance. Keep an eye on these levels.

Nice tweeted under 5.50 last week. ZIOPHARM Oncology Inc. (NASDAQ:ZIOP) closed strong today above the 20-day EMA for the first time since December. This momentum could push this stock much higher from here. Next resistance is now seen at 6.29 then 6.80.

Freeport-McMoRan Inc (NYSE:FCX) was able to get up through the key resistance level and sustained the move. This could be the start of a new trend higher. Watch the stock closely tomorrow.

AK Steel Holding Corporation (NYSE:AKS) is on the verge of a possible technical breakout. The stock closed slightly below the 100-day EMA on the daily chart. A breakout above this key EMA is a signal that there is a potential long-term trend change taking place.

( click to enlarge )

Stocks to Watch for August 26, 2013

( click to enlarge )

James River Coal Company (NASDAQ:JRCC) broke out on Friday from a symmetrical triangle accompanied with high volume. Based on the volume and spread alone, this is a "buy". However, next week you should observe if this bullishness is supported by further white candles with heavy volumes. The target price of this break out is at 2.60.

( click to enlarge )

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) The stock moved sideways this week, using $500 as support, which possibly indicates that the recent upward momentum is starting to lose some strength. Looking at the MACD and RSI, these major technical indicators have created a lower high , which means a negative divergence is happening and that the stock may start to move down anytime in the very near future. On the other hand, any break above 513.74 would signal a larger move to perhaps 525.

( click to enlarge )

Goldman Sachs Group Inc (NYSE:GS) still appears to be headed lower after closing the week below its major short-term moving averages. The daily indicators also suggest that further weakness lies ahead for the stock. The immediate support lies 156.51, if this is taken out then we could see further weakness back towards 150 and possibly even to the June lows at 148.71.

( click to enlarge )

Chesapeake Energy Corporation (NYSE:CHK) finally broke out of the flag formation today and may be headed higher from here.

( click to enlarge )

Gevo, Inc. (NASDAQ:GEVO) made a strong move higher today with good volume. The stock closed near its high of the day as well which is positive. I Need to see further upside confirmation before adding to current position.

( click to enlarge )

Ciena Corporation (NASDAQ:CIEN) The stock struggled to stay above its 50-day EMA at 20.95 and closed the week below it for the first time since May, which is a bearish signal and may push the price further down. The immediate support lies at 20.49 and below at 19. The resistance will be seen at 21.29 and 21.64. The AD line is decreasing, indicating money is flowing out of the stock.

Friday November 30th watchlist

( click to enlarge )

Bouncing just above the 20-day moving average. VirnetX Holding Corporation (NYSEAMEX:VHC) looks ready to bounce toward $37 again. I still think the stock could offer some opportunity, so I'll keep the stock position open.

( click to enlarge )

Ciena Corporation (NASDAQ:CIEN) - The stock has recovered nicely and closed today above its 200-day moving average on high volume. CIEN can potentially set-up very well for a swing-trade if it breaks through the resistance level at $15. There could be good upside in this trade, so watch the stock closely tomorrow.

( click to enlarge )

Sodastream International Ltd (NASDAQ:SODA) I will be watching the stock again on Friday for a continuation move through Wednesday’s highs of $38.95.The accumulation indicator on chart shows the strength of conviction behind this Bullish trend. Lets keep an eye on it.

( click to enlarge )

Las Vegas Sands Corp. (NYSE:LVS) needs to take out $47.2. The break of the resistance line with heavy volume should be the next buy point on LVS.

Stocks To Watch For November 13, 2012

( click to enlarge )

Zale Corporation (NYSE:ZLC) hit another new 52-week high on decent volume. If you're looking for a new entry point I'd wait for a dip near $7.12.

( click to enlarge )

Ciena Corporation (NASDAQ:CIEN) continues to inch higher but the volume was pretty light. At this point my aggressive buy the breakout trigger is at $15, with a stop loss at $13.98 and a target at $16.5. If triggered at $15 I want to use small positions.

( click to enlarge )

TiVo Inc.(NASDAQ:TIVO) does not seem to be as weak as the market and is holding its major moving averages quite well. Also the technical chart shows a golden cross a very bullish formation. Accumulation remains good and the stock could see a test of the recent highs in the near future. The shares are currently trading at $10.10 while the company has $4.36 per share in cash. With a mean analyst price target of $15, Wall Street believes TiVo has plenty of room to run.

( click to enlarge )

IMAX Corporation (NYSE:IMAX) is still showing relative strength with a 2.2% gain today. I want to jump on board with a dip back toward $22.8

( click to enlarge )

Finisar Corporation (NASDAQ:FNSR) is still drifting sideways under short-term resistance at $12.50. This daily pivot level serves as resistance and a close above $12.5 can change the downtrend with targets set for the second resistance of 13.

Top stocks pick for next week

( click to enlarge )

Jamba, Inc.(NASDAQ:JMBA) had a remarkable move up with very high volume this week breaking out of the sideways channel. This is currently a buy and the target price of this pattern is 2.6. At this point the stock is a candidate for a flag / pennant formation here. Watch out for the pennant / flag for the coming week. From a technical standpoint, the chart shows very bullish sign as 50-day moving average has just crossed on top over 200-day moving average with MACD above "0".

( click to enlarge )

Ciena Corporation (NASDAQ:CIEN) The $17 area has been proved to be a strong resistance. If the pullback continues in the next week for another day or two, look for the stock to find support around the $14.9-$15 range.

( click to enlarge )

Elan Corporation, plc (NYSE:ELN) has been pulling back steadily into support and finally got some buying today and may be ready to retrace some of the pullback. From a technical standpoint the stock still looks very strong with both 50-day and 200-day moving average going up while MACD is above 0. A test of the March top is on the cards.

( click to enlarge )

Career Education Corp.(NASDAQ:CECO) held its 50-day moving average on today's sell-off and closed the day gaining more than 5%. Investors and traders are buying back in after a healthy pull-back and I think the next move higher will take this stock much closer to my short term target of $8.5. Honestly, this stock will surprise many people in the weeks and months ahead IMO.

( click to enlarge )

Camelot Information Systems Inc (NYSE:CIS) is still in my watch list as it has not yet broken out of the symmetrical triangle. The technical divergences in some indicators are still intact and the stock has formed a strong support at 2.28/2.35.

6 Chart Set-ups to Watch on Thursday

( click to enlarge )

Pharmacyclics, Inc. (NASDAQ:PCYC) - After its long run up the stock finally had a pullback with most of market participants on holiday. However, Pharmacyclics shares hit a new all-time high of $59.39 before closing at $57.82. I will continue to watch the stock closely. The volume is still large so it could potentially break out again at any moment. If the pullback continues look for the 10-day moving average, currently located at $52.17 as the first area of support for the stock.

( click to enlarge )

From a technical standpoint, Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (NYSE:GS) broke out today above some past overhead resistance at $97.50 to $97.60. The next key technical levels that traders should be watching for are at the 50-day moving average of $99.44 and at $103.92, which is the next significant resistance.

( click to enlarge )

Looking at the technical chart, Ciena Corporation (NASDAQ:CIEN) is quickly approaching a big breakout if the stock can manage to trade above $17.39. A strong volume move above that level, could set the stock up to retest its June 2011 highs of $18.79.

( click to enlarge )

Juniper Networks, Inc. (NYSE:JNPR) - A push through the 16.2/16.25 level with some volume could break the downtrend line. Some technical indicators are displaying positive divergences as they failed to make new lows. I alerted this stock to my twitter follwers at $15.85.

( click to enlarge )

Tellabs, Inc. (NASDAQ:TLAB) saw continued buying pressure today. I think current levels offer a great chance to play a rebound in shares. The stock closed today at $3.41. From a technical standpoint the stock has build a support around $3.26 and $3.3 recently and do has the chance to go up. Any breakout above 50-day MA will be positive sign. Additionally, the technical chart displays a bullish MACD crossover and stochastics which indicate we have more room to the upside.

( click to enlarge )

Camelot Information Systems Inc (NYSE:CIS) Strong close above the 50-day MA. This will bring in new eyes on Thursday for sure.

Stocks to watch on Friday, Jun 08

( click to enlarge )

Zalicus Inc (NASDAQ:ZLCS) - In the past few days we have noticed that ZLCS has been on a consistent bullish uptick in market valuation. This technical set-up still showing us a tremendous opportunity to potentially acquire the stock while the momentum is on the upswing. More importantly, ZLCS past the important resistance level of the 200-day MA for the first time since July 2011, which provides investors with more than a greater opportunity to witness a rally in market valuation on shares. Today’s high was $1.19, which is resistance for the follow through move on Friday. If the stock does break resistance, expect to see another strong upside move.

( click to enlarge )

Ciena Corporation (NASDAQ:CIEN) is currently above its 200-day moving average of $13.62 and should find resistance at its 50-day MA of $14.26. Short-term technical indicators are strong. If the stock can break today’s high of $14.28, we should see a strong follow through move. CIEN will move very quickly, so keep a very close eye on the stock.

( click to enlarge )

Santarus, Inc. (NASDAQ:SNTS) has been trading a very tight range for a few days right up at resistance. If it clears resistance the move may be powerful. On watch.

Stock Watch List for Friday May 11, 2012

( click to enlarge )

Delta Air Lines, Inc. (NYSE:DAL) On watchlist no trigger yet. The stock has consolidated the past two weeks. If DAL can break through $11.34, the stock should make a strong upside move. On the other hand, if the stock does not break resistance, be very careful and use your stops for the downside. Shareholders may remain invested with a stop-loss at $10.14

( click to enlarge )

News Corp (NASDAQ:NWSA) has a Bullish looking stock chart, the stock price broke out from the horizontal resistance mark around $20.4/share Thursday on heavy volume. The stock made a new 52-week high today, but was not able to close near this high. However, I'm buyer of NWSA once it breaks Thursday’s high for the follow through move. Long-term investors may hold with a stop at 18.65.

( click to enlarge )

JPMorgan Chase & Co. (NYSE:JPM) - The company is falling in the after-hours session after said its chief investment office had significant mark to market losses and that legal losses of $4.2 billion are reasonably possible. In addition, Standard & Poor's downgraded the banking giant as residential mortgage specialist to "average" from "above average". Short term support for the stock is in the 37 to 38.12 region.

( click to enlarge )

Career Education Corp. (NASDAQ:CECO) The stock closed slightly up on Thursday and should continue higher on Friday. The company reported earnings after the close and the market loved what they saw. CECO is trading up after hours and I expect it to gap open on Friday. I'm using the 50 dma at 7.62 as next resistance level.

( click to enlarge )

Shares of Ciena Corporation (NASDAQ:CIEN) are in a bearish trading condition. The fall in the stock has been extended by the violation of the support line at $13.4 and as long as the stock trades below this line stay bearish, this bearish trading condition will prevail. Fresh investments in CIEN are recommended only on a daily close above this level.
