Stocks to Watch for September 03, 2015

First Solar, Inc. (NASDAQ:FSLR) Flagging here. The stock has the perfect set up to make a nice run. The break out point would be at $48.50. From a technical standpoint, it is trading above 9/13-day and 20-day EMAs with all short-term moving averages showing signs of stabilization. In addition, the daily MACD is on the verge of giving a Buy signal as well.

Keep a close eye on Lion Biotechnologies Inc (NASDAQ:LBIO) tomorrow. The stock looks right on the verge of a breakout. I think in the short term it could see $8 but let's see a test and close above of $7.17 first.

King Digital Entertainment PLC (NYSE:KING) Building a base/bottoming the past 2 weeks. Lets see if it breaks above the 13-day EMA. This name has seen bullish options flow lately.

( click to enlarge )

Micron Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:MU) had a nice move on the upside today and looks like it wants to go higher. Resistance stays at $16.69, which is a key resistance area that the stock needs to break.

( click to enlarge )

IsoRay, Inc.(NYSEMKT:ISR) had a volatile but indecisive movement today. The short-term bias seems more to the upside right now, testing 1.68. Moves of key indicators on daily charts suggest continuation of positive bias for the stock. This stock has a history of big rallies.

Stocks to keep an eye on April 15, 2015

( click to enlarge )

United States Steel Corporation (NYSE:X) appears ready for a breakout above key resistance at 26.07 area. If breakout above the 100-day exponential moving average occurs, I expect to see the stock move toward the 27.5-28 area.

( click to enlarge )

On my watch list for Wednesday. Viggle Inc (NASDAQ:VGGL) looks to have bottomed. The stock broke the $1.49 resistance level (20EMA) today on strong volume and could eventually rally up to test its 50-day EMA tomorrow. Looking at the technical daily chart the near-term outlook is very positive and a move to the 1.88-2 range appears likely. In addition, MACD indicates positive momentum, while RSI is also gaining strength. Let's keep an eye on her.

( click to enlarge )

King Digital Entertainment PLC (NYSE:KING) looking strong. With almost 28% of the float short, the stock should continue to move higher, despite the fact that it has already enjoyed strong gains.

( click to enlarge )

58 dot com Inc (NYSE:WUBA) hits a new 52 week high and held up very well when the nasdaq was tanking. It will likely have the attention of the swing-traders in the next days. I will wait for a pullback, if it comes.

( click to enlarge )

Over the past eight weeks, shares of Sirius XM Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:SIRI) have been consolidating in a sideways range near its all-time high. This price action and has led to the formation of a large bull flag on its daily chart. The stock is likely to breakout to new highs in the coming sessions, so keep it in your radar screen.

( click to enlarge )

ZIOPHARM Oncology Inc.(NASDAQ:ZIOP) Strong Bullish candle on high volume today. Looks like higher prices to come. The RSI also confirms the new uptrend and the stock trades comfortably above all EMAs. Next resistance is located at $11.98, while immediate support has moved up to $10.98.

( click to enlarge )

GoPro Inc (NASDAQ:GPRO) is trading higher in post-market session following an after-hours upgrade from Piper Jaffray's Erinn Murphy. The analyst now rates GoPro shares as an Overweight, and set a $55 price target on the stock. Currently, shares are higher by 2%, trading around $45.3, they ended the regular session at $44.48. Following the investors reaction in the extended trading we should see a gap up tomorrow morning. It will be important to see if the stock will have legs to break and close above $46. A breakout above this level would constitute a technical entry for the short term trader looking for a quick trade.

Stocks to keep an eye on April 13, 2015

( click to enlarge )

FireEye Inc (NASDAQ:FEYE) which had been flagging for weeks off its upmove from mid-February, from the 36.8 area to around 46.50, broke out of the bullish flag on Friday with a spike in volume. MACD starts the bullish crossover. Immediate resistance at $44 followed by $46.44 (Previous High). Technically the chart is very bullish. This will be a stock to watch going forward.

( click to enlarge )

Shares of Symantec Corporation (NASDAQ:SYMC) soared 5.59% on Friday to 25.58 per share on report of potential Veritas sale. According to Wall Street Journal, the data-storage and recovery business could fetch more than $8 billion in a sale. Daily technical chart looks really positive as the stock has just crossed above all EMAs with MACD rising on top of signal line. In addition, since RSI has not reached overbought level yet, there is still plenty of room for the stock to go up.

( click to enlarge )

King Digital Entertainment PLC (NYSE:KING) is on the way to the price target of $21 (Inverted Head and Shoulders) after breaking the Neckline. A decisive rally above 16.93 next week will accelerate the stock higher to the 18-19 zone in the short-term. The stock is technically bullish.

( click to enlarge )

3D Systems Corporation (NYSE:DDD) has formed a Double Bottom pattern. The stock price is currently testing the $30 level. A breakout from this area will stop the down trend and the first price target is $33. The next resistance after $33 is about $37.57, the 200-day EMA resistance. MACD continues to show a clear positive divergence making higher highs and higher lows.

( click to enlarge )

GoPro Inc (NASDAQ:GPRO) is currently testing down trend channel resistance. This level is also the 50-day EMA. A break out above the upper line of the channel & 50EMA, will be the beginning of an up trend. The MACD has just crossed the zero line.

( click to enlarge )

BlackBerry Ltd (NASDAQ:BBRY) rebounded nicely from the lower line of the range area around 8.60. Technically and fundamentally Blackberry looks good for a bullish trade. Daily MACD is back above signal line and RSI is about to clear 50% level, which would reflect loss of the prevailing bearish momentum. Long setup on watch.

Stocks to keep an eye on April 09, 2015

( click to enlarge )

King Digital Entertainment PLC (NYSE:KING) Today's pop broke the neckline of a Bullish Inverted head and shoulders pattern that I have been mentioning in my recent posts. Daily technical chart shows the stock is still in a very strong bull market with MACD on top of signal line and 50-day EMA on top of 200-day EMA. Tomorrow, keep an eye for a possible breakout over $16.93

( click to enlarge )

Digital Ally, Inc. (NASDAQ:DGLY) still looks pretty good on the daily chart with volume expanding as it moves higher. Stock continues to look bullish and had a decent day today. Could squeeze over 14.50

( click to enlarge )

SolarCity Corp (NASDAQ:SCTY) has recovered nicely and can potentially set-up very well for a swing-trade if the stock breaks through the resistance level at $54.80. Technical indicators are becoming more favorable with MACD and RSI rising. There could be good upside in this trade, so watch the stock closely on Thursday.

( click to enlarge )

GoPro Inc (NASDAQ:GPRO) is setting up for higher prices IMHO, 50-day EMA is also a key resistance to break thru. As I mentioned on Twitter, I keep holding my long position waiting for something big. Special points of interest on daily chart: Price has formed a very crucial and strong support around the $40 levels and is trading above. MACD and ADX are showing a positive divergences. Watch to see what it does here.

( click to enlarge )

Qualys Inc (NASDAQ:QLYS) caught my eye today because the chart has a bullish posture without looking very overbought. The stock broke out of a consolidation range as it closed up $3.35 on the day. Wednesday’s high was $52.96 which is resistance for Thuersday’s continuation move. As long as the stock stay above 50 area, the bullish scenario is still intact.

( click to enlarge )

Rambus Inc. (NASDAQ:RMBS) looks ripe for an explosive move upwards. The stock had a strong bullish momentum on today, gaining 5% andclosing near the highs of the session. Very strong. So, with the bulls pushing shares higher, I expect the stock to see a continuation of high volume and price appreciation in the coming sessions. The trend is bullish and a move to the $14.50 appears likely.

Potential breakout setups for next week

( click to enlarge )

Nuance Communications Inc. (NASDAQ:NUAN) is poised to break this triangle formation and could trade higher. On the upside, it may lead towards 14.60 levels and a breach of this area could force it up towards 15.01 levels. On the other hand, any dip below 14 levels could direct it towards 13.75 levels. The technical daily indicators are looking bullish. The MACD indicator is above the signal line and rising in positive territory. The RSI and slow stochastic are inside their bullish regions.

( click to enlarge )

King Digital Entertainment PLC (NYSE:KING) The potential inverted head and shoulders pattern is still valid on daily chart but we need a breach of the neckline near 16.45/51 area to confirm. The target of this bullish pattern is the $20.5/21 area, which coincides with the target of JPMorgan. While the RSI shows overbought conditions, current strong momentum likely to continue. Keep on watch for the break on volume and go long.

( click to enlarge )

Twitter Inc (NYSE:TWTR) has been consolidating after a mid-March surge from around 46 to 51.87 in 5 sessions. The stock is in a bullish flag/channel with price above all moving averages. MACD and RSI are both trending upward on the daily chart. Keep this one on your watch list, it could be setting up to break out of this flag.

( click to enlarge )

Arca Biopharma Inc (NASDAQ:ABIO) Another one that looks like a potential long opportunity. The stock pulled back on Thursday but did not attract many sellers, the volume was significantly low when compared to the rally seen the day before on Wednesday. From a technical stanpoint, the stock seems to be forming a Bullish inverted Head and Shoulders pattern with the neckline near the DT line. Additionally it has an up-trending MACD, indicating accumulation and the accumulation/distribution line also spiked higher on Wednesday. I believe the stock is on it's way to go break its 200-day EMA, which could accelerate the move up and the breakout. My stop loss on this will be the 0.70 level.

( click to enlarge )

Altisource Portfolio Solutions S.A. (NASDAQ:ASPS) had a remarkable rally Thursday on solid volume. Watch this downtrend line carefully here. A move above $15.35 (20-day EMA & DT) could spark a nice short-squeeze.

( click to enlarge )

JD (NASDAQ:JD) Technical daily chart looks pretty good. Accumulation continues to trend higher despite recent pullback. A break of this small bull flag would target a move to 31 on a continuation higher. Initial stop loss should be set below the 20-day EMA in 28.9 area.

( click to enlarge )

NetApp Inc. (NASDAQ:NTAP) After getting punished lower in the past four months, the price has been stabilizing and starting to build optimism along with the RSI giving positive signals. 35.88/36 zone is pretty much the pivot here. If it breaks and close above, we could see 37.50 quickly.

( click to enlarge )

On the daily time frame, I would like to point out some interesting signals on the long-term chart for Rambus Inc. (NASDAQ:RMBS). We have a potential "W" bottom here with the Accumulation/ Distribution line making new highs. This suggests that the stock has been accumulated for the last 3 months. Watch for a break this flag to enter longs for a 13.3/50 price target in the near term.

( click to enlarge )

VirnetX Holding Corporation (NYSEMKT:VHC) stock showed buying strength all day on Thursday and has regained the 100-day exponential moving average for the first time in over 3 weeks. If it breaks Thursday's high next week then expect $6.9-7 on upside as indicators showing signs of reversal. Stop loss 5.83

Stocks to keep an eye on April 01, 2015


( click to enlarge )

King Digital Entertainment PLC (NYSE:KING) is one of my favorite stocks in the gaming sector. In a research note published in the mid of this month, JPMorgan reiterated an overweight rating and set a $20 price target on shares, citing that the company will experience a significant growth this year with a strong outlook on the Candy franchise and potential game launches. Additionally, the analyst Doug Anmuth raised the 2015 EPS estimate from $1.99 to $2.03. From a technical standpoint, I continue to see a potential Inverted Head and Shoulders pattern on daily. The stock closed above the $16 level today on high volume and is registering a strong Bullish signal on MACD. Let’s see whether the price can gather enough momentum to break through the neckline at $16.52. If the Bulls are able to push through this level, there will be another rally towards $17. The target of this possible inverted head and shoulder pattern is around $21.

( click to enlarge )

Rosetta Genomics Ltd. (NASDAQ:ROSG) had a nice surge a few weeks ago and has been in a correction mode. The stock is displaying upside momentum again and is poised to move higher from these levels. Nearest resistance for the stock is at $3.25 (200EMA). If this level is crossed and the stock is able to sustain above this level, then it might go to $3.75. Short-term technical indicators are improving and MACD is about to trigger a buy signal while RSI is neutral at 49. Keep an eye on ROSG tomorrow.

( click to enlarge )

Shares of PhotoMedex Inc (NASDAQ:PHMD) soar today on good news. The US Federal Court dismisses suit against the company. The stock closed again above the $2 level on decent volume, a buy signal and an indication that the price may have finally reached its bottom. Next resistance level is $2.58 (100-day EMA). I will keep on eye on this stock tomorrow.

( click to enlarge )

Genetic Technologies Limited (NASDAQ:GENE) Good pattern and accumulation here, but I need to see further upside confirmation before adding a new long position.

( click to enlarge )

Second Sight Medical Products Inc (NASDAQ:EYES) is another stock I am watching closely. It can pop big time on any positive news. The technical daily chart is showing a possible falling wedge pattern. In addition, %K line has just crossed on top over %D line showing a buy signal as ROC is at oversold level. MACD Histogram is also showing positive divergences. This is a bullish pattern that requires confirmation with an upside breakout.

( click to enlarge )

Ambarella Inc (NASDAQ:AMBA) made a new 52-week high today, hitting $77.39, before closing the day at $75.71. I will watch the stock price tomorrow and buy above Tuesday’s high.

( click to enlarge )

Lumber Liquidators Holdings Inc (NYSE:LL) is recovering quickly from its recent bottom with MACD moving upwards. The stock looks like it wants to breakout of this small range, but has not been able to gain the needed momentum. You should keep this stock on your screen radar.

Stocks to keep an eye on March 30, 2015


( click to enlarge )

BlackBerry Ltd (NASDAQ:BBRY) posted better-than-expected quarterly earnings yesterday, showing clear signs that its turnaround efforts is giving the first results even with less revenue. They are doing a great job avoiding any cash burn during the business transition. The best part of the report in my opinion was the software revenue that rose 20% from a year earlier, offering signs of the ongoing transition to a more software-driven revenue stream. In addition, the company reported positive cash flow of $76 million in the quarter and its cash position is now $3.27 billion. I continue to believe in Blackberry and in its management, I don’t care about what some analysts are saying due to its conflict of interests. My long term investment requires patience but it will pay off someday. I want to double my money in this one as I have been saying for weeks on twitter. Im very familiar with Blackberry products and all its features, therefore I know in what im currently investing. I could be wrong, I could lose my money but the risk/reward it seems favorable to me. John Chen is doing the same work in controlling operating expenses and eliminating its cash burn like he did at Sybase in the beginning. Im here for the long run. From a technical standpoint, the chart is displaying positive divergences on momentum indicators and with the stock oversold, these are the perfect conditions for a short-term rally IMHO. The RSI has reversed the course and the daily MACD is starting to curl up, suggesting that a positive crossover could be coming soon. I would look for a move up to $10.06 resistance soon.

( click to enlarge )

Facebook Inc (NASDAQ:FB) On the daily chart price has back tested successfully the breakout zone. Let's see if the price can hold above this key support area next week and move higher.

( click to enlarge )

Rambus Inc. (NASDAQ:RMBS) has a very interesting daily chart and could have a bigger move soon. The break of the next key resistance line with heavy volume should be the next buy point on Rambus. If it clears resistance at $12.88, the move may be powerful. Despite recent decline, the daily RSI remains above 60 levels and may support the bullish argument here. Additionally, the A/D line still show the stock is on the positive swing. On watch.

( click to enlarge )

Rite Aid Corporation (NYSE:RAD) looks like it's getting ready to move. The price broke through its previous resistance point of 8.48, made a new 52-week high but failed to close above, however this was the first signal that I was looking for since a while. On the grand scale, in white, you will see a large cup and handle pattern and if broken the target will be around $12. Next key resistance is now located at $8.73 (yesterday's highs), a break above this level will confirm the bullish trend and the following uptrend will take price up to $9 zone.

( click to enlarge )

Ibio Inc (NYSEMKT:IBIO) should see some trading activity on Monday as investors interest continues to increase after yesterday's Reuters news wire: British Ebola patient cured after experimental treatment. MIL 77 is a close relative of another experimental medicine ZMapp. Resistance for the move is 78c (100EMA). This stock will move quickly and is very volatile, so be careful with your share size and entry price. I bought some shares on Friday..Let's see..This chart definetely looks like a bottom chart to me.

( click to enlarge )

I've been stating fordays that King Digital Entertainment PLC (NYSE:KING) was trying to bottom. Last week the stock resumed a fresh up move after 2 weeks of consolidation and seems poised for a breakout above the 16 mark. On the grand scale, we can also see that there is also a Bullish inverted head and shoulders pattern developing with the neckline around 16.10. The recent high volume along with positive crossover of MACD on the daily charts suggest fresh buying interest in the stock. I'm Bullish on KING.

( click to enlarge )

ZIOPHARM Oncology Inc. (NASDAQ:ZIOP) had a signficant pullback last week that was stopped by its 50-day EMA at 10.62. Price needs to hold this key support area and break out above the 20-day EMA at 12.24 for a potential short-term uptrend move. The daily momentum indicators are showing mixed-signals with a positive bias.

( click to enlarge )

Twitter Inc (NYSE:TWTR) Price has been having wild swings since it broke the $50 level. The outlook remains positive supported by the EMAs and momentum indicators. Watch for a break out back above the 51.87 level which is Wednesday's high.

( click to enlarge )

Sirius XM Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:SIRI) has been in correction mode the last couple of weeks. It needs to sustain above $3.81 to make a move to its recent high of $4.04. If it does not catch support here, look for support at the 100-day EMA at 3.70. On a short term basis, MACD and RSI show bearish signs.

( click to enlarge )

From my point of view, I think Kite Pharma Inc (NASDAQ:KITE) may break down here. Up/Down volume pattern indicates that the stock is under Distribution IMHO. The stock price closed fractionaly last week above the major support at $58, but any close below this level could have further negative implications for the stock, and a move to $50 cannot be ruled. At this time the price is still trading below short-term EMAs. In addition, falling MACD, now below 0, also indicates bearish trend. Fresh long positions, should be initiated only when the stock moves above $65.
