Lots of great setups for next week

( click to enlarge )

Lion Biotechnologies Inc (NASDAQ:LBIO) definitely broke the downtrend channel and closed above the 9 & 13 EMAs for the first time since mid-July. Looking at the daily technical indicators, the momentum oscillators have now turned higher and especially the Slow stochastic indicator has issued a buy signal. Plus, the MACD and CMF show increasing upward momentum on daily chart and rising volume inflow. If momentum continues as I expect next week, there are lot of profits left on the table for traders to capitalize on. The price can move up to $8/8.50 in the short-term. This stock is on High alert for Monday.

Baytex Energy Corp (NYSE:BTE) finally closed back above the $5 level Friday on strong volume. The stock was trading as high as $17 back in June and it appears that a massive potential bounce could be imminent. The RSI has just reversed off the 20% line and the MACD had a positive crossover. These two momentum indicators along with the rising STO is signalling that smart money has started to re-enter the stock. Plus, there was a steady increase in volume towards the end of the day, leading me to believe this stock is starting to attract some serious attention again. Stay tuned.

BlackBerry Ltd (NASDAQ:BBRY) With a high short interest ratio (short interest/average daily volume) of around 21.03 (days to cover) this stock is at the perfect price where positive news could send it on a big run. Volume is starting to pick up again and there could be a decent short covering if it clears next week the $7.50 level.

GoPro Inc (NASDAQ:GPRO) I think the stock may have bottomed and could be poised for a bounce back next week. Looking at the daily technical chart MACD-histogram is sloping up, indicating that the "bears" are losing momentum and RSI has just bounced off the 30 line (extreme oversold territory). If the stock price breaks the $50 level in the next sessions momentum traders are likely to send the stock up to $54.5 (100EMA). Keep it on your watch list going forward.

Very bullish action on Lifelock (NYSE:LOCK) Friday. The stock made a very significant move in the last trading session closing above its 20-day EMA which could be signs of a bottom for the stock. Supporting this bullish bias are the technical indicators MACD, RSI and Slow Sto all showing buy signal. The stock seems to be forming a potential rounding bottom pattern and its neckline is around 8.60. A close above this area would have positive implications and could drive the stock up to $10-10.64 in the short-term.. Keep the stock on your radar.

The area comprehended between $9.8 and $10 represents a heavy resistance for shares of Ariad Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:ARIA). A close above this key resistance area would have positive implications and could drive the stock much higher. Keep the stock on your radar.

ZIOPHARM Oncology Inc. (NASDAQ:ZIOP) rallied with the market last week but the bounce stalled around the 9-9.30 level, which was a strong support for stock in the past now resistance. Short-term technical indicators are improving and the MACD shows a possible bullish crossover. If the stock can break above this key resistance area, it's worth a trade. ZIOP will move very quickly, so keep a very close eye on the stock.

Stocks to keep an eye on August 24, 2015

( click to enlarge )

Lifelock Inc (NYSE:LOCK) appears to have broken out of a base formation, spiking above the resistance line. The stock closed Friday up 36c to 8.06 and is setting up for a possible move to the 10 area. A clear break above 8.65 could lead to short covering and potentially a short squeeze. Momentum indicators are bouncing off oversold conditions and CMF is very positive (strong and getting stronger).

( click to enlarge )

3D Systems Corporation (NYSE:DDD) showed relative strength on high volume Friday compared to rest of market, which is a very good sign. If momentum continues as I expect next week, we could have formed a double bottom formation here. The indicators are showing signs of upward reversal. A rally above the 9EMA can push the stock higher to 14.30 and 15.15 in the medium term. Next supports are at 11.82 and 11.66.

( click to enlarge )

Juno Lighting (NASDAQ:JUNO) I feel this is a potential bounce candidate if market bounces next week. Note the positive divergences on the MACD Histogram and the CMF.

( click to enlarge )

Ampio Pharmaceuticals Inc (NYSEMKT:AMPE) Nice Bullish candle Friday on above average volume. It has a gap and 100EMA declining resistance above. At this point and given the current stock levels, it is very important for it to break 3.19 level very soon.

( click to enlarge )

Net 1 UEPS Technologies Inc (NASDAQ:UEPS) broke out on Friday but was unable to sustain those prices (due to the market conditions) and has moved back within the channel. As long as the price trades above the 20EMA support, its ongoing intermediate uptrend will stay intact.

( click to enlarge )

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) has a strong support between 104.93 and 103.32 which can not easily be broken IMO however the bias remains bearish in nearest term. Immediate resistance is seen around 107.5. A clear break above that area on a close basis could lead price to neutral zone in nearest term testing 112. The stock is very oversold, so a pullback is on the cards.

( click to enlarge )

OHR Pharmaceutical Inc (NASDAQ:OHRP) With Soros on the list and with so many catalysts going forward I will keep my shares for the time being. Worth reading "Analysts Bullish on OHR Pharma Amid Positive Study" The strong accumulation in late July has shown funds moving into the company.

Stocks to Watch for May 16, 2013


( click to enlarge )

Shares of Lifelock Inc (NYSE:LOCK) are starting to heat up again and are worth watching. If volume can pick up I think this stock can break through resistance at $10 and re-test its recent highs around 10.2

( click to enlarge )

Pacific Biosciences of California (NASDAQ:PACB) has been consolidating a pretty tight range above the 200-day exponential moving average. Volume is starting to build and it may attempt to break out over recent highs. Let's keep an eye on her.

( click to enlarge )

GT Advanced Technologies Inc (NASDAQ:GTAT) If the stock can break out above 4.24 with heavy volume, I think GTAT could shoot up to test 4.56 level. There looks to be good upside potential, so watch the stock very closely on Thursday.

( click to enlarge )

Ford Motor Company (NYSE:F) closed at 14.67 an increase by 40 cents or 2.8%. During today's trading session, the stock recorded a new 52-week high at 14.77 with a trading volume of 56 million shares. This looks to be a good breakout, so watch the stock very closely over the next few trading sessions.

Avnet, Inc. (NYSE:AVT) had a great day on Wednesday. $33.94 is the next resistance level.

( click to enlarge )

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) is looking pretty bearish. If the weakness continues and the stock breaks the support at $416, there will be a good chance that the stock will test the next support level at $390 on a pessimistic scenario.
