Stock Market Ideas for Wednesday - Knight Capital Group Inc. and Microsoft Corporation

Chart courtesy of www.stockcharts.com ( click to enlarge )

NITE has a Bullish looking stock chart, price broke out from the horizontal resistance mark around $19.34/share Thursday on heavy volume. The stock made a new 52-week high again today, but was not able to close near this high. However, I'm buyer of NITE once it breaks Tuesday’s high of $20.78 for the follow through move. Technically, the stock is in a Breakout mode. Long-term investors may hold with a stop at 19.34.

Shares of Microsoft are in a good short-term uptrend. The price has bounced off the low of 22.90 touched in the middle of August. The price can easily head towards the $25 zone. If this zone is surpassed, getting to $25.58 would be a possibility. The technical daily chart shows the stock is in a bullish trend as MACD is high above signal line and K line is also on top over D line. Keep watching MSFT and you should get a good trading opportunity soon.

Stock Picks and Trade Ideas for the week ahead - NITE,TRN, TTEK, AMZN, LDK, RIMM

Chart courtesy of stockcharts ( click to enlarge )

RIMM broke out of its ascending triangle on strong volume and hit my price target in the $130’s. Currently RIMM has consolidated into a tight pattern and could be bought for a trade on a break of $135.85. This is not a swing candidate, but a day trade candidate on a break of $135.85 on strong volume. The technical chart shows the stock is in a strong Bull market as the stock is above 50 and 200 day moving average and both going up. In addition, MACD still show buy signal as MACD is still above signal line.

LDK is in an ascending triangle pattern with strong support at the uptrend line and resistance at the horizontal line. Buy point is on the day it breaks $37.50 on heavy volume.

AMZN - Amazon has come down a bit here in recent days. It appears that the correction may be close to an end since it is approaching of its main support at $70. This may be a good spot to get in, with a stop under the recent lows if the timing is wrong.

TTEK - The stock looks to be consolidating nicely since its last breakout on big volume. Technically, the stock could go either way but my bias is to the upside given the strong earnings reported. In addition, the chart shows very positive signal as the 50 day moving average is near to cross over 200 day moving average to form Golden Cross, a very Bullish signal.

TRN is in a bullish pennant triangle formation with resistance at $32.60 and a price target of about $34.70. The technical chart shows TRN is in a strong bull market rally as MACD is on top of signal line and K line is on top of D line. Plus, the long term trend is also bullish as the stock is above 50 day and 200 day moving averages. This is just a few of my longs that I have kept.

NITE - The stock may find support at $26.2 while its 20-day moving average of $28.19 might act as the potential resistance level. Present technical indicators are not in favor of Bulls, however buy point on stock is on the day it breaks the short term resistance of its 20-day moving average.
