Stock Picks and Trade Ideas for Wednesday - CSCO, JOSB, OTTR, FSLR

The US markets still showing clear signs of uncertainties and fears just a day after the oil shot to the 120 dollars per barrel, which caused a new wave of fears of economic recession in the U.S. Oil prices shot Monday in an unprecedented way in New York, rising more than $16 in a single day to $120.92, pressured by the decline in the dollar and technical factors. Prices today rectified yesterday's strong recovery but were also pressured by expectations that the U.S. economy will not escape an economic recession, which could lead to a reduction in demand. With fuel prices high, the markets fear that the plan presented on Thursday will not be sufficient to protect the economy from a recession. The uncertain remain well present in the market and all cautions must be taken in consideration.

CSCO continues to consolidate within a triangle and the subquent break will determine the next move. The near-term trend does not appear bullish, therefore there is no reason to invest in this stock now. Fresh exposures may be considered once the stock stabilises and gets into an upward trending mode.

The short term scenario is not encouraging for the investors. OTTR has broken uptrend support in the $41.50 to $40.60 range. In other words, the long-term trend has turned negative. This is the confirmation of the trend reversal. We might see some bounce up at this level. However don’t take risks on this as it could be deadly if the bear decided to take out the support line again.

Very bullish action on JOSB this week. She's extended but no one seems to care. I'll be watching her carefully for any possible opportunities.

FSLR - The near-term outlook is bearish and the stock could drop to the $192-200 range. Technicals are currently oversold but remain neutral to bearish signaling sideways to lower prices possible in the near term. Only a close above $246 will confirm the short term low for the stock. I'm looking for a good trade if the prices close above $246. On the downside the next target is $200.

Today volume was huge !!! Technically the chart shows this is the time to place your bet here as many technical indicators show buy signal. MACD and the signal line, for instance are back above 0 indicating Strong Buy signal. In addition the stock is back above 200 day moving average again - another positive sign.

In addition with MACD on top of 0 showing bull market and KD at high level the stock should kept going for now. Let's keep an eye on her.
