Stock Picks and Trade Ideas for Thursday - ITWO, UBB, JOYG, RIMM, ESLR

My new big pick is ESLR. Evergreen Solar, Inc. develops, manufactures, and markets solar power products primarily in Europe and the United States. It utilizes its proprietary ?String Ribbon' technology process in manufacturing ribbons of crystalline silicon, which are then cut into wafers. These wafers are the primary components of photovoltaic cells that are used to produce solar panels. The company principally offers solar wafer, a flat piece of crystalline silicon that can be processed and assembled into a solar cell; solar cell, a device made from a silicon wafer that converts sunlight into electricity; and solar panel, an assembly of solar cells that are electrically interconnected and laminated for electric power generation, such as on-grid and off-grid generation. Evergreen sells its products through distributors, systems integrators, and value-added resellers. It has a strategic partnership with Q-Cells AG. The company was founded in 1994 and is headquartered in Marlboro, Massachusetts. Looking at the daily chart of the company, the stock has been consolidating in a flag Bullish pattern, which was broken today. Currently brokers are recommending this stock, with five "strong buys", eight "buys", eleven "holds", one "underperform" and just one "sell". Early in the morning, Kaufman Bros. initiated ESLR with a BUY and a price target of $18, citing that Evergreen Solar is well positioned to take advantage of a decline in raw material costs because it makes its own wafers on its own equipment. Over the past 52 weeks, the stock has traded between $7.52 and $18.85. ESLR remains strong and a break above $12.12 would be Bullish. In addition KD line shows positive signal as K line is rising on top over D line and MACD is above the sell line. Honestly, speaking ESLR is one of my favourite stocks in the solar sector. Keep an eye on it !!!!

RIMM has held up better than the other stocks and bounced off suport with expanding volume. The daily chart shows the stock is on a strong bull market as the stock is trading above 50 day and 200 day moving with both moving average pointing upwards. Other indicators such as KD line also show buy signal as K line has crossed on top over D line.

JOYG will push through resistance at $77.97 ( 20-day moving average ) if Nasdaq makes a move up.

UBB is consolidating between $140 and $150 and today upside volume was above average last week. Watch $151 for a Breakout.

ITWO - The stock broke symmetrical triangle resistance with a long white candlestick today. This is a bullish pattern and a move above $11.50 would provide confirmation. Let's keep an eye on her.

HOT Breakout stocks to watch next week - TRN, NVDA, TTEK, GILD, UBB, MVL

Chart courtesy of stockcharts ( click to enlarge )

MVL - From the daily chart above, you can see how the stock broke through an ascending triangle pattern to the upside, by breaking $29.80 which was the major resistance over the past days. The stock has been doing well recently as K line is on top of D line with MACD on top of signal line. Now that the stock is above 50 day moving average and 200 day moving average and above the resistance more buyers should be coming.

UBB - The stock broke through $145 resistance on Wednesday, and is trading above all of three major moving averages. Plus, the MACD is positive and rising. Nevertheless, there is a need for some profit-taking, for some consolidation from these high levels, and this situation might have been started on Friday, according to the latest candle on the chart. We could see a retest of the broken resistance, turning into support, in the $145 area.

GILD - The stock broke through its resistance to another new high on Friday, and is trading above all three major moving averages. The MACD is positive and rising, the RSI is over 50 and also rising, and the stock is trading over both it's 50 day moving average and 200 day moving average, which is bullish. In addition KD also show very bullish sign.

TTEK - Tetra Tech broke out firmly and on volume. The stock is overbought and risk is high at this stage but it’s awfully difficult to argue with progress. For those who did not have a chance to buy the stock, any pull back is your buying opportunity.

After two month of consolidating, NVDA finally broke through its range and had a very nice up day on Friday. The stock was up $1.02 on 2x normal daily. The stock is set to hit $23 a share.

TRN - Stock broke through resistance on Thursday, but was not able to gather must momentum on today session, It appears there is some profit-taking active now. I expected some weakness in the next few days to leave the overbought conditions, which I think it will be a great buying opportunity for the bulls. I still think this is a great stock to buy. You get to buy into the growth of wind and at the same time get the security of a company that has strong fundamentals. Hold with a stop-loss at $32.21.
