Alon USA Energy, Inc. (NYSE:ALJ) is on the verge of breaking above the neckline of the Cup and Handle pattern. Long setup on watch.

XOMA Corporation (NASDAQ:XOMA poked through its EMA100 on good volume today. $6.28 is an important resistance that once broken, will set off a huge run up in stock, the 1st target would be $7.62 which is the high of November 2016. Chart shows a stock under accumulation.

( click to enlarge )

Applied Optoelectronics Inc (NASDAQ:AAOI) Still holding nicely its rising EMA50. Important to see how this acts over the next few days. If we break above 54, we can run to 56 easily.

ParkerVision, Inc. (NASDAQ:PRKR) put a nice reversal candle today. Any break above the $2 level on volume will cause a short squeeze.

( click to enlarge )

My Watchlist for Tuesday, January 10

( click to enlarge )

SCYNEXIS Inc (NASDAQ:SCYX) had a nice move on the upside today accompanied by strong volume and looks like it wants to go higher. Resistance stays at $3.73, which is a big area that the stock needs to break.

( click to enlarge )

Roka Bioscience Inc (NASDAQ:ROKA) broke through that critical 4.80 level today on heavy volume and looks to be heading higher. The stock hit a high of $5.26, which is resistance for Tuesday’s move. If the stock can break through resistance, we should see a strong follow through move. Next major resistance lies at $7. Watch the stock closely tomorrow.

( click to enlarge )

Novavax, Inc. (NASDAQ:NVAX) gave us a nice move on decent volume, which could be the start of a bigger move. The 1.50 level is pretty much the pivot here. If that breaks we could see 2 quickly.

( click to enlarge )

Keep a close eye on Vical Incorporated (NASDAQ:VICL) tomorrow. The stock looks right on the verge of a breakout. I think in the short term it could see $3 but let's see a test and close above of $2.51 first. Present daily technical indicators are in favor of Bulls.

( click to enlarge )

GenVec Inc (NASDAQ:GNVC) has started a resistance breakout of the 4.50 level. Further rise could be expected and next target would be at 6 area tomorrow. All technical indicators continue to point to higher prices.

( click to enlarge )

XOMA Corporation (NASDAQ:XOMA) looks like is close to attempting a BIG breakout. The stock hit a high of $5.26 but failed to close above this key resistance area. I expect to see a high volume move once the stock breaks through this level as traders are watching this stock closely. Stay tuned.

( click to enlarge )

Exelixis, Inc. (NASDAQ:EXEL) breakout on volume today. Looks ready to test the highs. In my view any pullback should be used to add long positions. Daily technical indicators are turning up.

( click to enlarge )

Cyclacel Pharmaceuticals Inc (NASDAQ:CYCC) showed buying strength all day. The 6.20 area is a critical resistance region that can determine overall bias for the stock in short-term. Keep an eye on these levels.

Stocks to Watch for July 27, 2016

( click to enlarge )

Amicus Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ:FOLD) For what it's worth, the price cleared this key horizontal resistance line on increased volumes. The bounce from the 20-day EMA makes it more authentic. The MACD is rising and the RSI is moving up showing renewed strength. Ready for higher prices. Stop 5.75

( click to enlarge )

Adverum Biotechnologies Inc (NASDAQ:ADVM) Positive divergences on daily indicates that a bounce is likely. For me, it seems to be forming a bottom and the breakout is a matter of time. It's a cash-rich company.

( click to enlarge )

CONSOL Energy Inc. (NYSE:CNX) is looking pretty good breaking out of a consolidation pattern with a significantly higher target in place.

( click to enlarge )

Micron Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:MU) A few days ago I alerted to my twitter folowers at $13, today it closed at $14.67. It just keeps moving higher on nice steady volume. Long setup.

( click to enlarge )

Ambarella Inc (NASDAQ:AMBA) Nice runner from the buy list yesterday. After one week of consolidation in the 56-58 area stock finally broke out and took out its critical level of $58.17. The break of this key resistance line confirms a short-term trend reversal and the beginning of new momentum, which could move the stock above the $60 area.

( click to enlarge )

XOMA Corp (NASDAQ:XOMA) starting to wake up, breakout watch above 58c. The daily technical chart shows that MACD is rising in negative territory, while the RSI is also gaining strength. Next resistance is located at 58c while there is some nice support around 53c. If a proper breakout happens at 58c we can see an initial target of 65c

( click to enlarge )

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) is trading higher after hours, as the company released good earnings. For tomorrow, the levels to watch on upside will be at 101.89 and 102.22

( click to enlarge )

Minerva Neurosciences Inc (NASDAQ:NERV) The major resistance has been broken in this technical chart. Plus, MACD has a bullish crossover. The price can move up to $13-13.2 in the short-term. Let's keep an eye on NERV as i think momentum will pick up.

Stock watchlist for the week of November 02, 2015

( click to enlarge )

XOMA Corp (NASDAQ:XOMA) I used the pullback in the stock price to add more to my portfolio using the rising 20-day exp moving average as stop-loss. Seems like it is forming a cup and handle bottom pattern on daily, which is a bullish formation. Plus, momentum indicators are bullish with the RSI inching away above the middle level and with the MACD rising in positive territory. Any close above $1.43 could lead to a substantial gain in shares. Last week, Wedbush’s Liana Moussatos reaffirmed the price target of $6 with a Outperform rating for the stock. Keep it on watch.

( click to enlarge )

Last week was a little tumultuous for AK Steel Holding Corporation (NYSE:AKS), but it ended very well. The stock fell hard on an analyst downgrade but their earnings report was so positive that the stock rebounded firmly up off the 2.25 danger zone and closed the week back over the 50-day EMA on high volume. Additionally, i saw unusual bullish options activity Friday. The surge in call options activity could signal more gains for the stock in the next few sessions. From a technical standpoint, MACD has a bullish crossover and the bullish crossover in the ADX chart adds to my conviction. Momentum oscillator RSI is also trading above 50 which signals the bullish trend further. This stock should be on your watchlist.

( click to enlarge )

Echo Global Logistics, Inc. (NASDAQ:ECHO) is a potential breakout play. Momentum picking up with MACD climbing and RSI rising. Breakout watch over $23.98

( click to enlarge )

Vringo, Inc. (NASDAQ:VRNG) made a strong upside reversal. The stock broke out and never stopped all day on Friday. There is a good chance the stock will continue to move up. If the stock can break through 39c, we should see it move up to 55c. I won't be surprised to see a similar move like back in July.

( click to enlarge )

Alcoa Inc (NYSE:AA) looks like it wants to make an upside move. Things to focus on daily technical chart is the steady increase in volume last week. It could have marked the end of the slide and beginning of bottoming. Although short-term EMAs are falling, the rising Slow Sto shows the stock is probably now in recovery mode. A close above $9.13 would impart bullishness and would help the stock move to the 9.61-9.75 area.

( click to enlarge )

Finisar Corporation (NASDAQ:FNSR) Consolidating / basing here after clearing the descending trendline over a month ago. I am taking long positions hoping that this stock has reached the bottom. There is something important to point out in this daily technical chart, the volume has been high on up days and low on down days. which could mean that a reversal may be imminent. On watch.

( click to enlarge )

Arena Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:ARNA) looks to have finally hit bottom, as the stock bounced strongly on Friday after its recent weakness. With the strength the stock showed at the close, we should see a continued upside move. I expect to see an increase in volume as traders are always looking for stocks that bounce after a big sell-off, so watch it closely next week.

Biotech Stocks to Watch for October 28, 2015

( click to enlarge )

Just one more push to change this trend. XOMA Corp (NASDAQ:XOMA) was one of the winners on Tuesday, as the stock closed up 24 cents on the day with high volumes. From a technical standpoint, the stock is in a short-term Bull Market with share price above 9, 13, 20 & 50 EMAs. The MACD is rising in the positive territory and the accumulation line is moving higher. There is a Big gap to fill above 1.43, so watch the stock closely tomorrow.

( click to enlarge )

Zafgen Inc (NASDAQ:ZFGN) is one for the bottom pickers. Looking at the technical chart, there are early signs in the indicators, that a larger move may be coming. The MACD indicator is showing signs of reversal and the RSI is deeply oversold, raising the probability of a short-term bounce. If the potential "buy" signal confirms itself, I will be looking for a move to the resistance area at 11.70-12.25 at the very least. The stock could have good upside potential, so watch the stock closely on Wednesday.

( click to enlarge )

Aerie Pharmaceuticals Inc (NASDAQ:AERI) broke through resistance and out of the base formation. Technical indicators are looking Bullish with the RSI rising while the MACD is cutting above its signal line. With the spike in volume and momentum surging in today's trading sesison, there is a high possibility that the stock price can appreciate even more in value during the coming sessions. Keep it on your watch list going forward.

( click to enlarge )

Avalanche Biotechnologies Inc (NASDAQ:AAVL) stock starts showing buy signals again. However, after the recent decline in share price, a good entry point will be only in a break of its 20-day EMA at $8.35 on heavy volume.

( click to enlarge )

Juno Therapeutics Inc (NASDAQ:JUNO) has been under the radar for the last several weeks and appears that the stock still has more fuel in its tank for a move higher. The stock broke a key resistance line today with an up-move of $3.01 to 52.99. Next resistance is now seen at 55.

( click to enlarge )

ZIOPHARM Oncology Inc. (NASDAQ:ZIOP) broke out of an important consolidation area with a long white candlestick. This new rally should at least push the stock to $13.2

Stocks to Watch for October 07, 2015

( click to enlarge )

GoPro Inc (NASDAQ:GPRO) The moment of truth is coming. The positive divergences on daily indicators suggest a move to the upside. At this stage, it is definitely a wait and see, if the $32 resistance level will be easily taken out by the bulls.

( click to enlarge )

Chesapeake Energy Corporation (NYSE:CHK) Watch this one as it approaches this key resistance area. All technical indicators are bullish. The MACD has crossed above its signal and reversed its falling trend. RSI is moving up while ADX is gaining momentum. Could squeeze over 9.08

( click to enlarge )

Juno Therapeutics Inc (NASDAQ:JUNO) Closed above the 100-day EMA and out of the triangle formation accompanied by a volume surge. Looks good for higher prices.

( click to enlarge )

AK Steel Holding Corporation (NYSE:AKS) Watching for breakout confirmation. The stock needs to break and hold 2.88 to confirm. A breakout could take AKS much higher as the chart shows little resistance. Momentum indicators are bullish with RSI inching away above the middle level and with MACD crossing above signal line. I'm really bullish on this stock.

( click to enlarge )

To me Pacific Ethanol Inc (NASDAQ:PEIX) still looks poised to break higher. A move above 7.31 would confirm the breakout, with an initial target of 7.95 and secondary target of 8.28. Stop is at 6.71

( click to enlarge )

XOMA Corp (NASDAQ:XOMA) is pulling back on low volume. Consider buying if it can find support here. Im long.

( click to enlarge )

VIVUS, Inc. (NASDAQ:VVUS) As you can see from the chart above, the short-term outlook is sideways, while the 20-day exponencial moving average still supports. The medium-term outlook is bullish and my model is long. If it breaks above 1.85, then it can easily climb to 2.1 or above.

Stocks to Watch for October 02, 2015

( click to enlarge )

Nice breakout on Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX) with decent volume. Momentum picking up with MACD climbing and RSI rising. Look for a quick run to $107.5 then on to $110

( click to enlarge )

XOMA Corp (NASDAQ:XOMA) was one of the big winners on Thursday with a trading volume of 17M shares. Xoma reported that has entered into an exclusive license agreement with Novartis to develop and commercialize its cancer-fighting antibody program. The company will receive an upfront payment of $37 million and could receive up to $480 million in milestone payments. From a technical standpoint, broke out of a base pattern in heavy volume, finishing with a 43% gain. Other technical indicator such as MACD, is moving up showing positive momentum while RSI also show buy signal. Wall Street analysts are reacting positively to the announcement, increasing their price targets on the stock. The stock could eventually rally up to test the 1.50 resistance zone very soon.

( click to enlarge )

Juno Therapeutics Inc (NASDAQ:JUNO) has a very interesting daily technical chart and could have a bigger move soon. Resistance for this move is $41.95. The chart looks slightly bullish as the stock is trading above 20-day exp moving average and the 13-day EMA crossed above 20-day EMA recently. Worth watching for a breakout.

( click to enlarge )

Rambus Inc. (NASDAQ:RMBS) had a huge rally over the past several days on heavy volume. The stock is displaying a strong upside momentum again. Nearest resistance for the stock is the psychological level of $12. If this level is crossed and the stock is able to sustain above this level, then it might go to $12.67 (50EMA). On the downside, the stock has support at $11.44. The technical daily chart is showing a bullish bias. Watch the stock closely on Friday.

( click to enlarge )

Lakeland Financial Corporation (NASDAQ:LKFN) recorded a new high in the last trading session. The stock topped at 46.3 and closed at 46.2, up 2.33% on volume above the average . The technical daily chart show a continuation of the trend with MACD and RSI in the Bullish areas. Pullbacks to 44.5 are buyable.

( click to enlarge )

Emerge Energy Services LP (NYSE:EMES) Tried to move higher on Thursday but failed to keep the momentum up due to the market weakness. However, i think the selling momentum is losing steam and it is possible that the stock could attempt a new rally today due to the extreme oversodl readings. If it breaks yesterday's high, could squeeze above $8 fast.

( click to enlarge )

Micron Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:MU) is on High alert for Friday. The company reported earnings on thursday and the market loved what they saw. They beat the analysts estimate. Key resistance is located at 16.96 (50EMA). A close above this level will confirm a new bullish trend and the following uptrend will take price up to 19.56-20.24 zone.
