is
moving along with the rest of the group. On the daily charts, TXCC has set a new
high on moderate volume. Conservative traders will look for a new high followed
by a continuation move  on Monday.


Daytraders might
also want to glance at the five-minute charts, where we see an intraday
consolidation pattern forming. Look for a breakout from this pattern to offer a
trading opportunity. Set you alerts near the top and bottom of consolidation.

in the once again popular chip group is also rallying to a new 52-week high (not
all-time). In this case, it would be good to look at the group along with the
individual stock. Look for CRUS to close at a new high and then head higher
again on Monday. We may see a pullback next week following this strong rally
that we have seen.

 

Until Monday,
