Here’s a technique for aggressive traders
In today’s Chart of the Day, we’re going to look at the
TradingMarkets
Low-Priced Stocks Ready To Surge list.
These are the stocks under $10/share that today made new 10-day lows that are
still in an uptrend as they are trading above their 200-day
moving average.
They are sorted in rank according to how over-extended they are vs. their 10-day
moving average. For example, the top ranked stock is trading the furthest
distance from its 10-day moving average on a percentage basis. Historically,
these stocks on average have had larger than normal short-term upside reversals.
Please note: All stocks carry risk and low-priced stocks usually come with even
more risk. Always use caution.
The list for 07/21/06 (Friday’s close) has only one stock that meets the above
criteria. It also has a high PowerRating (7-10) suggesting it is likely to
outperform the S&P 500 this week.
