TradingMarkets Chart of the Day
For today’s Chart of the Day, let’s take a look at the
Pullbacks From Highs list published each day on the
Indicators
page. Most successful momentum-based traders and money managers like to
buy strong stocks after they pull back. TradingMarkets.com uses a proprietary
mathematical model to identify up to 30 (in weak or choppy markets there will be
fewer) of the strongest stocks that have pulled back from recent highs. These
stocks should be considered potential candidates to resume their longer-term
uptrends.
Greif Inc.Â

been trading above its 200-day simple moving average since late May 2006,
confirming its uptrend. On December 28, 2006 GEF
made new all-time highs at $122.77 and proceeded to pull back in the last few sessions. Watch for
GEF to make another move back upwards after this current stage of selling.
Remember: TradingMarkets teaches you to trade pullbacks; use
your knowledge of the trend to get a better buy-in price before the stock
resumes direction.
