RE: US Stocks - Watchlist and Discussion (Premium)

A few for the watchlist

MGPI - had a slow start in Stage 2 back in early 2013, but has finally come to life in the last few months and got some increased volume as it's doubled in price from the early Stage 2 breakout range. What you can't see on the weekly chart, is the 2010 highs, which it's currently challenging. It's extended short term, but looks to be improving in the longer term charts, and so one to watch on it's next consolidation.

       


EVEP - In early Stage 2, attempting to clear resistance. Weak volume though, which needs to improve to meet the 2x weekly requirement that we look for on a breakout week.

       


HD - Gap breakout from year long consolidation to make an attempted Stage 2 continuation.

I last highlighted it on the 1st August as it made continuation breakout on very strong relative volume. That volume continued to build this week as it powered higher and was almost 10x the average weekly volume by the close this week and made a new five year high.

So if you scale out to monthly chart you can see it's testing the top of a four year base formation, where it's stabilized following the collapse in 2008, and so now looks like it could be ready to breakout into a monthly Stage 2A phase, and is attempting to clear resistance from the 2010 highs. The volume on the monthly chart is very strong at 2.82x the monthly average volume after only six trading days, and so it looks to have the ingredients that we look for.

Below is the monthly, weekly and daily charts.


Went long on PLNR last night. It's surpassed it's yearly high and no nearby resistance in sight. Volume is still very strong, formed a few days flag (not sure how strong that is). Well above 30 week MA. But RSI is really high. Any thoughts on the upcoming weeks? Hopefully I can get out around 4.60$/4.70$

Imo, don't necessarily look to limit your gains to $4.60-$4.70 range... The stock could pullback in the short-term, but then potentially go even higher. Depending on your style, study the investor or trader method exit strategies to determine the right exit point so that you don't cut your profits short. Also, make sure that you have a proper stop-loss set in case things unexpectedly go severely wrong.

FOLD - is showing up in my scans again for the fourth time since I originally highlighted it when it was in Stage 1a t 2.78 in early June. The resistance zone from 2012 has held it up for the last six weeks, but today it's once again making a fresh Stage 2 continuation move on heavy volume. And if you look at the monthly chart you can really see the volume build over the last five months, and potential areas of resistance that could slow it's advance.

MNDL - attempting a Stage 2A breakout on the weekly chart, and the monthly is also in a monthly Stage 1B phase, and has potential to make a longer term monthly Stage 2A breakout to new multi year highs.

HPJ - attempting an initial continuation move on heavy volume, after consolidating above the 30 week MA for many months.

ACCO - Attempting Stage2A breakout with the weekly volume approaching 2x the 52 week average volume, and relative performance versus the S&P 500 is moving above a flattening zero line.

The monthly is also attempting to cross the 30 month MA and move into a monthly Stage 1A, so is showing the right attributes.

ADK was highlighted on the 25th July as it started it's Stage 2A breakout attempt. Since then it's worked it’s way to a Stage 2A breakout a few weeks back after struggling for a few weeks to clear the level, but has had an excellent volume build through the early advance. And although strongly above the zero line, the RS zero line is only just starting to flatten, but the price is just clearing the some near term resistance. So with the good volume build and clearing sky's, this one could have some potential in the medium term.
