Onvacations

Dearest Readers, First, I would like to thank everyone for your cooperation/support during these last few months of the year, with a high increase of followers on Stocktwits (54000) and Twitter (25300). Then, inform you that in the next 3 weeks (starting just Tuesday) I will be on vacations and will not be back to update the blog until 10th of September. But before I leave you, will introduce again a small overview of the features/signals that Stockal app gives us as a user. For many years most retail investors and traders have envied people who get to use tools like Bloomberg Terminal or Reuters Eikon. What these expensive but holistic platforms offer in terms of usage is probably unparalleled in the industry - putting the most relevant information in the hands of the investor/trader at just the right time. Of course, the cost is in thousands of dollars and therefore cannot be afforded by individual investors. Startups and tech companies have often tried to create something low-cost a...

( click to enlarge ) Jumei International Holding Ltd (NYSE:JMEI) was one of the biggest winners on Friday as the stock closed up 69 cents on the day with huge volumes. I alerted this stock few days ago at $2.35 (August 9th post) and closed Friday at 3.52. Looking at the technical daily chart the near-term outlook is very positive, however and due to the overbought conditions, we could see some profit taking here. Congrats to all of my followers who profited from it. ( click to enlarge ) J C Penney Company Inc (NYSE:JCP) printed a hammer candlestick Friday on high volume characteristic of a bullish reversal. This could signal a short-term reversal of the price decline. Momentum indicators are also turning up from extreme oversold levels. If the stock breaks Friday's high at 3.62, the stock could see a further move into 3.82-4 area. ( click to enlarge ) OpGen Inc (NASDAQ:OPGN) Potential bottom play next week. The stock price has fallen hard over the past several weeks and looks read...

( click to enlarge ) MannKind Corporation (NASDAQ:MNKD) The downtrend line has been broken on the daily technical chart. The price can move up to $1.8/1.88 in the short-term. Indicators are looking bullish and the MACD recently produced a new buy signal. Should breakout hard to upside when it crosses over $1.51. Long setup. ( click to enlarge ) Image Sensing Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:ISNS) is showing extremely oversold conditions on daily chart. Plus, potential double bottom. Looks ready for a short-term bounce IMHO (thin name). ( click to enlarge ) Ophthotech Corp (NASDAQ:OPHT) Nice breakout on solid volume. There is a good chance the stock will continue to move up. ( click to enlarge ) Baozun Inc (NASDAQ:BZUN) Strong bullish candle on decent volume, tomorrow we need to watch for a follow-through day. ( click to enlarge ) Pareteum Corp (NYSEMKT:TEUM) has been pulling back with lower volume after a big surge in price on Monday. Might be worth watching for a new move to the upside. Im in. (...

( click to enlarge ) Medgenics Inc (NASDAQ:GNMX) had a great move on the upside yesterday and closed above the declining 50-day EMA for the first time since March with volume backed confirmation. I went long as its quite possible we should see a short-term move to 1.85. The technical chart shows bullish sign with +DI line on top of -DI line and MACD rising. There could be good upside in GNMX so watch the stock closely on Tuesday. ( click to enlarge ) Vuzix Corporation (NASDAQ:VUZI) is setting up to break out and has one more level to go, which is $6.30. Daily technical indicators are looking bullish. The MACD has formed a bullish rounding bottom and crossed above its signal line, while the 9-Day RSI is about to cross into bullish territory. The stock has plenty of room to run and insiders are starting to buy. ( click to enlarge ) Qualstar Corporation (NASDAQ:QBAK) closed the day just above the break out point after some decent swings. The stock may attempt to go higher from here. The d...

If your investing style is like most other people, you are going to love Stockal.   Most of us begin with scouting for investing ideas - in other words - identifying the kind of stocks we are interested in. It can be done either by thinking of sectors to look at or market caps to consider or some other similar parameter. Then we narrow down on a list of stocks from that criteria and add them to watchlist. We constantly �watch� those stocks for inflection points or events - such as FDA alerts, earnings calls, technical boundaries being met, insider trades etc - and pull the trigger. Then we look for the right trigger to sell as well.  This obviously involves a lot of work. From identifying to shortlisting to watching to investing to tracking and then finally selling. Stockal looks like a pretty awesome tool for all of the above needs. And the best thing is that it covers almost all of the above requirements so smoothly that it fulfills most of your investing needs holis...

( click to enlarge ) Stone Energy Corporation (NYSE:SGY) Nice big price movement on volume today. Next buy point when clears 26.03 on heavy volume. ( click to enlarge ) GoPro Inc (NASDAQ:GPRO) Today was a good confirmation day on volume, continue to hold long and will add more on dips. ( click to enlarge ) Sino-Global Shipping America, Ltd. (NASDAQ:SINO) Like I said yesterday on twitter, this one may be ready for a strong rally. Increased volume up the right side of this very long base. Watch the break of the 3.28 level. ( click to enlarge ) Keep an eye on Jumei International Holding Ltd (NYSE:JMEI), looks like it may be setting up for some movement to the upside. ( click to enlarge ) LendingClub Corp (NYSE:LC) A nice breakout day today on heavy volume. Should test very soon the highs of February.

( click to enlarge ) Cryptocurrencies are ripping higher again ($BTC.X bitcoin hit a new all-time high above $3300) and you should keep an eye on MGTI stock next week. This company is growing its capacity in mining Bitcoin, producing about 100 Bitcoins per month, ranking it as one of the largest U.S. based Bitcoin miners. This play is viewed as one of those potentially quick moving, volatile momentum plays. The stock has the technical setup that most aggressive traders dream of. The daily technical chart shows possibillity of a new rally as the stock is trading above 50 day and 200 day exponential moving average while 50 day exponential moving average is about to cross above 200 day exponential moving average to form a very bullish buy signal, the Golden Cross. In addition, with MACD above 0 and showing signs of turning up again, a major rally is probably coming. If it breaks above the recent high of $1.45 then I could see this stock moving to $2.25 and then $2.84. The stock closed Fri...

I wanted to do a couple of things with this post. Ponder upon why there are anomalies in the market where some products we seem to love so much never convert into winning stocks and how we should be looking at data and analysis in today's changing environment. So, Twitter is such a baffling study. While the platform has always been one of the most used, and often the most impactful, social network with its ability to break news and create trends, the company has never really garnered relevant investor confidence. It has regularly failed to live-up to revenue expectations and the stock has therefore never been investors' darling - always raising existential questions about the company. Is it going be an industry laggard forever? Will it finally get acquired soon? Who knows! The price is probably attractive for an acquisition at least a couple of times every year - but no one seems to be ready to pull the trigger. Plus, there are growth concerns. So I thought why not look at t...

( click to enlarge ) Intrepid Potash, Inc. (NYSE:IPI) Finally made a decision today and broke resistance to the upside. The stock looks good for higher prices but the RSI on the daily chart is now overbought, so i will wait for a small pullback to pivot to enter. ( click to enlarge ) CytRx Corporation (NASDAQ:CYTR) Typical pullback after a great run. Im accumulating for next rally that should break the top of this range. Looking at the accumulation/distribution chart we can see that the stock has been under accumulation for the last several weeks. Bias remains to the upside. The recent price volume and buying action, seems to support this view. ( click to enlarge ) Agios Pharmaceuticals Inc (NASDAQ:AGIO) had a nice break out today and rose over 5%. If the stock can sustain this strong momentum $65 is not out of the question. Keep it on your radar over the coming days. ( click to enlarge ) Black Diamond Inc (NASDAQ:BDE) Keep a close eye on this one, looks ready to break this resistance ...
