Stocks to Watch for the Last Day of 2011

( click to enlarge )

XenoPort, Inc. (NASDAQ:XNPT) made a new low today but ended in the positive with strong volume. The stock looks oversold and could bounce starting tomorrow. Looking closely at the daily technical chart the MACD is showing a bullish divergence. This signifies that the prevailing trend is weak. If the prices fall to a new low but MACD traces a more shallow low, it would mean that bulls are ready to gain control, and this would identify strength at stock bottoms. In the above chart, you can see that bears are losing some momentum. One positive sign comes from insider transaction as company directors have been buying tons of shares since November. XenoPort, Inc. is a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing a portfolio of internally discovered product candidates, which utilizes the body’s natural nutrient transport mechanisms to improve the therapeutic benefits of existing drugs. It has a market cap. of 127.62M no debt and lot's of cash $103M. Shares shorted have decreased from 2,973,400 to 2,749,900 month-over-month. The stock is a short squeeze candidate, with a short float at 8.1% (equivalent to 8 days of average volume). Of the 9 analysts that have set a target price on XNPT, the lowest price target stands at $7.00. This implies a current upside of 95% from current levels around $3.60. I bought today some shares very close to today's bottom. The stock seems to be undervalued and there is still good room for appreciation.

Furniture Brands International, Inc. (NYSE:FBN) broke the horizontal resistance line today on strong volume and could eventually rally up to test its 50-day SMA. Looking at the technical daily chart the near-term outlook is very positive and a move to the 1.31-1.35 range appears likely. In addition KD also indicate positive momentum.

  ( click to enlarge )

Braskem SA (NYSE:BAK) suffered 3 straight selling days this week with the stock breaking the support at 14. The stock closed below this key support level for the first time in over four weeks, this is something worth watching. The stock is still in very weak market as 50-day moving average is still declining and MACD is still below 0. Stochastics and RSI are both in the oversold area. I'm now being cautious until we close back over $14.98. This is not yet the time to buy the stock.

Few setups for your watchlist

( click to enlarge )

Plains Exploration & Production Company (NYSE:PXP) - The technical daily chart above of PXP, shows very bullish signal as 50-day moving average has just crossed on top over 200-day moving average forming the Golden Cross. With the bullish sign formed and MACD also back above 0 we should see the stock take off from now on, so be patience on PXP because we can see soon a nice rally.

( click to enlarge )

Pacific Ethanol Inc (NASDAQ:PEIX) ended the day with a heavy gain of 27 cents (30%) to $1.15. It pushed higher throughout the day and closed out the session near its highs. This creates a bullish scenario for tomorrow, one in which the stock opens the day a few ticks higher and then continues its rally. The break of resistance $1.10 (20-day SMA ) with high volume is great. The next point of interest is the 200-day SMA at $1.54.

 ( click to enlarge )

Brown Shoe Company, Inc. (NYSE:BWS) will be a stock to keep a close eye on the next few days. The stock is trapped between its major moving averages and imply that a breakout of the trapped zone must occur. At the moment, this signals indecision and no clear direction. Stay tuned !!

( click to enlarge )

FormFactor, Inc. (NASDAQ:FORM) - Technically, short term outlook has turned better after holding well above the $5 level and 10-d SMA (4.92) supports, underpinned by improving technical readings of its daily charts. Additionally, the chart shows a MACD crossover, a bullish sign. Immediate supports are $5 and $4.92 (10-d SMA). Long-term investors may hold with a stop at $4.68.

 ( click to enlarge )

Zalicus, Inc. (NASDAQ:ZLCS) - Wedbush Analysts in a research note issued to investors today reaffirmed its “Outperform” rating on Zalicus Inc with a $5.00 price target. Also, analysts at MLV & Co initiated coverage on shares of Zalicus Inc last week with “buy” rating and a $4.00 price target on the stock. The stock is currently trading at $1.20 which is far from the targets mentioned by the analysts. I'm still holding my long position bought at $1.12 waiting for a huge increase in the share price that could happen at any time. If you look closely at the technical indicator OBV, you can see a strong uptrend which means accumulation is going on.

New Long Setups To Watch

( click to enlarge )

Google Inc. (NASDAQ:GOOG) broke out from a small ascending triangle pattern and closed at the highest since January. From here, I see a high probability for continuation of this momentum throughout this week towards the 650-670 range, which is the next resistance area.

 ( click to enlarge )
Nanosphere, Inc. (NASDAQ:NSPH) had a big day on Tuesday, jumping 26 cents, or 20%, on 1.09 million shares. That was the second biggest volume in about three months. If it gets through the high, which is at about $1.75, this stock could explode into the stratosphere.

( click to enlarge )

Oclaro, Inc. (NASDAQ:OCLR) recovered nicely today and can potentially set-up very well for a swing-trade if the stock breaks through the resistance level at $3.32. Technical indicators are becoming more favorable with MACD and RSI starting to turn up. There could be good upside in this trade, so watch OCLR closely this week.

( click to enlarge )

Tuesday was perfect Alexion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:ALXN) because it set a new all time high on big volume coming out of a consolidation. This is the perfect set-up for buying stocks. I'll be watching the stock tomorrow, looking for a follow through move. As long as the stock stay above $70, the bullish scenario still intact. Technical chart shows very strong bullish sign. First of all the stock is trading above both 50-day and 200-day moving average with both moving average pointing upwards. Then the MACD indicator is rising above "0" also indicating a buy. In addition, KD line still show the stock is on the positive swing.

Stocks on Watch For Tomorrow

Good afternoon, Traders !

I hope you enjoyed your holiday weekend ! Here are some setups to watch tomorrow !

( click to enlarge )

What I like best about Kodiak Oil & Gas Corp. (NYSE:KOG) is the relative performance it has exhibited in the last few weeks with respect to the overall markets. A bullish volume pattern has been formed in the last few weeks. On Friday, the stock made a breakout of its recent high with high volumes. Technical indicators are supporting the bulls. EMA's are moving up and RSI is also moving up and above its 50% level. Stochastic is also moving up and above its 50% level. Buy KOG around $9.23 with stop loss of $8.83 for the short term targets of $9.76 and $10. The stock looks bullish on charts. Keep a close eye on the stock for the follow through move on Tuesday. 


( click to enlarge )

Elan Corporation, plc (NYSE:ELN) continues to hold $12.60 but trade in a narrow range. Shareholders are probably getting frustrated because the stock doesn't move much higher from here, however the short term uptrend line still intact. As long as the stock trades above this support, investors can hold it with stop-loss at $12.55. ELN is a great company and I plan to buy the stock on a close over $13.14

( click to enlarge )

From my point of view, there are solid and consistent buyers here. GNBT's chart suggest that increased buy side activity could push share prices to much higher levels. Generex Biotechnology Corporation (PINK:GNBT) could touch an upside target of $.22 in the medium term. Existing holders could remain invested. The bias is bullish in nearest term. A close above $.194 would impart bullishness and would help the stock move to the $.20-$.22 area. There is a lot of upside potential in GNBT, so keep watching for the breakout move.

 ( click to enlarge )

Dendreon Corporation (NASDAQ:DNDN) - From a technical standpoint, there are some signs of a possible bounce here due to the oversold indicators and some positive divergences, which often leads to short covering. Let’s see whether the stock can gather enough momentum to break through $7.96.

Momentum stocks to watch before Christmas day

 ( click to enlarge )

Greetings everybody !!! JKS strong enough to say...........and the Bulls are back!  JinkoSolar Holding Co., Ltd.  (NYSE:JKS) was an alert from Wednesday at $5.25 via twitter and it closed the day at $5.83 for gains of over 10%.  The stock price also broke above the 20-day SMA accompanied by large volume, a sign that the sky rocketing action has credibility and is not just some result of speculations. The price can head towards the $6.95-$7 zone. If this zone is surpassed, getting to $9 would be a possibility. 

 ( click to enlarge )

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) is trying to break $400 ...... a psychological mark ...... from there it's a rocket to the top. Don't be fooled by the Bears....

( click to enlarge )

Pacific Biosciences of California (NASDAQ:PACB) had a very good bullish rally this week accompanied with large volume. This stock is good to hold for the short term. PACB currently stopped short of breaking the resistance at $2.90 which is the resistance line formed from November. Also watch out for other resistance levels at $3.15 which is the 50 day moving average. Currently, the technical indicators are displaying good signs. Buy if resistance is broken with good volume, possible target price is around $4.17.

( click to enlarge )

TriQuint Semiconductor (NASDAQ:TQNT) - The break of the 50-day SMA with heavy volume should be the next buy point on TQNT. The technical daily chart above shows the momentum indicators have turned up and the RSI is on the rise. Although both 50 day and 200 day moving average are showing weakness, KD line is indicating upward swing. For the short term the stock should still continue to go up. A close above $5.24 would have positive implications and could push the stock to the 6-6.5 range. 

 ( click to enlarge )

Zalicus, Inc. (NASDAQ:ZLCS) chart also looks good. The stock has been in a nice uptrend for the last two weeks and it looks very strong with both 20 day and 50 day moving average going up. The technical daily chart above is showing bullish bias. MACD is indicating that the current short term price trend is very bullish. In addition, the On Balance Volume is increasing, indicating accumulation of shares in the market. I'm still maintaining the buy rating on ZLCS as the technical chart still shows very bullish sign as 20 day moving average is on top over 50 day moving average with MACD above 0.

Watch these Stocks Tomorrow

 ( click to enlarge )

Shares of Zalicus, Inc. (NASDAQ:ZLCS) surged 6.61% to $1.29 per share after MLV & Co initiates coverage on Zalicus with a Buy rating and a $4 target price to reflect the company's clinical development for 2012. From a technical standpoint,  the stock still looks very strong with both 20 day and 50 day moving average going up while MACD is above 0 and %K line is on top of %D line. In addition the OBV suggests strong accumulation is going on. Today’s high was $1.32, which is resistance for the follow through move on Thursday. If the stock does break resistance, expect to see another strong upside move. There looks to be more room in this move, so watch the stock closely over the next few days.

( click to enlarge )

Hercules Offshore, Inc. (NASDAQ:HERO) started the day weak, but rallied to go positive and closed near the highs of the day. This could be the start of a trend reversal for HERO, which is why I'll be watching the stock on Thursday. Resistance is $4.44, which was Wednesday’s high of the day. If the stock breaks through, there is a good chance you will see a strong upside move, so watch the stock very closely tomorrow. In addition, the Chaikin Money Flow Index is showing a rising move, indicating a rising money flow into the stock. Keep HERO on your radar for Thursday’s trading session.

( click to enlarge )

Sounds like JinkoSolar Holding Co., Ltd. (NYSE:JKS) is gaining some momentum again. The stock has made a strong bounce off of the lows that were posted last week with good volume. The technical daily chart shows possible new rally as %K line is back above %D line, while the RSI is also gaining strength. If a proper breakout happens at $5.50 we can see a target of $6.97.

( click to enlarge )

Pfizer Inc. (NYSE:PFE) has been in an upwards trend the past few weeks and looks ready to continue this move. Today, the stock ended up 22 cents, which was respectable in this weak market. PFE is worth watching on Thursday, especially if the market shows strength. Resistance is $21.73, which reflects Wednesday’s high of the day.

3 Long setups to watch on Wednesday

 ( click to enlarge )

The daily technical chart shows an up trend for Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) and the price has been well supported by the 200-day SMA over the past 3 months. The daily MACD lines, MACD-histogram, 10-day SMA and stochastics are all rising. In addition, the stock broke its 50-day moving average and could break 396.41 next on its way to a target of 404 to 409 if the market continues with its recovery. These factors support a bullish move.

( click to enlarge )

Air Lease Corp (NYSE:AL)  looks like is close to attempting a breakout.  This strength is confirmed by price movement as well as two momentum indicators. MACD and RSI show buy signal as MACD is above signal line and RSI above its 50% level. The stock has held its 50-day MA as support and is displaying a screaming buy divergence on the upside. AL is also slowly under accumulation based on the OBV indicator. I think the market is waiting for fresh news to define the trend, however if the stock breaks above $23.75, then that is a bullish sign as higher prices. 

 ( click to enlarge )

Hercules Offshore, Inc.(NASDAQ:HERO) caught my attention today. The signal to buy was given today when the previous day high at $4.23 was taken out. This breakout suggests a possible move to $4.50. Technical indicators such as KD also show buy signal as %K line has just crossed on top over %D line.  Although the stock didn't perform well this month, we start to see now some signals of rebound as the technical chart shows positive momentum is back. Stay tuned !!

Stocks Watchlist For Tuesday, Dec 20

   ( click to enlarge )

Elan Corporation, plc (NYSE:ELN) is setting up for a very interesting upside move. The stock hit a high of $12.60 today, but was not able to above this level. I expect to see a high volume move once the stock breaks through resistance, as traders are watching this stock closely.   From a technical standpoint, this stock is currently in an uptrend and is finding support from its 50-day MA at 11.10 . The OBV is showing a rising move, indicating a rising money flow into the stock. Keep the stock on your screen because once ELN breaks through resistance, the stock should take off and move quickly.

Sirius XM Radio Inc. (NASDAQ:SIRI) - From a short-term perspective, the stock remains trapped between support at its 50-day moving average and resistance at its 200-day moving average. A close above $1.88 would be bullish for the long term.

If you paid attention to Saturday's alert and got into GNBT at the opening bell, congratulations !!! My tip was great !!! Now that you are aware of Generex Biotechnology Corporation (NASDAQ:GNBT), I suggest that you keep it on your radar. The stock broke out today of its 200-day MA on heavy volume. If this chart does what is supposed to do, GNBT will be going higher in the days to come. Today's high of $.194 is resistance for the continuation move. At this stage, the stock is too extended for additional positions, and is in the overbought zone. I really like the chart but at this level I would wait for a pull back before putting any cash to work. Keep the stock on your radar.

( click to enlarge )

I continue to watch Zalicus, Inc. (NASDAQ:ZLCS) because the volume is still large so it could potentially break out again at any moment. Other good news, the MACD is perking up and the OBV is moving up. The stock is being accumulated.

( click to enlarge )

Gentiva Health Services, Inc. (NASDAQ:GTIV) appears to be holding the 20-day MA nicely. A break above $6.84 would be bullish.

During the day I tweet many times to my readers. I encourage everybody to subscribe AC Investor Blog  twitter and newsletter, so you can receive my trade ideas and stock news in real time.

Stocks on watch for next week

( click to enlarge )

Novatel Wireless, Inc. (NASDAQ:NVTL) was one of the winners on Friday. The stock closed just below the high of the day which tells us there were buyers in the stock all day. This is a strong sign moving forward. The major technical indicators are looking better now for the stock. Looking at the technical chart the stock has just entered into a short-term bull market as the stock is on top of 13-day and 20-day moving averages. Other technical indicator such as MACD, is showing positive momentum while KD line also show buy signal as %K line is on top of %D line. Technically speaking the stock is now painting a short-term Bullish picture. Next resistance lies only at $3.33.

( click to enlarge )

Sourcefire, Inc. (NASDAQ:FIRE) broke out on Friday and made a new 52-week high of $35.90. I'm keeping FIRE on the list for the continuation move. The stock had big buyers in it all day and looks ready to make another move on Monday. The technical chart shows a continuation of the trend with MACD and RSI in the Bullish areas. Watch the stock closely next week and once it breaks $35.90, get ready to jump in and buy the stock.
( click to enlarge )

Last week, Generex Biotechnology Corporation (NASDAQ:GNBT) had a huge rally of about 70% on heavy volume. The stock is displaying a strong upside momentum again. Nearest resistance for the stock is at $.16 ( 200-day MA ). If this level is crossed and the stock is able to sustain above this level, then it might go to $.22. On the downside, the stock has support at $.12. The stock is currently in a new uptrend. The technical daily chart is showing a strong bullish bias. On Balance Volume is increasing, indicating accumulation of shares in the market and KD line is indicating upward swing. Watch GNBT closely on Monday. I feel this stock will easily make a strong move to the upside on any positive news. 

( click to enlarge )

Oclaro, Inc. (NASDAQ:OCLR)  had a slightly bullish day on Friday again but the price is struggling around the 20-day MA line resistance. Consistent move above $2.90 ( the trend line resistance ) could be a beginning of a new technical bullish reversal at least testing 3.3/3.40 area. Immediate support is at 2.78 followed by 2.68.

( click to enlarge )

The outlook for Elan Corporation, plc (NYSE:ELN) is positive and a move to 12.07-12.20 appears likely. The positive outlook would be in force as long as the stock remains above the 50-day moving average. Remain invested with a stop-loss at $11.06. The technical daily chart show a continuation of the trend with MACD and RSI trending upwards.
 
 ( click to enlarge )

I've mentioned Zalicus, Inc. (NASDAQ:ZLCS) for the bulls out there. I stand by this position. It looks like it is starting to turn back up and indicators are giving the first bullish signs. I am looking to see this stock re-test its October highs shortly. The OBV is increasing and the stock price has regained its position above the 50-day MA. The nearest trend is in favour of Bulls and ZLCS has room to go higher. If the stock can break through $1.25, we should see strong volume drive the stock higher. You need to watch the stock closely because it could break resistance soon.

Stocks Watchlist For Friday, Dec 16

 ( click to enlarge ) 

ABAT ran for over 100% when I first alerted on Monday via twitter and made my members substantial gains !!! Once again and based on yesterday's post, the stock performed according to my expectations today rewarding traders with a swift and easy 30% gain ! But from what I'm seeing right now... As the chart noted earlier, one of the key resistances was 87 cents ( 50-day MA ), and traders accumulated stock fast enough to bull rush past that point and reach 90 cents. Even after its 100% bounce, ABAT 's chart does not seem to indicate the stock being overbought. Plus, the accumulation remains extremely strong, which shows how hungry traders seem to be for ABAT shares. Volume today topped a stunning 1.5 million shares very strong and encouraging turnover, to say the least ! Looking at the technical daily chart above, it seems the stock broke the strong resistance area at $.87 and has moved decisively to the upside. That is a powerful sign that high prices are likely to continue. Long positions may be considered on price weakness, with a stop-loss at $.64 The next resistance it could encounter is at $1.10. Once that level is breached, the next resistance could be its 200-day MA at $1.49. Remember traders to always use stop-loss orders to secure profits and minimize your losses.

( click to enlarge ) 

Shares of Career Education Corp.  (NASDAQ:CECO) are starting to heat up again and are worth watching. Next resistance is now located at $7.17 ( 20-day MA ) and if the stock breaks above this level, you could see a nice pop.

 ( click to enlarge )

Spectrum Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:SPPI) enjoys a strong support at the $13.66 area. Only a close below this zone would have negative implications. The medium-term trend is bullish and would remain so, as long as the stock holds above this area.

  ( click to enlarge ) 

Heckmann Corporation (NYSE:HEK) continued to show strength with another gain on strong volume. Long entry is at $6.65.

Stocks Watchlist For Thursday, Dec 15

( click to enlarge)

I mentioned Zalicus, Inc. (NASDAQ:ZLCS) before as a stock I was watching for an entry on. Stock has been in a very clear downtrend until some recent consolidation in the $1.05 area. There has been a decent increase in volume signaling of accumulation. The stock showed more signs of strength on today's session, as the stock closed up 10 cents on the day.

A quick look at the technical chart :

1) ZLCS is currently moving up with heavy volume
2) 20 day moving average crossed the 50 day moving average to the upside.
3) MACD lines are going up
4) RSI still above the neutral 50 level at 57, buyers strength still persists.
5) Money Flow-Index still climbing.
6) The +DI crossed up through the -DI this month - Bullish.
7) %K line has crossed on top over %D line
8) OBV still climbing.

The strong accumulation over the past weeks has shown funds moving into the company and moved share prices upward. Keep watching ZLCS this week since anticipated increased volume tomorrow that could push shares higher. Given how high ZLCS has gone in the past, this could be a great buying opportunity if it sees a strong rally ! Don't miss this opportunity research the stock now !

 ( click to enlarge )

Novatel Wireless, Inc. (NASDAQ:NVTL) made a nice reversal today and finished stronger. The technical chart above suggests that stock might find now resistance at $3.04. Only a close above this level would suggest further upside.

( click to enlarge )

Advanced Battery Technologies, Inc. (PINK:ABAT) made a strong upside reversal this week. On Monday, I  alerted my twitter followers for a possible strong rebound. The technical chart above suggests that stock might find now resistance at $.87. Only a close above this level would suggest further upside. I think the stock is due for recovery as %K line has crossed on top over %D line. The stock needs to close above $.912 in order to alleviate the negative near term view. Remain invested with a stop loss at $.48.

( click to enlarge )

Eli Lilly & Co. (NYSE:LLY) broke out to a new all-time high today, accompained by a strong volume suggesting higher levels. The technical chart still showing a bullish bias. KD line shows positive signs as %K line is rising on top over %D line and RSI continue moving up. I suspect the stock may continue to appreciate over the coming days.
