Despite The Weak Market Action, Several Stocks Seem Resilient
Here is a tentative list of some stocks that seem to be bucking today's negative market action: CVGW, ARTW, BKR, SILC, ALVR, JNPR, PRKR, MPWR, NUAN, MFE

BKR


Very positive breakout action with robust volume to back it up. This is exactly what I like to see in a strong stock.

SILC

Stocks to Watch and Market Comments Submitted by Nick at Ambitions as a Stock Trader

Several Things....
This week is a bit busy for me so do not be surprised if my posting is not as frequent as other weeks. There are several things to keep an eye on. If we close at the HOD today, the DJIA will be in good shape to head higher as we have faced some resistance at the 13,200 level. If it can't close above this level, we may head down a bit to retest the area between 12,800-13,000. The NADSAQ needs to close above 2,550 in order to continue its short-term uptrend. If it faces resistance at that level, it may retest the 2,500 level. Likewise, the S&P also needs to close at levels near the HOD (which is slightly above its 200 day MA). Otherwise, it may run into some trouble and take another nasty dip. The Russell 2000 Index needs some more work in order to reclaim its 200 day MA. If it faces resistance and can't climb above the 200 day MA, it may be a good idea to initiate a short-term short position
in it.

As far as stocks are concerned, there are many stocks that have found support and pivot points off of their 200 day MA.

Some interesting stocks that are heating up the charts...


SVT

PLX- Avoid this stock if you are afraid of heights. This is undoubtedly a momentum play and a potential future high, tight flag candidate.

SHEN

VSEC (comeback?)

ACP

CCOI

VMW- Expect the stock to pullback a bit as it has had a quick run-up

SLI

ARTW

CVGW

Stocks to Watch Submitted by Nick at Ambitions as a Stock Trader

Stocks to Keep an Eye On...
Here are several stocks that you should simply keep an eye on. Buy them up if you would like at your own risk. Remember to keep any new buys small. Technically, one should be patient and not risk cash on either the long or short side at the moment, but sometimes several bullish charts emerge when you least expect them...

Keep an eye on:

NUAN
VMW (recent IPO)
VII (already recommended)
MPWR ( already recommended)
CVGW (good add on point)
CCOI
WLDN
FOSL
SURW
KOP
PLX (very volatile...risky play)
ETC (bottoming out)
PEGA
ARTW (bouncing off of the 50 day MA)

Submitted by My Ambitions as a Trader and Investor

In Play: ARTW, PENX, PTG, GBX

Keep an eye on ARTW, PENX, PTG and GBX as they are showing strength today...

The most speculative out of the bunch is PTG. PTG reminds me of KTEC and ARTW.

Trading Thoughts for July 17th by Nick at Ambitions as a Stock Trader

Submitted by My Ambitions as a Trader and Investor
Hey guys,

I've been a little busy so I haven't had a chance to comment on today's market and stock action. For one, I am happy with ARTW's performance. It is important to note that opportunities such as these are abundant during earnings season. To maximize your profit potential, look for stocks that have a low float (less than 10 mil, less than 6 even better), and with strong earnings results (earnings increases of 50% are good, but look for those that post 100% or better). For instance, ARTW posted a 250% earnings increase. This is a substantial amount and it can help fuel the momentum that will send this stock higher.

Some other stocks that did well today included: RZ, CEDC, VSR

Earning Pick for Tomorrow: QEPC, a low float stock mentioned in my earnings watch for this week is already locked and loaded for a stunning morning rush. The stock is already up big after hours which will make entry difficult for anyone who hasn't already bought in.

Earnings Watch Submitted by Nick at Ambitions as a Stock Trader

Submitted by My Ambitions as a Trader and Investor

Here are several stocks that one should keep an eye on for this week. They are reporting earnings and may report an earnings surprise. If you are feeling lucky, jump in early. If you are feeling sensible, then wait until earnings are announced and then jump in and ride the stock up. I was able to jump into PENX and RBN after earnings were announced and even so, I was still able to make a nice return.

The stocks: BNSO, FORR, ARTW, CPSS, CSX, CCK, FELE, MTOX, CHIP, CAVM, DST, NVEC, PKG, QEPC, SMIT, SLGN, TRNS, VMI, ALDN, AME, KNX, AVCI, BMI, BZC?, FNSR, IIIN, ISIG, INSW, LSTR, LCCI, MATW, NETC, UTMD, NAFC, PTEC, ACO, SCHL, ALY, ACU, DSWL, GAP, IUSA, KCI, LINE, SMXC, RIMG, ORB, OMCL, NICH

Some of these are low market cap and low float stocks. These tend to be really volatile, so watch your entry. Also note that I have not listed all the stocks that are reporting. I simply listed the stocks that I am planning on keeping an eye on. I am not very intrested in any large caps, blue chip or household name stocks that may be reporting. I like to go for the ones that very few people talk about or even know about. That's just my style. For a more comprehensive list of earnings releasing stocks (including blue chips and household names), check out Bloomberg, Market Watch or Yahoo Finance...
