Watchlist for Thursday

LLFH – Tim Sykes bought this today. It is a nice breakout, but it is OTC and the volume was only 622,000. I bet it will go up a little tomorrow and then be choppy. I will not buy.

llfh

RXII – I think I’ve written before that stocks on short watch can make nice buys. This was a nice buy today. Still on short watch.

rxii

MTSN – Nice breakout to 52 week highs.

mtsn

BZH & HOV – A couple homies that are doing nicely in the last couple days.

FMNTQ – If you like bankrupt pinkies, this is a beautiful breakout and it has done well on past breakouts.

fmntq

TSYS – Nice breakout; some resistance from early 2009.

Watchlist for December 16th

JBII & BGEM are pumps and I would love to short, but no shares.

RXII on short watch.

A bunch of oil E&P companies have breakout charts, but largely in response to the XTO buyout by Exxon, so uninteresting and unlikely to continue.

Watchlist for December 15th

A video watchlist! The video unfortunately cuts off before I was finished. It does show many interesting stocks and gives a feel for how I scan.

Potential longs: AEN, ZSTN, TSTC, MGPI

Potential shorts: SNSS, CYCC

Disclosure: Long 300 BHWX. No positions in anything else mentioned in this post. I have a disclosure policy and you can find all my disclaimers there as well; those disclosure & disclaimers are incorporated by reference into this post.

Watchlist for December 14th

SNSS – Top watch, heavily short-biased. Hopefully you are familiar with this stock after its crazy moves the last couple days.

snss

NVLT – Nice breakout chart, too bad it is an OTC BB stock.

nvlt

CYCC – Like a mini-SNSS, it too moved a couple days after its good drug-related news. Short on red, but not a ton of downside.

cycc

NEP – Nice breakout, decent volume, but it is an oil stock. Could still be decent on green.

nep

EVC – Another beautiful breakout, but with plenty of longer-term resistance around $3 to $3.50.

evc

AA – A chart similar to EVC. This of course is Alcoa, and considering it is a big, real company, I won’t be too interested in trading it.

aa

LCC, UAUA, AMR – All these airlines spiked Friday.

Watchlist for Friday the 11th

Just two stocks on watch tonight, but they are two good stocks! Heck, who needs me for these watchlists? Preston already mentioned these an hour ago!

SNSS – Okay, news was two days ago, and yet it waited until today to really run. I’m short biased, but it could have another big day. This is my top watch (and probably is for everyone else, too).

snss

AKNS – Is news of selling their product at Lowes really worth a 50% gain? I will take my cue from the black candle and short with abandon on red! As always, I will not look to short if it gaps down.
