A few stocks I am watching:

 

f

Ford is catching my attention. This is a zoom of the all time chart and captures the swing high from 1999 and the low from March 2009. The stock is trading right at the 23.6% fib line at $7.40. The stock is also trading near its 50 day SMA at $7.34. The pre-market reaction is favorable and the stock is trading above $7.40 in the pre-market. If I see volume come into this stock over the next couple of days and this resistance level broken (again, the breakout failed over the summer), I would be interested in buying this stock.

 

pzza

Papa John’s reports earnings tomorrow morning. I’m not going to jump into a stock right before earnings, but this one is a nice looking short. We’ve got a descending triangle price pattern and the stock is trading under the 50, 200 and now 300 day SMAs. Also note the failed pipe bottom on October 21-22.

 

penn

PENN is forming a descending triangle and is hanging on to its 300 day SMA. I’m looking to enter on a breakdown.

 

tndm

TNDM reports on the 4th. This one is another potential descending triangle breakdown. The stock is clinging to horizontal support and its 300 day SMA. I’m looking to enter on a breakdown.

 

I’m watching an overnight range of 1029-1042.

Also, for those that did not catch it over the weekend, I have added a trading blog list. If you want your blog added or know of a blog that should be added, please let me know via the comments section, twitter or by email.

  • I needed some short exposure for my hedge and took down SNDA short. Using $47.5 as a stop. If the 200 and 20 day are taken out, I'll assume a pipe bottom is in place. Note that pipe bottoms on the daily chart have a higher failure rate than on the weekly (according to Bulkowski) which also gives me some comfort taking the trade here.
  • Strong economic reports take us out of the overnight range. Trend day or fakeout?
