The markets had a kind of mixed but positive session. I’m okay with the way it’s acting for now. Lots of stocks we follow and some that we don’t are coming to the forefront. I want to show you quite a few.
Acacia Communications (NASDAQ:ACIA) jumped 2.57, or 4.64%, to 57.92, on 1.8 million shares. This stock had a big downtrend from April/May 2017 until April 2018, it reversed and has been in a beautiful uptrend ever since. Although there has been periods of consolidations, pullbacks, and retesting, it finally broke out in February. It’s accelerating in a rising kind of channel. I think it’s going to extend to 65-70, eventually.
ChemoCentryx (NASDAQ:CCXI) bounced 34 cents, or 2.62%, to 13.31, on 635,415 shares traded on Thursday. I put a swing on it because I think it’s forthtelling of a much bigger move. After a long, one-year consolidation may be getting ready to ramp up. My targets are 15, 17, and eventually mid 20’s.
Americas Car-Mart (NASDAQ:CRMT) had a big pop of 7.38, or 8.7%, to 92.18 with a high of 93.23, on 132,446 shares traded on Thursday, and exploded out of a wedge pattern. This was thinly traded on Thursday, but it looks like it’s headed up toward the 115 range.
Jounce Therapeutics (NASDAQ:JNCE) a swing trade of ours, has been in a beautiful flag over the last two weeks after the breakout of the inverse head-and-shoulders. It popped 31 cents, or 5.3%, to 6.16, on 163,625 shares traded on Thursday. I think Thursday’s reversal was engulfing, so this might be a signal that it’s about to take off. Look for a test of 7, and then 8 3/4-9.
SurveyMonkey (NASDAQ:SVMK), a software company, based, popped, coiled, broke out four days in a row and is ramping. On Thursday, it was up 80 cents, or 4.71%, to 17.80, on 2 million shares. My target of 18 may be hit as early as Friday morning. Then I’m looking for 20, or better, and beyond.
Telaria (NYSE:TLRA), after popping and pulling back, did very well, and now it looks like it’s consolidating. It was up 35 cents, or 5.99%, to 6.19, on 763,651 shares traded and appears to be headed to 71/2. That’s the next target.
