Here are the Rest of the Top 10:
American Eagle Outfitters (NYSE:AEO)
American Eagle Outfitters, AEO, had a long pullback through 2013 and the first half of 2014. That reversed and it has been trending higher, nearly revealing 18 in April. The shallow pullback touched the 100 day SMA and moved back up to the prior high. Some short consolidation and a third touch and peek above resistance makes it interesting.
Alexion Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ:ALXN)
Alexion Pharmaceuticals, ALXN, pulled back from a high in December over 200. It started as a broad consolidation but then lost support and dropped to a new low in May. Since then it has bounced and is now testing resistance of that broad consolidation range again. The RSI is bullish and rising while the MACD avoided a cross down and is rising as well.
Atmel Corporation (NASDAQ:ATML)
Atmel, ATML, broke above resistance June (was a winning Top 10 Pick then) and rose to 10.50. Since then it has pulled back, retracing most of the break out before a reversal Friday. The RSI has also turned up and the MACD is falling, but may be starting to flatten.
Federated Investors Inc (NYSE:FII)
Federated Investments, FII, has had a long trend higher. It is one of those stocks where you have been looking for an entry for a while to follow this trend but the stock has not given one since March. That looks to have change last week with the reversal higher off of the 200 day SMA. The RSI is turning up as well with the MACD left to reverse.
Lendingtree Inc (NASDAQ:TREE)
Lending Tree, TREE, moved out of a consolidating range in June and started higher. The price is now consolidating again at 80 as the RSI moves sideways in the bullish zone and the MACD works lower. The very large volume Wednesday and Thursday suggest a move may be coming.
After reviewing over 1,000 charts, I have found some good setups for the week. These were selected and should be viewed in the context of the broad Market Macro picture reviewed Friday which, heading into July Options Expiration week sees the equity markets still looking vulnerable short term in their longer term uptrends.
Elsewhere look for gold continue to test the downside while crude oil also turns lower. The US Dollar Index seems ready to move higher in its consolidation while US Treasuries are biased lower in their consolidation. The Shanghai Composite and Emerging Markets are both bouncing and need to be watched carefully to see if the moves are real.
Volatility looks to remain in the elevated range of this low level, continuing to lessen the tail wind for the equity index ETF’s ARCA:SPY, ARCA:IWM and NASDAQ:QQQ. Their charts show the IWM looking the best short term as they all try to hold and reverse higher, while the QQQ and IWM look good longer term as the SPY is weakest. Use this information as you prepare for the coming week and trad’em well.
