Stocks Ready to Surge:
These are the stocks that today made new 10-day lows that are still in an
uptrend as they are trading above their 200-day moving average. They are sorted
in rank according to how over-extended they are vs. their 10-day moving average.
For example, the top ranked stock is trading the furthest distance from its
10-day moving average on a percentage basis. Historically, these stocks on
average have had larger than normal short-term upside reversals.
Black & Decker ( BDK | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating)
Pullbacks from Highs:
Most successful momentum-based traders and money managers like to buy strong
stocks after they pull back. TradingMarkets.com uses a proprietary mathematical
model to identify up to 30 (in weak or choppy markets there will be fewer) of
the strongest stocks that have pulled back from recent highs. These stocks
should be considered potential candidates to resume their longer-term uptrends.
Office Depot ( ODP | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating)
Long Windows Candidates:
These are stocks which are in a strong uptrend, as determined by a proprietary
trend filter and whose current bar has its high below the 4-day moving average.
Historically, these stock on average have had a larger than normal short-term
upside reversals. In order for us to be a buyer of a "Trading Window," we must
have a 10-period ADX reading of 30 or higher and a +DI reading above the -DI
reading. Or we must have a 14-period +DI of 30 or higher (with no ADX reading
required). "Single Windows" are the most common type of Windows. They are simply
a single bar which has its high of the day below the 4-period moving average.
You will enter if the stock trades above yesterday's high.

Trading Where the Action Is:
This list contains the most volatile stocks over the past 50 trading days. These
stocks are only for the most aggressive traders who are willing to assume a high
degree of risk in order to capture larger gains.
International Asset Holding Corp ( IAAC | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating)
Explosion List:
An inherent feature of all markets is that periods of lower-than-normal
volatility are usually followed by periods of higher volatility. These stocks
are trading at one-third or less of their normal volatility and therefore have a
high likelihood of exploding within the next few trading days.
