I thought we could try a thread listing some stocks to watch for the upcoming week, each week. I am trying to get back into watching some stocks and some that Tin has found ended up being some nice plays.

I'll be upfront - I don't have much to contribute to this thread right now. I know... I was hoping to provide some feedback on stocks being mentioned until I figure out what type of stock trading/screener software to use. I'm dragging my feet on this as I'm not sure what I want or need.

So, if you have any stocks/etf's that you are watching this week, feel free to list here and elaborate if you want. If not, just tickers will work too.

Good trading swing traders!

I'm toying with using prophet.net as they have some scanners that may work for me... we'll see.

Off their list here - http://www.prophet.net/explore/charttoppers.jsp - called 'Chart Toppers' here's a few that grabbed my attention:

NYSE:
PMI - High Volume Hammer (a total of 3, first one failed)
CFC - Already had a high volume hammer, just noting here
RDN - High Volume Hammer
IMB - Already had a high volume hammer, just noting here

NASDAQ:
TGIC - Had high volume hammer, Nice bullish engulfing/spinning top, still playable

That's about it for tonight. I'm not sure what prophet defines as 'chart toppers' but the common theme I found was volume. They have a number of other scanners and such, so this may work best for me. For now, I'm thinking high volume, % gainers/losers could be useful with the candles.

I should note something on those plays after I got some sleep - I didn't see many (if any) where there was some support level around. I would prefer to see any level tested before and with the free stuff available at prophet, I didn't see any. Most of these looked like these were new lows, at least recently. The potential concern there, as you can see in a couple of these is that you may need to take multiple hammers or whatever before one works. You could also be caught buying into a strong downtrend.

Point is that tread carefully on just buying high volume hammers w/o any other support around. And as always, make sure to do your OWN homework and due diligence before placing any real money on the line.

Hmmm...on EEM I have some discrepancy with volume on other charts. Seems as though this prophet chart is showing less volume on the break, where on other charts I see stronger volume on the break. So...EEM is a good go for me.

Tin,
Check out that hammer on PBW towards the left side of your chart. That's what I am talking about in this thread.

WOW.

Yup, and thru VSA we'd say an ULTRA wide spread on ULTRA high volume breaking into new ground is a good sign that institutional flow is starting to take part.
