Stocks I’m watching

 

STMC – Semtech – maybe going higher?

image

looks like almost a head and shoulders pattern here on the daily

I bought this stock at $27 and may buy some more before long.

Currently it is at $28.25 or so I may wait for it to pull back some before jumping on some more.

MACD is heading positive again (black); Stockastics are middling (not much help but they are crossing again so maybe they will help out the decision point – if they cross here it might be a good time to buy.

 

Buying the /ES (S&P 500 e-mini) – not sure why it’s going up but it is and I’m going to ride it to some profits…

The ‘least’ bad is Healthcare.  Surprisingly it looks like Tech is one of the worst performing of the bunch.  The further out one looks the worse it gets – it is down there with Financials…

Not sure which of these paints the most accurate picture – for the long-term the 1 year performance or the year-to-date performance seem to make sense but they give different answers to the question.

Maybe should have waited for the 50SMA but it should still catch hold eventually – will add to LONG list

TIBX - Tibco Software

I have liked Tibco for a long time – maybe it’s because I am a systems integrator and know the value of this software ilk…

image

EZPW – Ezcorp

REVERSAL PATTERN – but which way? Judging from the volume I would guess down but will research more… Head and Shoulders pattern?  3 bases pattern?
