Digital Turbine, Inc. (NASDAQ:APPS) broke out of a bull coil on Monday that it was sitting in. It opened at the low for the day at 2.35, ran up to a high at 2.56, pulled back and closed up on 9 cents, or 3.8%, to 2.44, on over 2 million shares traded. That’s the best volume in about three weeks. It backed off resistance at the 2.50-.60 zone. Looking back, you can see how this stock accelerates. I have a feeling, it’s going to run up to the 3-3.25 range short term, and then 4-4.25.

Esperion Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ:ESPR) had a big, bullish, engulfing day off the trendline on Monday, and got up to resistance, ran up to 81.29 near the end of the day, pulled back slightly, and still closed up 4.79, or 6.36%, to 80.05, on 1.6 million shares traded. If it gets through 82-82 1/2, we’re looking at 90, and then 100.

Health Insurance Innovations, Inc. (NASDAQ:HIIQ), after popping, breaking through resistance, and backing off slowly in a falling wedge, has moved up nicely, gaining 1.55, or 4.9%, to 33.15, on 670,131 shares traded on Monday. The volume is increasing. I’m looking for a test of the 36-38 zone short term.

Viking Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ:VKTX) recovered nicely on Monday, popping 25 cents, or 4.3%, to 6.05, on 1.4 million shares traded, reaching a high of 6.20. The volume is extremely heavy. If it can get through the declining topsline, it may get a retest of the high around the 7.15 area. If it does that, you’re looking at 9 and 10 as the next targets.
