It was a very difficult day on Wall Street on Tuesday. The indices gapped lower and channeled down all day. Only at the end did they do a short cover rally. It was a snapback kind of move, but the stocks that we follow still did well. We’ve got a lot of stocks that are trending and able to day trade. Let’s take a look at a few of them here.
- Axsome Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ:AXSM), which now has a drug approval, is a swing from back in Jan, trading at 7.00, and change, and here it is, reaching 20.00 for the first time ever on Tuesday, up 39 cents, or 2.04%, to 19.54, on 1.5 million shares. You can see that this stock has been flagging for a week. I think it’s on its way up to 24, which is the target.
- Catasys, Inc. (NASDAQ:CATS), a healthcare industry leader, and a swing from the 12 3/4 range, is now trading in the 17 range. On Tuesday, it was looking pretty good and breaking out of the flag-type pattern, jumping 1.18, or 7.47%, to 16.98, with an increase in volume and OBV . I’m looking for a quick test of 18-18 3/4, and then 24-25 potentially.
- Bitcoin Investment Trust (OTC:GBTC) had a massive drop that went from the 35.48 range in Dec 2017 to the 3.50-.75 range in Feb 2019. It based out, broke out with a breakaway gap, pulled back a couple times, consolidated, and now it’s breaking out again, popping 29 cents, or 3.86%, to 7.81, on 5.5 million shares on Tuesday. My targets are 8 3/4 and 10.
- Immersion Corporation (NASDAQ:IMMR), a developer and licensor of touch feedback technology, also appears to be breaking out of a base. Tuesday was a good day for this stock, gaining nearly a dollar, up 97 cents, or 10.23%, to 10.45, on 857,885 shares traded. That doesn’t seem like a lot of volume, but it has more than doubled the average volume. I’m looking for a move to test the gap around 12, and then fill that gap at some point at 13 1/2 as the secondary target.
- Kirkland Lake Gold Ltd. (TO:KL), one of our favorites, along with many other gold stocks that came to the forefront on Tuesday, soared 1.90, or 6.15%, to 32.80, on 2.5 million shares. That’s the best volume I’ve seen on KL on an up-day, going back to Feb. It might mean that it’s about to break out and test the highs around 36, and an immediate target at 33-34.
- Zynex, Inc. (NASDAQ:ZYXI), a medical technology company and one of our new swings, is really looking good. It had a one-day pullback on Monday, gapped to prior highs, and then popped 32 cents, or 4.72%, to 7.10, on 196,753, nearly 3 times the average volume. I think we’re going to 8 1/2-9 on this stock. That’s our target.
