It was another sloppy day on Wall Street and an ugly way to start the week.
EXACT Sciences Corporation (NASDAQ:EXAS) had a big day on Monday. I really like the way it consolidated. It’s been holding the line of support at 17.51 for a couple months. It popped 1.40, or 7.6%, to 19.73, on 3 million shares traded, and has been acting well, but watch resistance at about the 19.90 area. Look for it to get to 22 1/2-3/4 at the double top. It has 10 days to cover .
NOVAN, INC. (NOVN) had a very good day on Monday, up 1.56, or 8%, to 20.53, on 146,233 shares traded. The falling wedge has been broken, it formed a mini-base over the last two weeks, popped to resistance, and pulled back. Keep an eye on this one, because if it gets through 21, it will get to 22 pretty quickly.
Stocks on the Short Side….
Advance Auto Parts Inc (NYSE:AAP) broke a wedge and got smacked on Monday, down 3.37 cents, or 2.3%, to 143.27, on 800,000 shares traded. You can see that there was a possibility it had some support, but I’m actually looking lower at the 134-36 zone initially. If you look back a little further, you can see that the declining bottom line is all the way down at 105-110. Keep an eye on that one.
G-III Apparel Group Ltd (NASDAQ:GIII) is looking pretty ugly, down 93 cents, or 3.22%, to 27.97, on 445,685 shares traded. This stock continues to show wedge after wedge, flag after flag, and now it’s showing a falling flag. It looks like it’s about to collapse down to 22, my next target.
