Something I've been noticing lately is that a lot of stocks have been breaking out to new highs with no confirming volume. Is the rally we've been having the last few days a real rally? or are the pros on Wall Street painting the tape? Anyway, here are the chart requests.
The *ed charts are ones that I recommend you look at before you leave. Don't forget to subscribe the RSS feed and check the chart alerts (they're updated in real time as fast as new alerts become availible to the public).

Nice rally on the markets today. Here's the requests for 3/30.
That's all for today. The * next to certain tickers means that I particularly like those stock charts, so be sure to at least check out the *'ed charts before you leave.

Here are the stock chart requests for 3/28.
LMNX and ABC look particularly good to me (and my style of trading), so give those a look for sure. I particularly like LMNX because it seems to be setting up for an ascending triangle move.

I'm glad people are taking advantage of the chart request feature. Here's the requests I got for today.
Doing random charts is fun (for me at least), so feel free to make a request in the Chart Request Forum. Registration is required, but its instant and painless.

Today's chart requests were: QQQQ, YHOO, DST from Space4u2go and PHO from Ian.
If you'd like to make a chart request, please get over to The Bull Trader Forums and make a post in the Chart Requests section. Registration is INSTANT and painless, so do it!
Also, Google Finance is up! I don't really like it. It's too cluttered and bloated. I still like Yahoo Finance better. It seems like Google Finance was designed by someone who's not particularly experienced with the needs of investors and traders.

Here’s a fundamental screen I just ran for fun.

The indices aren’t looking that good at the moment, so trade carefully.

This whipsaw market is really getting annoying. Here are some ascending triangle related setups from my scan for Friday.
- GEPT - Global Epoint Inc
- GDI - Gardner Denver Inc
- VTAL - Vital Images Inc
I have no internet in my apartment right now, so I’ll have to leave it at that. Take care.

Hope everyone is having a good weekend. Just wanted to stop by and post up some ascending triangle breakouts.
-
DKS -
Dick’s Sporting Goods Inc
-
RGA -
Reinsurance Group of America Inc
-
DKS has a nice sloped trendline. RGA is ok. DCO is a great looking ascending triangle setup but the stock has liquidity issues. Don’t forget to subscribe to this blog on your way out.

Here are some latest ascending triangle breakouts.
-
HXM -
Homex Development Corp
- SBAC - SBA Communications Corp
- GVA - Granite Construction Inc
- LUK - Leucadia National Corp
I have no idea where the markets are headed right now, so I’ll probably be on the sidelines. I like HXM if it retraces. SBAC has been flying for the last 6 months. GVA had a clean breakout on big volume today.

The markets showed a lot of strength today after experiencing a harsh retrace from the rally we had at the beginning of this month. I’m a bull trader and I trade only in bull markets, so here are some ascending triangle breakouts.
- CCI - Crown Castle International Corp
- FCFS - First Cash Financial Services Inc
- CKP - Checkpoint Systems Inc
The picks are pretty self explanatory. I didn’t like the selloff in todays markets late afternoon, but I will be watching carefully for clues on whether the markets will trend strongly or not. By the way, check out The Bull Trader Hedge Fund. Now accepting deposits.

Only one ascending triangle setup for Tuesday caught my eye.
HRS looks pretty nice. It’s not really an ascending triangle, but I can understand why it came up on my scan. It has broken out to blue skies territory. Remember to subscribe to The Bull Trader so you don’t miss any plays. Enjoy the long weekend. Someone please buy this for me.

Here are a few stocks that came up on my ascending triangle scan today.
-
-
WMI -
Waste Management Inc
-
-
VLO is running into some resistance. WMI looks ok. HBC is my favorite. DLA was a perfect setup but it looks too hot to enter right now. It also has liquidity issues. However, it may be a good long candidate on the retrace.

I’m too lazy to chart these up, but I still wanted to share with you guys the results of my scan. Here’s what my ascending triangle scan spit out today.
- LNC - Lincoln National Corp
-
FCL - Foundation Coal Holdings Inc
-
My favorite setup is BVX, but that stock has liquidity issues so I’ll be staying away. The BVX chart reminds me of the ascending triangle in PRLS a few months ago though.
FCL looks like it just came off of an Adam and Eve reversal bottom.
