These stocks are from the “High of the Day Scan” wherein prices closed in the upper half of the daily range after a bounce off a bullish 9/21/50d support level(s). In addition, most of the candidates are stocks we’ve traded or currently have managed swing positions. Finally, we need the markets rising, providing a tailwind for potential follow through.
LLY and VMW
Most of the candidates look similar to LLY and VMW. Both have bounced at support, anticipating follow through today if the indices continue to provide a tailwind after the Opening Bell. Look for buyers after the opening range if RVOL is elevated.
