Watchers for the 7-23-13 trading session

ZHNE

Supernovae, still maturing. See my previous comments, still in effect for entryt/exit/trade management angles. Rose 6.5%+ today on still decent, but lessening volume.


USU

New Supernovae scan return. A 7 day move up which closed below the highs and above the open. Volume modest most days, huge Monday. Eventually this can be shorted since it is up so absurdly. I suspect like many such plays it can go further than anyone expects, though. Conditional entry. On a higher open, it might yield a rapid green to red on Tuesday and spike down for a short scalp. This might even be a gap and crap. A fade on confirmed weakness cues anytime or heavy dumping on volume from or near the bell. Ideal is a flat or barely green or red open, followed by a big move down on volume to short into. Avoid big gaps, especially downward ones. Do not short into initial strength or greening. Box and drop to wait for the distribution print, if desired and avoid top fish timing fades. Keep flat on positive price action, avoid scalps.


NRBT

Another new Supernovae, see my comments for the above stock for general approach tips. Similar situation.


FDML

New 52's. Short term, these yearly high stocks often go higher. Consistently strong price action, like trading above the opening price level after the first 5 minutes, is a long. Or, if it gaps down a bit to debut or opens flat and falls briefly, a red to green and hold with strong volume. Also long on spiking up at or near the gun as a scalp. This might be an EOD exit, depending on how it holds up. Also long on a break above to new yearly highs (over 13.98) and holds. Avoid shorts, keep flat on true weakness. Nice move above 11.50. Needs to keep above the Monday close, or at least above 13 on pull backs to remain viable as a long, aside from any early noise. No A/H quote shift.


SEM

Red floater scan return. Idea is to play for more down side on day 2. Closed almost unchanged on Monday off a flat open that ended just below the debut. Stop just above the Monday session high (9.05) to cap losses on head fake fade entries. I'm only into the shorting possibility if it surfaces, keeping flat on strength. Also a short on heavy volume dumps/confirmed weakness cues. Modest sell volume on Monday means it might have some chances to work. A 9 fail may be ideal. Avoid big gaps/longs. Panic dump?


NGD

B/O scan. I like it long back over 7.48 and holds. Ideal to stay over that on tests aside from early noise if it triggers. Stops also possible just under the close on Monday or the 1st 30 minute low of Tuesday. Avoid all shorts and all big gaps. The low on Monday is arguably too far away to use for risk managing stops. Also a long on spiking up at or near the gun as a scalp. Modest volume on the rise, a decent sign for new buys. Down A/H a tad. Exiting below 7.25 on fails after trigger entry is possibly advisable. Early r/g?


GSM

Bullish Engulfing. I like this long over 11.56/holds. Low volume on the rise, which is a fair sign for new buyers. Keep flat on real weakness aside from a typical red to green move, etc. Stops just under the low last time or the initial 30 minute one Tuesday. More conservatively a stop placed under Monday's close, too. The low on that day is arguably not too far away to use for stops. Ideally stays above 11.30 on pull backs to remain viable as a long if it triggers. No big gaps or shorts. No A/H quote shift.
