( click to enlarge )This week OCLR's stock gained more than 15%. with the shares closing Friday at $4.17. Today’s intraday high of 4.19 is the highest level the stock has touched in more than a two months. The chart looks really bullish in short-term as the stock is trading above 50-day moving average and the 20-day MA crossed above 50-day MA recently. In addition, both KD and MACD show bullish signal as MACD is above 0 and KD is going up. Any pullback to the moving average would be a buying opportunity.
( click to enlarge )InterDigital, Inc.(NASDAQ:IDCC) was also a winner this week. The stock has been on a downtrend since it reached 52-weeks high of $82.50 in early July 2011. However, it seems Interdigital stock maybe reversing to a uptrend as the most recent support at 41.06 is higher than the previous support level of 38.51 which show an uptrend. The chart also indicates bullish sign as the 20-day moving average has crossed above 50-day moving average with KD going up and MACD in positive territory. If the stock can keep going up and break the resistance at $49.19 this could further confirm the uptrend.
( click to enlarge )Shares of Accuray Incorporated (NASDAQ:ARAY) have been rising significant this month, going from 4.20 to $5.25 today gaining almost 25%. The recent spike in price has pushed the stock into a short-term overbought zone. The implication is that a short-term downward correction could materialise and a test of the support zone at $4.7-$4.62 appears likely.
( click to enlarge )Shares of Ciena Corporation (NASDAQ:CIEN) have been going up for 5 weeks now. The stock is now near the red line as RSI approaches the 80 level. It may still move up some cents but I expect a correction any time as I have observed that a lot of indicators have already reached overbought level. Right now it is way too risky for a long position.
( click to enlarge )Renren Inc (NYSE:RENN) has rallied from below $3.40 to above $4.50 in just two weeks, a gain of over 30%. The technical chart shows very strong upward momentum as the stock is trading above the 50 day moving average with 20-day moving average going up. At this point, I will be a buyer only once it breaks through today’s high of $4.52 for the continuation move. Stochastics are overbought but remain bullish signaling.
( click to enlarge )This stock was not a winner this week but I do not think it will stay here for long. Daily technical indicator OBV still showing support for last couple of weeks. Might be something in the works, but that is speculative until we get real news. Novatel Wireless, Inc. (NASDAQ:NVTL) should continue to be on watch and if we break the 3.09 cent resistance level the stock could retest its October highs.
( click to enlarge )When I first alerted everyone this morning on twitter about FORM, I fully expected a solid run and an increase in share price, but what we got was much more than I could have even hoped for. Shares of FormFactor, Inc. (NASDAQ:FORM) closed the day gaining more than 6 percentage. Its technical chart show some bullish signals as KD is now going up and the stock breaks above the 20-day moving average. With this daily chart bull signal its very possible that we could see a continuation into next week.
