THERE ISNT MUCH OUT THERE ON THE LONG SIDE FOR MONDAY.  THE SELL-OFF ON FRIDAY HAS THE MARKET SPOOKED SO BE CAREFUL WITH YOUR TRADING.  WE FOUND 3 PICKS FOR MONDAY’S TRADING DAY.  GOOD LUCK AND BE CAREFUL.

 

CHKP RESISTANCE LEVEL - $31.46

 

CHKP tried to move higher, but when the market sold off, the stock dropped as well.  Overall CHKP hung on pretty well, only dropping $.26 on the day.  We are watching the stock on Monday to see if the buyers come back to push the stock higher.  Resistance is $31.46, which is a 3-day range high.  Keep a close eye on CHKP because it will move quickly once it nears resistance.

 

 

INCY RESISTANCE LEVEL - $6.02

 

INCY looks to be setting up for an upside which and it could happen very soon.  If you look at the daily chart, you will see how the trading range has been decreasing the past few days, while the stock is trading near the top of this range.  This tells us to watch for this upcoming move.  We are using Thursday’s high of $6.02 as resistance for Monday’s move.  Keep a close eye on INCY throughout the day on Monday.

 

 

SYMC RESISTANCE LEVEL - $17.83

 

SYMC broke through its gap high on Friday, but was not able to hold on as the market sold off.  The stock hit a new high on Friday, but closed below the gap high from Thursday.  Since the stock closed below the gap high of $17.83, we are using this high as resistance for Monday’s move. If SYMC gaps above or trades through this level during the first 20 minutes of the morning, we will wait until it breaks Friday’s high of $18.00 before entering this trade.  Keep SYMC on your radar for Monday’s trading sessions.

CMCSA – No trade.  Stock did not break resistance.

 

MSFT – No trade. Stock did not break resistance.

 

ORCL – ORCL broke resistance after 10am EST, which is where we entered this trade.  The stock slowly climbed up to $21.59, which is when the market started to drop.  We sold at $21.57 for a quick profit because we did not want to hold any positions as the market started to fall apart.

 

SNDK – No trade.  Stock opened above resistance, hitting highs of the day at this time.
