Category: Weekly Watchlist

Not one momentum trade on this week’s list — every name is either coiling in a base or turning up out of a downtrend.

This week’s breakout screen is a real-economy watchlist — autos, farm machinery, dry-bulk shipping, oilfield services, packaging, and healthcare, plus two mature-tech cash generators. Six names have already broken out; four are still coiled.

Half of this week’s list is triangles — three symmetrical, two ascending — stocks compressing toward a breakout rather than trending. The ascending triangles are the bullish tell. When a coiled chart releases, the move is sharp, so the daily close is what we’re waiting on.

Half of these 10 stocks are reversal setups — falling wedges and a downtrend break in beaten-down names trying to turn.

This week’s list runs small and speculative — six names under $25 and four in healthcare, three of them biotech.

The symmetrical triangle dominates this week’s watchlist — four of the 10 names tightening toward a breakout. Six setups have already fired; four are still forming. See all 10, with the buy levels we’re watching.

Four of this week’s 10 breakout candidates have direct energy or nuclear exposure — including two pure nuclear plays on the same screen in the same week. See the full table and setups here.

The screen broadened out this week. After two consecutive sector-concentrated lists — software, then defensive — this week’s 10 names span six sectors with no single sector dominating. Seven of 10 have already broken out. The other three are still inside their patterns.

The screen turned defensive this week. After last week’s enterprise software dominance, the breakouts are clustered in healthcare and consumer names instead — four healthcare, three consumer, one software. Seven of the 10 are still inside their patterns. The trade is mostly anticipation.

Eight have already broken out; two are still inside their patterns.

Half of this week’s watchlist sits in two sectors — three aerospace and defense names and two RF semiconductor names. Sector concentration matters this week.

Seven of the 10 names on this week’s list are still inside their patterns. They haven’t broken out yet. The setups are formed, the trigger levels are visible, but the trigger itself hasn’t fired. Trade accordingly.
