Re: SNDK ... I don't know whether you are looking to get in or looking to take profits. I'd like to review the 2 buy set ups that appeared with SNDK.

In looking at a weekly chart, we see a rising 20 week moving average above a rising 40 week moving average with a comfortable distance between the two. This is a bullish alignment. When you have a bullish alignment, every pull back into or near the rising 20 period moving average is buyable. This was buy point #1.

Buy point #2 was when price broke above the recent high, clearly shown on the accompanying chart.

If looking to get in, I would not do so at this time. I would wait for a consolidation on the daily chart. Maybe a 3-5 bar reversal, maybe a pull back into a rising 10 day moving average, which is often a good buy point on a strong uptrending stock.

If looking to take profits, I would track the lows. As soon as price drops below the low of the previous day, I would take some profits. In the case of a price gap, like SNDK showed today, selling under the previous bar's low gives up too much ground. In this case I would set a stop under today's low.
