This is what I have written in my notebook from my watchlist for today.
$BIOC - Closed yesterday at 1.61 and was 1.64 pre-market. I thought this would spike up today possibly to around 2.00. It did not. It reached 1.65. I thought it might close around 1.70 today. It actually closed at 1.59. Overall it went down for today when I thought it might rise. This shows that you cannot always think a pattern will repeat the following day, anything can happen. This is why watching the price action is so important.
$RCON - Closed yesterday at 1.55. I thought this would spike to around 1.90 and close the day around 1.60 - 1.65. It did go up, but only to 1.66 and closed at yesterday's close price of 1.55. I was off on this one, but it did travel the direction I thought it was going to, just not as far as I thought.
$MNKD - Closed yesterday at .77 and was .75 pre-market today. This one shocked me. I thought it was going to continue its downward pattern today. It reversed and went as high as .99 and closed at .82, aftermarket was showing .84. Apparently this spike was related to potential good news after a presentation at a JPMorgan event today: http://www.fool.com/investing/general/2016/01/13/why-mannkind-corportion-is-soaring-today.aspx?source=eogyholnk0000001&utm_source=yahoo&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=article
$NXTD - Closed yesterday at .37. I thought it would climb to around .60 and close around .40. It climbed only to .4377 and closed at .3911. I was on the right track, but it did not quite hit my estimates. Again, this one did travel the direction I thought it would even though it did not hit my estimates.
$ICLD - Closed yesterday at .65 I thought this would spike up to .90 and close the day around .75. It spiked up to 1.12 , came down and went back up to 1.17 for the high. It closed the day at .72. this stock moved farther than I expected. It feels good to pick a stock like this even if I did not have money available to play it. I hope others had the opportunity to profit from this one today.
$HMY - Opened at 1.46 after closing yesterday at 1.35. I thought this would spike this morning, possibly close to 2.00 and close at 1.50 to 1.60 range. It actually only went up to 1.60 and closed the day at 1.53. Did not spike as high as I thought, but did travel the direction I thought and closed where I was expecting.
nice recap, especially on the thought with ICLD..I missed it today tho..woke up late.
$MNKD I thought was a good play, broke the day high towards the close yesterday and finished stong. My idea was to buy at this breakout yesterday and hold into a morning spike today. If I'd done this I'd have seen +$2 a share. Hope some other people caught this.
