Tuesday Swing Signals, Trend Leaders, Trend Busters and Gaps for Dec 1, 2009

This post is announcing that Tuesday's Swing Signals, Trend Leaders, Trend Busters and Gap Signals are now available at Alert HQ. All are based on daily data.

Today we have the following:
  • 62 Swing Signals -- 59 BUY signals and 3 SELL Signals.
  • 231 Trend Leaders, all in strong up-trends according to Aroon, MACD and DMI. We have 70 stocks that are new additions to the list and 75 that fell off the previous list.
  • 46 Trend Busters of which 37 are BUY signals and 9 are SELL signals.
  • 202 Gap Signals -- stocks with upside or downside gaps or gaps that have been closed. 100 are bearish gaps and 102 are bullish gaps.
The view from Alert HQ --

Well, December sure got off to a good start and our signals reflect the improved tone.

When we get a surge in BUY signals on the Swing Trading Signals list, it often means we'll see further gains in the major averages. We got that surge today so I am optimistic that this will be a strong week for stocks.

Further confirmation of resurgent bullishness is there on the Trend Busters list, too. Here again we have a surge in BUY signals. Only one question, though: why so many Japan ETFs breaking above their trend lines today?

Today's signals are broad-based with most sectors represented, especially tech, healthcare, telecom, financials and energy. That's a good mix and I believe it provides a good base for further gains this week.

Using our signals --

If you're a momentum trader, the Trend Leaders list is a good place to go shopping. If you practice technical analysis, check out the Trend Busters. And if you are a short-term trader or even a day trader, our Swing Signals or Gap Signals may provide some good trading ideas.

Pick 'o the Month - a two'fer

Usually I focus on a single smaller, more obscure stock. In this case, I would like to submit two stocks, a large-cap, Cisco Systems ( CSCO ), and a small-cap, Big Band Networks ( BBND ). These two stocks embody a resurgence in the network infrastructure space. That theme is what ties these two picks together. With the rising tide of video, music and movies downloaded over the Internet and cable companies offering bundled TV, phone and Internet, we have finally absorbed the glut of network capacity created during the Internet bubble. This deluge of multimedia is changing service providers’ business models, and the ways they manage and develop networks. The focus now is on how to move, manage and monetize content that is richer and more complex than ever before. In response, as telecommunications companies ramp up newer, faster networks to handle all this traffic, Cisco Systems is a prime beneficiary. As the dominant player in network infrastructure, it has already seen profits begin to...
