Alert HQ signals for Tuesday, March 2, 2010

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:
  • 16 Swing Signals -- 12 BUY signals and 3 SELL Signals and one Strong BUY.
  • 434 Trend Leaders, all in strong up-trends according to Aroon, MACD and DMI. We have 222 stocks that are new additions to the list and 66 that fell off the previous list.
  • 73 Trend Busters of which 60 are BUY signals and 13 are SELL signals.
  • 169 Gap Signals -- stocks with upside or downside gaps or gaps that have been closed. 81 are bearish gaps and 88 are bullish gaps.
The view from Alert HQ --

Another modest gain for stocks today on modest volume.This has been a theme of many rallies over the last six months. As long as stocks advance, though, who's complaining?

As many pundits question the underpinnings of a rising market, we see our Trend Leaders list surge to include more than 430 stocks and ETFs. This demonstration of broad-based strength is fortified by the expansion of the Trend Busters list -- 60 out of 73 stocks breaking to the upside is a rather bullish statement.

So it seems like it's still safe to assume to we have a nice short-term rally underway with the potential to extend it into an intermediate-term advance. To take advantage of this move, why not browse Alert HQ to find those stocks generating BUY signals today?

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.

This first post in the series starts at the beginning: getting good investment ideas. Key #1: If something special is happening to a stock, it will be reflected in some kind of unusual activity in the markets.

Interactive Ads - Google one-ups Yahoo again

Google's ( GOOG ) press release describing the expansion of a beta program for what are being called Gadget Ads has again shown that Google is unparalleled at melding technology and advertising to benefit its bottom line. Gadget Ads are mini-web pages or "widgets" that can be embedded within publisher pages. I have written in the past on Yahoo's ( YHOO ) Smart Ads and how, by more precisely targeting site users and adjusting ad content accordingly, they provide a much desired evolution of the banner or display ad format. Though Smart Ads and Gadget Ads are not really the same, I think it is fair to say that Google has seen the challenge of Smart Ads and has chosen to leapfrog Yahoo by rolling out its own update to the display ad format. The evolution of the Gadget Ad -- One of the trends on the Internet over the last year or so involves software developers creating "widgets" which can be hosted within web pages and blogs. Widgets can be pretty much any
