Price could test the 52-week high at $18.59 if all goes well later this week. Next target is the ATH at 19.36. Participate with a call vertical on the notion that the company earnings report on, or around Aug 3 will show continued revenue growth. (%2B) BUY +2 VERTICAL ATEC 100 18 AUG 23 17.5/20 CALL @1.20 LMT This is a speculative play in the healthcare sector, and since the company has yet to make money, small size is warranted. Be prepared to exit before earnings or roll the dice for an August surprise. Another alternative for a longer hold through earnings release: BUY +1 DIAGONAL ATEC 100 20 OCT 23/18 AUG 23 17.5/20 CALL @1.90
- DrScience: $ATEC has crossed above the downtrend line from recent high after a pullback to the 8 EMA. Bought shares at 17.50, added at 17.10 on Friday, and adding above 18.25. Target is $20 over the next two weeks. Earnings are tentatively scheduled for Aug 3.
- DrScience: @scottrades $TMDX Also, $ATEC bouncing from the 8 EMA.
- mharps: $ATEC small starter med devices
- mharps: $ATEC added to a small position
- zimzala: @bRobert $JYNT Indeed. I just wish my long in $ATEC would kick into gear...
- spmeyers: @cooper.cardinale $ATEC $MOD best to buy MOD when it tags the 50-day; one could accumulate shares
- zimzala: $ATEC 5 year high. Long from $6.
- cooper.cardinale: $ATEC $MOD Thoughts?
- zimzala: $ATEC Inside week and up on descent volume.
- zimzala: $ATEC 5 year high. Earnings sometime today.
- zimzala: $ATEC Descent ER AHs and hasn’t been affected by the recent market volatility. 5 year C&H (if that’s a thing) and high.
- zimzala: $ATEC Not great at interpreting C&H patterns on a monthly chart but this may be in play above $16.80. Anyone with better eyes feel free to chip in...
- lostsheep: $ATEC pullback to bo level and 8ems and bounce
- issues: @debeers $AXSM others in this biomedical group include: $ACST (up 40% in 10 days) $GLPG (35%) $ENLV (25%) $ARCT (25%) $ARWR $ATEC. We are holding positions in AXSM ARCT ARWR ATEC...
- issues: @petros06 $ARQL We are holding ARQL and will continue holding through the conference unless it drops dramatically. Then we might buy more. It's been a good one to hold with a potential surprise at the conference. Who knows? But the small cap bios have been good to us. Now holding these: $ADVM $ARWR $ATEC $AXSM....
- issues: I bought $CFMS & $ATEC and sold partial positions in $ARCT $SSO $DG $COST
- issues: What's new on IBD 50? This week's new additions: $BPOP $CDW $DFS $ETSY $FND $FNKO $G $MNST $NGVT $OLED $PAGS & $TGE What's taken off? $AME $AMZN $ANET $AWI $BERY $CDNS $DISCA $MTOR $MTZ $REXR $SSNC $STOR $WLTW. As I look at the charts of those taken off vs those newly added, I wonder how in the world do they decide what to take off and what to put on. I don't think they use charts, b/c I don't see any pattern to their actions! Do you? Doing my diligent research on $NVCR mentioned today in the magnanimous Forum (here!): I found these in the same industry group #68 Med Products: $MDXG $QDEL $CFMS $zyxi & $ATEC Just looking at these charts, what do you see? $ATEC looks like an interesting flag pattern (phase 2?). What else do YOU see?
- spmeyers: $ATEC making a run at 52-week high
- Bridget: $ATEC at least this one is working for me. Not a highly traded stock but seen some decent volume since the split last month. A bit extended on the daily but the weekly chart shows this breakout might just be getting started.
- Bridget: $ATEC is now up 16%, doesn't make up for $NVAX but at least makes me feel a little better.
- traderbren: @Bridget $ATEC $NVAX - sorry, but just have to laugh, as I'm in the same boat. Just gotta roll with the punches.
- Bridget: Notes: SPY is in a triangle pattern with the bottom at around $212.40. $ATEC - great example of a post split breakout $SBUX $PNRA $RAI $MO $EXPE $GCP $PAYX - not looking strong $CSX - nice gradual breakout $CLVS - working $SCOR - high volume move $SGYP - phase 2 $MSCC - breakout with increasing volume $HALO - breakout on weekly chart with volume
- Bridget: $ATEC not a stock I've looked at in this past due to its low volume but seen quite an increase in the past three weeks since it split. Now the stock is close to breaking out of a year long basing pattern. This increase in volume could certainly give this cheap stock some big momentum. Anyone else know something about this stock?
- Gabe: Here are some stock that I'm watching: $AEM APA $ATEC CF $CNX DAR $DBA DBC $ICLR ILMN $MCF MTL $NEU PBR PCX POT $RTN TEVA $TIP I follow a lot more, so I just picked the ones I like the most now. Ideally, I'd like them to pull back to support (preferrably 50DMA), hold there, and then I'd like to buy them on a higher-volume breakout (not today). If someone sees some serious fundamental issues with my picks, please let me know. Of course life is not ideal, so I'll stay flexible. Note that this is not a bullish call on the overall market, that just looks terrible now. Congrats to the shorts this week, I wasn't brave enough to keep my shorts like I should have. Long: $AEM, $RTN, $TIP, others not mentioned, but still heavy cash. Everyone have a good weekend!
- Gabe: Hi Team, although most of us at SMM have a bearish bias due to the symmetrical triangle continuation pattern in the S&P 500 index, I wanted to mention a few signs that I believe point to more downside or choppiness ahead. Please take a look at the following charts: . If you are not a professional day trader, don't force it. You will most likely never learn to do it right, because your attention is limited, and you are slower than quant funds that trade automatically. In other words, you don't have an edge in this market against other traders, who are also forcing their trades. Of course, I'm not advocating that you should not short the market when conditions are ripe, but don't force buys and sells every day, only take the best entries. Do yourself a favor, and save your dough. When the next bull market starts, you will easily outperform the market by getting in the right stocks. You just have to be around when the time comes...
