CASI Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (CASI) is doing well. On Tuesday, it popped 48 cents, or 7.21%, to 7.14, on 769,650 shares traded. The volume picked up a little bit and it may be beginning to move out of here. The target going forward is 10.
Cameco Corporation (CCJ), a uranium company, formed a left shoulder-head-right shoulder, and is right at the neckline. It spiked 62 cents, or 6%, to 11.15, on 5.5 million shares on Tuesday. I’m looking at the 12 1/2-13 1/2 zone. If it gets through that, on a longer-term basis where you might see this stock make a bigger move up towards key-key resistance could be tested at some point. That comes in around 17 1/2-18. So, my targets on this stock are 13 1/2 and 17 1/2.
Immunomedics, Inc. (IMMU) has a beautiful long-term chart, rising parallel channel, and long consolidation. It looks like the 19.04 area was taken out with another 83 cents, or 4.56%, on 1.9 million shares on Tuesday. At this point, I’m looking for 23 and 25 as the next targets on IMMU.
Mirati Therapeutics, Inc. (MRTX), a swing trade that we put in September, continues to improve. The last 3-4 months it’s been consolidating nicely. It looks like it may have come through the declining topsline, consolidated, and is moving back up again. On Tuesday, it jumped 1.85, or 6%, to 32.65, on 346,462 shares traded. Going forward I am looking at 33 1/2, a retest of 37, and then low 40’s.

Days to cover is the amount of short interest divided by the company's average daily share volume. In other words, the number of days required to close out all the short positions. A higher number means more potential fuel to a stock’s rally as shorts cover, and thus accelerate the move, when the stock’s price rises.
On Balance Volume (OBV), developed by Joe Granville, is a running summation of volume on up-days minus volume on down days. OBV rises when volume on up days outpaces volume on down days -- and falls when volume on down days is stronger. A rising OBV reflects positive volume pressure that can lead to higher prices. Conversely, falling OBV reflects negative volume pressure that can foreshadow lower prices.
