Watchlist for May 23, 2006

We’ve got some strength in the futures this morning. Both QQQQ and SPY are trading a hair below yesterday’s highs. I want to see those highs taken out and then a series of higher highs & higher lows on the intraday chart before I become a buyer.

Potential swing trades:

Shorts: None

Longs: CSX, CTXS, FLR, GRMN, LRCX, MAN, MOLX, MTW, N, NOK, PH, PLXS, SWFT, SWIR, TRN, TXT, VECO, WFMI

See one of the recent ‘Chart Reading‘ posts for some potential swing candidates.
