— 10/11/2013:

Symbol: BCR (NYSE)

Signal:  LONG

New LONG signal on BCR, which found its way to the bottom of that year-long uptrending channel and has rebounded upwards with authority on news out of DC.    We continue to use the profitable trading pattern detected previously which goes back to 3/09/13.

9/17/2013

Symbol: BCR (NYSE)

Signal:  SHORT

New SHORT signal on BCR, which has reached the top of a year-long uptrending channel.  We are noticing sell signals on a number of healthcare services/device companies which have enjoyed hefty gains, so this is likely a corrective move on an over-done sector.  Profitable trading pattern goes back to 3/09/13.
