Omeros, Mattel, And 3 Other Stocks In Clear Trending Patterns This Week
In light of Monday's volatility, here are five stocks to watch this week according to VantagePoint, a platform that uses artificial intelligence and Intermarket analysis to predict price movement.
What's On The Charts
Each candle on the following stock charts represents one day of trading action.
The black line on the chart is a simple 10-day moving average.
The blue line is generated via the AI in VantagePoint's intermarket analysis. It forecasts what the moving average will be 48 hours in advance.
As you can probably tell, shaded areas of the candle chart represent whether the stock is in an uptrend or downtrend.
A trend shift is represented by the two lines crossing. As long as the two lines don't cross, the current trend remains intact.
The red/green bar below the candle chart is a Neural Index. It determines whether a stock will move higher or lower in the coming two days.
