    5 Top Stock Trades for Wednesday: PG, KSS, ROKU

    What a surge we got in the stock market today, with the S&P 500 taking out its prior record closing from 2018. Same for the Nasdaq. As nice as it is to see stocks moving higher, it does create a less attractive risk/reward for new longs. Let's see what top stock trades we can find as earnings continue to roll in.Twitter (NYSE:TWTR) is perhaps the most notable mover on the day. See to it that the stock now stays over former resistance, which was laid out the other day. I would also like to see it stay over its key Fibonacci retracement levels now. Top Stock Trades for Tomorrow 1: Procter & GambleInvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice & Trading TipsThis is how you know Procter & Gamble (NYSE:PG) came into the print too hot. The company beat on earnings and revenue estimates and bumped its full-year outlook. Still, shares fell 3.2% on Tuesday.The decline drops PG out of its rising channel and puts downside targets back on the table. Given how strong the stock has been and given that its report was more a sell-the-news event rather than panic on poor results, the first spot to look is the 50-day moving average. * 7 Digital Ad Stocks That Deserve Your Attention Right Now Should $100 to $101 fail to buoy PG, a decline into the mid-$90s is possible before buyers step in. I want to see where support comes in, and what happens on the ensuing rebound. Top Stock Trades for Tomorrow 2: Kohl's=Kohl's (NYSE:KSS) stock is rocketing higher on Tuesday, up 12%, on news that the company would expand its partnership with Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN).$80-ish is pretty clear resistance for the stock, which is erupting off uptrend support while the 20-week is crossing above the 50-week moving average. The latter development could signal a shift into bulls' favor as far as long-term momentum goes.However, in the intermediate term, I want to see how KSS does with uptrend resistance and the $80 level. A push through could create a new leg higher. A rejection provides a buy-the-dip opportunity. Top Stock Trades for Tomorrow 3: RokuShares of Roku (NASDAQ:ROKU) are popping nicely on Tuesday, up about 8% following a bullish analyst note.The stock is gapping up through the 20-day and 50-day moving average, a rally that's threatened to stall if shares pullback over the next session or two. However, I have my eyes on a larger level, that being downtrend resistance currently near $67.50.Should it get there, I expect Roku to run into some sellers. If a pullback ensues, see where the buyers step back in. Should we get a decline back to downtrend support and the 200-day, Roku is worth a shot on the long side, at least for a bounce.This one has been struggling, so it has to prove that momentum is back to trust it on the long side. Top Stock Trades for Tomorrow 4: Small CapsWith FAANG names roaring back, small caps may not be the main focus right now. However, the direction of the IWM has been a leading indicator at times.The good news for bulls is that iShares Russell 2000 ETF (NYSEARCA:IWM) is up 1.6% on Tuesday and outpacing all other indices. That said, it has some catching up to do.I loved the little pullback we got last week, with three straight declines, the last two of which tested down into moving average support and bounce to close basically flat each day. With the 20-day, 50-day and 200-day all just below the current price and resistance sitting at current levels, the strong rally in the IWM looks great.Should it breakout over this level, the IWM has room to run. While the S&P 500, Nasdaq and Dow are all hovering near their highs, the IWM could still run another $12 and not hit them. I really like a breakout over $158. Below last week's lows near $154.75 and I'd change my thesis. Top Stock Trades for Tomorrow 5: Johnson & JohnsonWhen Johnson & Johnson (NYSE:JNJ) reported earnings last week, the stock flirted with a big move over $140. However, that rally faded intraday, with JNJ closing near $138. That showed that JNJ was not yet ready for the breakout, although stalling at $140 should be no surprise. Ahead of the event, we wrote, "$140 is clearly short-term resistance."A pullback into the 20-day and 50-day moving average held, meaning JNJ had reset enough to warrant another look. Now here we are at $140 again, with JNJ stock threatening to move even higher. A close over $140 has me interested on the long side. * 10 High-Yielding Dividend Stocks That Won't Wilt Below the 50-day and I'll lose my interest. Above $140 opens the door to $146+ going forward.Bret Kenwell is the manager and author of Future Blue Chips and is on Twitter @BretKenwell. As of this writing, Bret Kenwell is long ROKU and AMZN.

    5 Must-See Stock Trades for Tuesday: TTD, GE, BAC, IWM, NBEV

    The market has been hot lately, so Monday's chill session shouldn't be a surprise. In fact, bulls may even consider this sleepy session a victory given that the market continues to hold onto its gains relatively well. Let's look at a few must-see stock trades. Must-See Stock Trades 1: New Age BeveragesAn expanding partnership with Walmart (NYSE:WMT) has New Age Beverages (NASDAQ:NBEV) racing higher Monday, up more than 32%.InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice & Trading TipsShares are running into and pulling back from its 38.2% retracement for the 52-week range. It would be encouraging to see it now hold the 50-day moving average and retry this level. Whether that second attempt comes tomorrow or next week, a move to $7.50 could eventually be in the cards should it give way. * 5 Data Center Buys That Deliver Sizable Income Despite the big move, shares are not yet technically overbought. If we get a slight pullback Tuesday morning that quickly goes green, that could pave the way to a quick bullish day trade. If NBEV holds up through the session, it may turn into a long swing trade. Must-See Stock Trades 2: Bank of AmericaThis one was looking wonderful as it broke out over $29.50, but then quickly unwound those gains by falling 10% in just a few days. We've had our eye on Bank of America (NYSE:BAC) and now that it's back in its range, it's worth looking at again.Shares are pulling back off range resistance, but could again trigger a breakout over $29.50. Investors may be a little gun shy this time around on a breakout given what happened last time. As such, they may rather buy a pullback into the $28 to $28.50 level. Below $28 and BAC is a no-touch. Must-See Stock Trades 3: Russell 2000 ETFThe Russell 2000 ETF (NYSEARCA:IWM) is not exactly leading to the upside vs. its other index peers. However, it's looking much better than it was a few weeks ago.In late-March, the 50-day moving average was giving way as support and the 200-day moving average was holding as resistance. Channel support was keeping the name in check and a larger correction was in question.However, the ETF has powered through channel resistance and the 200-day moving average has given way. We now need to see this $157.50 to $158.50 area give way to really let the IWM gallup higher.I love that the index isn't overbought and many names are still well below their highs going into earnings. We're seeing a rotation out of high octane growth names, but other areas are picking up the slack. Seeing the IWM pullback/consolidate a bit more ahead of earnings would be potentially bullish as well. Watch the $153 area as a key support level should the IWM correct. Must-See Stock Trades 4: The Trade DeskSo what growth names are taking a rest? The Trade Desk (NASDAQ:TTD) is certainly one, while investors can lump Roku (NASDAQ:ROKU) and Twilio (NYSE:TWLO) on the list as well.For TTD, a pullback to $180 could be bought as a solid risk/reward setup. Should it get there, the 50-day moving average, uptrend support and prior support should all play a role. Below opens the door to $160.It's a bit concerning that the stock put in a lower high, but after such a massive run, it was bound to happen at some point. It doesn't change the fact that TTD is one of the market's strongest growth names. Must-See Stock Trades 5: General ElectricA downgrade from key analyst Stephen Tusa of JPMorgan has shares of General Electric (NYSE:GE) reeling, down 6% on the day.Below $9.50 and GE looks destined for sub-$9. Earnings should be due up later this month, causing some investors to consider locking in short-term gains ahead of the quarter. That said, it's an interesting dynamic as some shorts may want to cover given what new CEO Larry Culp has been able to say to impress investors over the past few months. * 7 High-Risk Stocks With Big Potential Rewards If the 61.8% retracement can't support GE, $7.50 could eventually be on the table.Bret Kenwell is the manager and author of Future Blue Chips and is on Twitter @BretKenwell. As of this writing, Bret Kenwell is long ROKU.

    5 Top Stock Trades for Thursday: PAYX, IWM, CRON, TTD

    The stock market had a big bounce on Tuesday and started off higher on Wednesday as well. By lunchtime though, investors were staring at ~1% losses across the board, although they have since erased about half of those losses. What's going on out there? We remain in a messy, choppy market after the indices' big rally off the December lows. Let's look at what's moving in the market today and get an idea of what top stock trades to watch going through the rest of this week. Top Stock Trades for Tomorrow 1: Russell 2000 ETFLet's talk about the iShares Russell 2000 ETF (NYSEARCA:IWM). This name has been a leader over the past few quarters, both on the upside and the downside. Earlier this month, the IWM put in a lower high from the month prior and failed to hold its 200-day moving average.InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice & Trading TipsIt's now below the 50-day and 20-day moving averages as well. The setup is…not great. But that said, it's not like the rally is completely giving way. There are some negative catalysts working against stocks -- like fears of a global recession -- but the Fed remains patient and earnings aren't getting sacked. * 8 Genomic Testing Stocks That Can Ease the Sting of Theranos That, to me, limits our downside. However, that does not mean we're immune to a pullback and/or consolidation. Bulls may want to be a bit more cautious, at least until the IWM can recapture the 20-day and 50-day moving averages. I'm not a huge fan of the lower highs and lower lows, but that concern is only that, as long as we're over $145. Top Stock Trades for Tomorrow 2: Cronos GroupCronos Group (NASDAQ:CRON) is down about 10% after a number of downgrades came in following the company's quarterly results.So far, the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement for the 52-week range is holding up as support, but CRON is far from out of the woods. If this level fails, there could certainly be more downside.The prior breakout is down near $14 to $15, while the 50% retracement is at $15.06. So should CRON take out Wednesday's lows, this could be its destination down the road. Dip buyers need to use caution, especially with CRON below the 20-day and 50-day moving averages.A slightly higher open on Thursday followed by a decline that takes out Wednesday's low could give bears a low-risk short-term shorting opportunity. Top Stock Trades for Tomorrow 3: PaychexShares of Paychex (NYSE:PAYX) started off higher on the day, but faded from its opening gains after the company beat on earnings and reported in-line revenue results. PAYX stock is now down almost 2% on the day.The report wasn't necessarily bad, but perhaps it wasn't enough to sustain new highs. Worth noting though, PAYX did make new 52-week highs in the session. That said, it's near channel resistance on the weekly chart.At the very least, bulls may wait for a pullback into the 20-week or 50-week moving averages. However, waiting for a potential test of the 100-week moving average and/or channel support has proven to be much more prudent. It also allows bulls to enter into a less risky setup should it get there. Patience may be key here with PAYX. Top Stock Trades for Tomorrow 4: SouthwestShares of Southwest Airlines (NYSE:LUV) are rallying despite the company cutting its capacity guidance. A stock rallying on bad news is a good sign for a possible bottom.In either case, bulls have a reasonable setup. So far, the stock is holding above the 200-week moving average. Should the stock lose this level the recent lows near $45, it will tumble into no man's land. $45 is a notable multi-year level, but there's potential uptrend support (purple line) near this level as well.Aggressive bulls can go long on a weekly close over the 200-week moving average. Conservative bulls may want to wait for a potential pullback. If it materializes, an entry near $45 sets up a low-risk long. Top Stock Trades for Tomorrow 5: The Trade DeskThe Trade Desk (NASDAQ:TTD) has been a growth monster this year, but shares have been getting whacked over the past few sessions. Short-term uptrend support (blue line) didn't hold as support, nor did the 20-day moving average.That leaves the post-earnings open and the 50-day moving average near $170 on the table. Should these levels fail to hold, growth investors sure would love to snap this name up between $150 and $160. * 7 Reasons to Buy Housing Stocks in 2019 If you like mid cap growth stocks, TTD should surely be on your list. But keep in mind, it's a volatile one, so investors need a strong stomach.Bret Kenwell is the manager and author of Future Blue Chips and is on Twitter @BretKenwell. As of this writing, Bret Kenwell did not hold a position in any of the aforementioned securities.

    Growth Worries Bubble Up Again but the Charts Look Okay

    For a while on Tuesday, market participants forgot recent worries about the inverted yield curve and slowing economic growth.

The central banks are poised to deal quickly with any overt signs of weakness, and talk about an interest rate cut is going to build if the economic growth worries persist.
