Thursday's Prospects: Round 2

Here is how the survivors of my first round of analysis fared. See "Thursday's Prospects".

The one survivor among the large- and mid-cap symbols traded on major exchanges, ASBC, was a bear signal, but it lacks the liquidity needed to support a bear trade. Sames goes for ANGO, the small-cap symbol that broke out to the downside.

The three high-volume large-cap symbols from round one that broke out to the downside rose to within their 20-day price channels and so failed confirmation: QQQ, QLD and SCHW.

That leaves the one upside breakout of the lot: Horizon Pharma Inc. (HZNP), a small-cap company. I'll be posting an analysis later in the day.
