Three of those survived my screening for odds of success in the breakout direction and distance from earnings announcements.
And all three moved back within their price channels this morning and so failed to confirm their beakouts.
The three survivors that failed confirmation are DRE, FISV and CYN. All broke out to the upside.
I'll monitor them today and revisit them if they move back above their channel boundaries, although they appear unlikely to do so at this hour.
The 1,838 issues in my universe have an average volume above 500,000 shares a day. They are tracked by the stock rating company Zacks. And they have, since the beginning of the post-crash recovery in 2009, had better than even odds of profitable price-channel breakouts, either bullish or bearish.
