3 ‘Cheap’ Stocks Set to Double: RAD, FIG, WEN

Sometimes the stock market will punish a great company for no good reason, and send a stock below its fair value.
Wouldn’t it be great if you could identify which stocks under $10 sold off without a good reason, so you could jump in and profit?

To review Verfone’s stock, please take a look at the 1-year chart of PAY (VeriFone Systems, Inc.) below with my added notations:
1-year chart of PAY (VeriFone Systems, Inc.)
PAY has been trending higher all year and since February the stock has been climbing a trendline of support (blue). Over the last 2 months though, the stock has formed at 52-week high resistance at $35 (red). At some point PAY will have to break one of those two levels.

The Tale of the Tape: PAY has a $35 resistance and an uptrend line of support to watch. A long trade could be made on either a pullback down to the trendline, which currently sits near $32, or on a break through the $35 resistance. A break below the trendline support should lead to lower prices.
