RDUS Radius Health Measuring Gap – Potential Technical Price Target 100 US Dollar

Thursday RDUS – Radius Health released good news and the stock gapped higher. As I outlined in my previous post Getting exposure to high quality set-ups like RDUS – Radius Health is the way to go. This simply increases the odds for good things to happen.

Assuming RDUS will close strong, this will leave a strong white candle on the chart and a clearly visible gap. My best guess would be for it to be a measuring gap. These often tend to occur right in the middle of a move. In this case this would imply a technical price target slightly above 100$. If my analysis is correct the gap won’t be filled until the target is acquired. Right now, for position traders RDUS is a great stock to hold. Especially if you entered using the stop buy I suggested earlier. As long as the stock stays strong and acts well, ride the uptrend.

Buy DJ-UBS Grains Total Return Sub-Index ETN (JJG), or the MLCX Grains Index TR ETN (GRU) & Go Long Agriculture

So, how should you play the 2015-2016 El Niño?

You could trade the more active, nearby grain futures contracts and roll them upon expiration. But, if you aren’t willing to do that, there are always agriculture and grain indices ETNs that are more user friendly. Check out the DJ-UBS Grains Total Return Sub-Index ETN (JJG), or the MLCX Grains Index TR ETN (GRU), both of which track the performance of agriculture futures.

http://etfdb.com/factsheets/JJG/

The good news is that agriculture futures prices are currently quite low, so it’s a good time to get in.

But don’t wait for Mother Nature to do her thing, because she can be fickle.
Look out for future GIEWS reports, which monitor the condition of major food crops across the globe to assess production prospects.

It would also be smart to check out the newly developed FAO-Agricultural Stress Index System, which detects agricultural areas with a high likelihood of water stress (drought) at the global level.

Bed Bath & Beyond Inc. (BBBY): BBBY Stock Issues Death Cross – Sell Now

Bed Bath & Beyond Inc. (BBBY) — This retail chain operates 1,500 superstores that sell domestic home furnishings. Competition in a difficult retail environment, a higher tax rate, unfavorable exchange rates, high employee benefit packages, the encroachment of e-commerce and price transparency are squeezing operating margins.
Credit Suisse Equity Research noted EBITDA growth was only 1.3% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014 (ended Feb. 28) and down for the full year. Credit Suisse and S&P Capital IQ recently lowered their earnings and price targets on BBBY stock.
Management’s goal is to open 30 new stores with the intent of increasing square footage by 1% to 3%, but the risk of an unexpected decline in consumer spending and the trend toward online shopping makes this approach risky.
BBBY stock broke down in early April from a triple-top at about $78. The stock descended into a channel down with resistance at its 50-day moving average, now at $71.24, and the descending resistance line.
Last week, the 50-day moving average crossed down through the 200-day moving average, a long-term negative signal called a death cross, ending a rally at the 50-day moving average on Friday.
On-balance-volume has been trending lower since January, indicating the bear market in BBBY stock is far from over. Insider selling has been high for the past 12 months and very high in the past three months. Nasdaq.com shows 21 insider sells representing 307,707 shares in the past 90 days and zero insider buys.
Sell BBBY stock if you own it. Traders may want to sell shares short at $71 with a downside target of $63 for an 11% profit.

Stocks To Watch: ISIL, CBAY, HDS, FB

( click to enlarge )

Intersil Corp (NASDAQ:ISIL) broke the downtrend line last week on decent volume and looks like it is taking a little breather here before moving back above the $13.70 zone which would be the next buy point. If momentum continues as I expect next week, I think there are lot of profits left on the table for traders to capitalize on. Options traders are buying calls. A quick look at the technical daily chart : 

1) MACD lines are going up 
2) RSI still above the neutral 50 level at 54, buyers strength still persists. 
3) CMF is positive 
4) The +DI crossed up through the -DI las week - Bullish. 
5) OBV still climbing. 
6) The accumulation/distribution indicator shows the stock is under strong accumulation 

Honestly speaking, there is some upside potential, which makes it worth watching for the next few days. Keep watching the stock.
