FRI 3/6: PNTG – BUYING (1/3) @ $33.64

3:54 PM – Found this bullish setup while running my daily afternoon stock screens. It carries super-high ranks, is in a strong industry group, and the company has a solid fundamental history.

Technically, shares recently blasted higher on earnings, then settled in right at and just above the 10 DMA in a very orderly fashion.

Today, the stock is again moving higher with a +48% increase in volume. That type of action signals institutional demand.

Highly ranked, fundamentally sound stocks that are advancing from the 10 DMA on strong volume = MY BUY SIGNAL.

ULTRA Trader’s Tip: Let the Stock Prove Itself

  • The strongest leaders often pause at the 10 DMA before their next move higher.

  • When price advances from that level on expanding volume, institutions are usually involved.

  • Entering in thirds allows the stock to prove itself before building a full position.
