Stock Picks Recap for 11/14/13
With each stock's recap, we will include a (with market support) or (without market support) tag, designating whether the trade triggered with or without market directional support at the time. Anything in the first five minutes will be considered WITHOUT market support because market direction cannot be determined that early. ETF calls do not require market support, and are thus either winners or losers.
From the report, QCOM triggered long (without market support) and worked great:
ANAC and NKTR gapped over, no plays.
From the Messenger/Tradesight_st Twitter Feed, Mark's TEVA triggered long (with market support) and worked:
COST triggered long (with market support) and didn't do enough either way to count:
