Caseys General Stores - Chart Of The Day

The Chart of the Day belongs to Caseys General Stores (NASDAQ: CASY).. I found the retail convenience store stock by using Barchart to sort the Russell 3000 Index stocks first for the highest number of new highs in the last month, then again for technical buy signals of 80% or better. I then use the Flipchart feature to review the charts. Since the Trend Spotter signaled a buy on 10/21 the stock gained 18.32%.
