The Chart of the Day belongs to Loxo Oncology (NASDAQ:LOXO). I found the stock by using Barchart to sort the Russell 3000 Index stocks first for a Weighted Alpha of 50.00+ or more, then for a 50 – 100 Day MACD Oscillator buy signal, then again for technical buy signals of 80% or better. Last I used the Flipchart feature to review the charts. Since the Trend Spotter signaled a buy on 10/15 the stock gained 21.99%.

Loxo Oncology, Inc. is a biopharmaceutical company. It develops targeted small molecule therapeutics for the treatment of cancer in genetically defined patient populations. Loxo Oncology, Inc. is headquartered in Stamford, Connecticut.
