I found today’s Chart of the Day by using Barchart’s powerful screening functions to sort for stocks with the highest technical buy signals; superior current momentum in both strength and direction; and a Trend Seeker “buy” signal. I then used Barchart’s Flipcharts feature to review the charts for consistent price appreciation. HYMC checks those boxes. Since the Trend Seeker issued a new “Buy” on Oct. 28, shares are up 562.92%.
