The Barchart Chart of the Day belongs to the gold mining company New Gold (NYSEMKT: NGD).  I found the stock by using Barchart's powerful screening tools to find the stocks with the highest technical buy signals and Weighted Alpha, then sorted that list by the most frequent number of new highs in the last month.  Finally, I used the Flipchart feature o review the charts for consistent price appreciation.  Since the Trend Spotter signaled a buy on 8/17 the stock gained 7.49%.
