Omnicell - Chart Of The Day

The Barchart Chart of the Day belongs to the medical information company Omnicell (Nasdaq: OMCL). I found the stock by using Barchart's powerful screening tools to find the stocks with the highest Weighted Alpha and technical buy signals. After I sorted for the most frequent number of new highs in the last month, I used the Flipchart feature to review the charts for consistent price appreciation. Since the Trend Spotter signaled a buy on 9/30 the stock gained 36.62%.
