Chart Of The Day: Arcellx - Reimagining Cell Therapy

The Chart of the Day belongs to the immunotherapy company Arcellx (ACLX). I found the stock by using Barchart's powerful screening functions to find stocks with the highest technical buy signals, highest Weighted Alpha, superior current momentum and having a Trend Seeker buy signal then used the Flipchart  feature to review the charts for consistent price appreciation. Since the Trend Seeker signaled a buy on 11 / 3 the stock gained 29.71%.
