The Chart of the Day belongs to the semiconductor company Broadcom (AVGO). 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 5/17 the stock gained 32.04%.
