The Chart of the Day belongs to lab equipment company Kewaunee Scientific (KEQU). 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 3 /4 the stock gained 26.97%.
