• 100% technical buy signals

• .94 - 60 month Beta

Motorola Solutions (MSI) was last featured on 6/18 when it closed at $382.82.

Author's Note:  After some positive comments and seeing how many of you viewed last Friday's post on Beta I am going to add the 60-month Beta to the Barchart Technical Indicators I highlight every day.

The Chart of the Day belongs to the communications equipment company Motorola Solutions (MSI). 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 7/29 the stock gained 4.55%.
