Chart Of The Day: Nutanix - Cloud Software
The Chart of the Day belongs to the cloud software company Nutanix (NTNX). 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 1/ 8 the stock gained 19.25%.
