Chart Of The Day: Spotify - Streaming Fan Favorite

The Chart of the Day belongs to the audio streaming services company Spotify Technologies (SPOT).  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/ 1 the stock gained 52.78%.
