The Barchart Chart of the Day belongs to the computer services company Scientific Games (Nasdaq: SGMS).   I found the stock by using Barchart's powerful screening tools to find the stocks with the highest Weighted Alpha and technical buy signals. That resulted in a watch list of 54 stocks. After I sorted for the most frequent number of new highs in the last month, I used the Flipchart feature to review the charts for consistent prices appreciation. Since the Trend Spotter signaled a buy on 4/23 the stock gained 51.25%.
