The Chart of the Day belongs to Alliant Energy (NYSE:LNT). I found the stock by sorting the All Time High list for the stocks with the most frequent new highs in the last month then used the Flipchart feature to review the charts. Since the Trend Spotter signaled a buy on 12/18 the stock gained 2.72%.
