The Barchart Chart of the Day belongs to BioLife Solutions (BLFS) a stock I featured twice before in the last year. It was first featured on 8/3/17 when it was trading at $3.88 — right now its at $21.78. I found the medical products stock by using Barchart to sort today's Top Stocks to Own list first by the highest Weighted Alpha then I used the Flipchart feature to review the charts for consistent price appreciation. Since the Trend Spotter signaled a buy on 6/22 the stock gained 72.01%.
