I found the stock by using Barchart's screener to screen for any stock that has a technical buy signal of 80% or more and a Weighted Alpha of 50.00+. Today only 34 of the 4900 stocks in the database made the grade. I sorted the results by the most frequent number of new highs in the last month and used the Flipchart feature to review the charts for consistent price appreciation.
