Read today's promising find and trading idea for the stock market.

The Chart of the Day belongs to NexPoint Residential Trust (NXRT). I found the stock by using Barchart.com to find “Barchart New Highs” page and then I clicked on pull-down to select stocks with new 52-week highs. I then viewed the stocks on the list with the FlipCharts feature. NexPoint on Wednesday rallied sharply by +1.60% and posted a new record high. NexPoint was one of the few stocks to close higher on Wednesday with the stock market rout that produced a -3.3% sell-off in the S&P 500 index and a -4.4% sell-off in the Nasdaq 100 index. NexPoint is a small-cap stock with a market cap of about $700 million. Barchart’s proprietary TrendSpotter trading system has been long since Sep 27.
