After a sharp shakeout in recent weeks, protective gear maker APT put in a strong session on Friday.

On the 30-miute chart, below, note the coiling price action.

A move over $3.40 should see momentum trader pile back in for at least a quick pop, if not more.

Which stocks are at the top of your watchlists this morning?

For you night owls out there, feel free to drop me any market/trading-related topics you would like me to cover in a weekend video.

In addition, anything else about the current market, feel free to drop below.

Speak your mind, night owls.

With beaten-down miners getting a sting bounce late-last week, perhaps the heavily-shorted laggard Westport Innovations in the clean energy space will follow suit this week.

On the daily chart, below, you can see the potential base bottom. A move over $6.30 likely sets the squeeze in motion for a potential 50-day moving average test. I would not be too aggressive in anticipating the breakout, though, as we are still dealing with damaged goods here, meaning a chart in a clear downtrend.

Drop me your top tickers overnight.

Here is an interesting and educational interview with the legendary, and quotable, Ed Seykota.

With the Supreme Court to hear the Obamacare subsides case, WLP UNH are getting hit hard today.

I view both as potential shorts here, especially given their prior run-ups.

In addition to the good news likely being baked in for now, the market must now wrestle with the indecision/known unknowns arising from the prospective SCOTUS ruling.

I view others in the space as shorts, too.

What are your top final hour trades?

The coal miners, as well as the precious metals’ and global materials like CLF, are sustaining bounces for the first time in a good long while from extremely beaten-down conditions.

The Banjo Boys from down south, as well as Agent Starling’s one-generation-removed-from-po’-white-trash-in-West-Virginia, have been the butt of many a joke in recent years for failing to put in any type of good low.

But, into year-end, recent shorts may find that the joke is on them. Note that many of these miners are very heavily-shorted, which is great on the ride down but can also lead to vicious, snapback rallies.

I am starting out with some light positions in the coals and other miners. However, if the bounces hold into next week I will consider building positions.
