Rambus (RMBS) - Thursday’s rally was one of the strongest of the year. This strength is confirmed by price movement as well as two momentum indicators. MACD and KD show buy signal as MACD is above signal line and K line is on top of D line. The stock has held support at the $15.76 ( 20-day moving average ) level and is displaying a screaming buy divergence on the upside.

Ciena (CIEN) - Momentum has been rising since the August low’s and has reflected a strong divergence buy setup. The stock is now testing the 20-day moving average and I think offers a good perspective into the overall sentiment. If a breakout occurs, look for upside price targets in the previous $21 area.

Super Micro Computer (SMCI) - The stock is in overbought condition from a technical standpoint and the chance of trend reversal appears high. Consider shorting Super Micro Computer shares keeping the stop loss at day’s high level. This strategy is only for those who are willing to take risk, as the stock could move up quite sharply at a fast pace.
