Best Stock Charts to Watch for the Week of November 9

Monday morning is a lousy time to start building a watchlist. The market is moving, your inbox is filling up, and a stock that looked interesting on Friday may already be trading through the level you wanted.

I’d rather open the week with a short list and a plan for each chart. In this edition of Best Stock Charts, I walk through what I’m watching heading into the week of November 9.

Mark the level that would get your attention

Before the open, pick one area on each chart where you’d want to see a reaction. If you’re watching a pullback into support, decide what would tell you buyers are showing up. If you’re watching a stock approach resistance, decide whether you want to see it close above that area or come back and hold it on a retest.

A specific condition gives you something to set an alert for. That matters when you have a meeting at 10 and can’t keep a chart open all morning.

Check how much room the trade has

If a stock triggers near resistance, look at how much room there is to the next area where sellers might show up. Then compare that with the distance to the level where your setup would fail. If the upside is cramped or the stop would have to be wider than you’re comfortable with, you can wait for a better entry.

Decide what would take it off your list

Write one sentence for each chart: “If price does this, I’m done watching it for this setup.” A break of support or a failed attempt to hold a breakout can give you a reason to move on. You’ll have a clearer decision to make when an alert goes off.

Watch the review, then pick the one chart you’d want an alert on before Monday’s open. Drop the ticker and your level under the video.
