EMCOR – Outpacing Its Peers | Forex trading, free forex education

Emcor branch along Cabaguio Avenue in Davao, Philippines — yullz

The Chart of the Day belongs to the electrical contractor EMCOR Group (EME). I found the stock by sorting the Russell 3000 Index stocks, first by the most frequent number of new highs in the last month and having a Trend Spotter buy signal, then used the Flipchart feature to review the charts for consistent price appreciation. Since the Trend Seeker first signaled a buy on 10/11, the stock gained 26.34%.
