STOCKS TO WATCH
Selection of stocks likely to move on an intraday basis within the Nasdaq 100 and/or Dow Jones Industrial Average.
Citigroup (C)
Our preference: as long as 4.22 is support, we are bullish. In this case, the upside breakout of 4.41 will trigger a bullish acceleration towards 4.52.

Alternative scenario: a downside breakout of 4.22 would open the way to 4.15.
Target (TGT)
Our preference: as long as 55.35 is a resistance, we are bearish with a target at 53.25.

Alternative scenario: a break above 55.35 would open the way to 56.16.
