The Chart of the Day belongs to AK Steel (NYSE:AKS). I found the steel producer by using Barchart to sort Russell 3000 Index stocks first by the highest Weighted Alpha then again by technical buy signals of 80% or more. Sine the Trend Spotter signaled a buy on 9/28 the stock gained 35.10%.

AK Steel produces flat-rolled carbon, stainless and electrical steel products, as well as carbon and stainless tubular steel products, for automotive, appliance, construction and manufacturing markets. AK Steel maintains a relentless pursuit of improvement in every critical performance measure. The result is a track record without equal.
