Chart Of The Day - Snap-On Hits New High

The Chart of the Day is Snap-On (NYSE:SNA). I found the stock by sorting the All Time High list for the stocks with the best technical buy signals then used the Flipchart feature to review the charts. Since the Trend Spotter signaled a buy on 3/34 the stock gained 4.08%.
