The Chart of the Day belongs to Clayton Williams Energy (Nasdaq: CWEI). I found the independent petroleum exploration stock by using Barchart to sort the Russell 3000 Index stocks first for the highest Weighted Alpha, then again or technical buy signals of 80% or more. Since the Trend Spotter signaled a buy on 11/1 the stock gained 8.06%.
