Orion Group - Chart Of The Day

The Chart of the Day belongs to Orion Group (NYSE: ORN). I found the construction stock by using Barchart to sort the Russell 3000 Index stocks first for the most frequent number of new highs in the last month, then again for technical buy signals of 80% or more. Since the Trend Spotter signaled a buy on 9/7 the stock gained 13.93%.
