April 28th Swing Watch List

$SZYM – A great flag setup under the 2.40 mark. This is primed for a breakout move back to 2.75 or so. Long over 2.40, stop 2.25.

$NCR –  A bearish move south after earnings. After a MASSIVE uptrend since February, this has been over due for a pull back. Looking for a short under 29.21, stop 30.00. Room here is down to 27.40 and then 27.
