Monday Penny Stock Watchlist: 3 New Ascending Triangle Trades

This week, we’re turning to one of my favorite technical setups, the ascending triangle pattern, to eke out some potential gains in the market…
In case you’re not familiar, each week, the Penny Sleuth takes a look at a list of penny stocks that are exhibiting abnormal volume, strong technicals, upcoming news, or another catalyst that suggested they might be making a material move in the coming week.
As usual, while our Watchlist errs on the safe side of small-caps, using technical analysis to tell us where a stock is headed, we’ve opened the comments up to readers again this week, giving you the chance to offer up more speculative penny stock plays.
Check out the comments after this article to get a glimpse at a slew of new user-submitter penny stock picks – and the chance to submit your own!
Horizon Bancorp (NASDAQ: HBNC) – This regional banking stock is making an appearance on the watchlist for the third week in a row. That’s because this chart continues to pose an attractive setup for small-cap traders. Once shares break above $23, we’ll have reason to go long.
International Assets Holding Corporation (NASDAQ: IAAC) – IAAC is a small-cap financial services firm that’s also offering investors a potential ascending triangle breakout. The key level for this stock is $23 – don’t even think about buying shares until then.
Parametric Technology Corp (NASDAQ: PMTC) – Our sole non-triangle play this week is Parametric Technology Corp, a software development company. Shares of PMTC just underwent a bullish moving average crossover, and are seeing increased average volume. This stock could be primed for a bounce higher…
ePlus Inc. (NASDAQ: PLUS) – Another software firm on this week’s watchlist is ePlus. This ascending triangle trade triggers on a push above $19. As with all of the other stocks on this week’s list, increased market volatility and relatively low volumes can create losses – always place a stop on a purely technical trade.

Once again, we’re going interactive this week…
