On Oct 23, Mike added Cree Inc. (CREE) to his model portfolio, noting that after dismal earnings it had fufilled its downside potential off its April 2013-April 2014 top formation. Moreover, the intermediate-term RSI momentum gauge, in addition to the minor rally off the Oct 22 loww at 27.20, pointed to a recovery phase.
CREE was trading at 28.80 at the time, and, as it surged through the top of its channel and appeared short-term overbought, was exited at 32.30 on Oct 28 for a 12% gain. The stock closed the week at 31.48.

Back on July 17, with ARKK trading at 44.22, Mike Paulenoff commented:
ARKK (Cathie Wood ARK Innovation Fund) ... my attached 4 Hour Chart shows the price structure has carved out a May-July Rounded Bottom formation that is putting upward pressure on a key resistance zone from 46.70 to 48.12, and if hurdled, will trigger upside projections to 58-60...
Since then ARKK in fact climbed to a new 7-week recovery high at 49.
