Make it Happen!

Good morning folks, 
Being a Friday before a long holiday weekend we could see another strong day in the markets as shorts cover into the weekend. I hope some of you had CYBR or FEYE. I have been pounding the table on both of them for the last couple of weeks. CYBR was in last weekends stocks to watch video and I highlighted both companies on the First Ticker TV trail run. I plan on doing another live stream this weekend to go over my take on the markets and stocks to watch for next week. Make sure you follow me here so you can be alerted when I go live http://ticker.tv/vegastrader66. I prefer to do it early in the morning and I am thinking Sunday after church around 8 or 9 Vegas time.

Markets are making all time highs and oil is also rising this morning breaking a key level of resistance.  

Stocks on my Radar
CYTK earnings beat and gapper wait for setup, MTSN earnings beat 4 dollar roll, TASR nice daily looks like it wants to take out 52 week highs,MOBI thin possible base breakout over the 50 day, NBS insider buying needs to crack 3.80 with volume, KING earnings beat big gapper don't chase it, SIRI thick stock looks like it wants the 4 dolla holla more of a swing and a bit extended on the daily, YHOO bounce off 200 day support, RPTP active premarket may want to test 10, HALO hot daily, MTL looking for it to take out the 200 day with conviction, FRO decent daily looks primed,  

Small oils, Biofuel and Solar plays could continue as long as oil continues to rise
