High-Pay Stocks For Busy People

Last week was a great week in the FOREX market, but I like to reach across all markets so this week I'm looking at a few stocks that show some good potential to move. To be honest I'm not really into day trading stocks because for some reason the stock market actually believes in fundamental analysis. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying the analysis of opinions and events isn't worth a damn, I'm just saying I prefer to trade markets where their effects aren't so dramatic.
To start this thing off I want to bring attention to a previous employer of mine which took a 26 year vacation from the public trading floors only to return with a vengeance, Citizens Financial Group (CFG) went public last week and they did so in style!! Although there isn't much technical analysis to do on this instrument its charts still tell a good story and show signs of healthy growth in its future. Below is a 5min chart which shows us the Royal Bank Of Scotland (RBS) owned Retail bank took off from its Initial Public Offering (IPO) price ($21.50) and has't turned back since. I'm looking to get into this value priced stock before the price becomes too pricey!
Next up we have Alibaba (BABA) which has surprised US investors by taking a turn to the downside after a decent IPO. The Price has been suppressed and congested since its heavy decline the day after its IPO. But to be fair the stock is showing some interesting behavior on its 15min chart which has just now become useful because of the instruments infancy. From the chart we can see an obvious wedge which favors the upside, only because the recent lows have been getting higher and highs are testing intra-day resistance levels. A break above the upper boundaries sends us to test its opening price and in case of a break below lower boundaries we will see a test of the all-time low at $86.62.
Now I've talked about MCIG before when I wrote about which Weed Stocks were worth looking into. We see from the daily chart of this company's stock that it has suffered from some serious distribution which has taken its price below its long standing support of .2604. We now see the stock attempting to rebound but it looks like this is only a play towards the old support which will most likely be turned to resistance. I would buy this pair until a true floor has been designed on a daily chart. For now a sell from the aforementioned resistance will do.
Now not too long ago someone on StockTwits (@joekidd) called me out on my Citigroup (C) prediction. I saw a short opportunity and this guy didn't think it could be true but today I want everyone to observe a false breakout which is one of my favorite events to take place because I usually walk away with such easy money. This stock has done a typical run up out of its range only to collapse back down into it and then move towards its bottom end nearly touching my profit target at $51.10. If you want to play the game the right way, buy at the bottom of this range...trust the lord of trading. Don't be like the kid joe.
AMAG has completely disrespected my initial set-up so now I say, buy it. The 60min chart shows us that this stock clearly has some supporters and they wanted the price completely out of its range and today it gaped up over $3 higher than its close on Friday $23.08. Jump in at the previous high $24.87 which should turn to support.
So if you're looking for some stock you can earn from without having to babysit your account all day than I would consider all of these stocks. They aren't too expensive and the offer enough volatility to make money quickly but not too much volatility that its impossible to set and forget which is always the goal.

Buy Weed

In the wake of Colorado and Washington legalizing Marijuana for recreational use you're out-dated and crazy if you think there's no money or future for the Cannabis Industry. You're also crazy to ignore Peyton Manning telling us he's benefited from legal Pot Business and an Alaskan News reporter quitting on air with a hint at her conversion to the Weed business. To show you all what I mean when I say this blog is the New Generation of Finance I'm going to write a short report on 3 cannabis stocks that could work for any investor and their strategy. Whether you're a day trader, swing trader, or equity investor these stocks will work for you.
Consistency- If you're looking for a consistent stock that could earn you a healthy profit I would look towards a business with a product, service, and outlet for their business. MedBox (MDBX) is a great example of this kind of company because they make automated dispensing solutions for medications, including marijuana. So if it makes you feel any better their sole business is not cannabis alone. They also have the largest capitalization of all cannabis linked stocks with a $1.2 billion capitalization and does not file with the SEC. Below is a chart which shows a cycle of slow slow sell offs lasting months with the strongest support of any instrument I've ever seen and it looks as if this is what happens year after year.

Volatility- If you're interested in some action on a weekly basis I would look towards GW Pharma (GWPRF), one of the few cannabis stocks that trades on a major exchange (Nasdaq). This company is based in the UK and is biotech. They develop cannabinoid medications primarily for multiple sclerosis and cancer. They too have one of the largest market caps at $930 million. The daily chart below shows me this stock has been supported and respected in the markets. Since its IPO it has not turned around and has only elevated.
At closer examination on the 60 min chart below we clearly see the fun part of this story. The pair creates predictable and trade-able GAPS!! This might seem scary but you must look at the bigger picture. An uptrend since inception.
Value- Our value cannabis stock of the day is a company by the name of mCig (MCIG). They create an interesting product which is a $10 mini-vaporizer for dry Cannabis or Cannabis Wax. The best part about this company is that they didn't release their first generation of products until October of this year and from the daily chart below we clearly see how the markets have responded. In my opinion this stock is an excellent value. The company is just getting started, has a good product that it actually sells, its stock price exploded but is giving investors an opportunity to jump in where we see the price come back to its long term resistance level that seems to be acting as support. From these levels you're looking at growth that could be passed down to the generation Y's in your family.

Denver

So I just recently flew to denver from  Las Vegas. The first thing I must say is that my plane ride was awesome. It never occurred to me that I'd see some spectacular landscapes until I was leaving the dessert of sandy cliffs and cannons and passing over beautiful mountains and hills dusted in snow. When I arrived at the Denver International airport I could see that it is its own city and after my fiasco at the McHarron airport I wasn't interested in getting lost. Plus I was anxious to see this conspirators wet dream of a mural near the baggage claim area. 
The city of Denver is nice but it's spread out like most of the major cities towards the west-side of the country. The skyline is shadowed by a beautiful mountain skyline that the sun sets behind. So like any good visitor I bought some legal weed, had it delivered and smoked it from the balcony of my hotel. I like Denver
