The Chart of the Day belongs Williams-Sonoma (WSM).  I found the stock by sorting the All Time High list for the stocks hitting the most frequent new highs in the last month, then used the Flipchart feature to review the charts.  Since the Trend Spotter signaled a buy on 11/10 the stock gained 21.42%.
