Chruchill Downs - Barchar's Chart of the Day

Churchill Downs (CHDN) is the Barchart Chart of the Day.  The gaming company has a Trend Spotter buy signal, a Weighted Alpha of 38.37+, gained 27.51% in the last year and paid a .97% dividend.

The Chart of the Day belongs to Churchill Downs (CHDN).  I found the stock by sorting the All Time High list for the stocks with the highest technical buy signal, then used the Flipchart feature to review the charts. Since the Trend Spotter signaled a buy on 1/16 the stock gained 19.60%.

Churchill Downs Inc. is a racing company that primarily conducts pari-mutuel wagering on live Thoroughbred, Standardbred and Quarter Horse horse racing and simulcast signals of races. Additionally, the company offers racing services through our other business interests.
