Loxo Oncology - Chart of the Day

Loxo Oncology (LOXO) is the Barchart Chart of the Day.  The pharmaceutical preparations company has a Trend Spotter buy signal, a Weighted Alpha of 73.47+ and gained 54.12% in the last year.

The Chart of the Day belongs to Loxo Oncology (LOXO).  I found the pharmaceutical preparations stock by using Barchart to sort the Russell 3000 Index stocks first by technical buy signals, then again my Weighted Alpha.  I then used the Flipchart feature to review the charts.   Since the Trend Spotter signaled a buy on 9/2 the stock gained 7.72%.

Loxo Oncology, Inc. is a biopharmaceutical company. It develops targeted small molecule therapeutics for the treatment of cancer in genetically defined patient populations. Loxo Oncology, Inc. is headquartered in Stamford, Connecticut.
