The Chart of the Day belongs to Essent Group (ESNT).  I found the private mortgage insurance stock by using Barchart to sort today's All Time High list first for the highest Weighted Alpha, then again for technical buy signals of 80% or more.  Since the Trend Spotter signaled a buy in 1/20 the stock gained 4.36%.
