Univar (UNVR) is the Barchart Chart of the Day.  The chemical company has a Trend Spotter buy signal, a Weighted Alpha of 129.00+ and gained 121.76% in the last year.

The Chart of the Day belongs to Univar (UNVR).  I found the chemical 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 another buy on 1/11 the stock gained 2.97%.
