Global Payments - Barchart's Chart of the Day

Global Payments (GPN) is the Barchart Chart of the Day.  The electronic payment processing company has a Trend Spotter buy signal, a Weighted Alpha of 54.90+ and gained 46.10% in the last year.

The Chart of the Day is Global Payments (GPN).  I found the stock by sorting the All Time High List for new high frequency in the last month, then eliminated the stocks that weren't trading above their 20, 50 and 100 day moving averages.  Lastly I used the Flipchart feature to review the charts to find the one that I liked.  Since the Trend Spotter signaled a buy on 2/21 the stock gained 3.30%.
