The Chart of the Day belongs to Merit Medical Systems (MMSI). I found the medical devices stock by using Barchart to sort today's All Time High list first for the most frequent number of new highs in the last month, then again for technical buy signals of 80% or better. Since the Trend Spotter signaled a buy on 2/8 the stock gained 13.65%.
