( click to enlarge )Himax Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:HIMX) staged a 100-day exponential moving average rebound on Friday on decent volume. Over the past 3 months, this exponential moving average has been served as a good catalyst to start a new bullish trend on pull backs, as shown on chart. Let's see if the strength continues on Monday and breaks above the next resistance area at approximately $9.32 EMA50, then we should see a further continuation.

( click to enlarge )Facebook Inc (NASDAQ:FB) continues to hold the 50-day exponential moving average now at 47.16. However, inability to break and close above the 50 barrier leaves corrective risks alive. A close above 50 is needed to set a small base for 52.09. On the other hand, any close below $47.16 would have major negative implications from a short-term perspective.

( click to enlarge )Arca Biopharma Inc (NASDAQ:ABIO) corrected Friday after a strong move on Thursday, and the stock managed to hold most of gains, finishing above the 50-day EMA. The things to focus on technical chart above is the huge spike in volume on Thursday. In my opinion and based on the AC/DT (accumulation/Distribution line) it could have marked the end of the slide. Based on the technicals, the stock continue to show short-term potential and I'm still with my bullish sentiment, but I could be wrong.
( click to enlarge )Zalicus Inc (NASDAQ:ZLCS) was one of the BIG winners on Friday, as the stock closed up $.50 on the day. The move pushed the stock above all the major moving averages and gave a pocket pivot buy signal. I expect to see another upside move, which is why I will watch it again next week. Key resistance stays at $5.
