Well, well. I guess 11.2% and 12.8% two day gains were enough for TRIGR. Both Cano Petroleum and Graham Corp. were left off the Top 5 today. I’m going to interpret this as a "sell at the open" order from our mechanical trading friend.

It will be interesting to see how these two do today.

There are a couple newbies to check out this morning. First is Datascope (Nasdaq:DSCP). A brief scan of the headlines tells me the company has something to do with stents. That’s fine. I don’t really care what they do. Neither does TRIGR. But I have to say I love those Cypher stent ads. They make me want one, like an iPod or something.

Anyway. Datascope made a nice jump at the start of the month. It looks like TRIGR thinks it’s time for another move. It looks like the stock will open around $47 a share.

The second stock I’ll look at today is really intriguing. It’s a pharmaceutical stock — Acura Pharmaceuticals Nasdaq:ACUR). I’d have to check to be sure, but I don’t think TRIGRs ever pulled up a pharma stock. Again my cursory headline scan shows something about a pill and phase III trials.

The stock itself is down for the year, but has been trending higher. This doesn’t look like a trade I would have discovered and gotten excited about. But let’s see what TRIGR has for us. Acura looks like it should open around $9.50 today.
