Harry Boxer, author of The Technical Trader, provides some of his favorite picks in the biotech and solar sector and fills you in on why he's so excited about them.
SPEAKER 1: I’m talking trends with Harry Boxer. Hi, Harry, and thanks for being here.
HARRY: My pleasure.
SPEAKER 1: So what do you see these days? We talked a little bit about 3-D printing. I mean that’s amazing today.
HARRY: It is. More than 10 years, I visited 3-D systems and saw a demo, and it was like whoa. They weren’t even public then. Of late, SSYS (Stratasys), Proto Labs (PRLB), EX1; those are the four big ones in the industry. There is a little buy-out tech company called Orvganovo (ONVO) that is now bio-printing organs for testing.
SPEAKER 1: That’s amazing.
HARRY: That could be something, I think that down the road could be quite interesting. That stock when I first bought it, it recommended to my scrubbers it went from 4.25 to 8.5. It doubled in two weeks.

Advisors' Opinion:- [By Paul Ausick]
But what does this resurrection mean for investors? With a couple of exceptions, solar stocks hit a peak in 2008. First Solar Inc. (NASDAQ: FSLR) topped $300 a share briefly, SunPower Corp. (NASDAQ: SPWR) topped $125 a share, JA Solar hit $120, Canadian Solar Inc. (NASDAQ: CSIQ) topped $40 and Trina Solar Ltd. (NYSE: TSL) reached its peak of more than $35 in mid-2007. At today’s prices one almost has to wonder if we are talking about the same companies. The only stock trading anywhere near its peak price of six years ago is Canadian Solar. JinkoSolar is near its all-time high again, but it was not publicly traded until mid-2010.

One under-$10 name that's starting to move within range of triggering a big breakout trade is ReneSola (SOL), a manufacturer of solar wafers and producer of solar power products based in China. This stock has been on fire so far in 2013, with shares up sharply by 183%.
If you take a look at the chart for ReneSola, you'll notice that this stock has been uptrending very strong for the last four months and change, with shares soaring higher from its low of $1.25 to its recent high of $4.85 a share. During that uptrend, shares of SOL have been consistently making higher lows and higher highs, which is bullish technical price action. Shares of SOL have pulled back a bit during the last few weeks, with the stock coming off that high of $4.85 to its recent low of $3.52 a share. This stock has now started to bounce off that $3.52 low and it's quickly moving within range of triggering a big breakout trade.
Traders should now look for long-biased trades in SOL if it manages to break out above some near-term overhead resistance levels at $4.25 to $4.50 a share and then once it clears its 52-week high at $4.85 a share with high volume. Look for a sustained move or close above those levels with volume that hits near or above its three-month average action of 2.09 million shares. If that breakout triggers soon, then SOL will set up to enter new 52-week-high territory, which is bullish technical price action. Some possible upside targets off that breakout are $7 to $8 a share.
Traders can look to buy SOL off any weakness to anticipate that breakout and simply use a stop that sits right below its 50-day moving average of $3.31 a share. One can also buy SOL off strength once it takes out those breakout levels with volume and then simply use a stop that sits a comfortable percentage from your entry point.
