Chart Of The Day - Global Payments (GPN)

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%.

Global Payments Inc. provides electronic payments transaction processing services worldwide. The company serves as the processing intermediary between the merchant, the credit and debit networks, and the financial institutions that issue cards.
