Wednesday’s Trading Strategy
Buy BVN at 36.91 with a target price of 40.86 and an initial trailing stop of 32.96. If the stock moves higher but has not reached the target price, the stop loss should be raised beneath the highest closing price.

Is this a Magic Formula stock?
BVN is not. QCOR has been in the past, although it doesn’t seem to be right now.
