Chart of the Day: Green Brick - Residential Construction

The Chart of the Day belongs to the residential construction company Green Bricks Partners (GRBK). I found the stock by using Barchart's powerful screening functions to find stocks with the highest technical buy signals, highest Weighted Alpha, superior current momentum and having a Trend Seeker buy signal then used the Flipchart feature to review the charts for consistent price appreciation. Since the Trend Seeker signaled a buy on 1 /4 the stock gained 15.44%.
