Even if a stock is a couple days old, bust open 5 minute chart and you'll have a perspective on the trading that otherwise you wouldn't have.
In mid September SPKL's chart started to give hints of a breakout. During the breakout you could have used the charts to negotiate flipping or to just confirm the strength and tell you to hold. At this point you have more than enough data to give you a very descriptive picture of the current situation. I could go much deeper than this, but I'll tell you from a lot of experience TA always can benefit you. Even if it's a stock that has virtually no volme, TA tells you that. It's always telling you something. If you don't want to believe me, that's your choice.
I trade for a living but without chart TA, I would just be a (broke) gambler.
