5 Bottoming Stocks Starting to Signal a Buy

BALTIMORE (Stockpickr) -- Mr. Market is starting to consolidate this morning, correcting after rallying hard for all but a handful of days in 2013.

While it may not seem like it at first glance, a measured pullback is hugely constructive for a longer-term stock rally. It gives investors a chance to catch their breath after such a big move this month before giving it another go. More important, it gives investors a nicer entry point for piling onto their equity positions; after all, you can't "buy the dips" in a market where there aren't any dips.

Not all stocks have been participating in January's equity rally, and in most cases that's been a red flag worth heeding. But in a select few names, signs of bottoming price action point to stocks that could be making up for lost time in February. Today, we'll take a technical look at five of them.

So, without further ado, let's take a look at five technical setups worth trading now.
