Average Volume: 219,192

Volume % Change: 425%

From a technical perspective, SPB is bouncing higher here right above some near-term support at $54 with above-average volume. This stock recently found buying interest right off its 50-day moving average of $52.61 and it's now quickly moving within range of triggering a major breakout trade. That trade will hit if SPB manages to take out some near-term overhead resistance levels at $55.57 to $55.82 with high volume.

Traders should now look for long-biased trades in SPB as long as it's trending above $54 to $53, and then once it sustains a move or close above those breakout levels with volume that hits near or above 219,192 shares. If that breakout triggers soon, then SPB will set up to enter new 52-week high territory above $56.08, which is bullish technical price action. Some possible upside targets off that breakout are $60 to $62.

From a technical perspective, DDD is bouncing higher here right above its 200-day moving average of $29.53 with decent upside volume. This stock has been downtrending badly for the last two months, with shares falling from its high of $47.99 to its recent low of $27.88. During that move, shares of DDD have been mostly making lower highs and lower lows, which is bearish technical price action. That said, DDD has now started to bounce off its 200-day and it's quickly moving within range of triggering a near-term breakout trade. That trade will hit if DDD manages to take out some near-term overhead resistance levels at $33 to $34.41 with high volume.

Traders should now look for long-biased trades in DDD as long as it's trending above today's low of $30.61 or above its 200-day at $29.53, and then once it sustains a move or close above those breakout levels with volume that hits near or above 5.12 million shares. If that breakout hits soon, then DDD will set up to re-test or possibly take out its next major overhead resistance levels at $37.85 to its 50-day at $38.25. Any high-volume move above its 50-day will then give DDD a chance to run above $40.
