Updated 12/15 for Thursday's market.

BMY is a good long candidate as it breaks out of a symmetrical triangle pattern. These patterns are typically result in a move in the direction of the previous trend, but a break in either direction presents a good medium to long term opportunity. The breakout move comes on heavy volume for additional confirmation.
