Another under-$10 stock that looks ready to trigger a big breakout trade is China Ming Yang Wind Power Group (MY), a wind turbine manufacturer in China. This stock has been very hot over the last six months, with shares up sharply by 52%.
If you take a look at the chart for China Ming Yang Wind Power Group, you'll notice that this stock has been uptrending over the last few weeks, with shares moving higher from its low of $1.91 to its intraday high of $2.59 a share. During that uptrend, shares of MY have been consistently making higher lows and higher highs, which is bullish technical price action. That move has now pushed shares of MY within range of triggering a big breakout trade.
Market players should now look for long-biased trades in MY if it manages to break out above some past overhead resistance levels at $2.58 to $2.80 a share high volume. Look for a sustained move or close above those levels with volume that hits near or above its three-month average action of 1.56 million shares. If that breakout hits soon, then MY will set up to re-test or possibly take out its next major overhead resistance levels at $3.35 to its 52-week high at $3.52 a share. Any high-volume move above those levels will then give MY a chance to tag $4 a share.
Traders can look to buy MY off weakness to anticipate that breakout and simply use a stop that sits right below its 50-day moving average of $2.30 a share, or near more support at $2.02 a share. One can also buy MY off strength once it starts to clear those breakout levels with volume and then simply use a stop that sits a comfortable percentage from your entry point.

Icahn's other new position is Seventy Seven Energy (NYSE: SSE ) , which was spun off from Chesapeake Energy (NYSE: CHK ) on June 30 of this year. For every 14 shares an investor owned of Chesapeake, the stockholder received one share of Seventy Seven Energy. As Icahn holds a 9% stake in Chesapeake Energy, he also holds a 9% stake in Seventy Seven Energy, though the latter's smaller size means it is only a 0.1% position in Icahn's portfolio. Seventy Seven Energy was Chesapeake's energy services segment, and Chesapeake still makes up 80% of the company's revenue. Given $1.5 billion in debt and a drop in oil prices that threatens to slow Chesapeake's drilling, Seventy Seven Energy stock has dropped 75% from its spinoff price.
