After some weekend volatility in the cryptocurrency market, the stock market took a small spill on Monday. That said, let’s look at a few top stock trades — starting with the leading cryptocurrency out there.
Top Stock Trades for Tomorrow No. 1: Bitcoin (BTC-USD)

Bitcoin (CCC:BTC-USD) underwent some volatility over the weekend. The cryptocurrency rallied more than 16% in just a few days to hit new all-time highs near $65,000, then pulled back 20.5% at the recent low just four days later.
Down in five of the last six trading sessions — including the day it made new all-time highs — and Bitcoin is struggling here in the short term. While Bitcoin is giving us a wicked bounce from the lows, it’s still struggling.
Shares need to clear the 50-day moving average to regain more strength, but so far this prior support measure is acting as resistance. On a move back over $60,200, Bitcoin can move back to $65,000, then $67,600.
On the downside, though, the 10-week moving average and $50,350 level remain vulnerable unless Bitcoin can reclaim the 50-day moving average. Below both levels could put the $40,000 to $43,500 zone in play.
Top Stock Trades for Tomorrow No. 2: Peloton (PTON)

Peloton (NASDAQ:PTON) continues to have trouble gaining upside traction. That said, shares also continue to grind higher, riding an uptrend support measure (blue line) that rests between the 200-day and 50-week moving averages.
While catching a bit of a bounce off the lows, PTON stock still looks vulnerable here — below downtrend resistance and all of its daily moving averages.
A move over $120 would take most of the bearish heat off, while a close above $125 would reverse the narrative to bulls being in near-full control.
However, a break of $100 could put $92.50 in play. Below that, and I would consider PTON stock a no-touch until it can firm up and find support.
Top Stock Trades for Tomorrow No. 3: Harley-Davidson (HOG)

Harley-Davidson (NYSE:HOG) went for a ride on Monday morning, but shares ran out of gas a bit as HOG stock fell from its session highs.
In any regard — and cheesy puns aside — the stock is holding up nicely over $43 resistance. So long as that remains the case, bulls remain in control with the stock at new highs.
Back below $43, and I have less interest in the stock. If that’s the case, watch the 10-day moving average. Below could fill the gap from Monday, and below that, $40 should act as support.
Over Monday’s high of $46.44 could put the 161.8% extension in play at $49.44.
Top Trades for Tomorrow No. 4: Clean Energy (CLNE)

Clean Energy (NASDAQ:CLNE) went up 6% on the day, but is well off the session highs.
The stock was rejected by the 50-day moving average and downtrend resistance, but also looks set to close below the 21-day and 10-week moving averages. It’s not a particularly great showing, despite the lofty gains on the day.
In any regard, let’s look for a move over downtrend resistance. If we can get that, then maybe the 50-day moving average and Monday’s high are in play. That will put $15 and the 61.8% retracement near $16 on the table.
On the downside, however, a move below Monday’s low puts the 21-week moving average and $10.75 level in play. Below that, and $10.15 is possible.
Right here at current levels, and CLNE stock feels a bit like it’s in no man’s land. I want to see more confirmation, either in the form of higher prices above resistance or lower prices into support.
