Macy's (M) was one of ten NYSE stocks showing up on the Shooting Star scan on the Predefined Scans page. After surging the prior three days, the stock hit resistance from broken support and formed a large shooting star on Wednesday.  Note the small body, the long upper shadow and the shaven bottom. The stock bounced on Thursday and it would take a move below today's low to confirm the shooting star.
