You know you are old when you can recite a 14 word tag line twenty years later. McDonald's (MCD) popped up on the radar today as the dining stocks have really ramped up lately. Could it be the ability to buy McCafe coffee for home or an improvement in same store sales? 

While McDonald's tested resistance today, it was the highest close since the gap down in July. Seasonality is also good for McDonald's in November and December.

You can see that chart here. McDonald's Seasonality. 

Good trading,
