These are this Wednesday morning’s top day trader and active trader stocks with price and volume moves.  More detailed price and volume analysis has been provided with a link to each stock story over at VSInvestor.com:

Citigroup (NYSE: C) is lower by less than 1% on what seemed like decent news.

Repros Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ: RPRX) is up over 100% on huge volume.

AirTran Holdings Inc. (NYSE: AAI) is down over 12% on a secondary offering announcement.

AVANIR Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ: AVNR) is up over 6% on a patent allowance to treat pseudobulbar affect, which the company says there are no treatments on the market yet.

Alcoa Inc. (NYSE: AA) was very active in stock options late yesterday ahead of today’s earnings report.  We’d look for a continuation of that today as traders take deleveraged bets after such a large run up in the stock.

Linn Energy LLC (NASDAQ: LINE) is getting hit on high pre-market and also after-hours yesterday after it reported it would sell 6 million units in a secondary offering.

Vical Incorporated (NASDAQ: VICL) is trading up on positive Phase II trial data against CMV disease.
