My Swing Trading Approach
Currently, I am 100% cash and will stay that way, until there is a definable edge in this market.
Indicators
- VIX – Big pop in the VIX yesterday sent the indicator to 23.34. Watch to see whether it breaks the highs from March.
- T2108 (% of stocks trading below their 40-day moving average): A massive decline yesterday of 30%, sending the indicator down to 33%. Still no where near the reading from February, when it dipped into single digits .
- Moving averages (SPX): 100-day moving average was clearly broken, the next destination appears to be the 200-day MA. Previous test, saw a very hard and aggressive bounce.

Industries to Watch Today
Utilities were the only sector to finish in positive territory. Its chart though is not one that I would consider bullish though. Technology finally broke down yesterday. All other sectors are rolling over. 
My Market Sentiment
Double top pattern formed in February and March confirmed and a lower-low confirmed as well. Very bearish chart for the market at this juncture.

Welcome to Swing Trading the Stock Market Podcast!
I want you to become a better trader, and you know what? You absolutely can!
Commit these three rules to memory and to your trading:
#1: Manage the RISK ALWAYS!
#2: Keep the Losses Small
#3: Do #1 & #2 and the profits will take care of themselves.
That’s right, successful swing-trading is about managing the risk, and with Swing Trading the Stock Market podcast, I encourage you to email me (ryan@shareplanner.com) your questions, and there’s a good chance I’ll make a future podcast out of your stock market related question.
The percentage amount for your stop-losses and where to put them at when trading the stock market can be very difficult to determine. In this podcast episode, Ryan talks about times when it works using tight stop-losses versus very wide stop-losses and the tricks that you can use to narrow the stop-loss even further.
