Current Long Positions (stop-losses in parentheses): TICC (8.51), EUO – UltraShort Euro (22.25)
Current Short Positions (stop-losses in parentheses): SPY (108.68), DGX (47.10), FCN (35.01), URBN (33.94), OMI (27.76), HSY (48.02), ADBE (29.78)
BIAS: 63% Short
Economic Reports Due Out (Times are EST): MBA Purchase Applications (7am), Durable Goods Orders (8:30am), New Home Sales (10am), FHFA House Price Index (10am), EIA Petroleum Status Report (10:30am)
My Observations and What to Expect:
- Futures are slightly down.
- New Home Sales will have a significant impact on the market today. Especially after yesterdays Existing Home Sales report was so dismal.
- Durable Goods should also be closely watched.
- S&P broke and closed below critical 1056 support level on the S&P.
- Any near-term bounce in the S&P will likely struggle to go higher than 1100, and 1070 realistically.
- Support levels for bears to break on S&P is 1040 (Neckline of Head and Shoulders pattern), and 1010 (July lows).
Actions I Will Be Taking:
- No hedge position this morning.
- Won’t be looking to add any new swing trades to the portfolio today.
- Tightened stops in SPY, DGX, FCN, HSY, OMI, URBN
- Hedge if the market looks to bounce today.
- Another down day today, and I will look to book gains in exhausted short positions.
- Will only scalp in very obvious trade setups with high probabilities for success.
- Main focus will be swing-trading.

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.
In today's episode, Ryan talks what a dividend portfolio should look like, how much he allocates to his dividend investments and how he manages the risk on his dividend stocks & ETFs, as well as drilling down into the basics of dividend stocks.
