My Observations and What to Expect:
- Futures are down slightly, once again.
- Upside momentum seems to come and go in spurts.
- Bulls are on the leg of the rally that will likely test the 1130 zone on the S&P, which can happen any day now.
- S&P tried to push below 200 yesterday. Bears failed which is a positive for the market.
- My best guess right now (and it isn’t always worth that much), that we rally into mid-terms and eventually challenge the April highs. Seems crazy to even think that is possible at this point.
- Morning gap is looks very fade-able at the moment.
Actions I Will Be Taking:
- Start focusing more on swing trades and less on scalping.
- Past couple of weeks yielded little from scalping, and my main forte is swing-trading and I want to spend a lot of time searching out new setups.
- Will continue to fade the open where the opportunity exists.
- May add another 2 or so positions to the portfolio. Enough to make me 40% long.

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.
When should you increase your position size for swing trading in the stock market? Does the percentage that we dedicate to each of our swing trades change over the years or is it etched in stone? In this podcast episode, Ryan goes over his reason for increasing his position size in trading and what can lead a person to doing that for themselves.
