One new trade to report today and that is in Gafisa (GFA) – a stock that I’m pretty sure I’ve never traded in before, but is coiling nicely near the highs of its current price action.
I didn’t wait for the breakout on this trade before entering, primarily because the risk/reward was so favorable at the current price, and there was significant support for the stock above the 20-day moving average.
As a result I added GFA to the portfolio as a swing-trade at $4.48.
Today’s short setup comes from ISIS Pharmaceuticals (ISIS) which may seem surprising because of the incredible uptrend it has been on of late, but what you have is a perfect double-top pattern, followed by its confirmation and subsequent bear-flag. Once it can break the uptrend it is on, it should drop hard and fast.
Here’s today’s Lazy Trades.
LONG: Gafisa (GFA)
SHORT: ISIS Pharmaceuticals (ISIS)
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.
