What a rally we got yesterday and whether or not it continues for us today willl all depend on the employment report that comes out at 8:30am EST. I’m 100% cash right now and plan on staying that way at least until after the first hour of trading is complete and the employment number has started to sink in. There was a part of me that so badly wanted to get in a few positions at the close yesterday to try and benefit off of the action that ensues once the report is released, but doing so would be more on rolling the dice rather than on technical analysis. So I’m holding off right now.
We got similar action from the Asian markets last night, with rallies ranging between 0.7% and 1.6%, while the European markets traded flat on the day. US Futures are exhibiting a slight positive bias as 11 points, 3 points, and 1.25 points for the Dow, NASDAQ and S&P respectively. Besides the all-important employment number coming out this morning, we also have Consumer Credit at 3pm, but don’t expect that report to play any kind of role in the market today.

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.
Emotional trading will destroy one’s portfolio. Aiming to hit home runs with every trade is a sure sign that the trader is overly emotional and only cares about fast money. In this podcast episode Ryan explains how chasing after stocks like MicroStrategy (MSTR) without a plan for managing the risk can ultimately ruin a trader’s attempt at being a successful swing-trader.
