Microsoft (MSFT) and Amazon (AMZN) brings tidings of great joy this morning for bulls after announcing solid and above expectations earnings reports. Each are trading over 10% in the pre-market with Amazon staring down at gains of over 17%. For the tech companies, this has not been a disappointing earnings season at all.
In the early going, both the Dow and NASDAQ are each up 13 points while the S&P is up 3, which is surprising, with the solid earnings reports from AMZN and MSFT, I thought that we might be staring at gains of 40 points or more in the NASDAQ, which makes me believe that there should be a lot more upside potential in this market still today.
Overnight Asian markets were up about 1.25% overall while the European markets are full throttle with gains of 1.5% so far. We had Uncle Benny speaking earlier this morning with little impact, while there is still a Existing Home Sales report due out at 10am EST.

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.
