Big day for the market today – breaking above the 1648 level was key. Now they just need to hold it until the close.
If 1648 and more so, the 20-day moving average, breaks then this market will be in the same condition as it was for the past month.
With that said, I’ve added more exposure to the long side today with two new picks, while closing out Kohl’s (KSS) at a small profit (+0.6%).
Today’s lazy trades are worth consideration depending on your bias in this market.. No chance I’ll take the short position as the market doesn’t call for it but I’m sure there are some out there who are willing to do so.
With the long position Cree Inc. (CREE), it is unfortunate that we missed the initial breakout, but it can be just as great of an opportunity if we can get a pullback to $64 or so.
So wait for it….
Here’s today’s lazy swing trades…
Long: Cree Inc. (CREE)
Short: SolarCity (SCTY)
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.
Trading what you see and not what you think is one of Ryan's popular trading expressions that he has lived by in his 30 years of trading experience. In this podcast episode Ryan explains why it is so important to not think your way through the market but to be a trader who sees what to trade and reacts accordingly. If you are struggling as a trader, it may very well be that you aren't seeing but thinking your way through your swing trades.
