My Swing Trading Approach Booked profits in Wayfair (W) for +6.4% profit. I added another long swing-trade to the portfolio on Friday, and will look to add more today as well. Indicators
My Swing Trading Approach I continue to book profits in trades along the way, where it makes sense. Yesterday, I closed out my trade in Twitter (TWTR) for a solid +4.7% profit following a candle and lack of breakout that was less than desirable. Nonetheless, I managed the profits and made a good trade out of it. I am
My Swing Trading Approach Coming in lighter than I was before with only 3 positions in the portfolio, after closing out Micron (MU) for a +7.8% profit and FedEx (FDX) for a +1.4% profit. I’ll be looking to add 1-2 new long positions today to the portfolio, assuming that market conditions will

My Swing Trading Approach I have more positions today to the long side, then I did, coming into yesterday. I need to see that this market is serious about holding on to today’s gains, and following through to the upside tomorrow. As a result, I may hold off adding any new positions today, and at
My Swing Trading Approach It remains to be seen whether the bulls are going to manage a “buy the dip” reaction to the morning’s pre-market gap down. Should that happen, I’ll likely add to the long exposure already in the portfolio. Should it not, reconsidering the short side comes into view yet again. Indicators
My Swing Trading Approach I am coming into today 100% cash, I closed my one short position yesterday for a profit. I am not totally sure where this market goes from here. We could see a bounce, but there is also little support underneath until 2801 on SPX is reached. I plan to watch
