10 rules of day trading that I am living by (for now)…

Here are some current rules that I am working on for a successful living day trading.  I am feeling very confident about my initial stop order, which is really just based many times on the classic 1-2-3 breakout, but sometimes not.  I'm interested in a breakout of the high or [...]

MRVL breakout of the daily low after 10 AM

2011-10-26T11:18:49-04:00October 26, 2011|

This is a textbook trade using my strategy of the breakouts that happen between 10 am and 10:30 almost everyday.  By the way, many times you will see similar breakouts around the 1-2 pm range.  Don't fall asleep!  A boring market will wake up in a heartbeat.  Have your stop [...]

Day trade breakout of GMCR

2011-10-25T22:51:07-04:00October 25, 2011|

This was a great low of day breakout on the short side of GMCR.  I don't trade anything until after 10 am, and this trade was good until end of day.  No real move back up to stop you out.  Great move!!!
