2011-06-22T07:54:57-04:00June 22, 2011|

Here are some possible swing trades I am watching.  Swing trades, for me, are trades that can have a portfolio duration of as little as a week, to a much as a few months.  I enter the positions after 1.)  I have filtered ( screen ) based on fundamentals, 2.) [...]

I am already pretty long going into today open.  ( TNH, CALP, OME, CIM, ALB)  With the futures up and all the uncertainty still surrounding the Euro Zone ( Greek Debacle ) I look to lighten up this morning and maybe transfer some money into these names as day trades [...]

Against the Ropes….This weeks stocks to watch!

2011-06-12T22:25:41-04:00June 12, 2011|

This is my watch list going into the open tomorrow. ( 6/13/2011 )  Given the recent sell-off, many of the bears got the bulls against the ropes and are putting a beating on them.  truth be told, the tape looks extremely heavy and the consensus seems that its only going [...]

History Doesn’t Repeat, but it Does Rhyme.

2011-06-03T10:54:13-04:00June 3, 2011|

Quick Note*  I have been focusing my trading on smaller cap companies lately because they tend not to correlate with the broader market directly, and trade on their own fundamentals and technicals. In this small cap arena, another little nuance ( trade setup ) that I like to capitalize on, [...]
