• Always Assume You Will Lose On Your Trades: 3 Ways You Can Keep The Losses to Minimum

    I assume the worst from my trades, that they will always be unprofitable For most of you that is probably the most asinine statement you’ve ever heard a trader make when it comes to managing trading losses. But it is true! I don’t look at my next trade as one that I will make a

  • Swing Trading Strategy Report #1

    I thought I’d shake things up a bit, and redesign the daily trading plan. Honestly, I became a bit bored by how I was doing it before. And if I’m getting bored with it, you probably are to. So lets fix that with what I’ve put together to replace it: The Swing Trading Strategy Report.

  • I Reduced My Long Exposure Some Yesterday

    Yesterday’s rally didn’t quite seem there was a great deal of conviction behind it. Perhaps with the Fed set to release its FOMC Statement today, we’ll get the market to provide us with a decent size move. Over the past four trading sessions, the market has been rather quiet.

  • The Pullback That Never Was

    3 days of selling of less than one point per day That is what SPX has averaged over the course of the last three days when it finished lower each day - less than one measily point. For the bears that has to be infuriating.  I don't blame them - I would be too, if

  • The End of a Long Streak for the Nasdaq

    I'm not a big fan of streaks when it comes to stocks I mean it is nice while it lasts, but like any financial instrument that is rallying, eventually there needs to be a pullback and on Friday you got one with a whopping 0.04% pullback on the Nasdaq.  How amazing, right?  That is the

  • Consolidation Here Not a Bad Idea

    When the Nasdaq is up 10 straight days – a little consolidation never hurt anyone.  While it is much more common to see the Nasdaq have these kinds of runs than the S&P 500, it still needs to cool off here. What’s amazing about the run is that it comes right after the Nasdaq

  • Short-Term Support Held and Dip Buying Still in Effect

    Support holding strong, dip-buyers still flying in at any moment of weakness. Yesterday was a sound day for the bulls from a technical standpoint. For one, the S&P 500, by a large margin, saw a huge uptick in volume from the day before. Which is good, because I kind of thought the market was dying

  • Light, Low, Nonexistent Volume

    What was that yesterday? Where was the volume? That had to be one of the least interesting trading days in my entire trading career. I mean, it was horrible, miserable – and outright boring.

  • New All Time Highs for the Stock Market – What Matters Now?

    All time highs without a worry in this world.  It really is impressive how the market will rebound every time from even the smallest of sell-offs to hit new all-time highs, time and time again. There is a lot of risk out there – tons of it. Despite all the horrible headlines that could readily
