• My Swing Trading Approach I didn’t add any new positions to the portfolio on Friday. I will be open to adding another long position this morning but will need to see evidence that the market is willing to bounce (again) off of its lows of the day. But more than likely, I’ll be playing it

  • My Swing Trading Approach Quiet day overall for me yesterday. I added one additional long setup on the morning dip. I’m a little reluctant at this point to add additional long exposure as I am about as long as I want to be under the current circumstances. May look for opportunities to raise some cash

  • My Swing Trading Approach I took profits early on in Netflix (NFLX) as it failed to hold the profits from yesterday and came away with a +1.1% profit on the trade. I added an energy play to the portfolio as the sector continued its impressive performance for a second straight day. Retail numbers came

  • My Swing Trading Approach I closed my sole short position at the market open yesterday and added two additional long positions. I’m open to adding another long position today, as long as the market holds up, and doesn’t attempt to give back yesterday’s gains.  Indicators Volatility Index (VIX) – Small drop yesterday considering the overall market’s

  • There’s not a lot stocks to swing-trade short out there… With that said, I haven’t taken a short position in any of these stocks listed below, and even though I had a short position coming into the day, that was quickly closed out at the open. The bulls made a big move today and that

  • My Swing Trading Approach By adding a long position yesterday to the portfolio, it balances out the short position that I am also carrying into the day from last week. I’ll look to aggressively add 1 to 2 new long positions in the early going.   Indicators Volatility Index (VIX) – A very dull session for the

  • My Swing Trading Approach I added a short position on Friday, it hasn’t done anything for me to this point, and with futures pointing higher, I’ll likely have to get out and get back on the long side. Right now it is pretty fluid, so the idea that the market could close the gap at

  • My Swing Trading Approach I closed my position in SPXU yesterday to avoid a late day rally in the market (SPXU trades inversely to the market) for a +2.4% profit. Yeah, I wouldn’t mind having it here at the open still, but I can always get back in it with the right risk/reward setup. I

  • My Swing Trading Approach Yesterday, I booked profits in Netflix (NFLX) for a +1.3% profit and I added one short position to the portfolio, which should play out well at the open of today’s market. The dip mentality remains strong in this market, so today will be a key test for it. If a rebound is
