I’m not touching this stock market just yet. Yeah, the bulls have managed to rally a respectable amount off the lows, 30 points as of this writing, but still a 94 point sell-off, and there have been enough of these kinds of sell-offs before, that it doesn’t take much to [...]
Swing Trade Approach: Some seasonal factors starting to hit this market strong. Yes, this is usually a bullish time for the market at this time of the year, and we are seeing nothing short of that. With the Fed blowing the top off with repo purchases, this market is likely [...]
Swing Trade Approach: Nearly three days of extremely dull price action. I don’t have high hopes for that changing tomorrow. Essentially what you have is a market that only pushes higher on the Fed’s “Not QE4”. China trade news, for now is out of the way, and the market is [...]
Swing Trade Approach: Here’s the thing, if you get in on a day like today, where the market was contained, pretty much, in a five point range, you aren’t playing for today, but for the expectation that the market is going higher in the days ahead and you don’t want [...]
Swing Trade Approach: Plenty of trade setups out there still, surprising, considering how much this market has risen in the past few months. Volume still remains above average and actually building upon volume levels from Friday. Still, you must be keep sliding your stops on your existing trades higher, so [...]
My Swing Trades A bunch of trade setups triggered today in the Splash Zone. One in particular that was my favorite was the almost 6% pop in Trinity Industries (TRN). Still waiting for Splunk (SPLK) to break out but long last it looks like it is falling apart without ever the chance of breaking [...]
My Swing Trades I’ve taken it easy the past few trading sessions, as I used the time away from the market to re-energize and refocus my efforts on closing out 2019 on a positive note. With that said, the market continues to show a strong bias to the upside, and [...]
My Swing Trades I made a quick day-trade in Pure Storage (PSTG) on Friday for a quick +1.8% profit, while adding two new swing-trade long positions to the portfolio. I’m leaning slightly bullish here, and may even add more long exposure from the Tech sector tomorrow. The market looks primed to retest its all-time [...]
My Swing Trades I booked a +3% Profit in NextEra Energy (NEE). I also jump into to Catepillar (CAT) and quickly got out at the close for a 0.1% profit, as I decided not to take the position overnight with the market selling off into the close. I may actually [...]
My Swing Trades I didn’t take any trades today, but managed to scalp a little $ROKU on the way up in the morning, but that was about it. Still holding one long and one short position as swing-trades. At this point, any new long position in a growth stock is [...]
My Swing Trades I added one new trade to the long side, while keeping my sole short position in the portfolio, and also dumping NUE for a -1% loss, soon after the open. With the market still buying the dips at every turn, but only enough to get the market back to [...]
My Swing Trades Ugh – wasn’t the best of trading for me today, not that I was undisciplined by any means, but the trades didn’t go my way. Square (SQ) just feel completely out of favor, and I took a -2% loss on the trade. I also added an additional [...]
