SPDRs S&P 500 (SPY)

My Swing Trading Strategy I came into yesterday with just one long position and I left with just one long position. I made no new trades. The market showed no willingness to commit to a direction and as a result, I stood to the side and let the market play itself out.  Indicators Volatility Index

My Swing Trading Strategy I booked gains in Amazon (AMZN) for a +2.7% profit as well as Microsoft (MSFT) for a +3.1% profit. Both solid trades. I am only left with one long position coming into Monday. I will look to see whether the morning weakness holds and if it does, consider adding a short position or two

My Swing Trading Strategy Another gap down this morning, which obviously doesn’t bode well for a market that has yet to finish in the green this week, and on track to have its work week so far of 2019. I played TQQQ for a day-trade yesterday and a +2.3% profit. On the flip side I
