• 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 simply in a holding pattern.

  • 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 to find yourself chasing a

  • 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 as to not risk losing

  • 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 out of the continuation triangle

  • 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 I will continue to trade

  • 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 highs this week, and it

  • 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 regret not taking that position

  • 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 a high risk trade, because

  • 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 break even, it makes it

  • 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 long and short position to
