Swing Trade Ideas August 3, 2015

One of Today’s Featured Trade Ideas

AMPE/Long (Healthcare biotechnology)   We have had our eye on AMPE for some time since July 21 and has been on our members’ list ever sense.  It’s now pulled back to both the 20- and 50-day simple moving average with an inverted hammer on Thursday, and Friday came close to printing an actual hammer. AMPE is one of our bullish Rounded Bottom Breakouts with a nice series of higher lows.
I will be covering more on the trade plan (entry, stop, targets) in the trading room at 9:10 AM EDT today. Click here to learn more

Something to think about:
Education – As with any new skill, the foundation is education. Ask yourself, “Would you start to build a house if you had no knowledge of construction concepts and applications?”  NO!  Traders first learn the basics, such as technical analysis and fundamental analysis.  Read books and attend webinars/workshops. This is really the start of building your knowledge base, so you can later shape your trading style and philosophy. As you mature as a trader, education continues to play an integral role in your success so you never stop learning.

SPY:  The SPY closed Friday with a bearish dark cloud cover candle and closing above the big three and the T-Line.  While the sellers controlled Friday itself, the buyers still controlled last week.  If we were to see bearish follow-through from the dark cover candle, then that would be a sign that last week’s relief rally has run the course and the overall bears are taking control back.  Of course, if the buyers were able to keep price closing above $209, this would suggest they’re trying to keep the party going.

IWM:  IWM had a pretty good week last week with price ending up over the T-Line; unfortunately, the run was mediocre at best and gained no real bullish traction.

SMH:  SMH could be trying to form a bottom, but I think the savvy trader would have patience and trade above the construction area.
IYT:  It was a good week last week for the transports.  The candle pattern held up well, and the buyers stayed strong all through the week.  Above $154.00, the buyers would be in good position to take on the 200-day simple moving average.
