ENDP Setup and Trade Plan

by

Today’s Featured Trade Idea is ENDP.

Members can hear Rick’s detailed review in the trading room at 9:10am Eastern.  For now, here is my analysis and a potential trade plan made using our Trader Vision 20/20 software.

ENDP has been in a strong rally since early May. After a huge “Gap and run up” day on earnings, it took profit for a few days. However the Bulls have stepped back in the last couple days to create either a Bullish “Trader’s Best Friend” or Morning Star type signal…and is forming a J-hook.

I will be looking for follow-through to buy above Tuesday’s high using the convergence of Weekly S/R levels with Fib Extensions as my Targets. Beware I am using a large Stop on this one…so think about whether his matches your own risk profile.

Notice I’ve made special note that I am only looking to Enter on a successful retest of Support, with the buy on the way back up.

Trader Vision 20/20 shows us that earnings are out of the way. It also tells us that we have 6 Bullish conditions and no Bearish conditions…making this an attractive setup.

TV20/20 then tells us that this Trade Plan has a constraint. Notice that due to the large Stop (8.6%), we can only take a small positions size (1.6% of the account) while keeping our “Risk to Stop” below the threshold we set for this account ($150). However, this trade can work. It would give us a 2.4:1 ($339: $141) Reward/Risk at the 1st Target. We would not reach our entire Trade Goal if we had to sell right there.

However, not far above Target #1, we could book our entire Trade Goal. If we were able to sell half at Target #1 and hold the remainder up to Target #2, you can see we will easily make our Trade Goal. In fact, that would give us a > 26% ($431.50) overall profit on the trade.

Having this knowledge before a trade is even entered makes it much easier to control emotions and maintain discipline.

Below is my markup of the chart and the trade plan as laid out by Trader Vision 20/20.  As a bonus, if you click the green button below, you’ll be able to watch a video of the chart markup and trade planning process.

Testimonial

Trader Vision immediately simplified the process…immediately it provided that information and guidance to me. I knew what I would risk for how much reward, I began taking trades off at the 1st target, 2nd target, I was no longer holding all my trades for the homerun. I also began implementing the stop losses if and when they were reached, not just hoping the stock would recover.  It then became easier to see what patterns were working for me and which were not.  It provided a much more relaxed and stress-free environment. –Joan G

DRIP Setup and Trade Plan

by

Warning…this blog contains trade IDEAS…not recommendations.  And there is no law saying you have to trade every day.

Today’s Featured Trade Idea is DRIP.

Members can hear Rick’s detailed review in the trading room at 9:10am Eastern.  For now, here is my analysis and a potential trade plan made using our Trader Vision 20/20 software.

DRIP has formed a bottom and has been putting in higher-highs and higher-lows since the first half of June. It has broken into a RBB pattern and took out a Weekly resistance level on a strong day Monday.

I will look for an inside day buy, hoping to even see a successful retest to prove the broken Resistance is now Support with a Target up at the next Weekly Resistance (about $7.30). If we are very lucky in a choppy market, the 2nd Target is up about $8.25.

Being an ETF, we have no earnings to worry about. Trader Vision 20/20 tells us we have 5 Bullish conditions and only 1 Bearish condition for this Setup. So it is worth considering.  TV20/20 shows us this Trade Plan can offer a 3.28: 1 ($108:$354) Reward/Risk at Target #1 and if we were lucky enough to get a trend here, 5.86:1 ($633:$108) at the 2nd Target.

Notice I’ve made special note that I am only looking to Enter on a successful retest of Support, with the buy on the way back up.

Inverted Head and Shoulder On DRIP

I see an Inverted Head and Shoulder has formed on the S&P Oil and Gas Exploration (ETF) DRIP. Yesterday buyers push price action above the Inverted H&S resistant line. Price and the T-Line have crossed above the 34-EMA and 50-SMA. DRIP has also become an (RBB) Rounded Bottom Breakout pattern. If bought we will look for about $7.30 and $8.25 as possible profit zones. For more details on the DRIP trade, please click the following link.

SPY • It’s Been Bumpy

Yesterday the SPY ran into more bumps causing a new low to close below the T-Line. The recent candle price action (Island Reversal), (Doji Bearish Engulf) shows the buyers have taken a break.

Today Tuesday, August 14, Premarket the futures are up a bit and HD beat on earnings, so the question is, have the buyers come back? First, the resistance of about $284.25 needs to be cleared by the buyers. If weakness continues, we are looking for the $279.40 area as support.

****VXX – The VXX chart is looking for a crack in the ceiling to slip through. The last three days the VXX has attempted a relief rally but stopped by major moving averages and price resistance.

A Nasty Battle

by

A Nasty Battle

A Nasty BattleYesterday’s price action turned out to be a nasty battle between the Bulls and Bears with whipsawing leadership several times and likely chopping up accounts.  At the end of the day, the Bears came out victorious leaving behind bearish candle patterns across all 4-major index charts.  Normally that would suggest some follow-through bearishness this morning, but instead, the market seems inclined to serve up another overnight whipsaw.

Asian markets closed mixed and European seem to be following suit, but the US Futures are casting aside Turkish jitters with the US Futures decidedly bullish this morning.  News that an agreement between the US and Mexico is easing trade tensions.  Is this the energy we need to run for new market highs?  Maybe, but remember the lesson given us yesterday; Chasing the open with a fear of missing out can serve up some big losses if the market whipsaws once again.  Carefully plan your approach to the market this morning with that in mind.

On the Calendar

The Economic Calendar gets going early this morning the NFIB Small Business Optimism Index at 6:00 AM Eastern.  Then at 8:30 AM we get the only potential market-moving report with Import and Export Prices.  Forecasters expect import price 0.1 percent higher in July with export prices increasing 0.2 percent in July.  We have Redbook @ 8:55 AM, and two Bond Auctions at 11:30 AM to close the calendar day.

On the Earnings Calendar, we have more than 250 companies reporting earnings today with retail reports as a central theme.  After today the volume or earnings reports drops substantially as the 3rd quarter earnings start to wind down.

Action Plan

I think it’s fair to say that yesterday’s price action was an absolute mess as uncertainty driven whipsaws ruled the day.  Across all 4-indexes daily bearish candles were left behind suggesting a high likelihood of more bearish price action today.  Well, not so much!  It would appear after an announcement that the US and Mexico have come to terms on a new trade agreement all the Turkish jitters have taken a back seat.  Once again Futures began to rally around midnight and have continued to push higher with the Dow currently suggesting a 100 point gap up.  If you feel a twinge of pain from whiplash, you’re not alone as the market continues to be very challenging to trade.

Is this the news we needed for the Bulls to launch to all-time highs in the QQQ’s, SPY and IWM?  Or perhaps could this be just another whipsaw that continues to chop up accounts.  Your guess is as good as mine!  Avoid getting caught up in the opening drama and resist the urge to chase the gap.  If you rushed in yesterday and punished for doing so, don’t repeat the same mistake today.  Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me.  I for one will wait for the morning rush to pass and stay focused on price action watching for clues of follow-through buying before deciding on any new risk.

Trade Wisely,

Doug

Turkish Uncertainty

by

Turkish Uncertainty

Turkish UncertaintyThe market hates uncertainty, and the rapid fluctuations in the Turkish Lira has without question raised some uncertainty.  Banks around the world including many US Banks holding Turkish debit will obviously experience some pressure as the Turkish economy struggles.  Dow Futures have rallied significantly from overnight lows with the bounce off the Lira.  Asian markets closed lower and European markets are also under pressure this morning.

It’s unlikely the fluctuations of the Lira are over so we should expect an increase in volatility as a result.  The VIX bounced sharply on Friday indicating some fear is creeping into the markets.  It will be incumbent on the Bulls to defend key support levels, or we could experience some technical damage in the index charts.  Remain flexible, stay focused on price and be willing to shift if market sentiment begins to shift.

On the Calendar

We kick off the Economic Calendar this week with a very light day.  We have a Bond Announcement at 11:00 AM Eastern.  Then at 11:30 AM we wrap up the day with two Bond Auctions.  I would expect no market reaction.

On the Earnings Calendar, we have just over 140 companies reporting today.  Earnings numbers will begin dropping off this week, but although there will be fewer, we must remain vigilant, checking reports against holdings.

Action Plan

Asian markets were sharply lower overnight, and European markets also lower this morning as the collapsing economy in Turkey reverberates around the world.  Dow Futures were down nearly 200 points around midnight but have since rallied significantly currently pointing to a market open about 75 points lower.  Keep in mind a test of the overnight low would not be out of the question so plan your risk carefully.

Of course, even US Banks are being affected by the Turkish economic issues as they hold significant amounts of the countries debt.  The SPY and DIA indexes have the majority exposure of the exposure to the banks and thus will likely experience some volatility as the Turkish currency fluctuates violently.  Technically both the SPY and QQQ have failed at resistance however if the Bulls step up and defend support levels another push higher is certainly possible.  If prices begin to fail key supports, the Bears could easily take control so keep an eye on price action and prepare for an increase in volatility.

Trade Wisely,

Doug

Pop Out OF the Box Setting Up

https://hitandruncandlesticks.com/trading-results/

“If you love what you do you will never work a day in your life”

Pop Out of The Box is setting up on HMSY. HMSY has been trending nicely and a few days ago gapped and as held higher than the gap close. The last four candles have tightened up forming the Pop Out of The Box pattern. The weekly chart looks like a little flag breakout with a Doji continuation pattern. Note the daily and hourly charts are closed Friday above the V-Stop but the 15 min closed below the V-Stop. Let’s stay on our toes this week, keep losses small and take profits into strength. We have added a few shorts to our watch list. For more details on the HMSY trade, please click the following link.

SPY • A State of Rest

Friday we saw a little market weakness with the SPY dropping $1.91 and closing below the T-Line putting the short term trend negative. On the Bright side price did close above the 20-SMA. If the buyers fail to find support near the 20-SMA the 34-EMA and August low $279.40 are in the crosshairs. (VT) Total world Stock ETF has dropped below $75.20; this warrants extreme caution for the bull. I consider VT being below $75.20 and huge clue if we start to see the SPY break trend we will move money into a few shorts.

****VXX – The VXX gapped up and closed above the T-Line on strong volume, I suspect we could see a challenge of $32.50 this week. Bulls are cautious.

HMSY Setup and Trade Plan

by

Today’s Featured Trade Idea is HMSY.

Members can hear Rick’s detailed review in the trading room at 9:10am Eastern.  For now, here is my analysis and a potential trade plan made using our Trader Vision 20/20 software.

HMSY printed a Bullish Engulfing signal on Friday within a tight consolidation after a strong Bull run.  I will be looking for confirmation on Monday using the $29.96 Support level to protect my Stop and using the convergence of Weekly S/R levels with Fib Extensions (of the recent Bull run) as my Targets.

Trader Vision shows us that earnings are out of the way. It also tells us we have 6 Bullish conditions versus No Bearish conditions for this setup.

TV20/20 also shows us that we can achieve our Trade Goal even before reaching the 1st Target price. If we make that first Target, we can get over a 5:1 Reward/Risk. However, if we sell half and hold the rest until Target #2, we can achieve a 6.33:1 Reward/Risk ($475 profit).

Having this knowledge before a trade is even entered makes it much easier to control emotions and maintain discipline.

Below is my markup of the chart and the trade plan as laid out by Trader Vision 20/20.  As a bonus, if you click the green button below, you’ll be able to watch a video of the chart markup and trade planning process.

FNSR Setup and Trade Plan

by

Today’s Featured Trade Idea is FNSR.

Members can hear Rick’s detailed review in the trading room at 9:10am Eastern.  For now, here is my analysis and a potential trade plan made using our Trader Vision 20/20 software.

FNSR broke through the 200sma and printed a Bullish Engulfing signal on Thursday. I’ll be looking for follow-through to break the July high Resistance level (also longer-term Weekly level) with Targets based off the Weekly S/R levels above. Remember this is Friday, so we have 2 additional days of headline risk, but I like this chart and on follow-through will be taking a position.

Trader Vision tells us we have a month until earnings. It also shows that we have 6 Bullish conditions (should be 7 with the Bull Engulf signal) and no Bearish conditions in favor of this trade.

TV20/20 then shows us that this plan offers over 2:1 Reward/Risk to the first Target and over 3:1 Reward/Risk if we can sell half at the first Target and the rest at the 2nd Target. Overall, this would give us a 11.64% profit ($440) and easily make our Trade Goal. In fact, TV20/20 tells us we can make that goal if FNSR reaches $20.65.

Having this knowledge before a trade is even entered makes it much easier to control emotions and maintain discipline.
