DDD Setup and Trade Plan

by

Today’s Featured Trade Idea is GLUU.  There is a lot to like about this stock which has been solidly Bullish, even in the face of an overall Market that has chopped back-and-forth in a range for weeks.  However recently it has done a brief J-hook pattern to consolidate and avoid over-extension.  Now it has printed a Doji Continuation at the breakout level.  As a bonus, we now have video of the markup and creation of the trade plan (which took less than 4 minutes, including talking to record the video).

For a more detailed analysis of the ticker, refer to Rick’s Public Stock Trade Idea for today…or, of course, members can listen to his detailed analysis in the trading room at 9:10am Eastern.

However, for now, here is my analysis and a potential trade plan made using our Trader Vision 20/20 software.

Let’s Shoot For 18% On DDD

SPY • More Buyers Than Sellers

Another fine day in the market yesterday, you gotta love this job. The price action in the SPY was a sign of the buyers flexing there muscle. A close over $273.60 today would indicate the buyers still plan to challenge the upper channel line. From the daily chart to the weekly chart you can see Bullish Engulfs, a Bullish Rising Method,  and Bullish Morning Stars not to mention the continuation pattern. VXX – The Red, White and Blue indicator is signaling there is not much fear in the VXX chart. Price is also below the T-Line

GLUU Setup & Trade Plan

Today’s Featured Trade Idea is GLUU.  There is a lot to like about this stock which has been solidly Bullish, even in the face of an overall Market that has chopped back-and-forth in a range for weeks.  However recently it has done a brief J-hook pattern to consolidate and avoid over-extension.  Now it has printed a Doji Continuation at the breakout level.  As a bonus, we now have video of the markup and creation of the trade plan (which took less than 4 minutes, including talking to record the video).

However, for now, here is my analysis and a potential trade plan made using our Trader Vision 20/20 software.

The GLUU Trade Setup – As of 6-1-18

 

 

The GLUU Trade Plan

 

In this trade, note how Trader Vision 20/20 does the work for you by looking up the earnings date and analyzing the chart versus good trading rules.  In this case, it tells us we have the Short-Term and Long-Term trends in favor of a Long trade as well as multiple Bullish Patterns in place.  We noted in the video that the Add to this the fact that the Candles Signal is close to (but not exactly) a Bullish Signal and the relation to Support and potential Resistance and it all comes down to a nice Setup.

Also, note that the trade can reach the Trade Goal by selling only half the position at the first Target.  If that comes to pass, you’d have the chance to keep raising your Stop while letting the Longer-Term Trend work for the second half of your position.  That could lead to a risk-free second half and an  Reward/Risk over 2.71:1.  This means risking $155 for a chance to make between $320 (if 100% is sold at Target #1) or even $420 (If half is eventually sold at Target #2).

The economy is humming right along.

by

The economy is humming right along.

The economy is humming right along.With last weeks numbers indicating the economy is humming right along with strong jobs growth and wage increase, the Bulls seem ready to mount attacks on resistance levels.  The European concerns have passed at least for now, and the US and North Korea summit is back on the schedule.  This weekend the President will travel to Canada for the G7 Summit where there could be some tensions after leveling new tariffs on steel and aluminum on them last week.

Trade negotiations on the North American Free Trade Agreement and with China will likely continue to send shock waves through the market over the next several weeks, but Bulls currently seem inspired to move higher with a substantial gap up open to begin the week.

On the Calendar

The Economic Calendar this week gets going at 10:00 AM Eastern with Factory Orders.  According to consensus, the durable good report expects orders to slip 0.4 percent in April.  After that, there is Bill Announcement, two Bill Auctions, and the TD Ameritrade IMX report to close the calendar day at 12.30 PM.

Earnings Calendar

The Earnings Calendar shows 32 companies will report today to keep traders on toes with the most notable PANW after the bell.

Action Plan

With the Jobs number coming in strong and real wages increasing the Bulls found the inspiration they needed to move higher on Friday.  International concerns in Italy and Spain have subsided, and it appears the summit with North Korea is back on for June 6th.  Trade negotiations will once again take center stage and continue to weigh heavily on the market particularly with the President traveling to Canada this week.

Currently, the Dow Futures are pointing to more than a 100 point gap up at the open.  After breaking resistance on Friday, the QQQ looks ready to attempt a new record high in the near future.  The SPY is set to gap above resistance at the open today with the IWM leaning the way looking to post a new record high at the open.  As always be very careful not to chase gap up opens as they can often create nasty whipsaws.  Having said that, the Bulls do seem set to gain some control as long as trader negotiation jitters remain in check.  Go Bulls!

Trade Wisely,

Doug

GLUU Recently Broke Out

by

GLUU Recently Broke Out

GLUU had recently broken out and ran 20% before it needed rest to build another bullish continuation pattern. Continuation patterns rarely look as perfect as they do on paper, this is because when on paper the noise is usually cut out. But on a chart, you just can’t photoshop the noise out. Using price resistance and Fibonacci Lines we see 12 to 28% possible target zones in this swing trade. You can find the GLLUU trade Plan under “Free Trade Idea” “TV20/20 Trade Plan”

SPY Bullish Morning Star

For a Bullish trend you must have followed through, and higher lows and higher highs. Friday we saw follow through from the 3rd major higher low that started in April. Fridays bullish follow through is what was needed to complete the Bullish Morning Star signal from last week. Our Red, White and Blue indicators are still signaling in favor of the Bulls. VXX – The Red, White and Blue indicator is signaling there is not much fear in the VXX chart. Price is also below the T-Line

Politically driven whipsaw.

by

Politically driven whipsaw.

Politically driven whipsawIt looks like yet another politically driven whipsaw this morning in Dow with the Futures currently pointing to more than a 100 point gap up at the open.  The good news is that the Dow managed to hold above the 50-day average yesterday as it struggles to find a balance amidst all the political uncertainty.  I believe a politically charged market is one of the most challenging to trade.  It can shift directions in half a heartbeat turning profitable positions into losers and vice-versa.

As traders become more and more frustrated, it’s easy to break discipline and begin to trade emotionally.  If you find yourself riding this emotional roller-coaster; try to focus on your trade plan and rules or stop trading until you can.  Remember trading is business, and there is no room in business for undisciplined emotionally charged decisions.

On the Calendar

It’s been a busy week on the Economic Calendar, and this Friday continues that trend with five potential market-moving reports.  Before the market open, forecasters expect Motor Vehicle Sales to hint at a strong month for retail with a 17.1 million annualized rate in May.  At 8:30 AM Eastern the Employment Situation consensus is calling for additional strength with a consensus of 190,000 new jobs created in May.  The unemployment rate holds steady at 3.9% while wage growth is only up a modest 1 tenth to 2.7 percent.  9:45 AM bring the PMI Mfg. Index where forecasters expect a 56.6 reading in May as orders continue to run at multi-year highs.  The ISM Mfg Index at 10:00 AM expects gains to 58.5 in May vs. 57.3 April report with strong growth for new orders continue.  Also at 10:00 AM consensus suggests Construction Spending rallied 0.8 percent in April.  We have a Fed Speaker at 8:55 AM and the Baker-Hughes Rig Count at 1:00 PM to close the calendar week.

On the Earnings Calendar, we only have 13 companies reporting today.

Action Plan

Another day of politically generated volatility with the Dow narrowly clinging its 50-day average by the close.  After waiting a month for a better trade deal, the President is keeping in his promise by imposing tariffs and steal and aluminum on Mexico and the EU.  Of course, nations have already fired back with new tariffs of their own as the negotiations continue.  Surprisingly markets are up around the world with both Asian and Europian markets showing solid gains.  As a result, the Dow Futures are pointing to a gap up open of more than 100 points as the index continues to whipsaw on a daily basis.  With the SPY, QQQ, and IWM all holding up quite well I continue to be cautiously bullish.  I wish you all a wonderful weekend everyone.

Trade Wisely,

Doug

National Doughnut Day

by

National Doughnut Day

Ya, it’s Friday and National Doughnut Day, being that it’s Friday we don’t usally post any trade ideas. As choppy as this markets been I don’t think it’s a great idea to be entering trades on a Friday’s and holding over the weekend. Rather it’s a better idea to close a few positions and take your money or even a loss or two. I just flipped through the recent trade ideas, and plenty looks like there set up and ready to run. FYI I don’t close all my positions before the weekend, but I do tighten up the account.

Trading Proof Provided

If you have been following the progress of my 2018 project “Road To Wealth” I have a little update. It looks like the account is up 175% ending with May, not to bad. The project started January 1, 2018, with $5,000.00, Starting June 1, the account is now worth $13,568.00.

Every month we have an educational workshop to help become a better trader. On June 6th the workshop will be on Fibonacci Retracements and Extensions. Check it out Click Here

SPY Market

The is no doubt the SPY and the market has been a bit choppy and difficult to navigate from time to time we still think the bulls have the upper hand. The charts tell the story. Education is the key to beating the charts.

KRG Trade Setup and Plan

by

Normally, Hit and Run Candlesticks does not post featured trades on Fridays.  However, I’ll offer a bonus trade idea for today anyway.  Just remember that Friday is payday!  We should be primarily focused on existing postions, taking profits and deciding if weekend headline risk changes whether a potions should be adjusted or closed.

Today’s Featured Trade Idea is KRG.  This stock has printed an Inverted Head and Shoulders pattern, which is also a Rounded Bottom Breakout pattern.  It has broken through the neckline and Resistance on Wednesday.  It then retested that level Thursday, holding it as Support.  On positive trading, we can use a stop fairly tight below Support and Target prices from Support/Resistance levels off the Weekly chart.

While this stock is a REIT (be aware for tax purposes), it will offer a very low Risk for a reasonable position size.  This offers a good Reward/Risk Ratio, while allowing us to remove all risk (by raising the Stop above Break-even) if Target #1 is reached.  If the stock reaches the second Target, the Trade Goal will be achieved.

Hope to see you in the trading room at 9:10am Eastern.

Below is my analysis and a potential trade plan made using our Trader Vision 20/20 software.

The KRG Trade Setup – As of 5-31-18

 

 

The KRG Trade Plan

 

Notice how Trader Vision 20/20 does the work for you, by allowing you to define your risk in terms of “Position Size” (Dollars invested in a trade), “Risk to Stop” (Dollars lost if stopped out) and in terms or Reward/Risk Ratio.  It’s easy to look at all the various scenarios using Trader Vision.  So you know…

  • How much money is at risk if Stopped Out?
  • How much will be gained if we sell the entire position at Target #1?
  • What does that mean in terms of Reward/Risk Ratio?
  • How much will be gained if we sell half the position at Target #1 and the remainder at Target #2?
  • What does that mean in terms of Reward/Risk Ratio?

Knowing all these scenarios really takes the pressure off a trader, making it much easier to control your emotions during a trade.  It also logs all this information so that down the road you can see exactly what you were thinking.  These are some of the benefits of TV20/20
