Today’s Swing Trade Ideas
TASR/Long (Aerospace and Defense) I could really kick myself for not buying TASR yesterday as it started moving up through the 20-period moving average. We talked about it in the trading room and several of our members did take advantage of it. Yesterday’s close produced a bullish morning star signal after a run from late October with a slight profit taking pull back starting in late December.
Possible entry plan idea: Inside day or breakout of yesterday’s candle
Possible stop plan idea: Below $29.50
Good Morning,
SPY: Yesterday’s close at $202.05 put us back in the symmetrical wedge that we had drawn a week and a half ago. Any trading within that wedge is simply Continue Reading

EXK/Long (Basic Materials Silver) EXK had four days of consolidation after a Rounded Bottom Breakout (RBB) pattern. Friday printed a bull kicker-type signal and the combined overall pattern has the possibility of a 30% plus return.
Possible entry plan idea: Positive trading over $2.73
Possible stop plan idea: Below $2.49
Good Morning,
SPY: Friday’s bullish piercing candle, two cents from a Bullish Engulf and what appears to be no bad news over the long weekend Continue Reading

UVXY/Long (Ultra VIX short) UVXY is a play on market fear. Yesterday’s Bullish Engulf closing over the 200-period moving average comes after a continuation pattern, a PBO Bullish Engulf, and a little rounded bottom, not to mention the bullish “W” pattern and the little cup and handle. Let’s not forget The Rounded Bottom Breakout (RBB) pattern.
My entry plan idea: (I already own it) but will be looking to add more on positive trading above yesterday’s open. More than likely, I will be closing this out today.
My stop plan idea: Below $31.35
The best trading group to hang out with! Why? MUX and CLF were pointed out by members yesterday as nice set-ups. Sold SA yesterday for a small percent. Profits are profits. Took a few losses yesterday heading into the long weekend. Monday is a holiday, so there’s a high probability of a little more selling today because of traders wanting to be flat for three days off.
Good Morning,
SPY: Eleven days ago, I started talking about the bearish “M” pattern setting up in the SPY. Since then, the SPY has lost 3.6% and Continue Reading
