Today’s Swing Trade Ideas
NUGT / Long (Gold Miners Bull ETF) NUGT became a Rounded Bottom Breakout on January 7 and continues to consolidate above the 50-period moving average. You can see all eight of the Rounded Bottom Breakout setup rules found in the e-book. Also, a bullish double bottom and a Doji Bullish Engulf secured the 20- period moving average.
My entry plan idea: Below $15.59 would be nice, but I’d also take an entry below $16.86.
My stop plan idea: I’m going to use a 5% stop or a bearish candlestick on the close
Good Morning,

TGTX / Long (Healthcare) TGTX has formed a support line near the $15.40 area. After a big snap to the upside, we are seeing profit taking near the 20-day simple moving average. Yesterday formed a morning star-type reversal signal. On a breakout of the recent high, we would have a J-Hook continuation pattern with a 30%-plus profit target.
My entry plan idea: Positive trading above yesterday’s close or an inside day
My stop plan idea: A close below the T-Line for now

LOCO / Long (Restaurants) LOCO was trading bearish for several days below the T-Line, and a low was put in on December 16. Then for the next week or so, price moved sideways still underneath the T-Line with a slight dip creating a scoop pattern. A tiny bullish Harami sparked a gap with another gap closing over the T-Line and the 20-day simple moving average. The T-Line is currently 13% away from the 34 EMA. If bought low enough, we can call this a pinball setup to the 34 EMA and on continued follow-through, there is a possible 25% profit to the 50-period moving average.
My entry plan idea: Inside day buy below yesterday’s high and above the T-Line
My stop plan idea: A close back below the T-Line for now

EXK / Long (Basic Materials Silver) EXK has come off of its lows closing above the T-Line with about 13 1/2% between the T-Line and the 34 EMA and about 25% from the T-Line to the 50-day simple moving average. EXK is set up for both a pinball trade as well as a snap-back 50 trade. Also take note of the 1-2-3 formation with the Doji Bullish Engulf the last two trading days. All are strategies that we use here at Hit &Run Candlesticks.

REN / Long (Energy sector) REN is a pinball setup with about 39% to the pinball target. REN is a 1-2-3 chart with a confirmed bullish morning star that has now closed back above the T-Line and the 20-day simple moving average. The chart is still in a confirmed downtrend; therefore, we are only looking for a relief rally.
My entry plan idea: Inside day with a close over the 20-day period moving average would be nice.
My stop plan idea: A close back below the T-Line.
Trade management is so very important.
