Yesterday’s short on Yahoo worked out very well in the trading room and looks as if the selling may continue. Yesterday was a rough day, and most everybody had to reevaluate their trading account, maybe even close a few losing trades. I did. As you know, stock trading is risky, and there are some days that the bears win; please don’t let anyone tell you or convince you of anything different. The score should be kept over a week or a month, not for one day. We try to teach and educate in the trading room and do not advocate following anyone into a trade.
Good Morning,
SPY: It’s pretty obvious that I really don’t have to tell you how rough yesterday was if you are 100% bullish. If you are able to shift gears and start catching a Continue Reading

EXK/Long (Silver) EXK has had a 62% run since late December and about a 30% swing from its last pullback. EXK printed a bullish piercing candle yesterday, opening below the T-Line and closing above the T-Line. This is what we call a PBO (pullback opportunity).

ATEN/Long (Technology) ATEN is no stranger to our trading room, a few weeks ago many from the room profited from this chart. On January 15 ATEN posted a low followed by an inside day (bullish Harami), followed by a high then a higher low. Friday printed and 8.27% candle and the chart appears to be on its way to a J-Hook breakout. I will be watching for 20% move or about the $6.50 area as the first target then price may climb through the window.
Possible entry plan idea: Inside day Below 5.37 or on a slight breakout
Possible stop plan idea: A close below The T-Line
Good Morning,

MCEP/Long (Energy Sector ) SX90/XLE led the way yesterday both with a hammer on January 14 and the follow-through has led them above the T-Line ready to cross the 20-period moving average. MCEP formed a bullish piercing candle on December 17 followed by consolidation and a bullish scoop pattern. Gapping yesterday and closing above both the T-Line and the 20-period moving average leads me to believe the next short-term swing target could be around $7.40 which is a 30% trade and another 30% on bullish follow-through to the 50- period moving average.
Possible entry plan idea: Inside day or breakout of yesterday’s candle
Possible stop plan idea: A close below $5.59

SPY: It has been pretty obvious the market was waiting for the ECB announcement of the ECB-QE the last few days; so now what? Easy, and back to the Continue Reading

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
