Today’s Swing Trade Ideas

TKMR/Long (Healthcare Sector Biotechnology) TKMR has been trending nicely from late July this year with little rallies and pullbacks.  It has recently pulled back to the 20-day simple moving average and formed a bullish harami yesterday.  The lower wick is not quite long enough to call a hammer.  A swing from yesterday’s close to the recent high is about 25% — excellent money in its own right and about 30% to a double-top test.  Most everyone in the Hit & Run Candlesticks trading room either owns it now or is considering it.  Thank you to all the members that have been talking about it and posting this ticker in the room.

My entry plan idea:   (Currently own shares at 23.20) Will consider adding more above the 20-day period moving average and on a breakout of the T-Line
My stop plan idea:  A close below 22.35

TZA/Long (Small Bear ETF)  TZA was a featured trade idea on September 5 of this year.  A cool 26% could have been yours before the bearish harami on October 2.  TZA has now pulled back to the T-Line forming a doji followed by a bullish engulf.  This is what we at Hit & Run Candlesticks call a PBO (pullback opportunity).

My entry plan idea:   Buy above 17.14

My stop plan idea:  A close below the T-Line

RALY/Long (Technology Sector Software) RALY Has been in a RBB pattern (rounded bottom breakout) from the gap of August 29, for about a month now it’s been walking along the T-Line and looks like it’s ready to finish its run to the 200 period moving average which is approximately 12% away. With a successful bullish breakout of the 200 period moving average I see another 20% possible. Remember to consider the direction of the overall market as it can benefit and harm you.

My entry plan idea:   Positive trading above the T-Line

My stop plan idea: A close below the T-Line

Today’s Swing Trade Ideas

LYB (Specialty Chemicals) has formed a RTB (rounded top breakdown) and a blue ice failure. LYB is in the process of putting in lower highs and yesterday closed back below the 50-day moving average on pretty good volume. With continued weakness and bearish follow-through, an $8 to $12 drop is very possible.

My entry plan idea:   I would prefer to short on an inside day, but I might have to settle for weakness below yesterday’s close with a caution not to chase it. I may be able to pick it up on a relief rally.
My stop plan idea: Today it will be completely dependent on where the buy is, but anything above the 50-day moving average would suggest the buyers are back in town.

Good Morning,

I have two ticker symbols I would like to share with you. The first one is the Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF VTI. If you open up your charts with VTI, you can see how this correction started with the candlestick bearish engulf, had follow-through and is currently below the 50-day moving average and has consistently been below the T-Line. Another chart I would like to share is the
