My entry plan ideas
My stop plan:

Good Morning,
SPY: The past two weeks the spy as well as the overall market has been outstanding for the bullish minded swing traders, day traders as well. The all-time new highs are quite an accomplishment. Yesterday in the trading room we talked a little bit about how a successful swing trader might trade in the direction of the current overall market trend and be 99% invested in that trend whether its bullish or bearish but always good to keep one eye on the flipside. If the market and the overall attitude is bullish the successful trader might want to keep the short trade scans and inverse ETF’s close by and handy in your toolbox.

TSEM (Technology Sector Semiconductors) TSEM is the featured trade idea and today I feel it should be featured because of the bullish trend that it has been in, the pullback that is finding support on the 50-day simple moving average with a double bottom, the last four days has formed a four-bar cradle pattern, not to mention that yesterday we gapped over a doji and closed over the T-Line and the 20-day simple moving average.

NEO (Healthcare Sector Diagnostic and Research) NEO has had an impressive bullish T-Line run starting July 1 then met with profit taking late July. On Thursday and Friday of last week, we saw buyers coming in and closing Friday with an impressive morning star signal closing back over the T-Line and the 20-day simple moving average. Continued bullishness from here could post a 20+ percent gain for the swing trader.

FREE (Industrial Sector Shipping and Ports) Be very careful here; this trade is not for everybody and is meant to have a little fun with. It’s a cheapie that can be wild and crazy. FREE has started to construct a bottom starting July 23, laid some foundation and then started to rise Wednesday closing over the 50-day simple moving average yesterday. This has made FREE a rounded bottom breakout candidate with about 30% short-term profit potential. As mentioned above, be careful with this one as it can turn and be painful. This type of trade is not for everybody.

ZLTQ (Healthcare Sector Medical Devices) ZLTQ has formed a bullish morning star PBO and exploded with buyers yesterday. I am looking for a challenge of the January 16 highs which is approximately 22-1/2% of profits. ZLTQ is a chart that was discovered by one of our members 1973Hog a couple of days ago. Many of the members in the trading room bought near the $19 area when Steve posted it. Today it is a featured trade idea because of the strength that it’s showing for the target above. Thank you, Steve.

SPEX (Industrial Sector Business Services) There is 160% of profits to be had to the 200-day moving average and forming a rounded-bottom breakout, which, FYI, is my favorite chart pattern of all! SPEX closed over the big three yesterday after forming a higher low double bottom chart pattern. It pays to be in the Hit-And-Run Candlesticks trading room during the day. One of our members pointed SPEX out when it confirmed the rounded-bottom breakout. We went long at $1.73.

AAPL (Technology Sector Consumer-Electronics) AAPL was featured as our trade idea on July 8, and after a rough start for a couple of days, it did pull out a nice 4% profit. APPL has now pulled back to the 50-day simple moving average and painted a little hammer. The candlestick hammer may be the bottoming signal were looking for to receive a run to $100 or more, possibly a 6% to 10% swing this time.
