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

NQ (Technology Sector Software Application) NQ Is a rounded bottom breakout with about 20% to the first target of the July 30 high and about 60% to the 200 day period moving average. NQ started with a Bullish Engulf on July 18 followed up with a rally and then consolidated along the big 3 for a couple of months. Over the past two weeks we’ve seen a double bottom, Bullish Engulf, bullish consolidation with follow-through.

My entry plan idea: (Long on September 23) I will add to NQ on consolidation in the buy box or a bullish breakout.

My stop plan idea: Current stop plan is a close below $6.30

My entry plan ideas:

Good Morning,
SPY: It’s my opinion the market is beginning to form a top and we should see price fall further yet. It’s also my opinion that we will see relief along the way. Until I see a bullish bottom constructed, I will lean toward more short setups and inverse ETF long trades. I will pick up a few long trades, but I will also tighten up my rules on profit taking and stops.

BLOX (Technology Sector Communication Equipment) Yesterday confirmed a Bullish Engulf closing over the T-Line and the 20 day simple moving average in Our Rounded Bottom Breakout chart pattern. With 40% to the 200 day simple moving average and 20% to the 17.15 mid-target I think we can all profit. In $1000 investment at 20% would make a $200 profit. A $10,000 investment at 20% would make it $2000 profit.

TZA (Small Cap Bear 3X) Also featured on September 5, TZA has now formed higher lows and higher highs. Friday’s close is set to launch the higher high today. The bullish rising method painted in the TZA picture will try to launch price into the low $16 area and then maybe try to sneak to the 200-day simple moving average. This would be about a 12-1/2% swing trade from the featured date.
