Quick morning. Knew FB was thing to be one to watch this week. Price gapped through weekly 1s and was moving hard so I jumped on 1 on the 1 min chart. Tried to reenter and gave a little back. Think I had a little FOMO.
Going to be watching this one like a hawk next week. Double inside week. Trade THE STRAT
Really shouldn't have taken this one due to not being focused, and not having a lot of time. Had a bit more drawn down than I like but came out with profit. The STRAT rocks
This was a quick, ten minute trade. The entry can be seen on multiple timeframes.
So after a go at TGT for a small gain I'm back at INTC and Im taking it the other way. Watching it close due to lack of time continuity. Need to figure out how I can pin point the runners. I getting the moves I want, except they are small. Have been doing good with risk management though.
So wanted to show a trade that I took for a breakeven.Thought INTC would fill the morning gap after a 1, inside 5 min bar. I was up about 25% but quickly went against me. Can best be seen on the 5 min chart
Trade I made this morning. My option selection was too far OTM. Don't be cheap! Kicking myself for missing TWTR, but hey its AAPL, easier long bias.
Here is another trade. This one is a 312, Chicago. 3 bar then a 1 on the hourly followed by a 2. One thing to be aware of is today is an inside day, a one, so don't get chopped up.
Here's another trade with Rob Smith's THE STRAT So this one was a no brainer. Personal Notes: What I'm noticing as I trade more with THE STRAT is my lack of patience. I tend to jump in early, or ignore what higher time frames are doing. Also I like Rob's philosophy on risk management. "If it doesn't do what you want get out." When trading the THE STRAT a move...
Have been trading THE STRAT by Rob Smith and it's awesome. Here is a trade I'm currently in. Maybe jumped in a little early but going well so far.
I have been learning about THE STRAT by Rob Smith. Wanted to share a trade I made using this method. It is still open at this time. If my method is off please let me know. Time continuity: Although the daily shows red we were actually green on most timeframes. Had an inside on the daily and 60. Waited on the break of an inside 15 and took the trade at 61.40....
Still a little worried about this one. Didn't stick to my rules and kind of jumped into it without proper DD. Haven't traded BAC in awhile. Pulled up the 5 min chart and saw that there was a gap to be filled and the price had started to move in that direction. Jumped in early; should have waited for more of a comfirmation that it's going to fill the gap. I want...
On the hr I saw the gap, and the rejection of it from last week. 5 min showed me a spike in volume so I took a trade. First target it is $12.10, but been practicing holding on to winners so we will see. Put will we watching SPY. Don't trust this market.
Is it just me or was this open really low in volume?! Don't like that.
Took a call debit spread today in CSCO. Showed up one one of my TOS scanners this morning. This is what I saw: Daily: Has been trending up, higher highs, lower lows. I also noticed the fractal formed on the 20th. My entry was below it but was looking for that cross. 1HR: More fractals formed along the $45.80 area. Also on the 26th and 27th there was a nice...
Post a trade I'm still in earlier today. Mentioned directional volume as one thing I was looking for. Still holding but really don't like that sell off.
As always please let me know why my idea is garbage. Seems like most people are thinking SHORT for the market. And while I would believe that they are right I wanted to give an alternative idea. So news is bad, yet we still haven't seen the drop everyone is expecting. Why is that?! The dip last week was bought and the Market Makers seem like they aren't ready...
As always, idk what I'm doing. Just want to save this idea for the future. Let's see how it plays out. Let me know if you think I am way off base, or don't know anything. RSI headed south while price still moving up slowly. Will the MMs fill that gap next week only to push it up again? Looks like MMs averaged down in price earlier this week. May happen again...
