This Market is For Closers Only

Higher interest rates is bullish thing for certain banks. With the yield curve getting “curvier”, I like HBAN, KEY and CMA.

The market is soft this morning, but who knows how it will play out. Every dip has been a buying op. But, not all stocks are going up anymore. On weak days, 75% of stocks trade lower, making it much harder to bank coin off swing trades. Most people get frustrated and over-trade tapes like this. I’ve always found it to be useful to “stop trading” when the tape gets convoluted. My style of trade is not conducive with day trading, even though I can do it as good as anyone. But I need to take down big positions in liquid stocks, which is hard to do in a stock that’s gapping higher within a 2 hour window.

If this tape is hard for you, trade small and take some pointers from some of the talented day traders on the site: Ragin Cajun, Option Addict and Raul.

OVTI is exploding to the upside. I really like that name, evidenced by selecting it for my semi-managed GAPR index inside of The PPT. Using the algorithms and my opinions, I manage an index of growth stocks at a reasonable price (GARP), inside of The PPT, on a semi-annual basis. Year to date, it’s up almost 40%.

    For going on two years now I have managed to own, almost exclusively, things that lose money.
