lordy… are you on redbull? so many trades so quickly
this widely-CNBC-anticipated ‘market correction’ of 7 s&p points is really brutal. i fully expect some kind of govt action over the weekend. this can’t continue. fortunately, i have my mandarin phrase book, so i’ll be okay.

Mr. Ca,
Can you please tell me what broker you use?
I am also curious… not happy with mine.
-1% for today. 100% cash. Gotta protect your gains if there is multiple trade failures. Getting ready form y LA flight.
It’s probably been mentioned by others, but keep WRES on your radar. Nice long consolidation flag since may.
Bought ENER $14.56
John, what real time charting software do you use? Is there any free real time services out there?
i use http://www.freestockcharts.com, its pretty good but it can get a little laggy during the day.
I recommend freestockcharts.com
-free
-realtime
-customizable
You won’t be dissapointed 🙂
thanks guys
VVTV 2.83
Bought CSIQ 15.49
Bought LDK $11.31
No Jaso this time?
CA,
What are you targets on ENER and CSIQ?
If you like WRES, take a look at GST.
Guess it looks decent. Building a bull flag it seems and could get going with continued strength in oil
However the stock is too illiquid for me at least.
adding nvax
ESLR ready
lol i rememeber when ENER was $85, and everybody was saying it was going to go to 100 in a few days.
Bought CAR $8.12/125/1

I can’t be posting day trades anymore. It’s too much effort and it’s cutting my time.
Up +0.1 or 0.2%, I think
that would be greatly missed laddie…perhaps you can reconsider…
how do you decide which stocks you’ll day trade? how do you start your scan everynight, do you use daily, hourly, or minute charts to set up your resistance/support? I just need a kickstart and learn how to scan for my daily btfo charts
ESLR
come on arm get some volume
there she goes
good call
thanks man, just trying to learn from the best!
out arm 5.07
Extremely nice! Did you considering holding your winning pick with a tight stop till the close, or did you sell to raise cash? Since my cash gets locked up for 3 days on an IRA stock buy, once I make a decision to sell I almost always set a tight stop for the day and enjoy some of the ride if it’s still there or get stopped out at my profit mark.
I really don’t know when to sell yet, I’m still learning, I don’t think I had the proper strategy on this one (my target wasn’t set) the 50 week moving average was $5 dollars so I didn’t think it would move much past that (obviously I was wrong there, this thing grew legs), oh well missed out on 10%, try again next time
I’ll be adding some swings near the close.
sold half NVAX 3.58
CA- pick..BPOP on the move again
I went to a Chinese restaurant a few days ago, and Microsoft got stuck with a bad fortune!

oh well,
sold VVTV 2.94
Anyone have some advice on placing stops for swing trades? Right now I would place my stops at the last pivot point but sometimes the spread is a bit larger and I can’t get a large enough position. Do any of you use the 15 or 20 day MA for placing a stop? So for example, if you bought ARM right now, where would you place your stop and why? I would put mine at $3.50 because there is some good support there before the breakout but my position would just be a bit smaller then. Any thoughts would be welcomed. Thanks!
ARM….KILLIN IT!!
ABAT…LOOKING BULLISH AGAIN

Who bought GNBT a couple of days ago ? its like a dead body
NCS 2.80 2.88 swing
jesus, is HGSI about to bust upwards again?
I will be adding several swings. Hold on.
you the man!
You guys were not kidding. Freestockcharts.com is the shit. I can’t believe it’s free.
TODD, freestockcharts.com is bad ass…plus its FREE!!!
If you open up a Schwab brokerage account, you get free access to their StreetSmart Pro Realtime platform. I personally like it….or you can download the TOS desktop platform for free.

And SQNM.
Final.
Have a good weekend everyone. I’ll be in LA.
what % ?? so NO cash??
OK, get ready for a really stupid, newbie question.
I’ve been trying to get more knowledgeable about technical analysis so I have been following this blog as well as others on ibc. I bought a book on how to read candlestick charts (Japanese Candlestick Charting Techniques by Steve Nison… really good book) which has helped a lot. My question is what do the red candlesticks represent? I understand hollow and black or red and green candles, but I don’t understand hollow, black and red candles on the same chart such in the SOMX chart.
I know this has got to be a stupid question.
Go easy on yourself man, there’s a lot to learn. Let me see if I can help.
I use Red and White candles and this is how they work.
Hollow White = candle closed higher than it opened, and also higher than the previous candles close
Solid White = candle closed lower than it opened, but still higher than that previous candles close
Hollow Red = candle closed higher than it opened, but still below the previous candles closed
Solid Red = candle closed lower than it opened and also lower than previous candles close
Look at a 3 month daily on F it has a good mix of solid and hollow candles.
