    Nice, I’ll be tuned in tonight. Thursday could be the catalyst for a big move. We got a ridiculous line-up of earnings that day….GOOG, C, GS, IBM, AMD, CY, NOK, LUV, BAX, HOG, SWY

    looking forward to the show John! Just wondering if you have time to cover this topic: money/portfolio mgmt. How you size your positions? manage risk? scaling in and out? etc… thanks man!

    Wow, just checked in for a moment and noticed the insanity happening between /CL and /6E. Are these relationships going sour or is this just a temporary hiccup? Discuss.

    (you’ve touched on some of these in previous Q&As but not necessarily in great detail)
    Suggestion for a topic to discuss: if you like a BO setup, will you place a buy stop above resistance the night before or pre-market or only during trading hours? Do you have a preference and why?

    As a follow up question, after you buy a BO, for example, could you talk some more about your stops. In the past you’ve mentioned ‘where a stock closes’, do you usually base decisions to stay in or get out on a closing basis, even if support is breached intraday? Likewise, any additional info you provide on BO confirmation is always helpful?

    As per the health/direction of the market, do you still focus on XLF, XLE, XLB, etc. and new highs/lows, VIX, put/call ratio, etc. or have you incorporated NEW/additional metrics such as the US dollar, Bonds, Oil, XLF:SPY (ratio analysis), etc.?

    As Keith mentioned above, anything related to risk mgmt is great.

    In general, I think the repetitious nature of showing tons of examples of what you see and what you’re using to make decisions, will eventually help it ‘click’ with your readers.
    Thanks and I’ll be watching your vid tonight!

    Open forum: what do you guys like to do with regards to the above questions? Have you found anything that you’ve had consistent success/failure with?

    John,

    Just watched your previous video and enjoyed it very much. I am wondering if you could say something about how you would swing trade. I’m with the Profunds and have to stay in an index for at least a day. Would this restriction change how you look at set ups? Currently, I am figuring out the major stocks in each index, charting them and trying to guess during consolidation as a breakout might be exhausted by the time, I’m able to get in.

    Any thoughts would be appreciated.

      John,

      I don’t know if your last response was to me. But my question does not relate to a particular chart, but to how you would think about trading if you only wanted to trade an index or a stock at the most at the end of the day. In other word, how to think about set ups when you are not a day trader and can get in right on the break out or breakdown.

      Incidently, just watched you live and thought it was great!!

      Keep up the good work.

    Just watched the previous video, it was very eye opening.

    You warned us about penny stocks.
    Sorry if it’s a really dumb question, but… can you move the price on stocks?

    Tonight’s class was terrific– even better than last week’s. Nice having fewer charts. The teaching on entries and exits was perfect. (But the best moment was the money fanned over your whole face ::))

    Watching a big beautiful triangle forming on /CL from 7:05 this morning to the present. Coupled with a (messy) bull flag on the Euro, if i had to guess I would say /CL’s break will be positive. Resistance levels – and profit targets if I decide to take the trade – at 75.00, 75.15
