Nothing triggered today. I am a long biased trader and all my stocks were long plays. Not comfortable with short swings yet,

Scouting this early week for longs... CRM - Strong stock corrected with market - looking at 143s to enter. Market should be in line for entry though. ARES & BAH - in strong uptrend, paused with market correction - looking for continuation SC - similair to ARES & BAH but more of a bear flag, sitting on a pivot - looking for continuation BERY & PTC still scouting reversal - has to gap up on volume with market co-operating ON WATCH - FND - strong earnings, 2 gaps to fill...

My PTC trade did not trigger, I look for gap up on strong volume.

Looking at PTC Long as a relief move if market cooperates

Having fun is the best approach. You will learn. When I look at the first few swing trades I posted at the beginning of my thread, I now see them and go what was I thinking?, you learn as you go. Best advice I ever received: go to market everyday and just survive keeping small losses, everything else you will learn and it will work out over time. You need to bide that time... so don’t be dejected.

I would not move stops and let things work. You really have to think I’m germs of risk reward and over several samples. I look at max loss in a single trade as 1%. Will move to 2.5% when more confident gradually. This is what I call 1R so currently that’s 1% of my working capital. You have to give it long term I was up 3.38 R, than down to 1.28r than now closing July with 4.61R which is 4.61% made mistakes and could have closed 6% or higher and if I use 2.5% as max loss, that would be a return of 15% for the month at which I could double my account compounded in 5 months.... there is juice in this stay with it for relatives, that’s the beauty of swing trading do your analysis at night, trigger your trades in 1st or last hour or on buy sell stop, put in stop loss and walk away..... next day take profit, loss or adjust stops....

Closed final 1/4 pics of NFG at 4R Total rerun of 2.75R although it reached 5R today but green is green

It’s 2 posts prior to the TSLA one. Here is the image

Saw this last night but missed the beautiful morning star candle patter. TSLA gave a good move. Freaked out by the fed meeting tomorrow and already in NFG....

Holding 1/4 position with B/E stop overnight. Don’t like the volume. Should have taken all out at EOD. will see tomorrow and take early profits due to Fed meeting.

I stopped on HRB for a 1R loss. Today I initiated a Long position on NFG. This is a relief move, I think we should see 47.5... Entry at $46.14 with a stop of $0.34 adjusted to 1R position size I exited 1/2 on 2 R, and 1/4 on 3R profit - the balance of 1/4 is at B/E SL. Booked 1.75 R with 1/4 at BE Hard Stop

Hi @JenniferL you are welcome - I use Finviz for filters primarily and Tradingview for analysis. My 2 Go to filters are price moving over 20 MA and other one is the a hook, like the one I am posting on NFG next. I also use volume, Trendlines and gaps...

Stopped out on BMY with Brian. - 1.1 still in HRB. came close to stop. Tomorrow ahluld love higher due to BA and markets. No charts as I am travelling.

Also entered BMY with Brian's Alert today, although I entered at 44.45 not 44.32 like him, stop remains the same 44.05 - adjusted position size accordingly:

Went long HRB again betting on this "Pull back" in strong uptrend. Entered Long $28.34 with a $0.35 SL adjusted to 1R position size. Concerned that today it could not pop over 20 MA home-base, will watch carefully tomorrow, if it convincingly conquer 20MA, than I am out... It sort of jumped off the 50 MA on the 15th of July... First target should be $29.10 @Brian Pez
