This is the one I have been tracking for some time.., interesting 23 days in uptrend, has see 9 Green consecutive. Forming a Bull Flag, Could go higher from here targeting recent highs.
Even though it keeps forming higher lows, of concern is the high volume on the pull back, so I am not biased only bullish, I would even look at the bearish break here.... will follow.

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.

4 hours ago, JenniferL said:Thank you so much for sharing your experience. I cannot tell you how much I appreciate your feedback. I am feeling quite dejected at the moment. I did not risk more than 1% on any trade, but now I can see how quickly one could be out of this altogether quite quickly. So happy that BBT emphasizes the importance of sim. Every loss teaches me so much.
One of the most important things I need to do is learn how to use DAS. The platform I am in right now does not have a good sim -no real time data, no retention of my trade data.
I really am having so much fun though -- there is so much to learn and test and adjust, and test again.
I do not have time to do any rigorous screening right now, so I will wait to take a trade until I can give it the attention it deserves. I imagined myself picking up some GE at $10.06 today (I watch it everyday) , and then just stalked it for 3 hours. If I had more experience, maybe I would have jumped on it. I am treating my sim account like real money. I need to have the emotions baked in when I go live.
Again, Nas, I really appreciate your taking the time to give me your input and your encouragement!
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....

Thanks Rob. I was not able to take this as I saw lots of good intraday opportunities last week. Some people did take this. One person took it at the channel bottom as it bounced off support and is up good on it.
