Live Alerts for Oil, Gold, Swing Trading, Day Trading, Bitcoin are now available by following specific alert Twitter feeds.

Disclaimer / disclosure: Every subscriber must read this disclaimer.

Private Capital Fund / Personal Trading Going Forward:

The private capital fund will bring slight changes.

The financing of our business build-out was planned to occur by way of either retail memberships, institutional memberships or private fund trading. The retail market is still early and slow on the uptake of the requirement toward #IA intelligent assisted trade (within six years our estimation is that most retails traders will all need it, but until then we’re not waiting and we’ll just be ready on the other side of that awareness curve). The institutional membership growth has been strong and to be sure we meet our growth trajectory goals (development completion timeline targets for launch of digital “intelligent assistance” #AI algorithm models) we are engaging the implementation of a private capital fund.

A few things of consideration:

  1. Following my trades is never condoned. Trade alerts are for the purpose of alerting awareness to something important occurring so that a member can form a thesis of trade and they are also for the purpose of learning when I win and win I fail. This (following trades) will be more difficult going forward because my frequency of trade will increase also.
  2. Trade Alerts. The trade alerts (swing and day) are not guaranteed at any time (in and/or out) however, it is important to note that with a much higher frequency of trade I will be alerting only those trades I expect to last a few hours or longer. If you ask me for targets or thesis type questions on the alert feeds or otherwise it is unlikely you will receive a response. Trade review videos will be posted for that purpose as required.
  3. Type of Trades. We will be trading the algorithm models (the seven we have), day trading and swing trading for the fund.
  4. Trade Sizing. When I alert to the trading room or on a feed I will be alerting the size only specific to the membership base trading. In other words, the size of trade in our private fund is not disclosed.
  5. ROI Objective. We are trading under the goal / target of returning 100% per month. 50% would be very good and 25% is the minimum goal. So at minimum we are looking for 25% ROI per month compounded over 24 months. The fund size and/ or members will not be disclosed.
  6. Term of Project. The term is 24 months (as mentioned above). It is a personal & stakeholder legacy fund / goal retirement project. Others we train as we progress will continue the legacy fund thereafter (as will they continue with our trading services at large).
  7. Trading Platform on Screen. You may see at times (when I am trading my small daytrading account) my actual IB trading platform on the screen. When I trade my accounts (any of them) they may or may not be connected to various other private fund accounts (at different percentages etc).
  8. Sizing Considerations. Because we are also trading a private fund, there will be trades we cannot take that I may otherwise take because the fund trade size will make it difficult for me to chip in and out of and other related liquidity issues.

Reporting and Next Gen Algorithms:

EPIC Oil $USOIL $WTI algorithm is now considered complete and ready for coding phase, Rosie Gold $GLD $GDX algorithm model is complete Gen 3 and has entered Generation 4 modeling (that is EPIC the Oil Algo level), $SPY, $SILVER and $DXY Generation 2 models and $VIX Gen 1 are delivered. $Bitcoin $BTCUSD #crypto was released Sept 1.

Trading Plan (Buy, Hold, Sell) and Watch Lists.

Morning Momentum / Gap / News / PR Stocks on Watch:  $AMD, $TXMD, $TOPS have premarket action. $AMD has positive news re: chips. Starting to look at cyber crime stocks – $VEEV etc.

Market observation / on watch:

US Dollar $DXY flat / up ish lately. Oil $USOIL $WTI has lift in recent days but in multi month sideways action (near highs now) and currently above an important resistance in model – short bias here but if it proves itself anymore in the model I would have to change that view, Gold / Silver in flat range – Gold intra day is trading at 1271.48 (I continue to warn that Gold especially is vulnerable), $SPY is moderate, $BTCUSD $XBTUSD came off on Sunday (likely fork related) – Monday morning session has been bullish and $VIX and moderate at 9.7.

Recent Momentum Stocks to Watch:

OTC on watch: 

Recent SEC Filings to Watch: 

Some Earnings On Deck: $AKCA $CAR $ETSY $GDDY $GEVO $PCLN $POLA $PTLA $QGEN $REN $RRGB $SLCA $SUPN $SWKS $TRIP $VERI $WTW $ZAYO $ZIOP

Recent / Current Holds, Open and Closed Trades:

New position in $WYNN going well, we got out of $SHOP swing right before it tanked, $FB going we close (that was a decent swing ROI), $SPPI swing trade I am holding, $DWT small swing trade position holding for now – watching oil close and $AAOI (our toughest trade all year) we are unfortunately holding in to earnings.

Previous recent trading position notes:

New position in $WYNN going well, we got out of $SHOP swing right before it tanked, $BTC trades going well, $FB going well and $AAOI we shall see in to earnings here ugh.

No trades Tuesday other than $XTBUSD.

Hold small $SNAP (win), holding $SPPI (YTBD), hold some $FB (win), $XBTUSD many trades & all wins (only thing we can claim that – we don’t lose), $AAOI underwater and holding waiting for a bounce for a double down, $SHOP holding and trimmed some (winning), Gold closed my short for a win, and oil no new position as of yet.

Out 99% of $SNAP for win, new swing in $SPPI in to earnings. Hold most of $FB swing for winning exits, $XBTUSD Bitcoin we have been winning of course and especially with most recent downturn and spiking yesterday (we bought all the way down and sniped off some on bounces) and $AAOI holding, $SHOP holding. In a tight oil trade premarket long and a swing in Gold short.

Yesterday killed Bitcoin and an oil scalp. Holding $AAOI, $SNAP, $SHOP.

Holding everything still… trimmed some $SNAP and keep winning on Bitcoin 100 x leverage 24 hours a day 7 days a week.

As above, Bitcoin has been an incredible trade for members and continues to be -100 x leveraged accts having huge gains in $XBTUSD, We have members knocking on the 1 Million door that will be interviewed on our podcasts soon. $AAOI is off 20% and I am holding, $SNAP and $SHOP I continue to hold. $SNAP has been great recently also.

On Monday I entered $SHOP wash-out set-up long near HOD (but I needed a confirmed strength so that’s the way it is) and I held overnight for a swing. Still holding $AAOI and $SNAP.

In overnight trade I got a really good trade long in Bitcoin related $XBTUSD 100x leverage swaps and called the pop in oil (expecting EPIC the Algo weekly target hits) just in time in the oil trading room but missed my personal entry because we are retooling (the new machines are here and being set-up).

$ROKU I closed near the top Friday for decent gains on that swing and hold $AAOI and $SNAP yet. I am also ina $XBTUSD (Bitcoin) swing from weekend trade.

My $ROKU play looks very strong in premarket – I have been warning shorts publicly and in room very specifically told members a number of times Friday could be very active to upside. I continue to hold $AAOI and it may be a loser that I will cut if it fails 200 MA on daily.

Yesterday I closed $ATEC flatish after scalping a win previous day and $VERI I closed at a loss. Still holding $SNAP, $AAOI and tiny $OMVS position.

First quarter was easy set-up trading, second quarter got a tad tighter and by third quarter many if not most charts were extended and now the rotation is like wack a mole so I am consolidating a master list of the best most predictable structurally sound charts and will just trade them until market sorts itself.

 

 

Recent Chart Set-ups on Watch:

If you are new to our trading service you should review recent blog posts, the Compound Trading YouTube Channel and at minimum our algorithm Twitter feeds because they do tell a story in terms of the market and how the inflections of the market determine our day to day trading. You will notice the algorithmic modelling has been undeniably accurate with many time-frames (intra-day, weeks and months out) so I myself have learned to respect their math (they have taken me from a 60% hit rate to 80%+ in my trading – all publicly posted live trades).

Momentum Stocks (Market Open and Intra-Day):

I do trade morning momo stocks, but I do avoid risk – so often I avoid the first 30 minutes (gap and go) and trade momentum stocks later in the day after the wash-out looking for a snap-back. Just prior to open and shortly after open I post momentum stocks to the trade chat room (and Twitter and Stocktwits if I have time).

Some of my Favorite Intra-day Trading Set-Ups:

(1) Momentum Stock Wash-Outs for Snap Back, (2) Bad News Wash-outs on Stocks with High Institutional Ownership, (3) Getting on the Right Side of a Trend Change and scaling in my position and (4) Our Algorithm Set-Ups.

The momentum stocks (from previous days and morning trade) I continue to watch through the day for indicators that allow a trade.

Morning Stock Watch-Lists for my Favorite Set-Ups:

(1) Pre-Market Gainers Watch-List:  $TOPS 43% $DCIX $GLBS $CERC $VBLT $SHIP $ONVO $EGLT $CNVCN $UGAZ $DRYS $NTES $AMD $MRVL $MTBC $HMNY

(2) Pre-market Decliners Watch-List : $TMUS $S $PYDS $TRXC $SKLN $CRNT $M $NVDA

(3) Other Watch-List:

(4) Regular Algo Charting Watch-List: Gold $GC_F $GLD, Miners $GDX ($NUGT, $DUST, $JDST, $JNUG), Silver $SLV $SI_F ($USLV, $DSLV), Crude Oil FX: $USOIL $WTI ($UWTI, $DWTI, $USO, $UCO, $CL_F, $UWT, $DWT), Natural Gas $NG_F ($UGAZ, $DGAZ), S & P 500 $SPY $ES_F ($SPXL, $SPXS), US Dollar Index $DXY ($UUP), Volatility $VIX ($TVIX, $UVXY, $XIV), $BTCUSD Bitcoin.

Study:

For new readers, a review of our unlocked posts on our blog would help you get in to the story we are following with the securities listed in this newsletter.

Free scanners to find momentum stocks that you can easily review charts of for indicators that bring probability of your trade being successful up considerably. These are not useful for first 30 minute market open gap and go type plays (you need a good momentum scanner, level 2, and best to have hot-keys for the first 30 mins of gap and go trading)… but are very useful for intra day scalping and swing trading (start with trending stocks and then look at indicators intra for simple set-ups – study scan study scan study scan).

#BitcoinTrading 101: A Beginner’s Guide to Getting Started $BTCUSD $XBTUSD $BTC

Crypto the AlgoBitcoin (BTC) Algorithm (Crypto)

Introduction.

This year we’ve seen Bitcoin soar up more than 700% YTD and find its’ way out of the “Silk Road” obscurity and into the minds and portfolios of some of the biggest players on Wall Street. Naturally, you want in on these mind boggling returns – but when you log into the trading platform you have been using for years, you realize you can’t find $BTCUSD, $XBTUSD or any Bitcoin-linked equities on the traditional markets. You give your broker a call and they are no help, so you do a quick google search and find a million different articles telling you which Bitcoin exchanges are the best. After reading a few, you realize many of these are out of date, and most of them are simply advertisements written by the creators of the exchange and disguised as informational articles. There is information overload and you don’t know who you can trust when it comes to these exchanges. That is where most people give up, trying to answer the seemingly simple question: “how do I get started?”

Finally, we have a simple answer for you. This step by step guide will show you exactly how to set up an account with a safe, credible Bitcoin exchange so you can start trading as soon as possible. Depending on how you choose to fund your account, you can be trading in as little as 30 minutes!

Why Trust Us?

We have no affiliation whatsoever with any Bitcoin exchange. The exchanges featured in this post are only featured because we have personally used them with success, or one of our Bitcoin trade room members uses them and has given good feedback. Along with that, we have done extensive research into these exchanges before suggesting them to anyone. The goal of this post is to save you the time and trouble of doing that research so you can just start trading.

Exchanges:

The exchanges we use and trust are Coinbase, Bitstamp and Gemini. Each has their own advantages/disadvantages that I will list below. We also use the BitMEX exchange to trade leveraged Bitcoin derivative contracts. Please be aware that BitMEX has residency restrictions listed in their terms of service agreement. I would suggest reading over the terms of service before beginning to use any of these exchanges to ensure compliance. 

What you need to know:

CoinBase: Coinbase is a U.S. based exchange that is great for those who want easy, quick sign up and the ability to buy Cryptocurrencies to hold as a long term investment/store of value. However, there are some fundamental flaws that keep it from being the best option for active traders.

Pros

Cons
  • Instant verification (< 10 minutes)
  • Instant funding via debit/credit card
  • BTC, LTC or ETH available
  • Free access to Coinbase’s “vault” (multisig storage wallet) to protect your coins.
  • Trusted – No history of fraud or incompetence.
  • No minimum deposit
  • Settles in USD
  • Terrible for actively trading
    • Little to no trading platform setup
    • High fees (1.5% on some transactions)
    • Lagging price/long settlement times
    • No stop/limit orders
  • Deposit/funding limits
  • No margin trading

Bitstamp: Bitstamp is a E.U. based exchange with good liquidity and an easy to use trading platform that is good for both active traders and long term investors. Our original $BTCUSD model was built on a Bitstamp chart. I highly recommend Bitstamp for those who cannot trade on a leveraged platform such as BitMEX.

Pros

Cons
  • Trusted, regulated, bank backed.
  • No history of fraud or security issues.
  • Good liquidity
  • Intuitive trading platform with stop/limit orders available.
  • Low fees on trades and deposits/withdrawals (< 1%)
  • No minimum deposit
  • Debit card available for instant access to your funds (Not available for U.S. customers however)
  • Settles in USD
  • Slightly longer verification process
    • Requires ID and proof of residency
    • Processed in 24-48 hours generally
  • Withdrawals can take 5+ days for those outside of the E.U.
  • No margin trading

Gemini: Gemini is a U.S. based exchange that is regulated by the New York State Department and like Bitstamp, has an intuitive trading platform that works well for both active traders and long term investors alike.

Pros

Cons
  • Easy to set up
  • Intuitive trading platform
    • Limit buy/sell orders available
  • Good liquidity
  • Strong security
  • Good customer service
  • Low, percentage based trading fees
  • No fees for deposit
  • Settles in USD
  • No stop loss orders
  • BTC and ETH only
  • Not available in all U.S. States
  • Charts not available on tradingview yet
  • No margin trading

BitMEX: BitMEX is a Seychelles based cryptocurrency derivatives trading platform whose most popular product is their $XBTUSD Bitcoin/USD inverse perpetual swap contract. BitMEX is a traders dream – brilliantly designed and well thought out platform offering 100x leverage with tons of liquidity. There is nothing else out there like it.

Pros

Cons
  • Quick and easy account setup (<30 seconds)
  • No verification required.
  • Extremely low trade fees (.075%)
  • Up to 100x leverage
  • Great, customizable platform for traders
    • Stop orders, limit orders, trailing stops, stop limit orders·
  • Tons of liquidity
  • Settles in XBT
  • Nearly instant Bitcoin deposits
  • $1 USD minimum deposit
  • Top of the line security
  • Open API
  • Not available in the U.S.

 The Fastest Way to Get Started (That I’ve Found, at Least): Coinbase + BitMEX 

  1. Go to coinbase.com (Sign up through this link to get a bonus $10 worth of Bitcoin). If you go through this link, your screen will look like this:

2. Enter your first name, last name, email address and a password to create your account.

3. Verify your email address by clicking the link in the email sent by Coinbase. It should bring you to a screen that looks like this:

4. Choose “individual” and click next.

5. Enter your phone number for two factor authentication and click next.

6. Enter the code sent to your phone to finish creating your account. It should bring you to a screen that looks like this:

7. Find the “complete your account” section toward the bottom left of the page. Click on “verify your identity”. This menu will pop up:

8. Upload a picture of your preferred ID. Verification should happen in less than 5 minutes.

9. Choose a payment method to fund your account. The fastest is Credit/Debit card – you can purchase Bitcoin instantly this way, but only $300 at a time to start. If you want to start off with more, you can buy up to $10,000 using a bank transfer.

10. Go to bitmex.com and click “register”. This screen should come up:

11. Enter an email address, password and name then click register.

12. Confirm your email address by opening the link sent by BitMEX.

13. Open the “account” tab and click deposit.

14. Copy your BitMEX wallet ID then reopen Coinbase.

15. On Coinbase, click the accounts tab then under “BTC wallet” click send:

16. Paste your BitMEX wallet ID into the space. Make sure you double check that it is the correct wallet ID, then click send.

Your deposit should show up in BitMEX within 30-45 minutes and you are ready to trade! This can be done with any of the exchanges I mentioned above (not just Coinbase) however I used Coinbase for the example because their verification and funding is the fastest/easiest.

Hopefully this post helps answer your questions regarding how to get into trading Bitcoin and Cryptos in general. If you still have questions feel free to contact us on Twitter @CompoundTrading or @CryptotheAlgo

Peace and best everyone,

Swing Trading Updates Nov 3 $IBB, $AAPL, $WMT, $AMD, $JKS, $FEYE, $LACDF, $CTSH, $NVO, $SNAP, $TSLA ….

Swing TraderSwing Trading, , , , , , , , , , ,

Good Morning Swing Traders and Welcome to the Compound Trading Swing Trade updates Friday November 3, 2017. $IBB, $AAPL, $WMT, $AMD, $JKS, $FEYE, $LACDF, $CTSH, $NVO, $SNAP, $TSLA, $AMMJ and more …  

Email us at [email protected] anytime with any questions about any of the swing trades listed below. Or, if we get bogged down private message Curtis in trade room or direct message him on Twitter. Market hours are tough but we endeavor to get back to everyone after market each day.

Notices:

Good morning!

This report (1 of 5 in rotation) focuses on some of the more recent stocks we have added to our swing trading set-up coverage. They include; $TSLA, $SNAP, $VGX, $AAU, $AMMJ, $AGN, $CTSH, $IBB, $FEYE, $LACDF, $PCRX, $EWZ , $JKS. $RCL, $LTBR and newer yet $WMT Wallmart, $AMD Advanced Micro and $AAPL Apple coverage.

We are going to categorize our coverage soon because we are following more than we expected when we first started the service..

When managing your trades with the weekly reports keep in mind that you will have to invest an hour or two a week to check the indicators mentioned for buy and sell triggers. I was asked recently why we do not usually (although we do sometimes) include precise entry and exit points. The reason is simple, they don’t work – those services have terrible results.

Swing trading success, even with a service, does require “some” maintenance on the part of the user, although the new live alert service will take much of that burden off the user as we know many of our users have busy lives. It is the indicators lining up that signal a trade long entry or an exit. In our case rely heavily on MACD on daily or weekly (or Stoch RSI and Moving averages) but indicators we are basing our trade entry and exits on are listed with each trade so any user that does even moderate trade management will know when the indicator(s) have turn with or against the trade.

Intra-week you can always DM myself on Twitter or email with specific questions regarding trades you are considering for assistance. But it is critical that you attend to the maintenance of your signals at least once a week if not twice and set stops and preferably alarms so that intra-week you can enter or exit. If nothing else you can always book some coaching time and I’ll assist also (although we are at a point of waiting list for the coaching, at minimum you can get on list or for immediate help as I said please DM or email).

IF WE DON’T GET BACK TO YOU RIGHT AWAY it is usually because we are pressured with deadlines or are trading.

Also, as live charts are made available below, click on link and open viewer. Then to use chart yourself click on share button at bottom right (near thumbs up) and then click “make it mine”.

April 13, 2017 – We decided to add $SNAP to our coverage because some of our clients have asked us to cover it, plain and simple. So the challenge is that it does not have the history we like, so we have charted it on hourly for now. This is considered a high risk trade.

Welcome to the morning Wall Street trading day session at Compound Trading!

Notices:

Notes in red text below are new comments entered specifically today.

Today’s Live Trading Room Link:

http://compoundtrading1.clickmeeting.com/livetrading

Live Alerts for Oil, Gold, Swing Trading, Day Trading, Bitcoin are now available by following specific alert Twitter feeds.

Disclaimer / disclosure: Every subscriber must read this disclaimer.

Private Capital Fund / Personal Trading Going Forward:

The private capital fund will bring slight changes.

The financing of our business build-out was planned to occur by way of either retail memberships, institutional memberships or private fund trading. The retail market is still early and slow on the uptake of the requirement toward #IA intelligent assisted trade (within six years our estimation is that most retails traders will all need it, but until then we’re not waiting and we’ll just be ready on the other side of that awareness curve). The institutional membership growth has been strong and to be sure we meet our growth trajectory goals (development completion timeline targets for launch of digital “intelligent assistance” #AI algorithm models) we are engaging the implementation of a private capital fund.

A few things of consideration:

  1. Following my trades is never condoned. Trade alerts are for the purpose of alerting awareness to something important occurring so that a member can form a thesis of trade and they are also for the purpose of learning when I win and win I fail. This (following trades) will be more difficult going forward because my frequency of trade will increase also.
  2. Trade Alerts. The trade alerts (swing and day) are not guaranteed at any time (in and/or out) however, it is important to note that with a much higher frequency of trade I will be alerting only those trades I expect to last a few hours or longer. If you ask me for targets or thesis type questions on the alert feeds or otherwise it is unlikely you will receive a response. Trade review videos will be posted for that purpose as required.
  3. Type of Trades. We will be trading the algorithm models (the seven we have), day trading and swing trading for the fund.
  4. Trade Sizing. When I alert to the trading room or on a feed I will be alerting the size only specific to the membership base trading. In other words, the size of trade in our private fund is not disclosed.
  5. ROI Objective. We are trading under the goal / target of returning 100% per month. 50% would be very good and 25% is the minimum goal. So at minimum we are looking for 25% ROI per month compounded over 24 months. The fund size and/ or members will not be disclosed.
  6. Term of Project. The term is 24 months (as mentioned above). It is a personal & stakeholder legacy fund / goal retirement project. Others we train as we progress will continue the legacy fund thereafter (as will they continue with our trading services at large).
  7. Trading Platform on Screen. You may see at times (when I am trading my small daytrading account) my actual IB trading platform on the screen. When I trade my accounts (any of them) they may or may not be connected to various other private fund accounts (at different percentages etc).
  8. Sizing Considerations. Because we are also trading a private fund, there will be trades we cannot take that I may otherwise take because the fund trade size will make it difficult for me to chip in and out of and other related liquidity issues.

Reporting and Next Gen Algorithms:

EPIC Oil $USOIL $WTI algorithm is now considered complete and ready for coding phase, Rosie Gold $GLD $GDX algorithm model is complete Gen 3 and has entered Generation 4 modeling (that is EPIC the Oil Algo level), $SPY, $SILVER and $DXY Generation 2 models and $VIX Gen 1 are delivered. $Bitcoin $BTCUSD #crypto was released Sept 1.

Master Class Charting Series Webinars:

All members received a copy in their email inbox as we progress. Full series will be posted to website at a cost of 2999.99. Early adopter members receive it free.

Attendees to next Master Classes being held in Dominican, Columbia and Panama attendees will receive 50% credit to off-set travel costs. Limited space FYI. Looks like a master class will happen in Columbia Jan 2018 – will advise.

Trading Plan (Buy, Hold, Sell) and Watch Lists.

Morning Momentum / Gap / News / PR Stocks on Watch: 

Market observation / on watch:

US Dollar $DXY flat / up ish lately. Oil $USOIL $WTI has lift in recent days but in multi month sideways action and currently above an important resistance in model – short bias, Gold / Silver continuation moderately to the buy side and did bounce as I said it would but it will drop at resistance on model (I continue to warn that Gold especially is vulnerable), $SPY as always in Fed fix mode with a bit of a squeeze on Friday, $BTCUSD $XBTUSD up 212% ish on the last trading round – couldn’t be better and $VIX off and moderate at 9.8 as I predicted through earnings.

Recent Momentum Stocks to Watch:

OTC on watch: 

Recent SEC Filings to Watch: 

Some Earnings On Deck: $CAKE $CLVS $CTRP $CZR $EXEL $FB $FEYE $FIT $GLUU $GPRO $HABT $HIIQ $JUNO $PXD $QCOM $QDEL $QRVO $RAIL $RIG $SGMS $SHAK $TSLA $WMB $YELP

Recent / Current Holds, Open and Closed Trades:

New position in $WYNN going well, we got out of $SHOP swing right before it tanked, $BTC trades going well, $FB going well and $AAOI we shall see in to earnings here ugh.

Previous recent notes:

No trades Tuesday other than $XTBUSD.

Hold small $SNAP (win), holding $SPPI (YTBD), hold some $FB (win), $XBTUSD many trades & all wins (only thing we can claim that – we don’t lose), $AAOI underwater and holding waiting for a bounce for a double down, $SHOP holding and trimmed some (winning), Gold closed my short for a win, and oil no new position as of yet.

Out 99% of $SNAP for win, new swing in $SPPI in to earnings. Hold most of $FB swing for winning exits, $XBTUSD Bitcoin we have been winning of course and especially with most recent downturn and spiking yesterday (we bought all the way down and sniped off some on bounces) and $AAOI holding, $SHOP holding. In a tight oil trade premarket long and a swing in Gold short.

Yesterday killed Bitcoin and an oil scalp. Holding $AAOI, $SNAP, $SHOP.

Holding everything still… trimmed some $SNAP and keep winning on Bitcoin 100 x leverage 24 hours a day 7 days a week.

As above, Bitcoin has been an incredible trade for members and continues to be -100 x leveraged accts having huge gains in $XBTUSD, We have members knocking on the 1 Million door that will be interviewed on our podcasts soon. $AAOI is off 20% and I am holding, $SNAP and $SHOP I continue to hold. $SNAP has been great recently also.

On Monday I entered $SHOP wash-out set-up long near HOD (but I needed a confirmed strength so that’s the way it is) and I held overnight for a swing. Still holding $AAOI and $SNAP.

In overnight trade I got a really good trade long in Bitcoin related $XBTUSD 100x leverage swaps and called the pop in oil (expecting EPIC the Algo weekly target hits) just in time in the oil trading room but missed my personal entry because we are retooling (the new machines are here and being set-up).

$ROKU I closed near the top Friday for decent gains on that swing and hold $AAOI and $SNAP yet. I am also ina $XBTUSD (Bitcoin) swing from weekend trade.

My $ROKU play looks very strong in premarket – I have been warning shorts publicly and in room very specifically told members a number of times Friday could be very active to upside. I continue to hold $AAOI and it may be a loser that I will cut if it fails 200 MA on daily.

Yesterday I closed $ATEC flatish after scalping a win previous day and $VERI I closed at a loss. Still holding $SNAP, $AAOI and tiny $OMVS position.

First quarter was easy set-up trading, second quarter got a tad tighter and by third quarter many if not most charts were extended and now the rotation is like wack a mole so I am consolidating a master list of the best most predictable structurally sound charts and will just trade them until market sorts itself.

Recently closed off $ARRY decent and entered $ATEC and $VERI yesterday. Still holding $SNAP, $AAOI, and a tiny $OMVS position.

A tad concerned about $AAOI as Applied Optoelectronics $AAOI Stock Rose, Cardinal Capital Management Lowered Its Stake by $2.73 Million …

Yesterday was good. Re entered $ARRY and it looks good. Added to $AAOI and took some off later in day for a profit. Lots of plays in and out of now – market is in much better shape.

I trimmed some positions yesterday and added some ($CUR, $ARRY, $VERI, $AAOI) and I’m active in Bitcoin $XBTUSD right now and looking at oil bias short and Gold trading soon (and miners). Review video when posted for details.

Last week on the Bitcoin dump we entered the Bitcoin fray with a buy of Bitcoin, since then on Monday I entered $XBTUSD (am looking for a move up and adds over time – it has an area of resistance to work through – but the MACD on the daily may be about to turn up here and that would be big – $GBTC on OTC play I am considering with China scenario) and trimmed some $ARRY. Still holding $ARRY and $SNAP and have some very small other positions.

Friday was an excellent trading day. Accounts all up on the day about 5%.

Review on $WTI, $SNAP, $ARRY and $TVIX trade in Mon and Tues mid day videos. Last night I took a quick oil scalp small and got a paper cut in a Gold short.

Friday I went long $ARRY $SNAP and hedged with $TVIX (which is getting hammered premarket). Also in Oil in overnight trade with the smaller position accts flat at time of post and large account positions a tad underwater on it. But the chart is on my side (risk – reward).

Closed that $AMBA trade for a small loss and the most recent oil trade from last report for a win.

Thursday no trades other than closing $MSFT overnight for small profit.

Yesterday was choppy and I nailed an oil scalp in overnight trading. In $MSFT yesterday on daytrade and swing side, in $CUR on daytrade side still and holding $UUP on swing trading side still.

Yesterday I had wins intra in $XIV and shorting $TVIX. also had an overnight hold in $CUR that is yet to be determined.

$XIV, $ARWR, $PETS wins on Thursday. On Wednesday oil $WTI big win and $PETS and $AMD on daytrade small account build yesterday.

Yesterday I closed $UWT daytrade for small win, large oil trade for win, small Gold trade for win and small loss in $TVIX. Recently $XIV I closed in premarket for small gain, still holding some position from previous, $UGLD (closed in premarket July 31 small gain), $FEYE (closed for nice gain), $SRG (closed for nice gain), $NFLX (closed for huge gain), $IPXL (closed for gain), $AKCA (closed nice gain), $MCRB (closed small gain), $WMT (closed excellent gains), $UUP (closed small loss), $BWA (closed tiny loss), Holding: $XIV and new entry $AMMJ. All other holds are small size (less than 4% of day trading account on total) holds in this order according to sizing: $ONTX, $SSH, $LGCY, $TRCH, $ESEA, $LIGA (all not including select swing trading or algorithm charting trades).

Recent Chart Set-ups on Watch:

I am adding $ONTX to my short term watch… it has its 200 MA and is in a bull formation. $BABA, $BBRY. $GBTC, $AAOI, $FIT, $FSLR, $JKS, $FEYE $LACDF, $CTSH, $NVO, $TSLA, and $AAMJ. $NLNK and $PI are recent chart set ups – $GPRO for possible break out on chart and recent new includes $SNAP and $ARRY – $ARWR, $CDNA, $XXII, $SHOP (wash-out), $SENS, $HCN, $GTHX, $EDIT, $IPI, $XOMO, $MBRX, $PDLI, $LPSN and more that can be reviewed on You Tube videos or on weekly Swing Trading reports.

See other mid day charting trade set-up reviews on You Tube. The set-ups are key to success if you’re swing trading (even daytrading).

We are working on these (if listed) and others in Mid Day Review in trading room. If you can’t be in there you can catch the review on the raw video feed we post to You Tube of each trading day. Many of the mid day reviews are published “private” for members only so be sure to watch your email inbox for these among other member only videos.

Market Outlook:

As per Monday note – soft at start and likely revs up as week progresses.

If you are new to our trading service you should review recent blog posts, the Compound Trading YouTube Channel and at minimum our algorithm Twitter feeds because they do tell a story in terms of the market and how the inflections of the market determine our day to day trading. You will notice the algorithmic modelling has been undeniably accurate with many time-frames (intra-day, weeks and months out) so I myself have learned to respect their math (they have taken me from a 60% hit rate to 80%+ in my trading – all publicly posted live trades).

Momentum Stocks (Market Open and Intra-Day):

I do trade morning momo stocks, but I do avoid risk – so often I avoid the first 30 minutes (gap and go) and trade momentum stocks later in the day after the wash-out looking for a snap-back. Just prior to open and shortly after open I post momentum stocks to the trade chat room (and Twitter and Stocktwits if I have time).

Some of my Favorite Intra-day Trading Set-Ups:

(1) Momentum Stock Wash-Outs for Snap Back, (2) Bad News Wash-outs on Stocks with High Institutional Ownership, (3) Getting on the Right Side of a Trend Change and scaling in my position and (4) Our Algorithm Set-Ups.

The momentum stocks (from previous days and morning trade) I continue to watch through the day for indicators that allow a trade.

Free scanners to find momentum stocks that you can easily review charts of for indicators that bring probability of your trade being successful up considerably. These are not useful for first 30 minute market open gap and go type plays (you need a good momentum scanner, level 2, and best to have hot-keys for the first 30 mins of gap and go trading)… but are very useful for intra day scalping and swing trading (start with trending stocks and then look at indicators intra for simple set-ups – study scan study scan study scan).

Crypto the Bitcoin Algorithm Newsletter 31 Oct. 2017 $BTCUSD $XBTUSD $BTC $BITCF $BTCS $BTSC $GBTC #Bitcoin

Curt MelonopolyBitcoin (BTC) Algorithm (Crypto)

Crypto the Bitcoin Algorithm Newsletter Tuesday October 31, 2017  #Bitcoin $BTCUSD $XBTUSD $BTC $BITCF $BTCS $BTSC $GBTC

Hello! My name is Crypto the Bitcoin Algo. Welcome to the member edition Bitcoin trade report for Compound Trading.

Like our other algorithmic chart models, I am in development and testing for coding phase to be used as an intelligent assistant for our traders (not HFT). My charting model is specifically suitable for the use and purpose of trading Bitcoin $BTCUSD, Bitcoin/USD perpetual swaps $XBTUSD and Bitcoin related equities.

Note: The model for $BTCUSD is built on a chart from the Bitstamp exchange. The $XBTUSD model is built on a chart from BitMEX. Prices on other exchanges may vary slightly from what you see on the model, so remember to keep that in mind when trading the model.

Notices: 

  • Sorry for the delay in reporting this week – I have been sick the last few days but feeling better now. Thanks everyone for the patience and well wishes. 
  • Our team has been killing it in the discord room! Awesome to see that coming together. 
  • There is some significant resistance above the current area of trade. I am expecting either a breakout or pullback coming up soon. Details listed below. 
  • Join us in our private Crypto Trading room on discord! Curt, Sartaj and I have been team trading as well as posting TONS of supplemental charting in there. 
  • We have been trading $XBTUSD (BTC/USD Inverse perpetual swap contracts) on BitMEX.
    • $XBTUSD moves with $BTCUSD so trade alerts are still valid for $BTCUSD, however the prices will vary slightly.
  • Welcome our lead trader to the platform! You will now be receiving alerts from Curt as well as myself.
  • You can read my blog post about how to trade Bitcoin here. I will post an update with more information about BitMEX as soon as I can.
  • 24 hour trade room on discord is gaining traction – A few things to keep in mind going in:
    • Curt, Sartaj and I will be #TeamTrading this in a very serious way.
    • #TeamTrading is key in a 24-hour room like this. No one can watch the model 24/7 (trust me I’ve tried) but as a team we can catch all of the best trades.
    • To make this work we need an orderly chat room, full of highly functioning people, all trading together.
    • In Curt’s words, the accuracy of the model plus the margins on Bitcoin combined with #TeamTrading will take this thing from Compound Trading to “uber quantum leap compound trading.” If done right, our ROI will be absolutely astronomical.
    • We will have a private Discord room for Cryptocurrency trading as well. I plan to use the voice channel to enhance our #TeamTrading and I hope many of you will join me in there.
    • As always, don’t hesitate to DM me on twitter (@reedshermanator) if you have any questions, comments, concerns, etc.

Primary Methods of Trade: 

Live Twitter Alert Feed for Bitcoin Trades: @BTCAlerts_CT

The primary method of trade we have found works with the most predictability is to wait for bitcoin to breach the upper right wall of a quadrant (the orange or grey diagonal dotted lines – the thicker orange lines are more significant) and confirm over the next horizontal Fibonacci resistance. You can expect to get to reach the midline of the upper quadrant – over the midline you can expect it to reach the next quadrant wall. Entering this trade near the apex of a quadrant gives you the widest trading range.

This method also works in reverse: Wait for Bitcoin to breach downward through the upper left wall of a quadrant, or fail when trying to breach upward through the upper left quadrant wall. Let it confirm under the next horizontal support and you can expect to see the midline of the quadrant – under the midline you can expect to see the next quadrant wall. Same as above, entering this trade near the apex of a quadrant gives you the widest trading range.

Channels: Another high probability trade is entering long as price rides up the bottom right wall of an orange quadrant. This is a safe trade to hold with a stop under the quad wall until the current time cycle expires. This trade works in reverse as well. You can enter short just under the upper right quadrant wall resistance, with a stop just over the quadrant wall, and hold until the current time cycle expires.

Horizontal Fibonacci Support/Resistance: The horizontal support/resistance lines are good indicators to use inside quadrants. The light green 0.5 Fibonacci line and the grey 1.0 or 0 fibonacci levels (midlines) are the most significant. Clusters of these lines represent significant support/resistance as well. Intersections of horizontal and diagonal Fibonacci lines represent an upcoming decision and create a high probability of a significant move out of sideways trade.

Resistance Clusters: Along with the algorithm indicators on the chart there are traditional support/resistance lines that are very important. When these lines converge volatility tends to increase. Under the cluster is a high probability short. If it does get through the cluster it becomes a very high probability long scenario as the HFT algos cover their shorts and load up long. The most recent cluster corresponded with the run over $3,000 to all time highs.

Targets: Red circles on charting. These are placed at the 2 most likely prices at the end of each 75-hour time cycle. These are still in very early stage of development/testing and should be used for observation only at this point. Two are provided for each quadrant time frame – the upper scenario targets should be considered if the trend is up and likewise for the lower. Only one is expected to hit on each time cycle. These targets have been less predictable with the recent market volatility. I do not recommend entering trades based on these targets.

Natural Support/Resistance: Natural support/resistance is represented on the chart by purple horizontal lines. Although generally reliable, these are not a great indicator in the current area of trade because they rely on history, and Bitcoin lacks that history over $3,000. The recent pullback has helped solidify natural support/resistance lines in the model. There are some significant natural resistance areas forming in the chart. Thicker natural resistance lines on the chart are the most significant. 

Conventional Charting: In the last newsletter, I said that we have had success using some of our conventional indicators. That has not changed – however, we have refined our system and cut out most of the lagging indicators. The conventional indicators we have been using are:

  • The 20, 50, 100 and 200 MA’s on all timeframes
  • Conventional trendlines
  • Conventional natural support/resistance

$BTCUSD: https://www.tradingview.com/chart/BTCUSD/CkZlmvRM-Crypto-the-BTC-algo-updated-charting-18-47-17-EST-31-Oct-2017/

$XBTUSD: https://www.tradingview.com/chart/XBTUSD/Ej07wUry-Crypto-XBT-updated-charting-18-49-15-31-Oct-2017/ 

In summary, our first generation Bitcoin algorithm chart model uses the following indicators (listed from most predictable to least in terms of win rate): 

  1. Trading range created by long term algorithmic modeled quadrant support and resistance (orange dotted lines)
  2. Trading range created by short term algorithmic modeled quadrant support and resistance (grey dotted lines)
  3. Directional channels formed by long term algorithmic modeled support and resistance
  4. Horizontal Fibonacci support and resistance (multi-colored horizontal lines)
  5. Conventional Natural support and resistance (purple horizontal lines)
  6. Long term conventional trend lines (red diagonal lines)
  7. Conventional MA’s 

Observations in the current area of trade:

$BTCUSD has established quad wall support on the daily chart. Over the next quad wall I would expect it to start gapping up:

$BTCUSD appears to have found a new upchannel following last week’s correction: 

$BTCUSD upcoming time/price cycle and targets/decision points:

$BTCUSD up against conventional trendline resistance – last time it failed at this resistance we saw a somewhat significant correction:

$XBTUSD conventional charting shows current area of trade:

$XBTUSD appears to have established a new upchannel following last week’s correction: 

$XBTUSD daily quadrants show quad wall and midline established as support: 

$XBTUSD up against significant conventional trendline resistance. I am expecting either a breakout or pullback very soon. My bias is still long for the time being:

$XBTUSD last time this trendline was tested a correction followed:

 

 

More Examples of High Probability Trades in the Model: 

  • Below is a textbook example of the highest probability trade in the model (break of the upper right quad wall). Trades like this are repeatable and extremely predictable in the model.

  • Below is an example of a trade over a resistance cluster (and break of the quad wall). Notice the huge volume when the resistance cluster is breached. I went long on new candle over the quad wall/resistance cluster, added over the midline and exited at the upper quad wall.

  • Below is a trade using both the large orange quadrants and the smaller grey quadrants. First trigger is breach of the (shared) quad wall, then confirmed over the midline in the small quad. Struggled a bit with the next quad wall (I use tight stops when playing the smaller quadrants) but eventually got to my target at the midline.

 

  • Although the targets are still in very early development phase, we did get a direct target hit down to the second on August 22. Also a good example of a short opportunity as it enters the quadrant from the upper left and loses its mid line. Then another good long opportunity as it enters the small quadrant through the lower left wall, shown by the white arrows:

  • I’m not on the short side too often, but I will do it when the upper left quad wall is breached to the downside. Another high probability trade in the model, this one live tweeted:

 

  • The best ROI comes when trade moves between quadrants, but we can do some intraday scalping off the quad wall too.

  • And another live tweeted win on the break of a quad wall:

Welcome to the Compound Trading Weekly Swing Trading Stocks for Tuesday Oct 31, 2017. $TAN, $WYNN, $NFLX, $AXP, $TWLO, $VRX, $GSIT. $ABX, $XME, $URRE, $RIG, $XLE, $SLX, $X. 

Email us at [email protected] anytime with any questions about any of the swing trades listed below. Or, if we get bogged down private message Curtis in trade room or direct message him on Twitter. Market hours are tough but we endeavor to get back to everyone after market each day.

Notices:

This report is 1 of 5 in rotation..

We will categorize our coverage soon as we are following more stocks weekly than we expected when we first started the service.

When managing your trades with the weekly reports keep in mind that you will have to invest an hour or two a week to check the indicators mentioned for buy and sell triggers. I was asked recently why we do not usually (although we do sometimes) include precise entry and exit points. The reason is simple, they don’t work – those services have terrible results.

Swing trading success, even with a service, does require “some” maintenance on the part of the user, although the new live alert service will take much of that burden off the user as we know many of our users have busy lives. It is the indicators lining up that signal a trade long entry or an exit. In our case rely heavily on MACD on daily or weekly (or Stoch RSI and Moving averages) but indicators we are basing our trade entry and exits on are listed with each trade so any user that does even moderate trade management will know when the indicator(s) have turn with or against the trade.

Intra-week you can always DM myself on Twitter (@curtmelonopoly), visit me on Discord (http://discord.gg/2HRTk6n) or email me ([email protected]) with specific questions regarding trades you are considering for assistance.

It is critical however that you attend to the maintenance of your signals at least once a week if not twice and set stops and preferably alarms so that intra-week you can enter or exit. If nothing else you can always book some coaching time and I’ll assist also (although we are at a point of waiting list for the coaching, at minimum you can get on list or for immediate help as I said please DM or email).

IF WE DON’T GET BACK TO YOU RIGHT AWAY it is usually because we are pressured with deadlines or are trading.

Oct 31 – Trading 198.10 with MACD turned down above all MA’s on daily. On watch for MACD turn up and decision.

Sept 13 – Trading 185.40 bounced off 50 MA on daily since last report. MACD is now up, SQZMOM up but Stoch RSI peaking. Will assess when Stoch RSI bottoms and turns again.

Aug 18 – Trading 166.10. Indicators all pointing down and sitting on natural support. Waiting for indicators to turn.

Aug 7 – Trading 180.46 after its post earning’s break out. MACD turned down and will wait for it and other indicators to turn up before considering an entry.

July 24 – Closed premarket 188.40 from 158.20. Will watch for a re-enter pending some ER considerations early this week. Sentiment is pensive imo. Could go either way in market – generally speaking.

July 12 – Trading 158.20. Will watch here over its 50 ma and if 20 ma is about to breach 50 with price above and other indicators line up I will alert an add.

July 5 – Trading 146.17. Long from 159.35 200 shares on the 26th of June. Unfortunately thats where it turned down and now MACD is near bottom. 200 MA however is at 135.35 and that is possible. Understand that when I take an entry it is normally no more than 1/5 sizing until a trade proves itself out so I can usually take the down draft if required.

June 26 – Trading 158.33.

$NFLX pull back may be over MACD could cross up with SQZMOM and Stoch RSI trend up.On watch and I may take a long entry in premarket today.

May 3 – April 25 148.40 Long 500 shares April 25 when MACD turned up per below. Trading 156.28. MACD trending up, SQZMOM trending up and Stoch RSI at top and may come off short term – so a short term turn down is possible here. Will likely re-add when STOCH RSI comes off and turns back up as long as MACD is trending up still and has room to top.

April 24 – Trading 142.87. Watching.

April 19 – Trading 143.75 – waiting for MACD to turn up.

$NFLX Live chart with indicators https://www.tradingview.com/chart/NFLX/ozKJQ8t4-NFLX-March-29-we-entered-swing-trade-145-50-when-MACD-turned-t/

March 27 – MACD has been flat or turned down since last post. Looking close at MACD turn up and entry this week.

March 20 – The only thing that concerns me is the price staying above approximately 145.05 as a low on any given day. I may also look for that in addition to indicators lists below. Same thing with this one, exit when MACD turning down. Chances are high I will enter long early week.

July 5 – Trading 85.10. Trading in 52 week break out straight price action with no end in site so I can’t justify an entry, however, if I was managing trades on a minute by minute basis these are good to try and keep a short leash on. Anyway, waiting for a pullback to assess.

June 26 – Trading 82.22. Indicators are starting to cool a bit on daily – waiting for a pull back turn.

June 18 – $AXP Testing 52 week highs near break out stoch RSI peaking MACD trend up and SQZMOM trend up. Bullish. This is a break out play and I may enter a 1/5 size and add at pull back. Watching the 20 MA breaching 50 and 100 ma’s and vol spike. Very bullish.

May 3 – Trading 79.54. Holding long while MACD trends up and price above entry and 20 MA is above 50 MA. Stoch RSI is coming off so we expect some downward pressure short term.

April 24 – Trading 79.63. Long 78.01 500 shares April 20 when MACD turned up. Watching for MACD, Stoch RSI to remain, and SQZMOM to turn green for possible add.

July 25 – Trading 30.99 testing 200 MA from underside with ER in 23 days. Very interesting set-up developing here now. On Watch.

July 14 – Trading 28.16 and 200 MA is getting near overhead so it could be ready sometime moderately soon.

July 5 – Trading 28.97. Now indicators pointing down. Not an easy stock to read. Watching.

June 26 – Trading 30.00 in premarket. All indicators are turned up but I just don’t trust the chart without historical. The alert below on June 9 turned out positive I just couldn’t execute.

June 18 – Trading 26.87 With MACD on daily turned up and testing natural resistance. Turns out per below it was a decent short term long. Unsure.

June 9 – Trading 25.49 The indicators on the 60 min say you could go long with a decently strong thesis (not enough chart history for Daily or Weekly chart), however, considering the short history price action I will wait – I think it is accumulating and the chart possibly repairing.

June 9 – Trading 134.73. MACD turned up on 7th and it got the pop we were thinking would come. Watching for follow through and possible long today. On high watch also.

May 31 – Trading 126.30  Watching for MACD to turn up.

May 23 – Trading 125.11. Watching for set up.

May 17 – Trading 126.91 coming up on underside of 200 MA test on weekly. MACD on daily is about to cross up. Will wait for MACD on daily and assess.

May 9 – Stopped flat on May 5, 2017. Watching SQZMOM, Stoch RSI, MACD, volume indicators now for a turn.

May 3 – Trading 125.55. Long 122.56 April 25 when MACD turned up (per below) and watching for continuation in MACD and price. Will exit if MACD turns down or price hits our entry. We may even add. It looks good.

April 24 – Trading 114.89. Watching.

April 19 – Trading 115.95. MACD trending down. Waiting for bottom and turn up. It has a ways to go.

April 10 – Closed 500 shares Friday 117.20. Trading 116.50. Watching MACD, Stoch RSI, SQZMOM for reset at bottom and turn for re-entry.

April 4 – We triggered a stop at flat March 27 and had a re-entry at 111.04 when we looked at it again for 500 shares. Currently trading at 116.00 and we are watching MACD.  Which is currently at top. We may exit as MACD turns down and re-enter when MACD turns back up. Alternatively we may ride the MACD turn down as long as our original entry isn’t triggered as stop and when MACD turns back up add to position. Both are valid and we are undecided.

March 26 – We took a long position at 110.93 for 500 share start on March 21. HOWEVER, we have a stop at our entry price (due to current market sentiment) and it is currently trading at 111.92. Careful with this one.

Notices:

Notes in red text below are new comments entered specifically today.

Today’s Live Trading Room Link:

http://compoundtrading1.clickmeeting.com/livetrading

Live Alerts for Oil, Gold, Swing Trading, Day Trading, Bitcoin are now available by following specific alert Twitter feeds.

Disclaimer / disclosure: Every subscriber must read this disclaimer.

Private Capital Fund / Personal Trading Going Forward:

The private capital fund will bring slight changes.

The financing of our business build-out was planned to occur by way of either retail memberships, institutional memberships or private fund trading. The retail market is still early and slow on the uptake of the requirement toward #IA intelligent assisted trade (within six years our estimation is that most retails traders will all need it, but until then we’re not waiting and we’ll just be ready on the other side of that awareness curve). The institutional membership growth has been strong and to be sure we meet our growth trajectory goals (development completion timeline targets for launch of digital “intelligent assistance” #AI algorithm models) we are engaging the implementation of a private capital fund.

A few things of consideration:

  1. Following my trades is never condoned. Trade alerts are for the purpose of alerting awareness to something important occurring so that a member can form a thesis of trade and they are also for the purpose of learning when I win and win I fail. This (following trades) will be more difficult going forward because my frequency of trade will increase also.
  2. Trade Alerts. The trade alerts (swing and day) are not guaranteed at any time (in and/or out) however, it is important to note that with a much higher frequency of trade I will be alerting only those trades I expect to last a few hours or longer. If you ask me for targets or thesis type questions on the alert feeds or otherwise it is unlikely you will receive a response. Trade review videos will be posted for that purpose as required.
  3. Type of Trades. We will be trading the algorithm models (the seven we have), day trading and swing trading for the fund.
  4. Trade Sizing. When I alert to the trading room or on a feed I will be alerting the size only specific to the membership base trading. In other words, the size of trade in our private fund is not disclosed.
  5. ROI Objective. We are trading under the goal / target of returning 100% per month. 50% would be very good and 25% is the minimum goal. So at minimum we are looking for 25% ROI per month compounded over 24 months. The fund size and/ or members will not be disclosed.
  6. Term of Project. The term is 24 months (as mentioned above). It is a personal & stakeholder legacy fund / goal retirement project. Others we train as we progress will continue the legacy fund thereafter (as will they continue with our trading services at large).
  7. Trading Platform on Screen. You may see at times (when I am trading my small daytrading account) my actual IB trading platform on the screen. When I trade my accounts (any of them) they may or may not be connected to various other private fund accounts (at different percentages etc).
  8. Sizing Considerations. Because we are also trading a private fund, there will be trades we cannot take that I may otherwise take because the fund trade size will make it difficult for me to chip in and out of and other related liquidity issues.

Trading Plan (Buy, Hold, Sell) and Watch Lists.

Morning Momentum / Gap / News / PR Stocks on Watch: $JCP wash out

Market observation / on watch:

US Dollar $DXY flat / up ish lately. Oil $USOIL $WTI has lift in recent days but in multi month sideways action and currently very near an important resistance in model, Gold / Silver continuation moderately to the sell side but likely to bounce soon (I continue to warn that Gold especially is vulnerable), $SPY as always in Fed fix mode with a bit of a squeeze on Friday, $BTCUSD $XBTUSD off a bit over night but up big yesterday to new all time highs and $VIX up a bit and moderate (ready for the Fed smash down).

Last time Gold did this- near never! See notes on Trading View chart. XAUUSD GLD GC_F https://www.tradingview.com/chart/GOLD/dVnFELUt-Last-time-Gold-did-this-near-never-See-notes-XAUUSD-GLD-GC-F/ …

Some Earnings On Deck: 

Recent / Current Holds, Open and Closed Trades:

Trades have been light with the exception of $XBTUSD…. but I expect that to change this week with the setups in play.

Previous recent notes:

No trades Tuesday other than $XTBUSD.

Hold small $SNAP (win), holding $SPPI (YTBD), hold some $FB (win), $XBTUSD many trades & all wins (only thing we can claim that – we don’t lose), $AAOI underwater and holding waiting for a bounce for a double down, $SHOP holding and trimmed some (winning), Gold closed my short for a win, and oil no new position as of yet.

Out 99% of $SNAP for win, new swing in $SPPI in to earnings. Hold most of $FB swing for winning exits, $XBTUSD Bitcoin we have been winning of course and especially with most recent downturn and spiking yesterday (we bought all the way down and sniped off some on bounces) and $AAOI holding, $SHOP holding. In a tight oil trade premarket long and a swing in Gold short.

Yesterday killed Bitcoin and an oil scalp. Holding $AAOI, $SNAP, $SHOP.

Holding everything still… trimmed some $SNAP and keep winning on Bitcoin 100 x leverage 24 hours a day 7 days a week.

As above, Bitcoin has been an incredible trade for members and continues to be -100 x leveraged accts having huge gains in $XBTUSD, We have members knocking on the 1 Million door that will be interviewed on our podcasts soon. $AAOI is off 20% and I am holding, $SNAP and $SHOP I continue to hold. $SNAP has been great recently also.

On Monday I entered $SHOP wash-out set-up long near HOD (but I needed a confirmed strength so that’s the way it is) and I held overnight for a swing. Still holding $AAOI and $SNAP.

In overnight trade I got a really good trade long in Bitcoin related $XBTUSD 100x leverage swaps and called the pop in oil (expecting EPIC the Algo weekly target hits) just in time in the oil trading room but missed my personal entry because we are retooling (the new machines are here and being set-up).

$ROKU I closed near the top Friday for decent gains on that swing and hold $AAOI and $SNAP yet. I am also ina $XBTUSD (Bitcoin) swing from weekend trade.

My $ROKU play looks very strong in premarket – I have been warning shorts publicly and in room very specifically told members a number of times Friday could be very active to upside. I continue to hold $AAOI and it may be a loser that I will cut if it fails 200 MA on daily.

Yesterday I closed $ATEC flatish after scalping a win previous day and $VERI I closed at a loss. Still holding $SNAP, $AAOI and tiny $OMVS position.

First quarter was easy set-up trading, second quarter got a tad tighter and by third quarter many if not most charts were extended and now the rotation is like wack a mole so I am consolidating a master list of the best most predictable structurally sound charts and will just trade them until market sorts itself.

Recently closed off $ARRY decent and entered $ATEC and $VERI yesterday. Still holding $SNAP, $AAOI, and a tiny $OMVS position.

A tad concerned about $AAOI as Applied Optoelectronics $AAOI Stock Rose, Cardinal Capital Management Lowered Its Stake by $2.73 Million …

Yesterday was good. Re entered $ARRY and it looks good. Added to $AAOI and took some off later in day for a profit. Lots of plays in and out of now – market is in much better shape.

I trimmed some positions yesterday and added some ($CUR, $ARRY, $VERI, $AAOI) and I’m active in Bitcoin $XBTUSD right now and looking at oil bias short and Gold trading soon (and miners). Review video when posted for details.

Last week on the Bitcoin dump we entered the Bitcoin fray with a buy of Bitcoin, since then on Monday I entered $XBTUSD (am looking for a move up and adds over time – it has an area of resistance to work through – but the MACD on the daily may be about to turn up here and that would be big – $GBTC on OTC play I am considering with China scenario) and trimmed some $ARRY. Still holding $ARRY and $SNAP and have some very small other positions.

Friday was an excellent trading day. Accounts all up on the day about 5%.

Review on $WTI, $SNAP, $ARRY and $TVIX trade in Mon and Tues mid day videos. Last night I took a quick oil scalp small and got a paper cut in a Gold short.

Friday I went long $ARRY $SNAP and hedged with $TVIX (which is getting hammered premarket). Also in Oil in overnight trade with the smaller position accts flat at time of post and large account positions a tad underwater on it. But the chart is on my side (risk – reward).

Closed that $AMBA trade for a small loss and the most recent oil trade from last report for a win.

Thursday no trades other than closing $MSFT overnight for small profit.

Yesterday was choppy and I nailed an oil scalp in overnight trading. In $MSFT yesterday on daytrade and swing side, in $CUR on daytrade side still and holding $UUP on swing trading side still.

Yesterday I had wins intra in $XIV and shorting $TVIX. also had an overnight hold in $CUR that is yet to be determined.

$XIV, $ARWR, $PETS wins on Thursday. On Wednesday oil $WTI big win and $PETS and $AMD on daytrade small account build yesterday.

Yesterday I closed $UWT daytrade for small win, large oil trade for win, small Gold trade for win and small loss in $TVIX. Recently $XIV I closed in premarket for small gain, still holding some position from previous, $UGLD (closed in premarket July 31 small gain), $FEYE (closed for nice gain), $SRG (closed for nice gain), $NFLX (closed for huge gain), $IPXL (closed for gain), $AKCA (closed nice gain), $MCRB (closed small gain), $WMT (closed excellent gains), $UUP (closed small loss), $BWA (closed tiny loss), Holding: $XIV and new entry $AMMJ. All other holds are small size (less than 4% of day trading account on total) holds in this order according to sizing: $ONTX, $SSH, $LGCY, $TRCH, $ESEA, $LIGA (all not including select swing trading or algorithm charting trades).

If you are new to our trading service you should review recent blog posts, the Compound Trading YouTube Channel and at minimum our algorithm Twitter feeds because they do tell a story in terms of the market and how the inflections of the market determine our day to day trading. You will notice the algorithmic modelling has been undeniably accurate with many time-frames (intra-day, weeks and months out) so I myself have learned to respect their math (they have taken me from a 60% hit rate to 80%+ in my trading – all publicly posted live trades).

Momentum Stocks (Market Open and Intra-Day):

I do trade morning momo stocks, but I do avoid risk – so often I avoid the first 30 minutes (gap and go) and trade momentum stocks later in the day after the wash-out looking for a snap-back. Just prior to open and shortly after open I post momentum stocks to the trade chat room (and Twitter and Stocktwits if I have time).

Some of my Favorite Intra-day Trading Set-Ups:

(1) Momentum Stock Wash-Outs for Snap Back, (2) Bad News Wash-outs on Stocks with High Institutional Ownership, (3) Getting on the Right Side of a Trend Change and scaling in my position and (4) Our Algorithm Set-Ups.

The momentum stocks (from previous days and morning trade) I continue to watch through the day for indicators that allow a trade.

These are not useful for first 30 minute market open gap and go type plays (you need a good momentum scanner, level 2, and best to have hot-keys for the first 30 mins of gap and go trading)… but are very useful for intra day scalping and swing trading (start with trending stocks and then look at indicators intra for simple set-ups – study scan study scan study scan).

Rosie Gold Algorithm Model Update Sun Oct 29 $GC_F $XAUUSD $GLD $UGLD $DGLD $GDX $NUGT $DUST

RosietheAlgo GLDRosie the Gold Algo Chart Report, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

Rosie the Gold Algorithm Model Charting Update Sunday October 29, 2017 #GOLD $GC_F $XAUUSD $GLD, $UGLD, $DGLD with Miners Observations: $GDX, $GDXJ ($NUGT, $DUST, $JDST, $JNUG)

Good day! My name is Rosie the Gold Algo. Welcome to my new member edition Gold trade report for Compound Trading.

Like EPIC our Oil Algorithm chart model, I am an algorithm chart model in development and trader testing for coding phase to be used as an intelligent assistant for our traders (not HFT). My charting model is specifically suitable for the use and purpose of Gold and Gold Miner related.

The charting models are best used decision to decision. In other words, each line on the algorithmic model charts are support and resistance related. As trade progresses, weighing algorithmic charting model against conventional charting observations provides an edge over using only conventional charts.

If you need assistance at anytime contact my developers at [email protected].

Updates:

The charting below for Gold now has prospective channel support and resistance, considerable wider time frame quad walls highlighted (thicker orange dotted lines) and key channel decision areas noted with purple arrows.

How to Use the Charting Model:

How to Use ROSIE Gold Algorithm: #GOLD, $GLD, $XAUUSD, $GDX, $GDXJ, $NUGT, $DUST, $JNUG, $JDST

Primary Trade Indications:

Live Twitter Alert Feed for Gold / Miner Trades: @GoldAlerts_CT

The primary method of trade our traders are reporting works with the most predictability is to wait for Gold to breach the trading range (grey lines marked with arrows) up or down and then have it confirm as it leaves the corresponding trading quadrant to the up or downside. See video above.

As it is a model in development, if you find more predictable methods please report same.

Resistance and Support Clusters: Blue and Yellow horizontal (may be sloped) lines (marked with arrows). The thicker they are the more significant they are. Blue are conventional indicators and Yellow are calculated historical algorithmic points of significance. If the cluster is significant our charting techs will shade the area in white to bring this to your attention. The most recent cluster has proven to be significant resistance in recent trade.

Trading Range: Grey Lines (marked with grey arrows). Trade above or below creates bias and bias is confirmed to a high probability when trade then leaves a quadrant (geometric diamond shape formed with diagonal Fib trend lines for time – frame) after gaining or losing a trading range horizontal support / resistance line (grey horizontal line).

Quadrants: Diagonal Orange Lines that form diamond shapes. Based on diagonal Fibonacci trend lines act as important support and resistance. The wider the time frame the thicker the line.

Channel Decisions: Purple arrows note critical uptrend and downtrend channel decisions.

Fibonacci Support and Resistance: Horizontal lines on charting (various colors).

Targets: Red circles on charting. The least of the indicators and should be used for observation purpose only. The targets are in very early stage development / testing. Two are provided for each quadrant time frame – the upper scenario targets should be considered if trend is up and likewise for the lower. Only either are expected to hit (if at all – very low probability of a hit is expected at this point).

Conventional Charting: All decisions should be weighed against conventional charting (as may be provided below also).

Conventional Charting Considerations:

Last time Gold did this- near never! See notes. XAUUSD GLD GC_F

https://www.tradingview.com/chart/GOLD/dVnFELUt-Last-time-Gold-did-this-near-never-See-notes-XAUUSD-GLD-GC-F/

MACD on Gold -0.22% daily chart was an excellent buy sell trigger until just recently.

Check out the chart… the MACD has been for a long time an excellent buy and sell trigger. It has returned an excellent ROI -1.52% .

Price discover in Gold -0.22% has all but disappeared on the last year and now the MACD turns up and then what’s new is it turned right back down at the bottom of the range.

That is as we call it in technical land… totally divergent and a very bad sign.

Gold -0.22% is still above 200 MA but I wouldn’t want to be bullish and all in here. It could bounce but I wouldn’t bet the farm folks. Go easy long here. Run the test on the 200 ma with caution long.

The Gold miner charting is in very early development but we do expect considerable improvement over coming weeks and not months. Our target date sometime late 2017. For now the quadrants have produced some indication for trading and the fibs have been useful.

For this report there is no note-able change in the charting below.

Recent / Historical Reporting for Perspective:

Let’s Review.

The chart below was used to guide our traders through symmetrical trade extensions (white arrows) assisted by Fibonacci levels (various horizontal), previous conventional support and resistance points of reference (purple) and algorithmic model quadrants support and resistance (blue) and algorithm calculated support and resistance key points (yellow). The chart also includes some notes. This charting called the low months in advance and the recent high months in advance. It was integral to our traders success.

So in summary, our first generation Gold algorithm chart model uses the following indicators (listed from most predictable to least in terms of win rate):

  1. Algorithmic prediction of wide time frame lows and highs (proprietary algorithmic calculations).
  2. Algorithmic modeled quadrant support and resistance (blue horizontal lines)
  3. Algorithmic calculated support and resistance based on historical trade (yellow horizontal lines).
  4. Symmetrical extension expectations (white arrows).
  5. Conventional Fibonacci support and resistance (various horizontal lines).
  6. Conventional historical support and resistance (purple horizontal lines).
  7. Conventional moving averages. 20, 50, 100 and 200 MA.

The Second Generation Chart Modeling Uses a More Advanced Algorithmic Quadrant Model (based on Fibonacci) and Weighed Against Historical Trade.

You will notice on the chart below diamond shaped patterns. Theses represent lower time-frames than the blue support and resistance lines above represent for wider time-frame quadrants. The way trade reacts to the tighter time-frames is critical and takes some understanding and experience. Our traders will be publishing videos on the subject for our members going forward. Please note, if you are familiar with how oil trades between the same type of quadrants on EPIC’s charting… this is identical. The bottom line… all lines are support and resistance decisions and the time-cycles are when each quadrant area expires. The quadrants are available on all time-frames but the represented time-frames below are most widely used.

The chart below adds;

1: 60 min time cycle quadrants represented in orange diagonal dotted lines. These are critical to trade and you will find they will act as significant support and resistance decisions.

Also, 2: along with them are the horizontal grey lines – they, as with EPIC charting become significant support and resistance.

If you consider the seven indicators above plus the two below there are then nine indicators of support and resistance decisions that each will act as support and resistance in their own manner. This is where time, experience and training come in. Our lead trader will (as noted above) provide regular webinars / videos on the subject.

Although many inflections of trade occur within each quadrant, one of the main to consider is that price regularly moves toward the quadrant apex, inverse apex and either side apex. Also of importance is that trade often becomes more volatile when leaving / entering a quadrant and also as trade nears the middle (widest range) part of a quadrant.

Our plan going forward is to provide low frame quadrant charting for our traders. We first want to provide training for the charting to date and give our traders a few weeks with this development. Expect regular training webinars to be announced over the coming days.

Also of note, we have a model for $GDX we will add to this report in the coming weeks.

For now, the obvious trade considering the quadrant above is for price to chase the lower inverse apex on the chart terminating July 18, 2017 at approximately 1184.00 on the chart (your attention should be given to the 1071.00 approximate figure below in the conventional charting). This is not however absolute. The regular reporting will keep you up to date with our bias considering model trade.

Your short term overhead resistance is 1220.29 (grey horizontal) and your support is 1204.79 (blue horizontal fib) and then of course the quadrant wall (diagonal orange dotted).

Wider range there is significant resistance at 1228.14 (blue) and significant support at 1185.58 (yellow). These are areas our traders take advantage of trade support and resistance (blue and yellow horizontal support and resistance). You will find these two indicators to provide your best ROI because of predictability. The quadrants add a dynamic that otherwise would not be there, but the wider time frame critical support and resistance are where a trader can size in considerably.

Below are some conventional Gold and $GDX charting considerations also for consideration and should be given weight to your trade.

EPIC the Oil Algorithm Chart Report Sunday October 29, 2017 (Member Edition). FX: $USOIL $WTIC – $USO $CL_F $UWT $DWT $UCO $SCO $ERX $ERY $GUSH $DRIP

Welcome to my new FX: $USOIL $WTI oil trade report. My name is EPIC the Oil Algo and I am one of six Algorithmic Charting services in development at Compound Trading.

NOTICES: 

New members to the oil room – please onboard in a way that best equips you to be profitable. Visit my Twitter feed (@EPICtheAlgo) and review tweets over the last few months (there are posts on there such as my profit and loss ledger, time cycle expiry, target hits, links to important videos and more), visit our blog and review my recent blog posts, our you tube channel has “how my algorithm works”, “how to use my charting” and weekly EIA report videos and our website explains how I was developed. Review of those points of reference will increase your chance of success considerably. Some recent examples are below:

MULTI-USERS: Institutional / commercial platform now available.

PATENT PHASE: I am now in patent application phase. Stay tuned for agreements concerning disclosure and use coming to members.

SOFTWARE: My algorithmic charting is going to developer coding phase early 2018 for our trader’s dashboard program. Please review my algorithm development process and about my oil algorithm story on our website www.compoundtrading.com and my oil algo charting posts on my Twitter feed and this blog.

HOW MY ALGORITHM WORKS: I am an algorithm in development. My math is based on traditional indicators (up to fifty at any given time each weighted on win ratio merit – all not shown on chart at any given time) – such as simple math calculations relating to price and volume, Fibonacci, simple pivots, moving averages, Gann, Schiff and various other charting, geometric and mathematical factors. I do not yet have AI or Geo Political integration – only math as it relates to traditional indicators with the primary goal being probabilities. I am not a high frequency robot type algorithm – I am represented on and used on a traditional trading chart as one would normally use as a probability indicator. The goal is to provide our trader’s with an edge when triggering entries and exits on trades with instruments that rely on the price of crude oil.

Below you will find my simplified view of levels that can be used on a traditional chart (both intra-day and as a swing trader or investor). This work, and associated trade, should be considered one decision at a time, “if this happens then this or this are my targets”… price – trigger – trade and so on. Questions to; [email protected], message our lead trader on Twitter, or message a lead trader in the trade room.

October 29, 2017

The first most predictable trade are the significant resistance clusters formed by red trend lines (see previous posts and supplemental conventional charting below).

The second most predictable trade (Wide trading range primary resistance and support). Upper algorithmic model wide trading range resistance (grey arrow – grey horizontal line) at approximately 54.56 in the current trading range. Lower algorithmic model wide trading range support (grey arrow – grey horizontal line) at approximately 50.97 in the current trading range – these areas are general support and resistance areas (our algorithm uses a .15 – .20 cent buffer on either side for these trades).

Third most predictable trade (support and resistance of uptrend or down trend channels). On the chart an upward trending trade channel is presented and a downward option (channel support and resistance / trading range is represented as diagonal dotted orange lines and purple arrows – as mad available, assist in displaying directional trade decision areas).

Fourth most predictable trade (support and resistance of 30 min quadrants). The diagonal lines make up quadrants (in this instance on a 30 min chart) and are represented as diagonal lines that make up geometric diamond shapes.

Fifth most predictable trade (support and resistance of most applicable Fibonacci) the Fib support and resistance lines are the horizontal lines in various colors with the exception of purple and yellow (see below).

Sixth most predictable trade (support and resistance of historical support and resistance) Natural / historical support and resistance lines shown in purple or yellow – they represent historical support and resistance. The strongest of the historical support and resistance lines are shown in yellow horizontal and are typically accompanied by a yellow arrow marker.

Seventh most predictable trade signal we use are the time and price targets (red circles). When trade is in a significant uptrend or downtrend the targets become very precise and move up the indicator priority list quick.

Current and more recent trade is not conducive to target predictability. Oil trade has been in a sideways trading range for months and as a result the targets on Tues, Wed and Fri are not as predictable as they would be in strong uptrends or downtrends.

The Tues, Wed and Fri algo targets for the next week of trade are represented on the chart and are considered a moderately LOW probability hit. There are targets represented in the upward and downward channel choices (representing scenarios for up or down channels).

The Eighth most predictable trade is intra-day. You will notice on some of the charting geometric shapes in green on some of my charting (at times). They are charted live in the trading room and at times the lead trader will highlight these areas intra with white outlines (typically geometric shapes such as diamonds or triangles).

Wide Trading Range – Swing Trading:

Trade the ranges noted above (47.40 – 50.97 or 50.97 – 54.46 and above 54.56 – 57.13) between the thick grey lines (grey arrows) for the most predictable swing trades.

Conventional Charting Observations: 

Diagonal Trend Lines:

Diagonal trend-lines are critical inflection points (currently represented in red below on our conventional charting).

Please review many of my recent posts so you can learn about how important these diagonal trend-lines are. If one is breached you can look to pull-back to next diagonal trend line about 90% of the time. Also pay attention to how thick the lines are – the thicker the line the more important because they represent extensions from previous time / price cycles.

Remember you can come in to the chat room to message the trader and REMEMBER I have posted a live chart link in this post so if you can’t see the lines well on this chart above you can go to the live chart link and watch for member live algo chart links through-out the day in your email inbox!

The diagonal trend-lines are marked on chart below:

Fibonacci Levels:

Watch the lines for support and resistance. Careful using them as traditional retracement levels with crude because the algo lines etc are more dominant / predictable. But the Fib lines are excellent indicators for intra-day trade support and resistance.

The Fibonacci lines are marked on main chart above.

Horizontal Trend-Lines (purple):

Horizontal trend-lines are not as important as the other indicators reviewed above, however, they do serve as important resistance and support intra-day for tight trading and they are important if thick (in other words they come from previous time / price cycles). WE STARTED TO REPRESENT THE REALLY IMPORTANT LINES IN YELLOW FYI FOR EASE. Refer to chart for current applicable horizontal trend-lines.

Horizontal trend-lines are marked on charts above.

Oil Time / Price Cycles:

Watch your email and / or my Twitter feed for time price cycles they may start to terminate.

Time / price cycles are the single most important indicator and my record calling them is near 100% – since inception seven months ago. The reason they are so important is that a trader does not want to be holding a crude oil instrument at termination of a time cycle if not absolutely sure if price will go up or down. A trade may choose to enter a large position in advance of a time price cycle termination IF THERE IS A HIGH PROBABILITY OF A DIRECTION IN PRICE and if the market is trading at a really important pivot area. In other words, if the market is trading at the bottom of the upward trending channel at a support (yellow lines) and we knew there was a significant probability of a time cycle about to terminate a trader may enter with a long position. The price really spikes or drops significantly when these important time cycles terminate.

The problem with time / price cycle terminations is they change from minute to minute (depending on where price is on the chart) so you have to be in the trade room to get the alert. Our lead traders will do everything they can in future to send these on SMS but we have to be careful because it can be difficult with so much going on in the room. The reason they (time cycles) change is because they are actually represented by or are geometric shapes in the chart – I know it sounds odd but I have (as I mentioned) hit these calls just shy of 100%. The oil political people know the same algorithmic modeling principles and they ALWAYS TIME THEIR BIG ANNOUNCEMENTS AROUND THE TIME PRICE CYCLE TERMINATIONS.

So if you can picture a triangle on the chart – and price is trading in the triangle – and price is going to come to the edge of the triangle and there is a significant support or resistance or an algo line terminating there too or a target (those type of indications)… then we know there is a high probability of a time and price change. In other words, it is where there are clusters of algorithm points that cross and when price is going to cross over that cluster is where they are. And these are represented on all the different time frames – the larger the time frame – the larger the time price cycle termination – the larger the spike or downdraft. This is where we establish our intra-day quadrants from for sniping trades (which we will put in to the room soon because it looks like the geo political rhetoric is over for a while making them more predictable). Difficult to explain in short. So we will do our best to SMS alert these in future.

Also, the real large or important time / price cycle terminations we know far in advance and they can be put in these newsletters.

If you review my Epic the Oil Algo Twitter feed, my blog posts and my story on our website you will get a feel for how accurate these calls are.

Alpha Algo Trading Trend-Lines (Primary – Red dotted lines. Secondary – White dotted lines):

To determine which algo line is most alpha (or probable) intra day, it is the nearest line to price action. This can also help you determine the trend of trade. If the algo line is trending up the price will follow it up until price is tested at an algorithm indicator (the main tests are diagonal trendlines, horizontal trendlines, time / price cycles etc – as I have shared with you). This is why it is important to watch all the lines because they are all support and resistance. To keep it simple trade the range (yellow lines) as I’ve mentioned but keep an eye on these indicators.

Current Alpha Algo Targets (Red circles):

Your closest target that crude is trending toward is always the most probable.Then, your second most probable is the one that is up or down trend depending on whether general price is in an upward or downtrend for the most recent week or so and what your other indicators look like (such as the MA’s I explained above).

The other way to determine which targets are in play is actually quite simple, you will notice that crude trades between the channel lines up and down and up and down and there are various support and resistance along the way. If it hits a target at the top of the channel you can bet most times (unless the next day like today) that the next target hit will be at the bottom of the channel.

Wait for the price to trend toward a target and take your position and watch as price gets closer and closer to the target. Remember, that the machines trade from decision to decision – or in other words from support to next resistance or resistance to next support or when the times come each week on Tuesday Wednesday and Friday they will trend toward the target that market price action determines they go to.

Our lead trader will explain more in the room and do not hesitate to ask our lead trader in the room by private message or on twitter to explain intra day decisions.

Oil Intra-Day Algo Trading Quadrants (white dotted lines):

Trading quadrants are simply support and resistance lines that can assist your intra-day trading – they are not alpha or primary support and resistance by any measure. Price action does however typically move more assertively when leaving a trading quadrant.

Indicator Methods:

As explained above, my algorithm is a consideration of up to fifty traditional indicators at any one time – each one given its own weight in accordance to its accuracy (win rate). This is how we establish the probability of specific targets hitting (we call them alpha algo targets).

Alpha Algo Targets, Algo Trend-lines, Algo Timing, Quadrants for Intra Snipes

Algo targets are the red circles – they correspond with important times each week in oil reporting land. Tuesday 4:30 PM, Wednesday 10:30 AM and Friday at 1:00 PM. The red dotted diagonal lines are the algo trend-lines. And the vertical dotted (red or green) are marking the important times each week. You will find that the price of crude will hit one of the alpha algo targets about 90% of the time. In the absence of market direction the machines take price to the next algo line and/or target. Understanding how the price of crude reacts to the algos and how they move price from target to target is critical for intra-day and swing trading crude oil and associated instruments.

You will notice that price action of crude will use these algo trend-lines and act as support and resistance, and that price also often violently moves when an alpha algo line is breached either upward or downward.

We cover this in much more detail in the member updates, trading room. A review of my Twitter feed and previous blog posts will help you understand the relation of these indicators. We will start posting video blogs (for my subscribers) on YouTube (in addition to my daily blog posts) for swing traders that work during regular trading hours.

Also… we will cover how to establish algo trend-lines and price targets future forward (as you have seen me do on my Twitter feed for some time now).

Conclusion:

See you in the live trade room! And again, if you struggle to know how to use these indicators as a trader’s edge, it is recommended (if you have earnestly reviewed all of our documentation first) that you obtain private coaching prior to trading a real account with real money – we recommend you use a paper trading account at first.

You can also send specific questions to our email inbox at [email protected] – if you do this be sure to ask a specific question so it can be answered specifically. When the 24 hour oil trading room opens you will have ample opportunity in that 24 hour room to ask questions also.

Watch my EPIC the Oil Algo Twitter feed for intra day notices and your email in box for member only material intra day also.

Live Alerts for Oil, Gold, Swing Trading, Day Trading, Bitcoin are now available by following specific alert Twitter feeds.

Disclaimer / disclosure: Every subscriber must read this disclaimer.

Private Capital Fund / Personal Trading Going Forward:

The private capital fund will bring slight changes.

The financing of our business build-out was planned to occur by way of either retail memberships, institutional memberships or private fund trading. The retail market is still early and slow on the uptake of the requirement toward #IA intelligent assisted trade (within six years our estimation is that most retails traders will all need it, but until then we’re not waiting and we’ll just be ready on the other side of that awareness curve). The institutional membership growth has been strong and to be sure we meet our growth trajectory goals (development completion timeline targets for launch of digital “intelligent assistance” #AI algorithm models) we are engaging the implementation of a private capital fund.

A few things of consideration:

  1. Following my trades is never condoned. Trade alerts are for the purpose of alerting awareness to something important occurring so that a member can form a thesis of trade and they are also for the purpose of learning when I win and win I fail. This (following trades) will be more difficult going forward because my frequency of trade will increase also.
  2. Trade Alerts. The trade alerts (swing and day) are not guaranteed at any time (in and/or out) however, it is important to note that with a much higher frequency of trade I will be alerting only those trades I expect to last a few hours or longer. If you ask me for targets or thesis type questions on the alert feeds or otherwise it is unlikely you will receive a response. Trade review videos will be posted for that purpose as required.
  3. Type of Trades. We will be trading the algorithm models (the seven we have), day trading and swing trading for the fund.
  4. Trade Sizing. When I alert to the trading room or on a feed I will be alerting the size only specific to the membership base trading. In other words, the size of trade in our private fund is not disclosed.
  5. ROI Objective. We are trading under the goal / target of returning 100% per month. 50% would be very good and 25% is the minimum goal. So at minimum we are looking for 25% ROI per month compounded over 24 months. The fund size and/ or members will not be disclosed.
  6. Term of Project. The term is 24 months (as mentioned above). It is a personal & stakeholder legacy fund / goal retirement project. Others we train as we progress will continue the legacy fund thereafter (as will they continue with our trading services at large).
  7. Trading Platform on Screen. You may see at times (when I am trading my small daytrading account) my actual IB trading platform on the screen. When I trade my accounts (any of them) they may or may not be connected to various other private fund accounts (at different percentages etc).
  8. Sizing Considerations. Because we are also trading a private fund, there will be trades we cannot take that I may otherwise take because the fund trade size will make it difficult for me to chip in and out of and other related liquidity issues.

$APOP premarket up 32% on positive results.

Market observation / on watch:

US Dollar $DXY flat / up ish. Oil $USOIL $WTI has lift in recent sessions but in multi month sideways action, Gold / Silver continuation moderately to the sell side (I continue to warn that Gold especially is vulnerable), $SPY moderately zippy, $BTCUSD $XBTUSD off a bit over night and $VIX up a bit and moderate.

Recent Momentum Stocks to Watch: $VERI

OTC on watch: 

Recent SEC Filings to Watch: 

Some Earnings On Deck: 

Recent / Current Holds, Open and Closed Trades:

No trades Tuesday other than $XTBUSD.

Previous recent notes:

Hold small $SNAP (win), holding $SPPI (YTBD), hold some $FB (win), $XBTUSD many trades & all wins (only thing we can claim that – we don’t lose), $AAOI underwater and holding waiting for a bounce for a double down, $SHOP holding and trimmed some (winning), Gold closed my short for a win, and oil no new position as of yet.

Out 99% of $SNAP for win, new swing in $SPPI in to earnings. Hold most of $FB swing for winning exits, $XBTUSD Bitcoin we have been winning of course and especially with most recent downturn and spiking yesterday (we bought all the way down and sniped off some on bounces) and $AAOI holding, $SHOP holding. In a tight oil trade premarket long and a swing in Gold short.

Yesterday killed Bitcoin and an oil scalp. Holding $AAOI, $SNAP, $SHOP.

Holding everything still… trimmed some $SNAP and keep winning on Bitcoin 100 x leverage 24 hours a day 7 days a week.

As above, Bitcoin has been an incredible trade for members and continues to be -100 x leveraged accts having huge gains in $XBTUSD, We have members knocking on the 1 Million door that will be interviewed on our podcasts soon. $AAOI is off 20% and I am holding, $SNAP and $SHOP I continue to hold. $SNAP has been great recently also.

On Monday I entered $SHOP wash-out set-up long near HOD (but I needed a confirmed strength so that’s the way it is) and I held overnight for a swing. Still holding $AAOI and $SNAP.

In overnight trade I got a really good trade long in Bitcoin related $XBTUSD 100x leverage swaps and called the pop in oil (expecting EPIC the Algo weekly target hits) just in time in the oil trading room but missed my personal entry because we are retooling (the new machines are here and being set-up).

$ROKU I closed near the top Friday for decent gains on that swing and hold $AAOI and $SNAP yet. I am also ina $XBTUSD (Bitcoin) swing from weekend trade.

My $ROKU play looks very strong in premarket – I have been warning shorts publicly and in room very specifically told members a number of times Friday could be very active to upside. I continue to hold $AAOI and it may be a loser that I will cut if it fails 200 MA on daily.

Yesterday I closed $ATEC flatish after scalping a win previous day and $VERI I closed at a loss. Still holding $SNAP, $AAOI and tiny $OMVS position.

First quarter was easy set-up trading, second quarter got a tad tighter and by third quarter many if not most charts were extended and now the rotation is like wack a mole so I am consolidating a master list of the best most predictable structurally sound charts and will just trade them until market sorts itself.

Recently closed off $ARRY decent and entered $ATEC and $VERI yesterday. Still holding $SNAP, $AAOI, and a tiny $OMVS position.

A tad concerned about $AAOI as Applied Optoelectronics $AAOI Stock Rose, Cardinal Capital Management Lowered Its Stake by $2.73 Million …

Yesterday was good. Re entered $ARRY and it looks good. Added to $AAOI and took some off later in day for a profit. Lots of plays in and out of now – market is in much better shape.

I trimmed some positions yesterday and added some ($CUR, $ARRY, $VERI, $AAOI) and I’m active in Bitcoin $XBTUSD right now and looking at oil bias short and Gold trading soon (and miners). Review video when posted for details.

Last week on the Bitcoin dump we entered the Bitcoin fray with a buy of Bitcoin, since then on Monday I entered $XBTUSD (am looking for a move up and adds over time – it has an area of resistance to work through – but the MACD on the daily may be about to turn up here and that would be big – $GBTC on OTC play I am considering with China scenario) and trimmed some $ARRY. Still holding $ARRY and $SNAP and have some very small other positions.

Friday was an excellent trading day. Accounts all up on the day about 5%.

Review on $WTI, $SNAP, $ARRY and $TVIX trade in Mon and Tues mid day videos. Last night I took a quick oil scalp small and got a paper cut in a Gold short.

Friday I went long $ARRY $SNAP and hedged with $TVIX (which is getting hammered premarket). Also in Oil in overnight trade with the smaller position accts flat at time of post and large account positions a tad underwater on it. But the chart is on my side (risk – reward).

Closed that $AMBA trade for a small loss and the most recent oil trade from last report for a win.

Thursday no trades other than closing $MSFT overnight for small profit.

Yesterday was choppy and I nailed an oil scalp in overnight trading. In $MSFT yesterday on daytrade and swing side, in $CUR on daytrade side still and holding $UUP on swing trading side still.

Yesterday I had wins intra in $XIV and shorting $TVIX. also had an overnight hold in $CUR that is yet to be determined.

$XIV, $ARWR, $PETS wins on Thursday. On Wednesday oil $WTI big win and $PETS and $AMD on daytrade small account build yesterday.

Yesterday I closed $UWT daytrade for small win, large oil trade for win, small Gold trade for win and small loss in $TVIX. Recently $XIV I closed in premarket for small gain, still holding some position from previous, $UGLD (closed in premarket July 31 small gain), $FEYE (closed for nice gain), $SRG (closed for nice gain), $NFLX (closed for huge gain), $IPXL (closed for gain), $AKCA (closed nice gain), $MCRB (closed small gain), $WMT (closed excellent gains), $UUP (closed small loss), $BWA (closed tiny loss), Holding: $XIV and new entry $AMMJ. All other holds are small size (less than 4% of day trading account on total) holds in this order according to sizing: $ONTX, $SSH, $LGCY, $TRCH, $ESEA, $LIGA (all not including select swing trading or algorithm charting trades).

If you are new to our trading service you should review recent blog posts, the Compound Trading YouTube Channel and at minimum our algorithm Twitter feeds because they do tell a story in terms of the market and how the inflections of the market determine our day to day trading. You will notice the algorithmic modelling has been undeniably accurate with many time-frames (intra-day, weeks and months out) so I myself have learned to respect their math (they have taken me from a 60% hit rate to 80%+ in my trading – all publicly posted live trades).

Momentum Stocks (Market Open and Intra-Day):

I do trade morning momo stocks, but I do avoid risk – so often I avoid the first 30 minutes (gap and go) and trade momentum stocks later in the day after the wash-out looking for a snap-back. Just prior to open and shortly after open I post momentum stocks to the trade chat room (and Twitter and Stocktwits if I have time).

Some of my Favorite Intra-day Trading Set-Ups:

(1) Momentum Stock Wash-Outs for Snap Back, (2) Bad News Wash-outs on Stocks with High Institutional Ownership, (3) Getting on the Right Side of a Trend Change and scaling in my position and (4) Our Algorithm Set-Ups.

The momentum stocks (from previous days and morning trade) I continue to watch through the day for indicators that allow a trade.

Morning Stock Watch-Lists for my Favorite Set-Ups:

For new readers, a review of our unlocked posts on our blog would help you get in to the story we are following with the securities listed in this newsletter.

Free scanners to find momentum stocks that you can easily review charts of for indicators that bring probability of your trade being successful up considerably. These are not useful for first 30 minute market open gap and go type plays (you need a good momentum scanner, level 2, and best to have hot-keys for the first 30 mins of gap and go trading)… but are very useful for intra day scalping and swing trading (start with trending stocks and then look at indicators intra for simple set-ups – study scan study scan study scan).
