In play today in chat room and on markets: $IDXG , $GNC $DWT, $DUST, $USOIL, $WTIC, $GDX

Got a decent momentum play first thing in the morning on $IDXG for about a 600.00 win and then later played it again only to have an intra-day 8-K offering slam it. So I was red on day by about 1200.00. One of my bigger losses on year so far. I got so used to winning I forgot what it was like to take a loss. Now, on my accounts very small relative but still sucks. A good reminder to always set stops, even on smaller entries. But this does highlight the need to keep your risk management and sizing in check.

Curt M: Long 3.56 1000 shares $IDXG
Curt M: Stop 3.60
Curt M: Add 4.07 1000
Curt M: Stop 3.88
Curt M: Out 4.13 2000

Still holding miscellaneous small bags that constitute less than 5% of portfolio (which is typical for me) and holding my $DWT (at 1/5 size) and $DUST at 2/5 size.

The opening video today with the $IDXG momentum trade was an awesome training / learn how-to trade stocks type video on technical set-ups and indicators on gap and go momentum stocks for new and even some more advanced traders (I had a few message me about it and I was surprised it was valuable for them too).

Wow that was awesome market open! $IDXG – boom time again for members. Caught on vid too. Anyway off mic til noon chart setup review. Peace.

Had one of my worst wash-outs YTD today in $IDXG – really small position but it caught me without a stop. Ugh. See rules then trade.

Live Trading Chat Room Video Raw Footage and Transcript:

Two Part video (Part 1 embed is below and go to Compound Trading Youtube channel for Part 2 of live feed from day and other charting from the day)
 

Compound Trading Stock Chat-room Transcript:

Please note: Miscellaneous chatter removed from transcript and some discussions I will add notes with information I’ve gleaned in discussions online with traders on DM etc also for further explanation (noted with *). Most days at 9:30 ET market open there is moderator live broadcast explaining trades and at times during the day there is also live broadcast market updates and trade set-up explanations (so you have to scroll through video feed to market open etc to catch live broadcast portions – in future we will note in in transcript when we are on the mic so viewers can correlate time with transcript with video feed when reviewing trades). 

Note: We are testing a new trading room. This particular room does not list a time stamp with each chat entry – we are working on a fix. Also, please note, sometimes pieces of the transcript are missing (also something we are working on). But the video is raw and complete.

Sammy T: $XGTI tape bullish guys

Curt M: Going to watch for confirmation or break down – if it breaks down I’ll come back in later likely
Curt M: Off mic until it goes (if it does)
Spiegel: Of course Sartaj! I don’t believe in people just jumping into a room and shouting “Give me the picks” so they can just treat things like a chimp pushing buttons. There has to be some understanding and learning involved.
Curt M: Will watch it – holding – may hit it hard when Stoch RSI at bottom pending price aaction
Sammy T: When Stoch RSI turns up I’ll be in full throttle myself fwiw
Spiegel: So it’s turned up. I got in. Anyone else get in or add there?
Sammy T: Me, len , market maven for sure lol
Spiegel: of course now that I’m in its crossed back down.
Spiegel: there we go!
Sammy T: yepp
Sammy T: it may berak HOD real early here
Sammy T: Stoch RSI is near top though so there is a chance it will continue to consolidate though
MarketMaven: Everyone doesn’t want to miss the afternoon move thats why its so bullish early IMO

Spiegel: and now its halted which is never a good thing when it’s been going way down
MarketMaven: It’s repair
MarketMaven: ya Curt’s got it right thats support – if it doesn’t hold that off halt then theres a problem lol
MarketMaven: Still above my cost avg too so I’m good
Spiegel: Apparently they did a $2.20 convertible note. So it’s going to get killed when it reopens. What a terrible first trade I’m trapped in.
MarketMaven: Checking
Flash G: Seems odd intra day
Spiegel: its open
Flash G: Confirmed. The nes isn’t good. But the traders may trade it up.
MarketMaven: Perspective is your cost avg Spiegel – never take your learning trades at slow time of day lol and get a stop on your trades young man! in future.
MarketMaven: They’re shorting the pops now
MarketMaven: has to hold 3
lenny: 40 MM shares wow
Curt M: I can’t get a confirm on the $IDXG news

Curt M: 3,547,775.00 2.20 Dated March 23
Curt M: 8-K sorry not 9
Curt M: Closing of Agreement April 18, 2017
Curt M: It’s a small offering though. but still.
Curt M: Matures June 23 2018 for 125% of face value.
Curt M: Iinteresting FORM 8-K. Should bounce but don’t count on it.
Curt M: If it loses 2.95 I’ll cut for a loss. Dirt bags intra day. Wow.
MarketMaven: Never seen that before.
Flash G: I have but rare.
Curt M: I’ve never seen this scenario.
Spiegel: What are the odds it would happen my very first trade here? Nobodies fault. Couldn’t be predicted or even expected. And yes I should have had a stop in (even if Curt didn’t).
Curt M: Similar I’ve seen but the FORM 9-K makes it original
MarketMaven: Ya low of day is my cut point to…. 2.94.
MarketMaven: But its holding up.
Spiegel: Sadly I wasn’t in on the big rise earlier. Was just observing. So this hurts.
lenny: Who the hell does a mid day offering?
rom: cup and handle pattern on the 1 minute?
lenny: Anyway, I’ll likely cut 2.94 or add at break of current resistance for a quick trade.
Curt M: On mic in 3 min for mid day review >>>>>>>>>>>>
Curt M: On mic 12:08 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Curt M: $IDXG stopped 2.93 for a loss 200 shares
Spiegel: IDXG in at 4.15. Stopped at 3.05. $1100 loss. Glad to get the worst luck of the year out of the way at the beginning.
Sartaj: Did we mention our office has been busy? Curt will be back in a second
rom: sb
rom: chart
Spiegel: If USDYEN falls as you expect won’t that make gold fall and hurt your DUST position? Or am I wrong about your thoughts on USDJPY
Leanne: Thanks Curtis, love the lessons
