In play today in chat room and on markets:
Last week I was range bound to 1500.00 a day (really choppy) until Thursday got better around +2500.00 then Friday was flat and even took a small cut and Monday took a small razor cut at open and took a long position in $PLUG at EOD, Was looking at a long in $UUP (surrounding Yellen report) but didn’t, and I’m looking closely at an Oil and Gold / Miner’s short possibility. Swing trades are doing well of course because they are more consistently controlled (wider time frames with simple charting entries and exits do that).

If you can’t back a trade w/ tech set-up or at min fundamentals… then you deserve to take a loss. Like me w my one paper cut at open ha.

We have been warning folks (as a result of algorithm anomalies picked up) for sometime about significant resistance not far above in Oil and SPY so it will be interesting to see if we get through it. Here’s just some of the posts. The oil resistance cluster is much larger than the one identified on $SPY.
We notified members in most recent trading range over last week that our algorithm identified a divergence and to expect an interimn top.
— Freedom $SPY Algo (@FREEDOMtheAlgo) March 21, 2017
To be clear, our algorithm @FREEDOMtheAlgo alerted a $SPY anomaly recently. Which has us cautious until recent high taken out and confirmed.
— Curtis Melonopoly (@curtmelonopoly) April 3, 2017
I wouldn't get too excited long $SPY $ES_F $USOIL $WTI etc. until most recent highs are taken out and confirmed.
— Curtis Melonopoly (@curtmelonopoly) March 30, 2017
7 of… A break to upside of $SPY $WTI algo resistance would signal what can only be described as "unnatural" I suppose…

Simple swing charting that keeps me level when looking at the markets (see swing trade simple charting link above). Simple charting I find grounds you to simple trades which in turn keeps you profitable in toppy or sideways markets.

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.
