Notices:
Good morning!
This swing trading report is one in five in rotation. The goal is to publish each in rotation approximately every 30 – 40 days (pending market conditions). We currently have approximately one hundred equities we cover regularly on our swing trading service.
This is Part A of this report.
The reports are in the process of upgrades to included buy and sell triggers identified on charting of select instruments that are nearing trade set-ups. The triggers (price and / or other indicators) will also be programmed in to our charting for attendees to the live trading room and alerts will flash on screen in the trading room. Additionally, the triggers will be buy / sell points for our traders to use as part of the alerts members may receive.
If you need help with a specific trade and the specific trading plan for your swing trade set-up let me know and as I have time I can help you formulate.
When managing your trades with the 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.
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 (highly recommended if you are not trading green yet). If interested in coaching options email me [email protected].
IF WE DON’T GET BACK TO YOU RIGHT AWAY it is usually because we are pressured with deadlines or are trading.
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”.
To remove the indicators (MACD, Stochastic RSI, Squeeze Momentum Indicator represented at bottom of chart) double click on chart body – and same to return the indicators.
If you receive a report and you are not subscribed to the specific service it is a complimentary issue..
Our apologies if you receive more than one copy – it means you are on more than one subscription list. We are working to resolve this issue.

Stock Pick Coverage
$C – CitiGroup
May 15 – CITI bought consistently at historical support noted previous. MACD trend up. Resistance above. Riding 200 MA. $C
This is an interesting set-up. I’m slightly bullish but it has to gain the mid quad resistance above at 74.00 and then long side entries can start as long as indicators are cooperating..
Closed Tuesday 72.68 with next support below at 70.45 and currently riding 200 MA.
Trade above 74.00 has resistance above at 76.71.
Recent article on Investopedia Citigroup’s Stock May Rebound by 10%
April 4 – Citi quad wall & historical support near. 74.46 PT Chart notes. – #C chart
$C Citi at a quad wall and historical support test here. 74.46 June 15 time cycle price target in play. #swingtrading
The trading area quad wall test (blue dotted diagonal line) is real. It could hold. If not it is down to lower target most likely.
But if it holds the path of least resistance is June 15 price cycle peak price target at 74.46.
Also of note the historical pivot / support is the horizontal white dotted line.
Huge risk reward advantage here for bull side trade.
HOWEVER, the 200 MA on daily has been lost so watch that as significant upside resistance test if price gets upward momentum.
AND, the MACD on daily is not crossed up as of yet.
There is a special report out to members on CitiGroup swing trading set-up here. Password: CITISWING
$AKTX – Akari Therapeutics
May 16 – Trading 1.92 and trade has been flat since last report. Will watch. No set-up now.
April 4 – Watching $AKTX quad wall support test VERY CLOSE here. Upside May 16 price target is near double.
With this chart set-up all they need is some PR news and it will go in my opinion.
Stochastic RSI on daily recently turned up but MACD is flat and SQZMOM trending down. Would be prudent to have all 3 turned up for a long.
$AKTX Buy / Sell Triggers:

Disney almost at May 30 target now that is in the 103.80 area. $DIS
April 4 – $DIS trading 100.57 has MACD on daily targeting 103.89 110.64 May 30. #swingtrading Other targets noted.
Watch the 200 MA overhead as main resistance test on the way there.

Mar 1 – $DIS Stoch RSI turned down under 200 MA under mid quad bearish to targets.
This looks like a short to either target (follow price) if price stays under mid quad and 200 MA. It has been predictabiy hitting target areas.

White arrows are the most important buy sell triggers on the chart.
Above 22.50 (give it some room) it is a long to next resistance 24.00 area (horizontal lines on chart are resistance / support lines depending on what side of the line trade is on). Next on upside is 24.14 and then 25.12, then 25.44 and 25.91 area.
Under 22.50 area it targets support at 21.14 and then 21.00 then 20.03 and 19.71.
Price targets on model to bullish side are 25.91 and really bullish 29.19 Oct 1 2018. Trade toward target with price action using support and resistance points.

Mar 1 – $MXIM trade between the horizontal support and resistance lines.
$ATHM – AutoHome
May 16 – Next resistance on $ATHM 110.38 – 110.43 on weekly chart model. Not much to report, it’s a long timed as best as you can and trim in to each resistance. Or wait for it to cool and then long it.

$BWA – BorgWarner
April 8 – $BWA structural trading upside quad test breaks targets 54.32 July 19. 50.56 46.68 if fail. MACD up. Stoch RSI short term sell.
Long at quad wall (blue diagonal dotted line) and short at top of quad until either breaks and go in direction of trade to next target.
On high watch here for me. Very, very nice structure.
Mar 1 – $BWA Under serious pressure with DOW slump and on 200 MA on Daily. Likely down further.
$BWA on weekly watching for possible bounce at 50 or 200 MA but MACD turned down.
Jan 16 – $BWA needs to trade above 57.95 and hold to target higher in to earnings or it is lower. #swingtrading
I have this one alarmed and will chart the swing trade targets to upside or downside as trade develops in to earnings set for Feb 8, 2018.

April 8 – $LIT Short side RR is low here and long to risky until Stoch RSI and MACD cross up.
Mar 1 – Trading 34.22 lost 200 MA on daily – watching for a reconstruct bounce or continuation down. Watching.
Jan 23 – $LIT Lithium ETF trading 38.65 with Stoch RSI near bottom, MACD crossed down, SQZMOM red, watch for Stoch RSI cross up first.

Mar 1 – Trading 262.21 with indecisive indicators. Watching.
Jan 23 – $BA Boeing trading 338.00 with Stoch RSI turned down, MACD and SQZMOM extended. Assess when Stoch RSI curls up.
Nov 14 – Trading 262.28 and all indicators in my opinion are extended / tired to bull side. I may be wrong, but I don’t see any great risk reward thesis available to long or short side right now.
$EXK – EXK Silver Mining
April 8 – $EXK in compression mode between 20 MA and 50 MA. Watching.
Mar 1 – $EXK under 200 MA on daily chart – watch for upside breach.
$BABA – Alibaba

Here is the $BABA chart premarket https://www.tradingview.com/chart/BABA/FyzDSu1Q-BABA-careful-with-swing-trade-long-short-term-as-Stoch-RSI-is-d/
Oct 9 – $BABA Trading near recent highs, trending. On break w MACD SQZMOM up I may long. #swingtrading
Aug 7 – Trading 153.33. Trending above ma’s keeps coming back to 20 ma and bouncing and now past ER so it should pullback to a deeper ma in trend and on a bounce I’ll enter.
July 24 – Trading 152.02 ER 17 days and MACD may turn down? Hard to say. Watching.
July 14 – Trading 149.75. This also is in break out and extended well above MA’s. Watching.
July 5 – Trading 140.99 and has been in range for days now on daily. MACD trending down so I will wait for it to turn to assess.
June 26 – Trading 143.01. Well, here we go with the no pull back again. All indicators are trending up on daily but the Stoch RSI turned down on weekly and volume is consistently coming down so I think a pull back is near.
June 18 – Trading 134.87. Still no pull back and I continue to pay. Anyway on weekly stoch rsi is turned down so we will see but MACD and SQZMOM is turned up so who knows when it will stop.
June 6 – Trading 125.20. Didn’t get our pull back and we’re paying. BUT SQZMOM just slightly turned down on weekly now so maybe we’ll get that pullback yet.
May 31 – Trading 123.60. Watching for a pull back.
May 23 – Trading 125.10. Well we got the pullback around earnings and missed it. Hopefully some members got it. It’s trading at near ATH’s right now in premarket.
May 17 – Trading 124.00. Every indicator on hourly, daily and weekly are still flashing buy, however, there has been no pullback to get an entry long. Watching.
May 8 – Trading 117.20. Same as below. Earnings nine days away also.
May 3 – Watching for it to cool off. Unfortunately we did miss some of the move. Waiting for MACD to trend down and catch it on its next turn up.
April 24 – Watching.
April 19 – Closed 111.40 at target from 104.64 cost avg 500 shares. Will allow MACD to return to bottom for re-entry.
April 10 – Hit 110.45, very near our 111.40 target. Holding, trading 109.34. Long 104.64.
April 4 – Holding long 500 shares from 104.64 now trading 108.17. It is testing all time highs and we may add on a break of all time highs. If it pulls back we may cut for a small profit. First price target is 111.40 (see below)

March 27 – We’re long 104.64 500 shares March 22 at test of 20 MA. Stop is at our entry and we are looking for a fresh break-out. However, the market sentiment is not great right now so we are unsure. There is an upside pivot at 111.38 we are watching for resistance should price continue up. Also watching MACD close.
March 20 – Wait for MACD to turn up and confirm and stay long until MACD turns down. The Stoch RSI seems to be frontrunning the MACD fyi. $BABA is one of my favorites right now and I see a long entry early in the week.
