The Weekly Simple Swing Trade Charting (public edition) is out:

Summary Review of Markets, Chat Room, Algorithm Charting, Trades and Alerts:

Premarket was all about:

$HTGM

$HTGM Premarket up 28%

In play today in chat room and on markets:

$UWT, $USOIL, $WTIC, $USRM, $APOP, $HTGM

$HTGM was the big premarket mover, I didn’t take a trade but I know members that did and banked.

My first trade was $APOP at open I was in at 10.14 for 1000 shares and out at 10.98. Small win +840.00

Second trade was $APOP later at 11.56 and held through day and cut for small loss 10.44 later in day. 1000 shares -1200.00.

My next trade was the first of a series of entries and exits and which became a large trade as oil trade progressed through the week (to the point where I was in 100% size and when I trade oil related it can get large relative to my portfolio because my win rate in oil related is near 97%). Anyway, I started with a long $UWT position at 10% size 1000 shares at 16.55.

My last trade was in $USRM for a 1/5 size trade 100,000 shares at .0825 and out at .1053 for a nice win + 2279.00

So I was up on the day about 1800.00 not including the huge win that progressed through the week in oil related long ETN $UWT.

Stocks, ETN’s, ETF’s I am holding:

I am holding (in order of sizing – all moderately small size to micro sizing) – $DUST, $ONTX, $XOM, $NE, $ASM, $SSH, $LGCY, $TRCH, $ESEA, $MGTI (this is the daytrading portfolio and does not represent swing trading service portfolio): Looking at moving out of all these small positions over the next month or so. I am now 95% cash in daytrading account.

Note-able Momentum Stocks Today (via FinViz):

NA – Not available as I am reporting days late.

The Markets Looking Forward:

I posted this on my Twitter feed at the end of the day because most people and media pundits were very bearish Monday and I wasn’t.

Algorithmic Chart Model Trading / News:

NA

Swing Trading Notes / News:

Last weekend we produced some simple swing charting that keeps me level when looking at the markets (examples below). Simple charting I find grounds you to simple trades which in turn keeps you profitable in toppy or sideways markets.

Live Trading Chat Room Transcript: (on YouTube Live):

Note: There is no video available for Monday March 27 session. It was the first day testing a new platform. Videos resume on Tuesday trading post.

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 now.

HedgehogTrader: 🙂
HedgehogTrader: yay- hopefully that was okay
Curtis M: Of course. You’ll be controllng charts and voice soon too along with 5 or 6 of you right away.
Sammy T: My opinion – that other room took notice because our content is massive and they know its going to be ten times as massive soon as those algos are coded. They aren’t stupid but they won’t have what we have. Just my opinion.
Sammy T: I had a guy ask me how we process 200000 equations on six algos in an evening lol – not easy kido
MarketMaven: that many?
Sammy T: possible variations yes
OILK: lol
mathew: I didn’t eve notice another room was stealing your stuff. I don’t really look around too much but that’s BS. Just out of principle I would be aggravated
