Also reviewed $XGTI, $DXPE, $NATR, $WB, $ETSY in the mid day chart review but I was traveling (not using my usual computer) and a glitch caused the session not to record (ugh).

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).

NO VIDEO FOR TUESDAY (TECHNICAL GLITCH AS LEAD TRADER WAS TRAVELING)

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.

Here’s quick email interaction from today re: $TWLO:

Member:

Hi guys

I hate to bother you with stuff but in today’s live action early in the am Curt pointed out that twlo under 25 had another dollar and when the trade was made he mentioned that he will close above 26. Pretty impressive. I just wanted to know what was the method used there to determine a) that twlo was going to go up and not down again like the night before and how did targets get determined?

Thanks in advance.

Nasir

Curtis:

Hey no problem message me on Twitter DM anytime to if you like or tag me in a tweet – whatever’s easier for you

Ummm… the answer is long on that… it’s the indicators the MA’s and how they were set up… the mid day review videos on our You Tube will kind of explain.

I’ll try and do a post specific to your questions soon if time allows:)

‘Volatility markets are pricing in virtually zero risk in the near term.’

The time to worry about VXX is when volume (as % of total shares outstanding) dries up.

$VIX short exposure.

$SPY S&P 500 / $SPX:

NEW Blog – “How Concerning Is The Underperformance Of The Equal Weight S&P 500?” https://www.seeitmarket.com/how-concerning-is-equal-weight-sp-500-underperformance-16824/ … by @CiovaccoCapital
$SPX $SPXEW

$SPX in only 7-point range Tuesday, ahead of FOMC. I’d say that low Average True Range (ATR) is marking a top, but it has not worked lately.

Surprisingly enough, YoY growth in margin debt has historically been a positive sign for the S&P

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.

Sartaj: haven’t been kicked, either
sbrasel: thoughts on twlo?
sbrasel: below ipo and heavy short interest
sbrasel: not sure
sbrasel: they blamed it on uber
sfkrystal: $PIRS down to 3.23 ask
Market Maven: $TWLO Ilike that idea thanks!
quarryrock: took a bath on my GRPN casino play
sbrasel: 35 % short interst
Flash G: Long $TWLO 24.65 small start
Lenny: I need a bath
Lenny: In $TWLO with ya Flash
Lenny: panny moregoing t oplay the range to res
quarryrock: AMD nice DCB
Spiegel: hot crappy low priced stock today with lots of twitter buz is budz
Spiegel: BUDZ
Spiegel: terrible daily but like CNBX due for a bounce
Market Maven: A lot of short opps at open.
sfkrystal: like that $PIRS held 3.08
Spiegel: PIRS turning up nicely
sfkrystal: in from 3.20 $PIRS
quarryrock: STC $QQQ .52 +27%
Lenny: $PIRS snap back could get huge
Spiegel: good one krystal. Was looking to get in and I looked away at something else and it took off without me
Sammy T: yep nice
Flash G: $GILD bottom on watch
Sammy T: $FNCX 19%
Spiegel: Did you remember to reboot your computer before open today?
Curt M_1: ha ya
quarryrock: $FSLR on the loose !
Sammy T: $MTBC pressure
Sammy T: Long $DUST starter
Curt M_1: $TWLO res tes
Curt M_1: res test
quarryrock: BTO $CRM 86.5 Ps .42 5/5
Sartaj: Putin and Erdogan press conference in Sochi
Spiegel: BUDZ 1.42 now
Spiegel: 1.48 now. Think it was 1.32 when I first mentioned it
Spiegel: You need a gaming laptop
sfkrystal: $PIRS nhod
Spiegel: AMLH moving
Sartaj: 5 minutes to #EIA
Curt M_1: Close $UWT 16.16 1200 shares small win from last night swing
Sartaj: Spiegel hasn’t seen this in real-time before
Sartaj: Quite a few people in here who haven’t
sfkrystal: whoah
Sartaj: SEE?!
Sartaj: WE’RE NOT CRAZY
sfkrystal: that’s… insane
Sartaj: Managed markets
Spiegel: So was EPIC calling for it to drop there?
Sartaj: Intersect the span of the quadrant, with a high probability of dropping through its lower supports
Sartaj: But if you want to be specific, an algorithm calls one output; in this case, a price/time. So we knew it would hit 47.83 at 10:30 am exactly
Sammy T: EPIC
Sammy T: good name
Spiegel: You weren’t holding any positions though when that oil report came out though, right?
sfkrystal: brilliant
Spiegel: I’ve decided I’m definitely joining the EPIC bundle on June 1 for 6 months.
quarryrock: $X woodshedded
Lenny: super cool stuff
Sartaj: Not much more to say. Now you all know where the frustration comes from when everyone’s bullish (TV, fintwit, etc.), and EPIC is calling these turns literally weeks in advance. The latest top, for example – called six weeks in advance
Sartaj: And then, when the turn was happening, people are still sending DM’s “oh hard to say where oil will go…”
quarryrock: STC $CRM Ps +.11 26% hitting singles
Sartaj: I’ll get a highlight video up later today
Spiegel: I wouldn’t let it bother me. Youre making big money and you have the satisfaction of always being right
quarryrock: all the large QQQ names choppy
Curt M_1: $TWLO having hard time with 200 MA on the 3
Curt M_1: I literally never lose in oil plays – when room is open I’ll trade intra day too like mad – that chart you see is a 30 min – but those are available on all time frames for tight trade or wide trade
Spiegel: When am I supposed to sleep?
Curt M_1: I don’t now you know why
sfkrystal: lol
Spiegel: there must be a dead hour or two between different sessions
Curt M_1: I haven’t slept since EPIC was invented
Spiegel: Oh wow!
Curt M_1: hardly lo
Sartaj: Coding phase will alleviate some of that pressure, but you get even less sleep during software development
Sartaj: so.
Spiegel: Guess I’ll just have to develop a coke habit combined with Monster energy drinks in order to stay awake and trade EPIC
Curt M_1: and we have the algos now for other things like Gold etc so we’re puped about the future
Curt M_1: coke would help ya
quarryrock: BTO $146 $AAPL Ps .76
Spiegel: LOL – great. And I’ll be able to afford it too!
Spiegel: kidding of course
Sartaj: pays for itself
Curt M_1: Long $TWLO 24.98 800 shares
quarryrock: STC $APPL P’s quick scalp .11 $500
Spiegel: AMLH finally broke a penny.
ny75: snap 20 cross 200 on 3 min coming up
quarryrock: AAPL may go find that $145 again
Curt M_1: Going for coffee – will be back for lunch hour review. Will watch $TWLO while gone and dump it if it loses much more than VWAP
ny75: what is the target for twlo?
Curt M_1: I don’t have one – just a daytrade snipe
ny75: ok thanks
quarryrock: BTO $SLW $19.50 Cs .27 5/5
quarryrock: miners are waking up
Hedgehog Trader: $EXK beasting (silver miner)
Sartaj: Midday Chart Review starts at 12:05
Curt M_1: On mic>>>>>>>>>>>
ny75: $shop
Spiegel: JNUG
mat: Old fave ASM trying to base off of a sloppy looking double bottom at 1.4/1.41. Im in a few looking for another run
Spiegel: MAybe AMLH
Hedgehog Trader: Mat- look at $EXK
Hedgehog Trader: it’s one the best performers today for great fundies
mat: Will do. TAHO was a crazy earnings beat. I think they are backloading a lot of their costs to the rest of the year or something
mat: EXK looks good. PPP puting in a similar move after nice earnings as well. PPP had a large strike going at it’s major mine so the rest of the year should rock
Hedgehog Trader: and Mat- $NAK
Hedgehog Trader: been strong during downdraft
mat: NAK is on my DNT list lol
ny75: shop
Hedgehog Trader: ha 🙂
Hedgehog Trader: $SINO always strong
Hedgehog Trader: i’m looking for shippers to rally hard into mid-May
Hedgehog Trader: my signals indicate a very large magnitude move in next 15 days for $EXK
Hedgehog Trader: makes sens if you believe miners will break out
Hedgehog Trader: of their slump and run
mat: Silver is oversold hard and GDX has been acting better. Put in its low last week while silver/gold continue to be weak so that tells em miners want to rally if the base metals cooperate
mat: gdxj/gld ratio is also in the gutter
Hedgehog Trader: gold usually bottoms after miners
mat: Yepp, usually miners front run the metals. I’m looking for this week and next weeks earnings to be the catalyst to get things moving north
Hedgehog Trader: Mat i get we’re likely to see them run to at least May 16th
sfkrystal: $PIRS might be setting up
will: pulm?
Hedgehog Trader: Opa!
ny75: question: are you in snap in your swing side port?
Hedgehog Trader: that’s okay Curt, can’t get em all. besides, you can make bank on LACDF
Hedgehog Trader: tremendous fundies behind lithium right now
Spiegel: I’m just worried about them defaulting.
Hedgehog Trader: some of these had long consolidations
Hedgehog Trader: like $ESEA and investors aren’t always sure when to jump in
Hedgehog Trader: LACDF also had $440k of insider buying since Apr 11
Spiegel: TWLO making at bit of a comeback
Spiegel: When market gets soft, are you set to do bearish 3X ETFs?
Curt M_1: yes sir
Curt M_1: and it may not get soft
Spiegel: Great!
Sartaj: brb
Spiegel: I’ve got TWLO options expiring Friday
will: cbli pulling back today
Spiegel: My TWLO options up 53% if I sell at the ask
Curt M_1: $VWR halt
Spiegel: TWLO continues to impress
Spiegel: Only $1 from target
Spiegel: Even Wikipedia has all you need to know
Spiegel: Sorry, that ws for someone else I was chatting with
Spiegel: TWLO 25.99!
Spiegel: $even the even $26 didn’t slow it down too much
Sartaj: It’s actually going, but the MACD is about to peak
Spiegel: Selling my options
Sartaj: Nice
Spiegel: out
Sartaj: Just in time
Sartaj: Hello, Bernard
sfkrystal: $VWR should go to at least 40% on the day
Curt M_1: You’ll like it Spiegel
Spiegel: In at .65. Endured some pain and almost sold. Sold for 1.25 for 92%
Spiegel: Peaked at 1.50 ask
Curt M_1: nice
sfkrystal: which was that spiegel?
Spiegel: TWLO call options
Spiegel: May 5, $25s
sfkrystal: ah, ok options ic
Spiegel: very risky since so short term
Spiegel: If TWLO stayed under $25 by Friday I’s lose everything. So I didn’t bet big.
sfkrystal: $PIRS has trouble with 3.72
Spiegel: Getting out of TWLO was great timing. If I had to sell now bid on the option is only .75 so just 15% profit. cents profit
sfkrystal: back in $PIRS from 3.72
Market Maven: $PIRS could break out here for sure
Spiegel: Agree Maven. Right at the breakout level now
Spiegel: 3rd times a charm
Curt M_1: $HIL halt
Spiegel: I want back in to TWLO options but my history has always been when I go back for seconds I lose. Should just be happy with what I’ve made
Flash G: yes
Spiegel: Lets just mark the stock here 25.85 and see how it wouldve worked out for me.
Spiegel: I’m not buying
Spiegel: watch, this will be the time it wouldve realy worked out
Spiegel: $26.75 here we come!
Spiegel: JNUG almost $17!
Sammy T: Miners are frisky with FOMC for sure
Curt M_1: Fed unchanged
Spiegel: as expected
Flash G: $GOOGL has legs under it.
Hedgehog Trader: $ASM chart now looking good
Spiegel: maybe not for long if gold keeps going down. I can’t believe rates unchanged is making it fall. It should be making it rise.
Flash G: Fairly quiet post FOMC – should pick up after oil closes at 2:30
Curt M_1: $TWLO out 25.59
Spiegel: So glad I didn’t rebuy the options. Old Spiegel would have
Curt M_1: Should have bailed when resistance was tested
Curt M_1: haha
Curt M_1: 24.98 buy 800 shares out 25.59 was originally going to close at 26.30 ish ugh
Sammy T: Long $PIRS 3.90 for a test on break-out
Flash G: Russell didn’t hear what it wanted that’s for sure
Sammy T: Would be nice to get a power hour
Hedgehog Trader: instead of a powder hour
Hedgehog Trader: or a chowder hour
Market Maven: yup
Spiegel: FNBC looking good
Hedgehog Trader: btw for miners have a look at $GPL, Mat
Hedgehog Trader: https://twitter.com/HedgehogTrader/status/859846780288200704

Sammy T: Have a good one all! See you tomorrow.
Bernard: Hi Sartaj
Bernard: I haven’t been watching much today. lol
Market Maven: You too!
Sartaj: Just as well. In any case, looks like there was some interesting stuff going on with oil today. Did you go short?
Bernard: Unfortunately, I didn’t.
quarryrock: interesting behavior on AAPL all day
Sartaj: Nice to hear from you, in any case. We usually don’t hear too much from the newsletter people haha
Sartaj: Nice to hear from you, in any case. We usually don’t hear too much from the newsletter people haha
Lenny: Night all
Bernard: haha. yeah. I’m waiting for oil to bottom out and ride it back up
Curt M_1: Night golks
Bernard: If I’m reading chart correctly, the bottom should be 47.30 unless it breaks support, right?
Sartaj: Can you send that again over email, please? We are about to shut down the room
Bernard: sure
Sartaj: Thanks

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.

Premarket momo.

Don’t forget we’re doing premarket chart set-up reviews for members! Get in there and get ready for the day!

$GNC Premarket up 20% on earnings.

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.

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.

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 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Leanne: Spiegel, I’m new too, you are not alone here.

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
Leanne: I hear ya! wish I was focussed on trading more. in time,
rom: you are the best!
rom: thank you so much

Premarket watch-list for me was all about: 

$OCRX $STAF $EYES $AAOI $TVIA

$OCRX Premarket Chart

$OCRX Premarket up 40% on news.

In play today in chat room and on markets:

Premarket was in $OCRX $STAF $EYES $AAOI $TVIA and then on the day it was $NVET, $CALI, $STRM, $VSTM and a few others. I didn’t trade any day-trades but did some Swing Trading management on that platform.

On the OTC side my $LIGA call was playing out well.

Also on top of $USOIL, $WTI intensely of course because I am in $DWT and Gold $GLD because I am in 1/5 small position in $DUST and $XIV, $VIX, $SPX, $SPY play getting interesting to me so watching very closely.

How-to Trade Stocks, Lessons and Educational:

It’s not about picking the right stocks. Focus should be mechanics of the trade – indicators for entry, exit, sizing, timing, trailing etc.

What a great post ???⤵ #trading #success

“Rules Based Approach” If there was only one thing I could drive home w/ new traders (that I speak to all day every day) is this one thing.

Never blame, never complain, never lack gratitude for the opportunity to learn. Be a good loser, dust off and move on to the next trade.

Stocks, ETN’s, ETF’s I am holding:

I am holding (in order of sizing – all moderately small size to micro sizing) – $DUST, $DWT, $XIV, $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.

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.

Optionsavvy: long $QQQ here

Flash G: $NFLX chart repairing
Flash G: I think you guys hit it on the head. Next week could be very big.
Curt M: 10:03 Off mic – no momo plays – scanning – will do chart review at 12:00 EST – 1:00 EST in preparation for next week >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

MarketMaven: I know theyre all junk
MarketMaven: sometimes i will just scalp em
Flash G: $SHOP break out likely to hold IMO
MarketMaven: Careful with $ZENO

Optionsavvy: that auto loan default comment on your feed sounded a LOT like what they were saying in 05-07 about housing. its an asset and has a tangible value. think we all know how that worked out
Sammy T: yes
Flash G: Doesn’t look good the autos. Canadian housing prices too.
Flash G: Toronto and Vancouver.
Flash G: $GOOGLE strong now
Optionsavvy: cyclical trade would be short GM and F . auto values will collapse and noone buying anything
Flash G: $SPY still might take off from here.
Flash G: 50 MA about to cross up through 100 on the 3 there you never know
Optionsavvy: imo DOW would have to get moving for anything meaningful to happen today
Flash G: Thats a fact
Optionsavvy: starting to look like I’m heading to golf course early 🙂
Flash G: Well enjoy! I will be in the scotch at 1PM for an early tip.
Optionsavvy: this AXSM is setup nicely. got long it early in the week but might cut it loose if it doesnt wake up soon

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.

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.

Intro:

Compound Trading is trading group involved with day trading, swing  trading and algorithmic model chart trading.

Time stamped entries (in permanent archive) copied to this blog are direct live log chat from chat trade room as they occurred (random chat from myself not applicable or other misc chat deleted). Chat trade room is also video recorded daily for trade archive.

In addition to chat, this trade-room has live voice broadcast (that covers in detail what indicators I am looking for in and out off each trade) and has live chart screen sharing right from my monitor to the room with all indicators I am looking at. At times guest traders and associate  traders will screen share charting and/or voice broadcast.

EVERY CALL WE MAKE, EVERY PUBLIC INTERACTION, REPRESENTATION OF TRADE (ON EVERY VENUE) IS VIDEO RECORDED (TRADING ROOM), ON SOCIAL MEDIA OR ON BLOG / WEBSITE TIME-STAMPED FOR PERMANENT RECORD AND ABSOLUTE TRANSPARENCY. PLEASE ALSO REFER TO OUR PUBLIC DISCLOSURE https://compoundtrading.com/disclosure-disclaimer/ .

New lead trader blogpostWhen You Learn It – You Are Free (Part 1 of Freedom Traders). My Stock Trading Story.

Big Changes: Even though we post my trades and trading room transcript and video daily (which has been a massive time investment) as of now we are posting intra-day small videos to our Twitter feed and YouTube – every trade as they happen. Each will have details of setup and reasoning for each trade. We will still post complete trading room session to Youtube also.

If you missed it, here is the Previous Day Stock Trading Results Friday Mar 31:

Premarket Trading Plan – Watchlist (member post) for Monday April 3 session can be found here:

 

The Weekly Simple Swing Trade Charting (public edition) is out. This week however had a lot of indecision in the charts:

Swing Trading Simple Charts (Public Edition) Apr 2 $SPY, $VIX, $USOIL $WTIC, $GLD, $GDX, $SLV, $DXY, $USDJPY

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

Premarket watch-list for me was all about: 

$NVCR, $STDY, $DVAX, $APOP, $TSLA, $XIV, $DWT

In play today in chat room and on markets:

$NVCR, $XIV, $AKTX, $MMEX, $USOIL, $WTIC, $DWT

$NVCR, Premarket, Trading, Results

$NVCR Premarket up 60% on news.

I traded $NVCR in momo open for small paper cut and $XIV flat to start day, then $AKTX for a small 160.00 win, then $AKTX for a -460.00 loss and $XIV for a 1535.00 win so I was up 1235.00 on the day not including my swing plays. Tough day actually.

I found most of the momentum stocks ran in premarket so market open was tough to say the least and then when I did lock on a momentum it liquidity and power would dry up.

So today was about trade size management and risk loss management.

The two I wish I would have hit that were both on my watchlist was the oil $USOIL $WTIC related short in $DWT or $DWTI (our algorithm had it set perfectly for me) and $MMEX I had on watch and should have never missed.

ANY EARLY TRADER should strongly consider the video snippets on YouTube from today’s session EVEN THOUGH we had a problem with mic quality and echo and the market was not exciting. The management of technicals, indicators and personal emotional intelligence required to execute with-out a loss and a profit on a day like Monday is mega. Not my ego at work there – it takes a lot of work to harness what is required to do that.

So the videos will help you learn how to trade if you are not an expert – I guarantee you.

So I embed one of the videos below, but there is a better one that came at the end of day when I was scaling in to $XIV that Sartaj will be uploading to our YouTube page sometime Tuesday – DO NOT MISS IT if you’re trying to get over the wall! It got very detailed and it has secrets in it – I am telling you, do not miss it if you are struggling with your trade account.

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.

Trading Stocks for Freedom. How I Learned to Get Over the Wall and What May Help You.

A quick post on my stock trading story – the pain I experienced learning how to become a consistently profitable trader and how it may help you in your journey to being part of the “Freedom Traders” club.

Updated July 15, 2018. We have come a long way since this article was originally published. Our first machine trading Generation 1 Algorithm Models are being released at the end of July – it has been an amazing 18 month journey. The last six months we have locked in win rates over 90% (recorded and published live for transparency) and the next six months will be a process of rolling out those new machine models that nearly never lose. And yes, you will have to investigate our results for yourself. The report will be released before the next gen models are at the end of the month (or simply ask for a private tour of our time-stamped, recorded, live alerted trading alerts).

My Trading History in Brief.

I preach never give up w/o hesitation because no matter how long it takes, even if you start back at zero, when you get it, you are free.

I started trading when I was twenty-one (so almost thirty years ago) – things were a little different, but the same too. I worked for a large promoter on the markets.

At twenty-one years old I worked with a team of thirteen that engineered IPO’s from ground up then doing road shows presenting to the investor community the offering. So my learning curve was quick – the inner-mechanics of the markets was intense. But that doesn’t help you “get over the wall” to learning how to be a consistently profitable trader.

I went on to various businesses and over time invested those earnings in to the stock market. “Investing” for me is easy, and should be for anyone in my opinion. “Seeking Alpha” or beating alpha isn’t difficult. Investing is not what this post is about.

Then I went on to Swing Trading with success (you will find my trading set-ups / calls / alerts top shelf triple digit annual returns – all publicly posted, recorded, time-stamped for transparency) – so this isn’t even what I call “that difficult”, although it takes more skill / study than investing.

I then went on to daytrading and algorithmic modeling and more recently in 2018 machine trading with significant success ratio, again recorded, time-stamped, live alerted results nearing high 90% win rates depending on the financial instrument (more on that on our website).

And more recently I have looked at taking on options and shorting more – but that’s a whole other topic.

What Got Me Over the Wall to Freedom Trading.

WHERE MY INFLECTION POINT CAME was when I started trading algorithmic model trading. In other words, I went from a 60% win rate (variable with wild swings in performance) to between 60% to 97% (yes near 100% in most categories and few instruments now less than 80%. With oil related for example I have a near 97% hit win rate, again all publicly shared for transparency, recorded and time-stamped).

So what was it about getting in to algorithmic modeling that changed my win rate?

Simple, it became vivid that having a “process” that I can “rely on” over a series of trades “always” had me on the winning side (over-all). That overall winning (over a series of trades) then provides the “confidence” needed to execute trades without “emotion”.

So it isn’t the algo charting that did it – it was the understanding of technical set-ups (the structure of the chart representing the financial instrument) that did it and knowing that if I compromise the “process” I would lose.

So I now have a process I refer to as PTPTRR. Price, Trigger, Power, Trade, Risk, Reward. More on this in a future post.

I Blew Up Two Accounts – Bad! Very, Very Bad and VERY Painful.

I will tell you that late in my trading life – long after I was twenty-one and a noobie, long after I was investing and swing trading, I blew up two accounts and I blew them up bad at a very bad time in my life. Learning how to day-trade was excruciatingly painful – my wins were huge and my losses even bigger.

Read somewhere that becoming a successful Professional Trader is akin to becoming a Brain Surgeon … degree of difficulty is very high

When I blew up two accounts it was during a time in my life where I couldn’t lose, I couldn’t gamble the nest-egg I had – but I did. I literally gambled my whole life (and the financial well being of my family). I was all in (at least 90% all in on the first blow up), and it wasn’t long ago. I took 90% of our wealth and gambled and lost. THEN! To make matters worse I took the last 10% and did the same. True story. Very painful.

So I had two choices, learn how to really trade (vs. long swings and investing which I know isn’t the wealth building vehicle I was looking for) or put my tail between my legs and go back to normal life as a loser (a loser as far as I’m concerned – I’m stubborn).

So I figured it out. And since then, I have publicly traded every trade with transparency to possibly help others along on the journey. It’s a karma thing for me. And I know I know I get people asking, well why do you charge etc… but if you knew the overhead in our start-up you’d be like… oh I get it. We’re simply trying to fund the lift of a democratized platform that we think will be increasingly valuable for the average trader not just for learning on their journey but we see a future not far off that will leave many behind (the rise of the machines). So it’s a bit of a Robin Hood thing. I know, sounds corny but that’s what it is (a give-back thing is our motivation – a few computer scientists and entrepreneurs).

Five years (mark this tweet) u will not find a winning trader that has not embraced #AI #IA Machine Intelligent Assisted Trading. It’s already here. And I’m not talking about the cheap rip you off bots retail can buy. Retail can’t buy the real service. They won’t sell it to you.

A quick note here… we have given up on the idea of the general retail market helping to fund our platform and mission to bring world class machine trading to the everyday investor… we are still bringing it, in fact we haven’t missed a beat… but retail isn’t coming near funding the costs (at best 2% to date). So how are we funding it? Refer to our win rates, investigate our win rates, roll over those rocks and then you should know how we are funding it. At this point… we are nearly never losing. We’re funding 98% + of this roll-out. And yes, if you’re a retail trader that wants access I believe you should at least put a foot forward (have some skin in the game, even if it is a nominal amount of money). Why? It’s simple, if you don’t have at least some skin in the game it has zero value to you and you should have to reach a bit for it – for it to have any value. It’s a reciprocation thing. And don’t forget, 18 months ago I was exactly where any retail trader is today reading this, we reached, we believed and we’re doing it. We’re just asking for folks to reach a bit. Mark my words here now… when our results are published before the first generation of our new machine trading models are launched at the end of July – everyone, and I mean everyone that looks in to our verified record of alerting trades will know that we just do not lose now – very rare

So in summary (as far as this quick note update today is concerned), we still believe we have a mandate to bring this to the general public but we aren’t trying to push that anymore. If people want to get it they can, if they don’t that’s fine, we’ve let that part go. We are publishing at the end of the month our 2018 results to date and then we are going to absolutely conquer our trading environment over the next six months of 2018.

When 2018 is complete, there will be zero doubt that our transparent roll out and development of competing against the largest most sophisticated trading firms in the world has been a success and we will have been the only team to publicly and transparently share the start up process and spawning and development of that complete process to the general public. None of the other firms in our work have done that. Every single group like ours has either gone dark right from day one or shortly thereafter. This has never been available to the general public.

The last quick note here is that much of our current work (the machine trading generation models being introduced soon) is not transparent – the technology and coding we are using, but the trading alerts and subsequent success etc is shared and the process is shared and always will be transparent. The specific machine trading technology is proprietary and will remain so.

Okay back to the quick story…

So I will spare you the very painful details of the story – but I can say without a doubt short of losing a loved one or experiencing a divorce it was the most painful part of my life. Changed almost everything.

But learning how to trade with consistency, knowing that you are going to be on the winning side also can change everything — it is literally financial freedom (and with that many other freedoms), even if you lose it all and start at zero. It is something nobody can take away from you and it is yours for life and that equals freedom – maybe not today, but freedom is then inevitable. It is only time.

How to Always be on the Winning Side in Trading – Getting over the Wall.

Below I will share a few pointers or rules that I used to get over the wall, but the truth is the topic is massive. Because it is a series of disciplines and everybody is at a different place in their learning, I will simply share a few key pointers below.

This week we have decided to start sharing every trade I execute via short video posted to YouTube and copied to our social media feeds on Twitter, StockTwits, Facebook, Google+ etc. Then learning traders can view these shortly after they occurred intra-day. We do record our complete trading room session also FYI and to see them live you need to be in the room. But if you are not for whatever reason you’ll be able to view the videos near real-time and they will be snippets (1 min to 5 min videos) that will explain every detail possible of the set-up, process during the trade and closing the trade out and why. This will be our method of helping other folks over that wall to freedom.

A Few Things That Helped Me Trade for Consistent Profit.

Number 1: You need a process that over a series of trades always puts you on the winning side.

You will never win every trade, and in fact I know traders that win less than they lose, but their winners are better than their losers.

For example, I have a swing trading process (see my most recent Swing Trading Quarterly P/L Review), I have a day trading process (see my most recent Day Trading Quarterly P/L Review), we have an Algorithmic Chart Modeling Trading Process (the Quarterly Report will be out soon – and it destroys my day-trading and swing trading results), and then I have my personal trading account trades that I don’t share because I use it for high risk representing a small percentage of my trades (I wouldn’t want to encourage others in that way or be responsible for that) and I also use it for learning (options and shorting and the like). BTW I can trade along any averagely decent options or short seller, but I don’t want to share it with the public until it is locked in and extremely predictable (again I don’t want to be responsible for the possible losses).

So get a process! How do you get a process? Well from folks like us, learning on your own, or various other ways I suppose. Be cautious that the service you pick suits your personality and goals, and be sure you investigate it well (I get notes daily about how much folks spend for services and feel guilty because it was either misguided or didn’t fit with their goals). Check their calls, back check all of their calls and see if they are successful. Be sure the calls are transparent with time stamps. Talk to their clients.

What is my process? My process is structured trading. I know the natural trading structure of each instrument I trade. This process is also my edge and frankly with-out this “tool” – structured trading, it will be very difficult for any trader in the near future to win. The machines are here and it will require a change in the mindset of traders. But here again, more on that in a future post.

But the bottom line remains the same, structured trading wins. I am updating this post today (July 15, 2018) while we I am reviewing our profit loss performance statements… the results from the last six months are stunning. We are releasing them soon (before the end of July when our next Generation Machine Trading Algorithm models are released). The point is…. you can’t compete with a trader that knows the natural historical trading structure of a financial instrument over all time frames (from 1 minute charting to weekly). It just isn’t possible to outperform that trader (the intelligently assisted trader #IA) – with the only exception being the machine. I can’t beat the machines. But I employ them to help me.

There is a reason our win rate is so high. Ask for a tour of our live swing trading or oil trading alert feeds (that are time stamped) – you will see win rates in the high 90% range over the last six months and we welcome folks to visit our free public chat room to ask around about our performance. We put it out in the open. Swing trading and oil trading are our best results being over 90% but our other instruments are also doing exceptionally well also – just not as high.

All that winning alert feed success can be directly attributed to a winning process, that we have near perfected that is in our instance what we call structured trading. Knowing the historical structure on all time frames of the financial instrument that we are trading (assisted by machine data and charting) provides us an edge over the majority of traders in the marketplace.

Number 2: You need risk management. You cannot be a consistently great trader without extreme discipline in risk management.

This post was motivated by the many replies I got on the weekend to a simple tweet (that became a series of tweets) about the pain one goes through to get up over the wall and to the side of freedom in trading. It actually touched me, seriously. The number of folks that messaged me about their stories blew me away. I was an emotional a wreck, and risk management (next to the importance of a “process” seemed to be a consistent theme).

Risk management is knowing where your risk reward lies before you enter a trade and adhering to that with-out fail. Now, I compromise this myself at times, primarily however because as conditions change I will change my threshold. But, you HAVE TO KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING before you start flexing on this rule. Study out risk management online because this is intended only as a brief post.

Number 3: Turn off the noise.

Did you know that many of the people telling you about great stock picks on television etc are paid to or have paid the broadcaster for the opportunity to do that? In one way or another there is a payment transfer, it doesn’t have to be in direct payment for service form either. I personally have been invited to a number of programs, I did one recently on premarket show with Benzinga see: PreMarket Prep for December 30: Wrapping up 2016 with our best call of the year, and since I haven’t done one (we have many that have asked – especially to look at our algorithms). I do have some others booked and will do them in the future, but I am being selective for this very reason.

So I won’t get in to all the details, but media (all things considered) should be at best a very light part of your study. You need to know your basic technical information and set-ups – the fundamentals aren’t as important because stops deal with that. Get your technical set-ups in order. Hence why we are going to start publishing every trade intra-day for traders.

Number 4: You need a good home – a trading coach, mentor, trading room or newsletter service (with coaching add-on).

The number of traders (in our service and out) that DM, email or message me in some form daily is becoming astronomical. And I do everything I can to respond to each and every one daily. I say this not to be like oh I am so important, I say this to say that I know with-out a doubt that the average learning trader needs a coach. Good coaches aren’t cheap but they will bring you return (or value) that nothing else can.

Short of that, get in to a good trading room or get a newsletter service set-up that will help you with technical set-ups. When people ask me what I do I tell them I do oil changes. Seriously I do. Why? Because it’s the same. You take your car in for an oil change because it is more efficient or it brings a value to you and that’s why you go. You’d rather spend 50.00 on the oil change than do it yourself. That’s what a newsletter service will do for you – for the 50.00 or 300.00 a month or whatever, it will provide you the free time to do other things while someone else is doing the grunt work compiling technical set-ups for you.

Number 5 – Emotional Intelligence.

What is emotional intelligence? Emotional intelligence is simply the identification, tracking and management of your emotions. Emotional intelligence is much more important to your trading success than your IQ because what you do is inexorably connected to how you feel. In other words, emotions are organizing principles of our human system and they cannot be separated from us. In fact, they are, to a large degree, what makes us human as as such this is directly attached to your success or failure as a trader.

Again, because this post is simply a brief I encourage you to research emotional intelligence and what expert traders have to say about it. Study, study, study.

There it is… emotional intelligence. The nemesis I had to beat. Great tweet.

Number 6. Trading With Transparency

Last but not least, in fact I think for me was most important, was when I started trading with transparency. I started publishing trades in trading rooms in 2015 that I was investigating (when I was learning how to daytrade vs. swing trading and investing).

Then in 2016 I began posting my trades in and out to Twitter and Stocktwits and later in 2016 to our service.

Now I post my trades all over the place haha – I have to be cautious how I do that because we have subscribers, but I trade live in our room and post trades to social and our blog. I even post our trading room footage and a transcript daily to Youtube and our blog.

And this week Sartaj will be taking each of my trades and posting them intraday to Youtube and our social networks. This will cause me to have to be more verbal (I have a fear of public speaking) but I will learn. My goal is to broadcast everything I can think of in each trade fo that each video snippet will be very detailed for trader’s learning.

There are many more points or “rules” to trading (number 7 would have been stay away from morning momo stock plays haha).

In Closing

That is it for now. I will write more on this topic in the near future.

It is Sunday and we’re in the lab processing our weekly Swing Trading newsletter, running the charting algorithms for our six models in Oil, $SPY, $VIX, Gold, Silver and the US Dollar and I have to get ready for a big week in the trading room.

We are after all stepping it up a notch in that we are not only publishing the trading room video and transcript at the end of each day going forward – WE ARE PUBLISHING EVERY TRADE to our social networks right after they occur intra-day all day every day for now on! That is a big deal! Why? Because I believe it will be a primary way that traders desiring with all their will to get over the freedom wall, will in fact have another important tool in that endeavor! You can’t follow another’s trade but you can certainly crack open their method and make it yours!

Don’t follow other people’s trades. You don’t know their position size, time frame, stop loss, or exit strategy.

Message me anytime with your story or questions – I WOULD LOVE to hear the stories. I’m being serious here, I have never been that guy, but there is something about this, helping others get over that wall that has seriously inspired me to action.

Peace and best.

Curtis
