The Quarterly Swing Trading Performance Review P/L with Charting is Published. The Algorithms Quarterly Performance Reports are being compiled as I write and will be posted soon.
$SPY (at key support), $GLD, $GDX (Gold above 200 MA at test Fib resistance and Miner’s testing 200 MA resistance), $USOIL, $WTIC (in upward channel) BUT has come off key resistance area and is testing extreme lower side of uptrending channel (support)..
Most holds are small to mid size holds in this order according to sizing – $DUST, $DWT, $ONTX, $XOM, $NE, $ASM, $SSH, $LGCY, $TRCH, $ESEA, $MGTI, $LIGA
Market Outlook :
Per recent reports:
There are significant resistance clusters above recent highs in oil and the S&P so I will be very cautious to upside going forward until recent highs are taken out and confirmed. I see significant upside challenges in Oil and SPY with most recent highs being taken out.

If you are new to our trading service you should review recent blog posts, our YouTube Channel and at minimum our algorithm Twitter feeds because they do tell a story in terms of the market and how the inflections of the market determine our day to day trading. You will notice the algorithmic modelling has been undeniably accurate with many time-frames (intra-day, weeks and months out) so I myself have learned to respect their math (they have taken me from a 60% hit rate to 80% in my trading – all publicly posted live trades).
I do trade morning momo stocks, but I do avoid risk – so often I avoid the first 30 minutes (gap and go) and trade momentum stocks later in the day after the wash-out looking for a snap-back. Just prior to open and shortly after open I post momentum stocks to the trade chat room (and Twitter and Stocktwits if I have time).
Some of my Favorite Set-Ups:
(1) Momentum Stock Wash-Outs for Snap Back, (2) Bad News Wash-outs on Stocks with High Institutional Ownership, (3) Getting on the Right Side of a Trend Change and scaling in my position and (4) Our Algorithm Set-Ups.
The momentum stocks (from previous days and morning trade) I continue to watch through the day for indicators that allow a trade.
Morning Stock Watch-Lists for my Favorite Set-Ups:
(1) Pre-Market Gainers Watch-List : $SNGX 44%, $MLSS 14%, $RARE $IMGN $NVLS $TXMD $SRNE $LRCX $NLST $JDST $IDXG $MT $UGAZ $ING $LYG $DUST $GOGL $AKS I will update before market open or refer to chat room notices.

For new readers, a review of our unlocked posts on our blog would help you get in to the story we are following with the securities listed in this newsletter.
Free scanners to find momentum stocks that you can easily review charts of for indicators that bring probability of your trade being successful up considerably. These are not useful for first 30 minute market open gap and go type plays (you need a good momentum scanner, level 2, and best to have hot-keys for the first 30 mins of gap and go trading)… but are very useful for intra day scalping and swing trading (start with trending stocks and then look at indicators intra for simple set-ups – study scan study scan study scan).

Premarket was in $CBLI $WPRT $HTGM and then on the day leader-board included $CBLI, $MOCO, $SCON, $SCON, $WKHS, $ALR and a few others. On OTC side it was $MMEX running mad.
$CLBI up 141% Members is the room have a homerun on this today. I missed ha. They held right from open. Nice play.
I took a small paper-cut on $CBLI at open, took a small long in $LIGA and added a 2nd position long to $DUST (inverse Gold play – short Gold miner’s actually $GDX) and now I am in 2/5 size $DUST at 1000 shares.
$DUST Gold Miner Bear has some momentum today. $NUGT $JDST $JNUG $GDX
And our MEMBERS HIT $CBLI OUT OF THE PARK!!! I say that because I talk to members and they tell me when they enter and exit even if they don’t publish publicly etc and there were some massive wins I MEAN MASSIVE – one win was over 50,000.00 on that one daytrade. They held right from open all the way to the end of the day. I’ve identified five members that are up over 200% so far this year!!! Way outperforming myself at about 50% YTD.
$CLBI up 141% Members is the room have a homerun on this today. I missed ha. They held right from open. Nice play.

Watch the premarket, the market open and the mid day chart set-up reviews available on video that are in this post above if you are struggling to trade consistently for a profit.
Some days it’s more important to know when not to pull the trigger than it is to know when to pull the trigger. Lots of chop at open today.
Some days it's more important to know when not to pull the trigger than it is to know when to pull the trigger. Lots of chop at open today.
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.
NOTICE: I AM SO UPSET because Sartaj and I both forgot to copy the transcript mid day – the stupid platform we are testing requires us to copy and paste it so we have a copy for this everyday. They don’t have an automatic back up. Stupid. Anyway, so we have to literally copy and paste a copy every two hours or it’s gone forever they say. Dumb. The point is we missed most the morning by the time we did it. But of course there is the video above. Ugh.
Sartaj: I know Curt is with me on this one, but if you are in here just to follow trades, you are likely in the wrong room
Sartaj: Welcome, David
Sartaj: I might also add that the Post-Market Report includes a chat transcript, which is disseminated over social media and on the blog (www.compoundtrading.com/blog) everyday after-hours, as well as a full video on our youtube channel of the broadcast day
Sartaj: So you have a couple of options in terms of being able to read when entries and exits were on trades
Curt M: $LIGA http://finance.yahoo.com/news/lig-assets-inc-announces-creation-164349498.html?.tsrc=rss
sspeixc572: The wrong room?!?! The great trade results on your home page is what attracted me in the first place.
Sartaj: You misunderstand me. You can watch the lead trader perform trades, that’s your prerogative, but there are a slew of reasons why we don’t encourage members to just sit there following the alerts. The trade results are meant to highlight the application of the trading discipline being applied here. So yes, while they may be attractive, it’s not an excuse to discard your own sense of risk management, what kind of positions you’d like to take, etc.
Curt M: $LIGA So bullish
Sammy: Taking a long on break-out if it comes here intra
MarketMaven: It is a decent set-up with news and lots of room
sspeixc572: You misunderstand me. At know point have I ever endorsed discarding my own sense of risk management or what kind of positions I’d like to take.
sspeixc572: know = no
Sartaj: And as you can see, part of it is contributing to the discussion – although that is optional, of course. I’m just being upfront with you that you can’t expect the proverbial pump-and-dumping that other chat rooms are privy to. We bring in guest analysts, run chart reviews like the one you just saw, review algorithmic charting as appropriate. We have had a problem with the nature of some of our members’ goals in the past
sspeixc572: Well that sounds good.
lenny: $CBLI super bullilsh too wow
Sartaj: Glad we cleared the air there, then. We are more than happy to help, but the last times we have had people asking about alerts, there was a huge gap in what their expectations were from us. Just FYI, so, didn’t mean to assume there
Curt M: The vol is decent too and Stoch RSI pointing up guys wow
Curt M: Watch the 100% mark
MarketMaven: Running that long on confirmed break of 100%
Curt M: $INFI watch for that Stoch RSI to turn up – very bullish also here
Sartaj: Let me know if you ever need help finding anything, I know it can be a lot of navigate through sometimes: [email protected]
MarketMaven: Starting long test position $LIGA for break 10% size
Sammy: Long $LIGA also same format as Maven
Curt M: Things just got bullish it seems
sspeixc572: Bought some LIGA .0074
Curt M: Starting to leg in with you guys on $LIGA small and not alerting until it confirms and I hit it for real
Curt M: It’s gonna go, its just a matter if its today or not
Curt M: Some of the longer term holders may have to rotate out with profits – or not – I guess we’ll see
Flash G: Even though I don’t trade OTC it does say bull
Flash G: MACD is up on daily guys and gals
lenny: $CERU tape action but not my things
lenny: Stoch RSI on 3 min on $LIGA says maybe some down before up and if so I’ll hit my major entry when it hits bottom and curls (if it does today)
Flash G: Opening new long position in $TOL
Flash G: 1/4 size on swing $TOL – add on dips
OILK: Looking for entry on $PLUG for an overnight
OILK: $AAPL car $NEON maybe too CNBC
Sammy: Stoch RSI gonna curl up here on 3 min on $LIGA – may be time to wack it soon here.
Flash G: $SNAP at technical support
Flash G: Curt, your $BA call a while back on swing platform was perfect timing FYI
Flash G: Looks like they’re millkking the sentiment angle well
Flash G: Savvy did you go short?
sspeixc572: In ELED for a quick bounce
Flash G: Curt, ,our $AMZN…. thinking I my lighten 30%. What a fantastic trade,
MarketMaven: Long $CBLI 3000 3.146
Don: $PLUG looks reslly good here
Curt M: Looks to me like Tuesday is the big break-out day. Everything setting up today.
Flash G: Yes, that’s what is most likely.
sspeixc572: My ELED pick doing spectacularly so far
Curt M: Slowest day in a long time for me.
Curt M: Nice work on $ELED
sspeixc572: thanks!
sspeixc572: Will probably sell at/near VWAP
Curt M: VWAP may stop it but hmmm good play for sure
MarketMaven: Yepp
Sammy: $SCON on the move today but not aggressive on the move
Ned: $SCON b/o looks real
MarketMaven: 2:30 need some plays soon or it’s plan for tomorrow $STUDY
Ned: true
Sandra: been a $STUDY all day for me lololol
Flash G: slowest day we’ve had in the room has – have some decent earnings chart set-ups ready tho
Flash G: should be some good swing trading entries this week on earnings
Flash G: $SPY trading sure looks like a confirmation for higher tomorrow IMO
MarketMaven: $LEDS and $SCON high on my watchlist now.
Sammy: $SCON tape is interesting Maven
MarketMaven: I was just going to say ADDING $CLBI
MarketMaven: Power hour may as well give it a whirl
Curt M: Really consistent price action Maven good call on it
OptionSavvy: imo SPY anything less than about 234.50 is a sell
Flash G: $PTI new HOD
Flash G: thought you might like that Len and Maven
OILK: In $PTI
OILK: for a while now
OILK: Wn’t hold it o/n
Curt M: Looking at an add to $DUST

sspeixc572: Is $LIGA ever going to make a move before the close?

Don: Holding 50% $CBLI guys to see if I can get a little more
Don: oh nice its goin
Don: Rolled some of my gains it to $SCON

Curt M: Well…. without giving away any names there’s a group in here if you check back on the transcripts are up well over 200% this year. Not bad I must say. 4x my ROI.
Curt M: I just tweeted it lol
Curt M: you guys deserve some praise i would say – very humble
MarketMaven: Good vibes.
Flash G: Curt, long $NFLX before close:)
Curt M: I don’t do that.
Don: Time to pull shoot on $CBLI KAPOWZA WOWZA out and done.

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.
Even though we post my trades and trading room transcript and video daily (which has been a massive time investment lol) starting Monday…
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.
Took a paper cut on first Crack at bat this morning on $NVCR with 10% size test.
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.
Today is about position sizing and risk management for me. Go figure. A winner in $XIV this afternoon and a loser in $AKTX. #daytrading
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.
$MMEX OTC up 90% today. Straight from trading plan. BUT…… I was distracted. Yes, I am that guy. Fark. 🤔
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.
$SPY. To rip or not to rip. Conventional charting says it's ready 👌. Great post.⤵ Our models see challenges but doesn't mean it won't rip. https://t.co/O0QWqqn6nH
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.
