Hello swing traders! Welcome to Compound Trading Swing Trading Keep It Simple K.I.S.S. Charting Review (Public Edition) for the week of April 2, 2017! This edition focuses on MACD, Stochastic RSI, Moving Averages, SQZMOM and a few others.

Email us at [email protected] anytime with any questions about any of the swing trades listed below. Or, if we get bogged down private message Curtis in trade room or direct message him on Twitter. Market hours are tough but we endeavor to get back to everyone after market each day.

Notices:

Members please refer to the member publications for more detail – THIS WEEK has a lot of indecision so we will detail set-ups for you on tighter time-frames and show you specifically what triggers long and short.

Introduction:

My perspective of the markets can be summarized as go long when you can until it breaks (and I do believe there is a break on the horizon but it doesn’t do you any good to wait around for corrections). The “it can gap down” philosophy has not been on the winning side historically. So we swing trade with managed risk with stops and proper discipline.

Understanding what the simple indicators are for the entry and exit in your trading position in a swing trade is critical – proper entries and exits can not only increase your win rate but also significantly impact your personal investment portfolio return on investment, thus a critical discipline to at least become moderately familiar. The buy and hold concept has served investors moderately well for some time, but even so, they could have do so much better with very little time invested.

Thanking you in advance.

This Week’s Simple Charts include MACD, Moving Averages (MA), Stochastic RSI and a custom Squeeze Momentum Indicator (SQZMOM) for the US Dollar, USDJPY, Volatility, Gold, Gold Miners, Silver, Crude Oil and the S&P 500. Below are daily charts and some charts include the hourly or even 5 minute charting perspective.

The secret to Swing Trading successfully is understanding and executing Price Trigger Power Trade Risk Reward PTPTRR

A quick word about this discipline before you review the charts below. If you understand the disciplines involved in swing trading, more specifically PTPTRR then good for you! If you do not, I encourage you to learn the discipline before swing trading. You can of course search online the specifics of the discipline or ask us to assist. Either way, a few hours of focused / directed study will go a long way to ensuring that risk reward is always on your side.

The charts below can be used to achieve a very hassle free return on investment as long as you understand the above principles to trading. This will bring your trading in to a predictable process driven realm. Trust us, it lowers stress and provides investing enjoyment instead of it being a negative learning experience.

In short “Price” is simply the price action and target buy or exit of each trade. The “Trigger” is when the indicators have lined up and price has moved in the direction of and confirmed an entry. “Power” is buying or selling action. And a defined “Risk Reward” is knowing in advance what your plan is and it is a scientific process, not random.

I (the lead trader at Compound Trading) published a blog post today that hopefully will encourage you to learn the disciplines required – you can find it here When You Learn It – You Are Free (Part 1 of Freedom Traders). My Stock Trading Story.

Mar 12, 2017 – The Stoch RSI hasn’t cooled, in fact it has heated since last report. Also below is the MACD, it’s near pinching so it may be best to take a short position soon and flip to long when MACD turns to buy signal.

$XRT – SPDR S&P Retail ETF

Mar 27 – Double bottom test in progress on high watch now.

Mar 19 – Sames status as Mar 12.

Mar 12, 2017 – The Stoch RSI is starting to pinch at bottom of range (see Mar 7 chart), MACD is still on sell however. On close watch here.

$XRT, chart, MACD, SwingTrading — $XRT MACD still on sell but Stoch RSI (see other chart) is pinching at bottom of range. On watch.

Mar 7, 2017 – Watching close for a bounce. Stoch RSI on chart is near bottom so on high watch here.

Feb 27, 2017 – Trading at 43.72 this beat up sector seems to be ripe for a bounce. If we execute a trade on Monday it will be to test the waters and watch the market sentiment day to day – this and price action will determine how long we are in it. An interim target however would be 46.80 and would likely change as the trade progresses.

$XRT Retail Live Chart – https://www.tradingview.com/chart/0oELdpX1/

$XRT, Swing, Trading — $XRT Retail – Watching close for a bounce.

$EXP Building Materials

March 27 – 100 MA failed. Watching.

March 19 – Same status but on high watch for MACD because 100 MA held.

March 12, 2017 – $EXP Eagle Building Materials MACD still on sell, but expanding volume in play with 100 MA test. On watch for bounce.

$EXP, MACD, Chart, SwingTrading — $EXP Eagle Building Materials MACD still on sell, but expanding volume in play with 100 MA test. On watch for bounce.

Mar 7, 2017 – $EXP Building Materials watching close for a bounce.

Feb 27, 2017 – “Eagles Materials Posted Record Revenues, Record Net Earnings and Record Net Earnings per Diluted Share. Its stock grew 60% in 2016 and still looks cheap.”

Eagle Materials is a riskier play than most we will add to our swing portfolio, but our DD on this one has us excited and we likely will take a long position early this week with a target of minimum 10% upside in next 90 days. We will however keep our stop tight.

$FIT

Mar 27 – Same.

Mar 19 – Same status as Mar 12. This one may never come back.

Mar 12, 2017 – $FIT FitBit Under 9 MA, MACD pinch, no volume expansion yet. On high watch.

$FIT, Chart, SwingTrading — $FIT FitBit Under 9 MA, MACD pinch, no volume expansion yet. On high watch.

Mar 7, 2017 – It hasn’t got its bounce yet – still watching. Trading at 6.00.

Feb 27, 2017 – We find the $FIT trade interesting. Although we would never otherwise consider it and if we do enter today a long position it will be looked at as short term, we think there may be opportunity to swing trade it because it should be much lower considering its recent quarter… lower in that we expected a panic that did not occur. This seems bullish, or at minimum a likely “bargain” in our opinion.

$FIT Swing Trade Target 6.99. Trading at 6.15.

$VFC

Mar 27 – Hold. Trading at 54.06

Mar 19 – Trading at 53.95 holding position long. Next test 100 MA crossing 20 MA. No adds yet.

Mar 12, 2017 – $VFC Holding but trade tentative as MACD pinching and declining volume.

$VFC, SwingTrade, MACD — $VFC Holding but trade tentative as MACD pinching and declining volume.

Mar 12, 2017 – $VFC Quarterly Swing Trading Performance Review. Long Feb 23 53.50 500 Shares. Unrealized loss 785.00. #SwingTrading

$VFC, Swing, Trade — $VFC Quarterly Swing Trading Performance Review. Long Feb 23 53.50 500 Shares. Unrealized loss 785.00.

Mar 7, 2017 – Holding long per Feb 23, 2017.

Feb 23, 2017 – $VFC Swing long 53.50 average with 58.10 as first upside target. More targets in upcoming reports.

$NE – Noble Corp

Mar 27 – Hold. Trading 5.38

Mar 19 – It’s a bad trade but the MACD is so close to the bottom that we are holding for a bounce. One of our few bad swings in 2017.

Mar 12, 2017 – $NE Trade has turned against us with a sell signal on MACD. Holding on conviction. We believe it is near over-sold and this sector of the industry is near a turn in profit divergence.

Mar 12, 2017 – $NE Quarterly Swing Trading Performance Review. Long Feb 22 6.95 2000 Shares. Unrealized loss 1920.00. Hold.

$NE, Swing, Trade — $NE Quarterly Swing Trading Performance Review. Long Feb 22 6.95 2000 Shares. Unrealized loss 1920.00. Hold.

$NE Swing long 6.95 average for a 9.00 upside target.

Alphabet (Google) $GOOGL, $GOOG

Mar 27 – 863.99 Closed position Mar 21 when previous high was lost. On watch for MACD turn.

Mar 19 – Trading at 872.37 holding – looking for dips to possibly add. MACD flat so this is a concern.

$GOOGL, Swing, Trading — $GOOGL Going well. Our Swing Trading Members are in it from 848.91 trading at 872.37. #swingtrading

Mar 12, 2017 – $GOOGL Swing trade going well. In at 848.91 – holding and adding on dips (will advise). MACD on buy.

$GOOGL, Swing Trade — $GOOGL Quarterly Swing Trading Performance Review. Long Feb 22 848.91 200 Shares. Unrealized gain 2570.00. Hold.

Mar 7, 2017 – Holding long per Feb 22, 2017. Trading at 847.27.

Feb 22, 2017 – We entered a long position starter at 848.91 200 shares. Stops will be managed manually and will be held tight until trade is to upside of current range. Pensive about short term market range.

Feb 21, 2017 – Price is to the topside of the break-out and I will likely enter a long position over the next day or two. Bullish on this stock.

Feb 12, 2017 – We still like the $GOOGL stock / chart. Price recently broke to the upside of the triangle and didn’t hold but is threatening to trade above again at Friday close. We’re watching for an upside break that holds for an entry or a visit to the 200 MA (pink line) for an entry.

Feb 7, 2017 Member Update: We expect a signal from the Trump camp soon (late this week), and if positive, this will be a very strong play – watch close! This needs to be high on your radar going forward!

We like this chart. Watch for an upside break out of the triangle. The principles apply the same to $GOOG and $GOOGL charts fyi. Also, watch the MACD close, it looks primed for a move. Earnings are Thursday. If price breaks to downside I will update with levels to watch. Also, the is a chart below that shows upside target.

Amazon $AMZN

Mar 27 – Hold trading at 845.39. Mar 21 lost 20 MA and almost sold but did not. Loss of 20 MA is a concern. Watching for 50 MA failure.

Mar 19 – Trading 852.31 holding. MACD pinching to downside so this is a concern.

Mar 12, 2017 – $AMZN Amazon Swing Trade going well. In at 822.72 trading 852.46. MACD on sell will add when MACD bottoms and turns (will advise).

$AMZN, Swing Trade, MACD — $AMZN Amazon Swing Trade going well. In at 822.72 trading 852.46. MACD on sell will add when MACD bottoms and turns.

Mar 12, 2017 – $AMZN Quarterly Swing Trading Performance Review. Long Feb 10 822.72 100 Shares. Unrealized gain 2930.00. Hold.

$AMZN, Swing Trade, Quarterly, Review — $AMZN Quarterly Swing Trading Performance Review. Long Feb 10 822.72 100 Shares. Unrealized gain 2930.00. Hold.

Mar 7, 2017 – Holding long and may add on dips now. Trading at 846.46.

Feb 21, 2017 – Trading at 839.48 in premarket we’re on the right side of this swing so far. Depending on price action I will look to add at pull backs. Very bullish this stock.

Feb 12, 2017 – Trade Alert! We entered a trade long at a cost average 822.72 for 100 shares as soon as price was upside the 20 MA. This is an aggressive trade (being that we didn’t wait for a pull-back to 50, 100 or 200). We have a tight stop on the trade at 804.00 (just below its recent low (this would be a broken trade in our opinion at that point). So we are hoping this week is a strong week for Amazon. If not our aggressive move will cost us.

Amazon Swing Trading Live Chart: https://www.tradingview.com/chart/AMZN/ZQt7CJMs-AMZN-Amazon-Swing-Trading-Member-Chart/

Feb 7, 2017 Member Alert! We haven’t got a pull back to the 200 day and depending on how tech does with Trump we may or may not, however, in overnight trade (premarket) price is close to the 100 day and I may take a test long position. This is one of our favorite picks so we will be quite aggressive with our attempts to get in at an inflection – so we are thinking sometime in the next few days looks decent.

My fourth priority is Amazon. I don’t want to over simplify this trade – but the bottom line is I’m looking for a pull-back and an entry as close to that 200 day (pink line with green arrow) as possible. I don’t think this stock will stop anytime soon. DD to follow soon.

Juno $JUNO

Mar 27 – No Change.

Mar 19 – No change.

Mar 12 – Member Alert! We will look at a re-entry on this when MACD turns back up!

Feb 21, 2017 – On Feb 16 we closed our position at 23.88.

Feb 12, 2017 – We have been long since late December at 18.32 (1000 shares) and it trades at 21.95 now – will be ratcheting up stops soon, the trade has done well but in the short term we don’t see a lot of upside for entries now, unless trade returns to the 50 day MA.

$JUNO Another Swing Trade Winner. Swing Trade Member Stock Pick is up 20%.

Swing, Trade, Stock, Pick, $JUNO — $JUNO Another Swing Trade Winner. Swing Trade Member Stock Pick is up 20%.

Feb 7, 2017 Member Update: $JUNO since my first entry mid December 2016 has consistently moved in an upward trend, and from that perspective has been a good stock pick. But it hasn’t been excellent like many of my other picks. It does have a gap fill coming soon so if you are long I would ratchet up your stops as you near 22.70 area.

CombiMatrix Corp $CBMX

Mar 27 – No Change

Mar 19 – No Change

Mar 12 – Member Alert! We will look at a re-entry on this when MACD turns back up!

Feb 22, 2017 – We closed our long positions in late trade and extended hours at 5.01 average.

Feb 21, 2017 – It is trading at 3.90 in premarket and recently as high as 4.23. Holding.

Feb 12, 2017 – This stock hasn’t slowed down since our entry at 2.59 (10000 shares) and doesn’t seem to want to return to the trendline support so our swing trade members can get in. It is trading perfectly in our prescribed range (albeit at the top) and closed at 3.90 on Friday – we have a 5.57 PT on it so I don’t if it is best to enter now – I wouldn’t unless it returns to the support line but some of the more aggressive swing trading members may want to consider it. Also, we will be ratcheting stops before earnings and even though earnings are expected to be strong we likely will not hold through earnings (or if we do it will be with tight stops).

$CBMX news – http://finance.yahoo.com/news/cbmx-expect-record-revenue-profit-140000918.html

$CBMX Swing Trade Stock Pick Doing Well up 50% Now.

My second priority is $CBMX. I am already in this swing and plan to enter in dips at the diagonal trend line (blue). Initial target area is around 5.57 with much greater potential upside. The Trump factor may cause this to come off a bit so my bias is toward late spring for first price target.

$OAK, MACD, Swing Trade, Watch — $OAK on swing trade high watch now. 200 MA may cross 50 MA. Watch MACD for turn up.

Feb 21, 2017 – We closed our position last week at 46.04 because sentiment in this sector started to turn. We may look at a re-entry, however, we are waiting for the crude oil resistance test to play out and would like to monitor sentiment.

Feb 12, 2017 – This has been a fantastic swing trade and many of our members have profited from it. We are holding and have moved up stops to a 5% drop.

It is currently trading at 45.70 and is up considerably for our members – our 2017 price target was 49.58 and our short term price targets were easily met.

It is also currently trading just above its 200 MA so we are watching close – if it loses the 200 MA we will exit likely. So if you are thinking of adding or a long trade here you want to watch the 200 MA.

$OAK OakTree Capital Group Swing Trading Alert for Members has done well with 25% gains in 2017

Swing, Trade, Stock, Pick, $OAK — $OAK OakTree Capital Group Swing Trading Alert for Members has done well with 25% gains in 2017

Oaktree Capital Group, LLC (OAK) today announced that it will report fourth quarter and full year 2016 financial results prior to the opening of the New York Stock Exchange on Tuesday, February 7, 2017.

http://finance.yahoo.com/news/oaktree-schedules-fourth-quarter-full-133000267.html

Was trading at 37.57 – 38.00 when we originally started to look at it, currently trades at 41.65.

42.71 – 43.50 is our short term swing target (less than 3 months).

Feb 7, 2017 Member Alert! $OAK has met this swing trade target for our members – caution forward please!

49.58 is our 2017 target. No target date.

Our traders will be watching earnings (much like we did with Google last week and we will be doing with Amazon this week). Pending earnings and price action this will be when we enter a trade. Some of our swing traders have obviously seen decent gains since we first put this on our swing trading list a number of weeks back (good timing actually), but our traders have not taken a position yet.

Feb 7, 2017 Member Alert! We never did get that pull back, and I appreciate the notes from members that have done well with this swing nonetheless! However, caution is warranted entering this play with-out a pull-back.

My fifth priority is $SLCA. Again, another simple chart and it will require some patience. I see a pull-back coming and huge upside under the Trump inertia in to summer. I am looking for a pull-back to the 50 day (yellow arrow) or the 100 day preferably (blue arrow). If it gets away on me I’ll likely chase it and scale in 1/5th at a time.

My seventh priority is the VIX. I see a pull-back in the market coming and a lift in VIX. The primary trade I am looking for is actually a short in the VIX when it gets upside it’s bolllinger band (it’s a little more complicated than that – specifically with timing and I will be putting an alert out when I do it anyway) – I’ll also play some short term longs in $TVIX or $UVXY.

Feb 7, 2017 $GDX Alert – Members, this trade went exactly as planned and is now beyond our call so caution please!

My third priority on this list are the miner’s – $GDX and leveraged friends. This one is risky but comes with large gains if miner’s get moving and price breaks in to next quadrant above the yellow one outlined on the chart below. And for the risk taker it can be traded with leveraged ETN’s. There are inherent risks however; one is that price is not at bottom of the trading quadrant so an entry here is not ideal and the obvious issue is the Trump factor.

Mar 27 – See weekly simple chart update. No position. Oil trade under considerable pressure.

https://www.tradingview.com/chart/USOIL/QbYJt8yv-Crude-Oil-Swing-Trading-KISS-Keep-it-Simple-MACD-Wins-FX-USOIL/

Feb 21, 2017 – On the daytrading side I have been adding to a long that I though would be only days and turned in to a bit of a swing but did not alert it on the swing side because of the risk element. However, crude oil is over the resistance in overnight trade as I write and getting very close to the most significant resistance it has encountered in years. Stay tuned to updates this week, I expect to be putting out a number of updates this week because of this specific scenario. If crude does not handle resistance well I will short it heavily and will post a number of picks surrounding that play. If crude oil gets up over this significant resistance then I will go long and will post an alternate list of stock pics surrounding that play.

Feb 12 – Crude oil traded at resistance on Friday, some may opt to short here but we are waiting to see if price breaks to upside. Will advise.

Feb 7, 2017 Update: In overnight trade $USOIL is trading at 52.19 and there is a diagonal support trendline intra-day below at approximately 52.28 – we will be looking at taking a long position in that area if we can get it – with a tight 1% stop.

In overnight lab work our developers established a diagonal trendline (blue line in chart that has a blue arrow pointing at it) that has established itself as strong support. If you take a swing trade against that support (as as close to it as possible) then look to the upside of that white dotted arrow line as your target long. Ratchet up stops there.

Good morning swing traders and welcome to the Compound Trading Weekly Swing Trading stock picks memo (Part 1 of 3) for the week of March 27, 2017! $BABA, $VRX, $NFLX, $WYNN, $URRE, $TAN, $TWLO, $GSIT, $AXP, $ABX, $RIG, $XLE, $SLX, $X, $XME, $AKS and more.

Notices:

Good morning!

It looks like the Trump trade is under fire and as such the new swing trade picks are limited. Also affecting this is that major markets such as oil, the US Dollar, Silver, Gold and more are literally all at either support or resistance. In other words, there is a decision in the market and we’ve entered chop city for at least the near term.

So I have updated positions below and what we are looking for in each and as the market forms a decision we will then publish new picks based on the market decision (we expect very soon).

The following are some of the stocks we are looking to add to our coverage and for now remain on our watchlist only (until this near term decision in markets plays out): $LIT, $CEW, $MYL, $TZA, $TREE, $NVDA, $SOXS, $KBH, $BCOR

Either way, there is plenty of steak on the bone so to speak below for an avid swing trader to get in to with the existing stocks we are covering below – a few on the long side and many more on the short side.

Also, one point of discussion with coaching students lately has been returning to the triggers to use when buying and selling swing trade positions – this becomes vividly important especially in times of market chop.

As such, it is critical to understand the basics of PTPTRR – Price Trigger Power Trade Risk Reward. If you do not understand the basics of these principles you need to either get some quick coaching (usually five hours or less is all that is needed) or study up and research these important skills on your own – BUT do not swing trade until you know the basics of these principles please – thanks!

https://twitter.com/CompoundTrading/status/846144297795694592

Specific to our picks below, we have updated the most important information and will flesh this out more as we go.

Also, click here for a weekly public post on swing trading simple charts for $DXY, $USDJPY, $VIX, $WTI, $GLD, $SLV, $GDX, and $SPY that we will call Part 3 of this weeks picks.

When using live charts as available below, you can either press play button on chart (once opened) for a quick view or click the share icon at the bottom right of chart (just right of the thumbs up symbol) and then click “make it mine” – this will open chart in your browser. Any problems with this let us know. Also, please note, we can only create ten new live charts on TradingView a day so that is why you see some with live charts and over time we publish them.

Indicators on charts are represented as; 20 MA light blue, 50 MA Purple, 100 MA dark blue, 200 MA pink. 8 EMA Yellow, 21 EMA Green. VWAP when available orange.

Any updates below specific to recent reports are highlighted in red to simplify the process for you.

Stock Picks Coverage

$BABA

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.

$NFLX

March 27 – MACD has been flat or turned down since last post. Looking close at MACD turn up and entry this week.

March 20 – The only thing that concerns me is the price staying above approximately 145.05 as a low on any given day. I may also look for that in addition to indicators lists below. Same thing with this one, exit when MACD turning down. Chances are high I will enter long early week.

$NFLX, Swing Trading, Stocks — $NFLX Daily abover 20 MA Stoch RSI Revved MACD turning up SQZMOM watch close for green. Long on MACD and QZMOM confirmation. #swingtrading

$GSIT

Mar 27 – Sure enough, it was on its way to the 20 MA this past week and stopped short and got some lift and close Friday sitting on 8 ema. Will wait for it to line up.

Mar 20 – The reason I have this on the list is because as a break-out stock it is about as clean as they come, however, break out stocks come with risk. So you have two options (and shorting right now isn’t one), you can either wait for it to get near a 20 MA test and go long when other indicators line up or open a short time-frame chart and trade it. I will be waiting for the 20 MA test.

$GSIT in break-out. Daily Stoch RSI peaking, MACD near peak, SQZMOM near peak. Wait for 20 MA retest and MACD confirm for long.

$GSIT, Chart, ,Swing, Trading — $GSIT in break-out. Daily Stoch RSI peaking, MACD near peak, SQZMOM near peak. Wait for 20 MA retest and MACD confirm for long.

$AXP

March 27 – MACD has turned down and SQZMOM is red and negative but Stoch RSI is starting to curl – waiting for that MACD to take an entry.

March 20 – This is a trend play. The only thing you have to do is manage your entry point and risk. Wait for indicators to confirm next leg up about to start and take long entry. When MACD turns down on daily that is your exit. I really like this one, especially because MA’s are all on right side (aligned) and trend reversal is in place.

$AXP Setting up for next possible leg up. Wait for MACD SQZMOM Stoch RSI to turn up. Will likely test near 100 MA at min 50MA.

$AXP, Stock, Swing, Trade — $AXP Setting up for next possible leg up. Wait for MACD SQZMOM Stoch RSI to turn up. Will likely test near 100MA at min 50MA.

$ABX

March 27 – Very close now. SQZMOM just turned green, MA’s are starting to line up but not all yet, Stoch RSI is turned down at top of range so I would like to see it at bottom when we enter and the MACD is turned up. So we’re waiting for the MA’s to line up and the Stoch RSI to be near or at bottom curling up (ideally).

March 20 – I will enter a long when price above 20 50 100 200 MA’s and will likely wait for the 200 MA to cross 100 MA (although not absolute). Like with all others I will exit when MACD turns down.

$ABX Daily MACD turning up, Stoch RSI way up, price on 20 MA, SQZMOM needs to confirm, 200 MA 100 MA cross would help with price above.

$ABX, Swing, Trading, Chart — $ABX Daily MACD turning up, Stoch RSI way up, price on 20 MA, SQZMOM needs to confirm, 200 MA 100 MA cross would help with price above.

$TAN

Mar 27 – $TAN chart is now “broken” and price is on its way to the lower pivot around 16.44. All indicators are pointing to down. It closed Friday at 17.29. So we will keenly watch it as it nears the lower pivot and see if the indicators line up for a long trade. If it lost lower pivot we may even consider a short side entry pending indicators.

Mar 20 – Nice reversal play if it turns out. In addition to below watch the 200 MA as resistance if you go long.

$TAN Reversal Play. Daily MACD needs to turn up, Stoch RSI is up, SQZMOM needs to turn up. 100 MA about to cross 50 MA – bullish.

TAN, Swing, Trade, Stocks — $TAN Reversal Play. Daily MACD needs to turn up, Stoch RSI is up, SQZMOM needs to turn up. 100 MA about to cross 50 MA – bullish.

$VRX

March 27 – $VRX continues stepping down on the chart… per below, really important to wait for all the indicators to line up. So we remain patient and watch.

March 20 – This was looking like it was going to curl up last week and bounce but it failed. A great example of carefully watching a falling knife indicators before taking a long position. Use patience and when all indicators in play take a long.

$VRX Bottom Play. Daily MACD needs to turn, Stoch RSI turning up, SQZMOM needs to turn then as MA cross-overs occur it will strengthen.

$VRX, Swing Trade, Bottom Play — $VRX Bottom Play. Daily MACD needs to turn, Stoch RSI turning up, SQZMOM needs to turn then as MA cross-overs occur it will strengthen.

$TWLO

March 27 – Price failed when it had to poke through 100 MA and continue – it failed and is on its way (possibly) to the previous low. So here, as with $VRX we employ patience – but get ready because the long in this one will be decent. Use the indicators noted below.

March 20 – Looks like bottom may be in. It is trending up. Looking for 100 MA to cross down under 20 MA (pinching now) and price to trade above 20 MA for long. Be sure to wait for MACD to confirm also first.

$TWLO Bottom Play on Watch. 100 MA needs to cross 20 MA with price over them. Stoch RSI pinch, MACD pinch, SQMOM turning up not green.

$TWLO, Swing Trading — $TWLO Bottom Play on Watch. 100 MA needs to cross 20 MA with price over them. Stoch RSI pinch, MACD pinch, SQMOM turning up not green.

$WYNN

March 26 – We took a long position at 110.93 for 500 share start on March 21. HOWEVER, we have a stop at our entry price (due to current market sentiment) and it is currently trading at 111.92. Careful with this one.

March 20 – This isn’t easy to swing but is so hot it would be foolish to ignore, so discipline like with so many other plays in the current market is required. Seeing it hold 110.00 for a full day with indicators in line would put me in a long position.

$WYNN 200 MA needs to cross 100 MA, trade over 110 full day. Stoch RSI peaking, MACD up, SQMOM up.

$WYNN, Swing, Trade — $WYNN 200 MA needs to cross 100 MA, trade over 110 full day. Stoch RSI peaking, MACD up, SQMOM up.

$XME

March 27 – Price action has been poor since last report, the 200 MA is just below price now so we are going to see if the indicators line up for a bounce long position.

March 20 – MACD is pinching and about to turn up, also waiting for price above 20 MA. This is a great looking chart and an argument could be made that a long position before everything lines up as I noted is sound. It’s a great looking chart because MACD is bottom (for clarity), so when it turns if all other indicators look good there should be room for a decent trade. Caution should be noted that now after having gone through a number of charts this evening the market is at a decision so any swing trades should be considered at length and stops should be tight IMO.

$XME Daily MACD pinching, SQZMOM starting to turn, Stoch RSI peaking, Price needs 20 MA

$XME, Swing Trading — $XME Daily MACD pinching, SQZMOM starting to turn, Stoch RSI peaking, Price needs 20 MA

$URRE

March 27 – Almost a replay from last week (the indicators), so we remain patient and watch.

March 20 – Like so many of the charts this week, there is indecision. However, if the indicators line up this has excellent upside potential. The MACD pinching at the bottom is key IMO.

$URRE Daily MACD pinching at bottom, Stoch RSI turn up, SQZMOM needs green, price needs 20 MA.

$URRE, Swing Trading — $URRE Daily MACD pinching at bottom, Stoch RSI turn up, SQZMOM needs green, price needs 20 MA.

Others on watch but not ready to report charting:

$RIG

March 27 – It is holding its 200 MA like a trooper, but I want to see it at least be over 20 MA and other indicators to line up.

March 20 – MACD pinching, watching for it to turn up, Above 200 day but needs to trade above 20 MA for long.

$XLE

March 27 – The 50 has crossed the 100 and the 20 the 200 to downside – this is very bearish in the near term. Watching. It does qualify as a short and best when MACD at top turning down and Stoch RSI at top turning down with confirmation of price action and MA’s.

March 20 – MACD pinching, watching for it to turn up, Needs 200 day and to trade above 20 MA for long or it becomes a short.

$SLX

March 27 – As with $XLE above this also qualifies as a short (pending short term indicators lining up when you take the position). Price lost the 100 MA and the indicators are negative – very bearish. Watching.

March 20 – MACD is pinching on the turn back up – waiting for it to turn up and 45.50 to hold for one day to confirm break out. Or, on downdraft I would look at a 100 MA long entry also.

March 27 – The $X trade is almost identical to $SLX above. Waiting.

March 20 – This one is riskier than most on this list, however, I am watching the MACD for a turn up for a possible long.

$AKS

March 27 – AKS is coming in on the 200 MA test. Watching.

March 20 – MACD is turning up now, watching for price to trade above 20, 50, 100 that are clustered together. It is well over 200 MA.

Hello swing traders and welcome to the Compound Trading Swing Trading Keep It Simple K.I.S.S. Charting Review (Public Edition) for the week of March 26, 2017! This edition focuses on MACD, Stochastic RSI, Moving Averages, SQZMOM and a few others.

Members please refer to the member publications for more detail.

Introduction:

Click here also to review our most recent Swing Trading Quarterly Performance Report.

Thanking you in advance.

This Week’s Simple Charts include MACD, Moving Averages (MA), Stochastic RSI and a custom Squeeze Momentum Indicator (SQZMOM) for the US Dollar, USDJPY, Volatility, Gold, Miners, Silver, Crude Oil and the S&P 500. Below are daily charts and some charts include the hourly charting perspective.

The secret to Swing Trading successfully is understanding and executing Price Trigger Power Trade Risk Reward PTPTRR

A quick word about this discipline before you review the charts below. If you understand the disciplines involved in swing trading, more specifically PTPTRR then good for you! If you do not, I admonish you to learn the discipline before swing trading. You can of course search online the specifics of the discipline or ask us to assist. Either way, a few hours of focused / directed study will go a long way to ensuring that risk reward is always on your side.

Feb 12 – Crude oil traded at resistance on Friday, some may opt to short here but we are waiting to see if price breaks to upside. Will advise.

So that’s it for today, however, when the crude trade plays out in the short term I will be posting an updated list either way (for upside or downside scenario crude oil). Again, I apologize for the unexpected pivot but I have no choice but to see how this crude break-out plays and that won’t take more than two days. So expect all the new plays sometime between now and Thursday.

Weekly Swing Trading Stock Picks Mon Mar 20 $BABA, $VRX, $NFLX, $WYNN, $XME, $URRE, $TAN, $TWLO, $GSIT, $ABX …

March 20, 2017April 2, 2017 Swing TraderSwing Trading$ABX, $AKS, $BABA, $GSIT, $NFLX, $RIG, $TAN, $TWLO, $URRE, $VRX, $WYNN, $XME, Compound trading, Picks, Stock, Swing, Trading

Good morning swing traders and welcome to the Compound Trading Weekly Swing Trading stock picks memo (Part 1 of 3) for the week of March 19, 2017! $BABA, $VRX, $NFLX, $WYNN, $URRE, $TAN, $TWLO, $GSIT, $AXP, $ABX, $RIG, $XLE, $SLX, $X, $XME, $AKS and more.

Notices:

Good morning!

Below are the new stock picks but keep in mind that the market is at an important point. So we have in addition to this prepared two other lists, one if the market goes in to corrective mode and one if the market gets overheated again. Both of which are not included below but would be released immediately following a market decision up or down. So watch for that as things progress.

The charts below are focused on indicators that swing traders can rely on when markets are indecisive and sentiment isn’t easy to trend and swing (early 2017 sentiment swing trading was easy for example). So a little more attention to indicators such as MACD should be considered. Hopefully a clear sentiment re-emerges so our swings can be less hands on.

Specific to our picks below, we have updated the most important information and will flesh this out more as we go.

This weeks publication is in three parts:

You can consider this new document below Part 1 of this week’s picks and the previous picks Part 2, you can find the previous swing trading picks updates here.

Also, click here for a weekly public post on swing trading simple charts for $DXY, $VIX, $WTI, $GLD, $SLV, $GDX, and $SPY that we will call Part 3 of this weeks picks.

Indicators on charts are represented as; 20 MA light blue, 50 MA Purple, 100 MA dark blue, 200 MA pink. 8 EMA Yellow, 21 EMA Green. VWAP when available orange.

Any updates below specific to recent reports are highlighted in red to simplify the process for you.

New Stock Picks

$BABA

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.

$BABA Live Trading Chart – https://www.tradingview.com/chart/SPY/GsGBi5f2-BABA-Daily-100-MA-50-MA-Cross-MACD-Pinch-SQZMOM-up-Stoch-RSI/

$BABA Daily 100 MA 50 MA Cross, MACD Pinch, SQZMOM up, Stoch RSI up. Wait for MACD for long. #swingtrading

$NFLX

Live $NFLX Chart – https://www.tradingview.com/chart/NFLX/4RQP5P9P-NFLX-Daily-abover-20-MA-Stoch-RSI-Revved-MACD-turning-up-SQZMOM/

$NFLX Daily abover 20 MA Stoch RSI Revved MACD turning up SQZMOM watch close for green. Long on MACD and QZMOM confirmation.

$GSIT

GSI Technology, Inc. to Present at the Global Predictive Analytics Conference http://finance.yahoo.com/news/gsi-technology-inc-present-global-173705866.html

$GSIT in break-out. Daily Stoch RSI peaking, MACD near peak, SQZMOM near peak. Wait for 20 MA retest and MACD confirm for long.

$AXP

$AXP Setting up for next possible leg up. Wait for MACD SQZMOM Stoch RSI to turn up. Will likely test near 100 MA at min 50MA.

$ABX

March 20 – I will enter a long when price above 20 50 100 200 MA’s and will likely wait for the 200 MA to cross 100 MA (although no absolute). Like with all others I will exit when MACD turns down.

Freeport a better buy? https://www.fool.com/investing/2017/03/18/better-buy-freeport-mcmoran-inc-vs-barrick-gold.aspx

Inflation may send Gold higher. http://ir.baystreet.ca/article.aspx?id=528&1489764218

$ABX Daily MACD turning up, Stoch RSI way up, price on 20 MA, SQZMOM needs to confirm, 200 MA 100 MA cross would help with price above.

$TAN

Mar 20 – Nice reversal play if it turns out. In addition to below watch the 200 MA as resistance if you go long.

$TAN Reversal Play. Daily MACD needs to turn up, Stoch RSI is up, SQZMOM needs to turn up. 100 MA about to cross 50 MA – bullish.

$VRX

$VRX Bottom Play. Daily MACD needs to turn, Stoch RSI turning up, SQZMOM needs to turn then as MA cross-overs occur it will strengthen.

$TWLO

$TWLO Bottom Play on Watch. 100 MA needs to cross 20 MA with price over them. Stoch RSI pinch, MACD pinch, SQMOM turning up not green.

$WYNN

March 20 – This isn’t easy to swing but is so hot it would be foolish to ignore, so discipline like with so many other plays in the current market is required. Seeing it hold 110.00 for a full day with indicators in line would put me in a long position.

$WYNN 200 MA needs to cross 100 MA, trade over 110 full day. Stoch RSI peaking, MACD up, SQMOM up.

$XME

$XME Daily MACD pinching, SQZMOM starting to turn, Stoch RSI peaking, Price needs 20 MA

$URRE

March 20 – Like so many of the charts this week, there is indecision. However, if the indicators line up this has excellent upside potential. The MACD pinching at the bottom is key IMO.

$URRE Daily MACD pinching at bottom, Stoch RSI turn up, SQZMOM needs green, price needs 20 MA.

Others on watch but not ready to report charting:

$RIG – MACD pinching, watching for it to turn up, Above 200 day but needs to trade above 20 MA for long.

$XLE – MACD pinching, watching for it to turn up, Needs 200 day and to trade above 20 MA for long or it becomes a short.

$SLX – MACD is pinching on the turn back up – waiting for it to turn up and 45.50 to hold for one day to confirm break out. Or, on downdraft I would look at a 100 MA long entry also.

$X – This one is riskier than most on this list, however, I am watching the MACD for a turn up for a possible long.

$AKS – MACD is turning up now, watching for price to trade above 20, 50, 100 that are clustered together. It is well over 200 MA.

Good morning swing traders and welcome to the Compound Trading Swing Trading Keep It Simple K.I.S.S. Charting Review (Public Edition) for the week of March 19, 2017! This edition focuses on MACD, Stochastic RSI, Moving Averages and a few others.

Notices:

Members please refer to the member publications for more detail.

Introduction:

Click here also to review our most recent Swing Trading Quarterly Performance Report.

Thanking you in advance.

This Week’s Simple Charts include MACD, Moving Averages (MA), Stochastic RSI and a custom Squeeze Momentum Indicator for the US Dollar, Volatility, Gold, Miners, Silver, Crude Oil and the S&P 500. Daily charts with some 60 min perspectives.

Simple Charting $SPY MACD turned down (green buy, red sell), Stoch RSI Pinch, SQMOM turning down, under 20 MA. $SPXL $SPXS #SwingTrading

On the daily MACD says it’s on a sell but Stoch RSI on a buy. Wait for MACD to confirm.

Simple Charting $SPY 60 Min MACD turned down (green buy, red sell), Stoch RSI Pinch, SQMOM turned down, on 200 MA. $SPXL $SPXS #DayTrading

Hourly $SPY MACD is on sell, Stoch RSI looks confused and price is testing the 200 MA. #caution SQZMOM turned way down also.

$SPY, 60 Min, Chart — Simple Charting $SPY 60 Min MACD turned down (green buy, red sell), Stoch RSI Pinch, SQMOM turned down, on 200 MA. $SPXL $SPXS #DayTrading

Simple Charts $DXY MACD down (green buy, red sell), Stoch RSI down, SQMOM down, under 20 50 100 MA pinch. $UUP $USD #SwingTrading

Daily MACD on sell, Stoch RSI on sell, BUT the 50 MA is pinching 20 MA – wait for MACD to confirm long and price above MA’s.

$DXY, Daily, Chart — Simple Charts $DXY MACD down (green buy, red sell), Stoch RSI down, SQMOM down, under 20 50 100 MA pinch. $UUP $USD #SwingTrading

Simple Charts $VIX MACD flat (green buy, red sell), Stoch RSI down, SQMOM flat, under 20 50 100 200 MA. $UVXY $TVIX $XIV

Daily says volatility is dead. Wait. Even the stochastic RSI is turned down.

$VIX, Daily, Chart — Simple Charts $VIX MACD flat (green buy, red sell), Stoch RSI down, SQMOM flat, under 20 50 100 200 MA. $UVXY $TVIX $XIV

Simple Charts $USOIL $WTIC Daily MACD down (green buy, red sell), Stoch RSI up, SQMOM down, on 200 MA. $CL_F $USO $SCO $UWT $DWT

Crude oil is back at the 200 MA on the daily – careful because it goes south of the 200 and springs sometimes – it catches shorts shorties. Wait for MACD to confirm. #patience

Crude, Oil, Daily, Chart — Simple Charts $USOIL $WTIC Daily MACD down (green buy, red sell), Stoch RSI up, SQMOM down, on 200 MA. $CL_F $USO $SCO $UWT $DWT

Simple Charts $USOIL $WTIC 60 Min MACD flat (green buy, red sell), Stoch RSI down, SQMOM flat, on 100 MA. $CL_F $USO $SCO $UWT $DWT

Even the hourly says wait. Lots of indecision. OPEC and company wouldn’t have anything to do with this I am sure.

Crude, Oil, 60 Min, Chart — Simple Charts $USOIL $WTIC 60 Min MACD flat (green buy, red sell), Stoch RSI down, SQMOM flat, on 100 MA. $CL_F $USO $SCO $UWT $DWT #Daytrading

Simple Charts #GOLD Daily MACD pinch (green buy, red sell), Stoch RSI up, SQMOM down, 100 50 MA cross. #SwingTrading $GLD $XAUUSD $GC_F

Indecision on the Gold daily with MACD pinch – so watch that close, but the stoch RSI is up and don’t forget about that bullish 100 50 MA cross. Let the MACD confirm on a swing to go long.

Simple Charts #GOLD 60 Min MACD down (green buy, red sell), Stoch RSI down, SQMOM green, above MA’s. #DayTrading $GLD $XAUUSD $GC_F

Hourly shows a little different picture, bulls are in it (price action) BUT they are not all in – the MACD and the Stoch RSI need to confirm.

Gold 60 Min, Chart — Simple Charts #GOLD 60 Min MACD down (green buy, red sell), Stoch RSI down, SQMOM green, above MA’s. #DayTrading $GLD $XAUUSD $GC_F

Simple Charts #SILVER 60 Min MACD flat – up (green buy, red sell), Stoch RSI down, SQMOM green, 200 100 MA pinch. #DayTrading $SLV $USLV $DSLV

The Silver hourly is all about the 200 MA crossing the 100 MA – watch that close. Wait for MACD to confirm for good measure.

Silver, 60 Min, Chart — Simple Charts #SILVER 60 Min MACD flat – up (green buy, red sell), Stoch RSI down, SQMOM green, 200 100 MA pinch. #DayTrading $SLV $USLV $DSLV

Simple Charts #SILVER Daily MACD down – up (green buy, red sell), Stoch RSI up, SQMOM red, below 20 50 200 MA. #SwingTrading $SLV $USLV $DSLV

Silver daily chart says MACD isn’t confirming yet, however, MACD is curling and Stoch RSI is turned up off the bottom. 50 MA could be an temporary glass ceiling also.

Simple Charts $GDX Miners Daily MACD up – up (green buy, red sell), Stoch RSI way up, SQMOM red – up, on 100 MA 20 MA test. #SwingTrading $GDXJ $NUGT $DUST $JNUG $JDST

Miner’s are always fun to review. They always front run – sometimes for the better and sometimes splat! Nonetheless the MACD on daily is turned up BUT the Stochastic RSI is revved – you may want to wait for that to cool before entering a swing.

GDX, Chart, Miners, Daily, SwingTrading — Simple Charts $GDX Miners Daily MACD up – up (green buy, red sell), Stoch RSI way up, SQMOM red – up, on 100 MA 20 MA test. #SwingTrading $GDXJ $NUGT $DUST $JNUG $JDST

Simple Charts $GDX Miners 60 Min MACD down (green buy, red sell), Stoch RSI up, SQMOM red, under 20 200 MA. #DayTrading $GDXJ $NUGT $DUST $JNUG $JDST

Miner’s on the 60 min actually show a MACD turned down – late week panic with the bulls? Weekend beer money maybe. I would go wider time-frame and allow the daily on $GDX to guide your way – wait for the simple indicators to all line up.

Miners, $GDX, Chart, 60 Min — Simple Charts $GDX Miners 60 Min MACD down (green buy, red sell), Stoch RSI up, SQMOM red, under 20 200 MA. #DayTrading $GDXJ $NUGT $DUST $JNUG $JDST

That’s my simple perspective for the week. Best to y’all this week.

Good morning swing traders and welcome to the Compound Trading Weekly Swing Trading stock picks memo for the week of March 12, 2017! $VRX, $NFLX, $WYNN, $URRE, $TAN, $TWLO, $GSIT, $AXP, $ABX, $RIG, $XLE, $SLX, $X, $XME, $AKS and more.

Notices:

Good morning! This weekend we will flesh out the new pics below with charts and our entry / exit triggers, for now the list of new stock picks are listed with some notes. We will also spring clean the previous posts below this weekend so the file doesn’t get too large.

Any updates below specific to recent reports are highlighted in red to simplify the process for you.

$XME, Swing, trading, chart — $XME – MACD is pinching and about to turn up, also waiting for price above 20 MA and for 20 MA to cross 100 MA to downside for long.

New Stock Picks Coming this Weekend

The list below is new, only the MACD and MA’s are noted here (on the daily) but other indicators and charting will be detailed on weekend report.

$GSIT – Overheated but watching for continuation for long.

$AXP – Watching for MACD to turn up for long.

$ABX – MACD turning up watching for 20 MA to cross 50 MA with price above for long (or sooner depending on Gold).

$RIG – MACD pinching, watching for it to turn up, Above 200 day but needs to trade above 20 MA for long.

$XLE – MACD pinching, watching for it to turn up, Needs 200 day and to trade above 20 MA for long or it becomes a short.

$NFLX – Bullish. MACD has turned up. If price holds Thurs high on Fri I may enter long trade Friday.

$URRE – MACD pinching, watching for it to turn up, Above 200 day but needs to trade above 20 MA for long.

$TAN – This is trending so a solid argument for a long is in play now. However, I will wait for MACD to turn up and price to trade above 20 MA.

$WYNN – It is overheated, however, if it can hold 110.00 on a daily with not trading below 100.00 on that day I will look at long.

$SLX – MACD is pinching on the turn back up – waiting for it to turn up and 45.50 to hold for one day to confirm break out. Or, on downdraft I would look at a 100 MA long entry also.

$TWLO – Looks like bottom may be in. It is trending up. Looking for 100 MA to cross down under 20 MA (pinching now) and price to trade above 20 MA for long.

$X – This one is riskier than most on this list, however, I am watching the MACD for a turn up for a possible long.

$XME – MACD is pinching and about to turn up, also waiting for price above 20 MA and for 20 MA to cross 100 MA to downside for long. This is a great looking chart and an argument could be made that a long position before everything lines up as I noted is sound.

$AKS – MACD is turning up now, watching for price to trade above 20, 50, 100 that are clustered together. It is well over 200 MA.

$VRX – This has been a great bottom play in recent days. However, I am going to wait for the MACD to turn up and then I will look at a long.

Notices:

The markets are in a difficult position right now for new swing trading entries, so I have spent time cleaning up the charting and expanded on various indicators I am looking for. We are closing as many swing positions as we can (or recently have) and are looking to our six standards ($SPY, $WTI, $VIX, Gold, Silver, $DXY) and related products to primarily swing trade until the market consolidates and / or pulls back temporarily. You will notice increased charting and/or links below for those plays.

So most of this charting is in a wait and see mode but the indicators we are looking for are outlined, you may recall in recent reports we were waiting for the oil resistance to play out and it has – it failed. So now its a temporary wait scenario. Stay close to our email updates we will be sending our swing trading members in the coming days. With as many of these plays waiting for decisions we expect another round of numerous swings again very soon. In the meantime, get to know the pending charts below well and the indicators so you are ready when the indicators line up.

Any updates below specific to recent reports are highlighted in red to simplify the process for you.
