TILRAY (TLRY)
TILRAY (TLRY) Nice swing trade from 46.10 for 49.03 PT 1 and thru other resistance, trading 50.45 $TLRY #swingtrade #alert
Add in to each resistance and add above on trajectory or add on pull-backs.
It doesn’t get much easier than this – trade by numbers (lines).
From Swing Trade Alert to Trim in to Resistance 10:12 AM – 20 Jun 2019;
TILRAY (TLRY) in to key resistance, trim in to it add above to next #swingtrading #alerts $TLRY https://www.tradingview.com/chart/TLRY/cPAkfJnL-TILRAY-TLRY-in-to-key-resistance-trim-in-to-it-add-above-to-n/ …
From Swing Trade Alert Original Entry 8:04 AM – 20 Jun 2019;
Long $TLRY 46.10 for 49.03 PT # 1 details on report to follow, see previous charting.
TESLA (TSLA)
TESLA (TSLA) short, trade found support and bounced, stop at entry, resistance test above, could go either way. $TSLA
This trade started off well and as a daytrade it was excellent. On the swing it is still in play but trade did bounce at support below so be sure to exit before any loss as it is on the right side still. The trade is so close to the lower end of its trading range there’s no wisdom in holding if it turns against the original entry 225.05.
From Swing Trade Alert Feed 8:00 AM – 20 Jun 2019
Short $TSLA 225.05 for 203.42 1st PT, details in report upcoming. #swingtrading

From June 17, 2019 Report:
ALLERGAN (AGN) After significant sell-off this looks ready for a bounce near key over sold support now $AGN #swingtrade
The area of support just below trade (see white arrow) looks to be a key area that is likely to find support and bounce. If it does bounce then I see three areas of key snap back for bullish trade. A general trajectory of trade possible in a bullish scenario is included below with 3 white arrows. We will see how trade near term is, but I like it for a bounce to at least the first price target (first white uptrending arrow).

Swing Trade Set-Ups to Watch.
A Group of Swing Trade Set-ups for your Trading Strategy this Week.
I have no idea if this next time cycle is going to be bullish or bearish, so lets consider either and trade them up or down until we know.
Trade # 1
ALPHABET (GOOGL) trading 1068.37, over 1167.00 sees 1250.00, under 1040 sees 945.00 $GOOGL #swingtrading
I have been saying for some time that Google, Facebook and Twitter would come under pressure, and here it is. I always traded support long on Google and Facebook until about six months ago, now you want to focus on resistance to short side imo.
Either way you trade it I’ve marked your most important decisions.If it trades any higher than 1160.00 I think you need a really good reason to stay long, or at least have solid tight stops in place.
Watching for a resistance trade to short.
Trade # 2
FACEBOOK (FB) Trading 173.35, over 174 sees 189.00, under 161.00 sees 146.00 $FB #swingtrade
Facebook seems to be spinning a better catalyst story than Google for now, so it has more short term reason to rise in price. I still don’t like it longer term so I am looking for a resistance area to short. The chart below is a guide.
Trade # 3
TWITTER (TWTR) trading 37.93, over 45.50 sees 52.00, under 33.00 sees 25.00 #swingtrading $TWTR
Same with Twitter, I don’t think it is going to do well over the next 5 or 6 years, or better said, I think the down side risks are significant, so I’m looking for resistance to short.
Trade # 4
Square (SQ)
SQUARE is on the move again, one of the top watches on Monday. I am extremely bullish on square to possible 90’s, trade the green arrows up. $SQ #swingtrade #tradealerts https://www.tradingview.com/chart/SQ/dMaElx3w-SQUARE-SQ-I-am-extremely-bullish-on-square-to-possible-90-s-t/
Why Square Stock Is Worth at Least $80 After Raising Guidance https://finance.yahoo.com/news/why-square-stock-worth-least-120815807.html?soc_src=social-sh&soc_trk=tw #swingtrading $SQ
Trade # 5
PLUG POWER (PLUG) Price target 3.48 early October 2019 if price gets bullish between now and then. On watch. #swingtrade
This is a symmetry trade, if I can lock in a turn up in momentum (it likely pulls back first) then I will trade it to the extension to upside as noted on chart.
Trade # 6
PARTEUM CORP (TEUM) Risk reward in this channel extremely high for at least a double, tight stops n go $TEUM #swingtrade
The risk reward in this trade set up is hard to ignore, TEUM is a top watch Monday morning. Use caution, stops and simple discipline in sizing and the risk reward set up here is unusually high for a trade higher.
Thanks
Curt

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.
We notified members in most recent trading range over last week that our algorithm identified a divergence and to expect an interimn top.
— Freedom $SPY Algo (@FREEDOMtheAlgo) March 21, 2017
To be clear, our algorithm @FREEDOMtheAlgo alerted a $SPY anomaly recently. Which has us cautious until recent high taken out and confirmed.
— Curtis Melonopoly (@curtmelonopoly) April 3, 2017
I wouldn't get too excited long $SPY $ES_F $USOIL $WTI etc. until most recent highs are taken out and confirmed.
— Curtis Melonopoly (@curtmelonopoly) March 30, 2017

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.

In play today in chat room and on markets:
Last week I was range bound to 1500.00 a day (really choppy) until Thursday got better around +2500.00 then Friday was flat and even took a small cut and Monday took a small razor cut at open and took a long position in $PLUG at EOD, Was looking at a long in $UUP (surrounding Yellen report) but didn’t, and I’m looking closely at an Oil and Gold / Miner’s short possibility. Swing trades are doing well of course because they are more consistently controlled (wider time frames with simple charting entries and exits do that).

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.
We notified members in most recent trading range over last week that our algorithm identified a divergence and to expect an interimn top.
— Freedom $SPY Algo (@FREEDOMtheAlgo) March 21, 2017
To be clear, our algorithm @FREEDOMtheAlgo alerted a $SPY anomaly recently. Which has us cautious until recent high taken out and confirmed.

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.

$PLUG, $CALI, $INNL were the momentum plays on the day.
$PLUG I traded later in the day for a 1 cent loss on 10000 shares and $INNL I had on the swing trading side of our platform and on the daytrading side. The swing side we sold during premarket and I held 2000 shares on daytrading side hoping for a premarket pop and didn’t get it. Both I sold for a profit because I took the trade the afternoon before long for the swing and the news came out that night. Reminded me of the $VHC play last year (same thing happened) but in that instance I went in with 60% of my portfolio. Huge win then. $CALI I didn’t trade.

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.

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.
We notified members in most recent trading range over last week that our algorithm identified a divergence and to expect an interimn top.
— Freedom $SPY Algo (@FREEDOMtheAlgo) March 21, 2017
To be clear, our algorithm @FREEDOMtheAlgo alerted a $SPY anomaly recently. Which has us cautious until recent high taken out and confirmed.
— Curtis Melonopoly (@curtmelonopoly) April 3, 2017
I wouldn't get too excited long $SPY $ES_F $USOIL $WTI etc. until most recent highs are taken out and confirmed.
— Curtis Melonopoly (@curtmelonopoly) March 30, 2017
7 of… A break to upside of $SPY $WTI algo resistance would signal what can only be described as "unnatural" I suppose…

Algorithmic Chart Model Trading / News:
Epic the Oil Algo was at it again with a crazy price target hit to the penny and exact time at Wednesday #EIA report time at 10:30 AM. That call was made Sunday for that exact time and price Wednesday and what made it more interesting was how oil literally fell from the sky and landed right in the middle of the target. We caught it on video.
#EIA Price hit target exact time & price called Tues 10:30. Crude algo. $USOIL $WTIC $CL_F $USO $UWT $DWT #OOTT
There it is live on video wow crazy. Dead center! Oil drops in to target exact time and price 🔥🔥🔥 EPIC the OIL Algo. $USOIL $WTI #OIL #EIA https://t.co/1rJHKTV7P5

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

Live Trading Chat Room Transcript: (on YouTube Live):
2 Part video (Part 1 embed below go to our Youtube channel for Part 2)
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.

optionsavvy: I may have to take the exit on rest of SPY this was a bit of a lucky trade
Sartaj: Seems like a theme today
MarketMaven: Your daytrading is better than that though Curt
Curtis M: That was a disciplined trade imo
Curtis M: $SPY at res and oil at res kinda obvious looking back but at the time…. things always clear in reverse
optionsavvy: agree but DOW divergence from NASD is what tipped me off to trade. IWM was strong when I took the SPY otherwise that would have been my pick
optionsavvy: old futures guy beat into me that when the NASD diverges strong and DOW isnt playing along be very careful
Curtis M: makes sense
Curtis M: okay i have to bail on $PLUG this stoch rsi turn up its 3:29
Curtis M: time not on my side

Curtis M: until then I’ll hold $DUST
Curtis M: how do you like them ballz? hedge? u there? lol
Flash G: He fell asleep

Curtis M: oh well missed the bad news muhahahaha
MarketMaven: 🙂

New blog post: When You Learn It – You Are Free (Part 1 of Freedom Traders). My Stock Trading Story.
Tuesday April 4, 2017 Stock Trading Results
The Quarterly Daytrading Performance Review P/L with Charting is Published.
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.
Most recent Keep it Simple Swing trade Charting Post on Sunday April 2, 2017 (MACD, MA, Stoch RSI, SQZMOM focus):
Current Holds / Trading Plan:
Main watchlist in my trading plan today: $INNL of course is on watch with my overnight hold, I was going to sell in premarket when it up 83% bought I though lets run it at open and see, OTC on watch $USRM, $LIGA, $MMEX. $PLUG, $INNL, $NEOT are the momentums on watch and $USOIL, $WTIC, $RIG are the oil related.
All my holds are small to mid size holds in this order according to sizing – $INNL, $ONTX, $DUST, $XOM, $NE, $ASM, $SSH, $LGCY, $TRCH, $ESEA, $MGTI.
Per recent;
$DUST I will close for a loss if Gold holds 1260 – sucks, but it was a relatively small position (to portfolio size) but I didn’t follow the golden rule… when a trade goes against your plan cut fast and I didn’t so I will likely pay the price. And I guess what has become the second golden rule… listen to the algos… they haven’t been wrong yet – so yes, I didn’t listen to my own invention ROSIE the Gold Algo (give Rosie a little plug there she deserves it lol). Embarrassing, especially because ROSIE nailed the bottom many weeks in advance of the bottom – all I had to do was listen and boom new house. Sad.
Market Outlook / Trading Plan:
$PLUG, $INNL, $NEOT, $USOIL, $WTIC, $RIG Oil Plays on Watch (see my Twitter feed).
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. The daytrading side I am 95% cash now that I am out of $UWT so I am fine. I see significant upside challenges in Oil and SPY with most recent highs being taken out.

Previous Day Momentum Stocks to watch: $INNL
If you are new to our trading service you should review recent blog posts, our YouTube Channel and at minimum our algorithm Twitter feeds because they do tell a story in terms of the market and how the inflections of the market determine our day to day trading. You will notice the algorithmic modelling has been undeniably accurate with many time-frames (intra-day, weeks and months out) so I myself have learned to respect their math (they have taken me from a 60% hit rate to 80% in my trading – all publicly posted live trades).
The algorithm Twitter feeds can be found here:$WTI (@EPICtheAlgo), $VIX (@VexatiousVIX), $SPY (@FREEDOMtheAlgo), $GLD (@ROSIEtheAlgo), $SLV (@SuperNovaAlgo), $DXY (@DXYUSD_Index). Our Swing Trading Twitter feed is found here: https://twitter.com/swingtrading_ct. Our lead trader Twitter feed is here @curtmelonopoly, lead tech developer @hundalSHS, and associate trader @quadzilla_jr.
Momentum Stocks (Market Open and Intra-Day):
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.
