Market Day, Chat Room Trades and Personal Trades:

Today I broke so many of my rules. The first two trades I took in $HOTR and $AXSM I went long assuming the momo would go my way not following the indicators AT ALL. And I paid. The stops list were hit – so I paid for my stupidity. It felt like I did when I first learned. Terrible feeling not being in control of your trade.On $HOTR lost 280.00 and $AXSM lost 350.00.

Then later I took a intra-day break out trade in $INPX and completely broke the get out quick rule when the break-out trade goes against you and I held and got VERY LUCKY. Made 1050.00 on it.

If the was a shining star it was in my swing trades from the other side of our platform. But the swing trades and our algorithm model trades don’t count in the trading challenge:)

$HOTR, $AXSM, $INXP

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.

Various Chart Set-ups on Watch: $AGN, $CTSH, $IBB, $FEYE, $SNAP, $LACDF (will cover in mid day review)

Market Outlook :

Looks like clear skies on deck .Watch those large and mega caps – when they stall things could change.

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, the Compound Trading 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).

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 Intra-day Trading 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 :  $HSGX, $FNCX, $JD, $KATE $NWL $TSEM $CCP $SGYP $CATM $AUY $GOGL $VTTI $DGAZ $JNUG $DGAZ $NUGT $SVXY $XIV I will update before market open or refer to chat room notices.

(2) Pre-market Decliners Watch-List : $HZNP – 30% PM I will update before market open or refer to chat room notices.

(3) Other Watch-List:

(4) Regular Algo Charting Watch-List: Gold $GC_F $GLD, Miners $GDX ($NUGT, $DUST, $JDST, $JNUG), Silver $SLV $SI_F ($USLV, $DSLV), Crude Oil FX: $USOIL $WTI ($UWTI, $DWTI, $USO, $UCO, $CL_F, $UWT, $DWT), Natural Gas $NG_F ($UGAZ, $DGAZ), S & P 500 $SPY $ES_F ($SPXL, $SPXS), US Dollar Index $DXY ($UUP), Volatility $VIX ($TVIX, $UVXY, $XIV)

(5) Upgrades:    as time allows I will update before market open or refer to chat room notices.

(6) Downgrades:  as time allows I will update before market open or refer to chat room notices.

Stay tuned in Stock Chat Room for more pre-market stocks on watch.

Study:

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).

Nice to get positive feedback:) Keeps one motivated.

Premarket watch-list for me was all about: 

PreMarket Trading Plan Mon Apr 10 $CYTX, $GERN, $SPXS – $SPY, $DUST – $GLD, $GDX, $DWT – $USOIL, $WTIC #daytrading #chatroom

$CYTX Premarket up 32% on news.

$STRP premarket up 150% on AT&T buy-out for 95.63 share

$STRP Premarket news

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).

Momentum plays on the day –

$STRP, $SITO, $LEDS, $CYTX, $SWFT, $AXON

In Play: $STRP, $GSAT, $TXMD, $GERN, $SWFT, $CYTX, $RCII, $AKRX High Uncertainty: $XCRA, $T, $DISH

Carter Worth is lit tonight and makes a compelling case for $TSLA

Trading Lessons, How-to and Educational:

If you can’t back a trade w/ tech set-up or at min fundamentals… then you deserve to take a loss. Like me w my one paper cut at open ha.

1/ $STUDY trading plan ex. that was sent in $CRME. Here’s what I think (and remember there’s all kinds of methods – mine are one of many).

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.

Algorithmic Chart Model Trading / News:

Swing Trading Notes / News:

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

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.
