Two-Week Stock Trading Challenge: Day 4 Chart Review, $URRE $APOP $TBIO $BVXV

Trading Challenge , , , , , , , , , Curt Melonopoly

Welcome to the fourth day’s review of our two-week trading challenge, where our lead trader’s aim is to double his large account. Our lead trader’s record for January 12 was 4 wins, 2 losses, and 2 holds.

Today’s focus shifted back to biopharma stocks, although markets have continued to be relatively flat as the week has progressed.The potential for intraday scalps was not as promising as Monday. No recap video was recorded for this day.

The first play of the morning was exiting long positions from the previous day in $URRE. This began at 9:34 AM, with half of the 9000 shares being scaled out for 3.82. Finally, all remaining shares were scaled out at 9:45 AM for 3.90.

There was one morning momentum play at 9:40 AM in $APOP, which leveraged a pop in a one minute time-frame. Our lead trader was long at 9:40 AM for 1000 shares at 5.54, and exited at 9:41 AM for 5.86. This was the second win of the day.

There was a small loss at 10:15 AM, going long in $TBIO for 5000 shares at 0.78. Exit was at 10:18 AM, for 0.73.

The next two wins were intraday scalps in $BVXV after 11:00 AM. The first trade was a long position entered at 11:15 AM, for 2000 shares at 5.02. These shares were sold off at 11:21 AM for 5.80. The second scalp was entered at 11:33 AM, going long for 6000 shares at 6.48. This position was exited at 11:38 AM, with all shares sold for 7.17.

The final loss of the day was in $TBIO near end-of-day. The lead trader entered a long position at 3:06 PM, 5000 shares at 1.217, and exited at 3:30 PM at 1.182 (all shares).

Overview Perspective & Review of Chat Room, Algo Calls, Trades and Alerts:

So much happening this week I can’t possibly review every trade. Watch videos as Sartaj releases them for detailed account. I was in $TBIO, $BVXV, $ZSAN, $TCCO, $URRE and more. Wasn’t as good as other days this week but still profitable and worth it. Choppy. Overtraded. Was hoping to increase my sizing as week went on but I’ve had to decrease sizing as week progresses. Hoping Friday is the big day of the week. I’m ready to be aggressive if window opens.

We’re winning.

Momentum Stocks Today:

Some of the note-ables we were on top of today were; $IAG, $AUY, $JNUG, $NUGT, $KOOL, $MDSY, $FBIO, $TBIO, $CETX, $TRX

$KOOL, Stock, Trade, Momentum

$KOOL momentum trade went well but left too much on the table.

Holding:

$DUST, $CBMX, $JUNO

Looking Forward:

Per yesterday (and days prior):

I need to exit $DUST and entered it and held because I was convinced USD/JPY would at minimum do a major spike up to end the rally – but not so lucky. $CBMX and $JUNO are holds in to spring if necessary – that was the plan anyway.

We are looking to volatility, bonds, metals and possibly bio at this point short / mid term – but the market will let us know.

The market has a tonne of inflection points now, Silver Gold and Miner’s woke up some today so things should get interesting soon with our algos that you can find here:

The algorithm Twitter feeds can be found here: $WTI (@EPICtheAlgo), $VIX (@VexatiousVIX), $SPY (@FREEDOMtheAlgo), $GLD (@ROSIEtheAlgo), $SLV (@SuperNovaAlgo), $DXY (@DXYUSD_Index).

09:50 am Mathew Waterfall : Won’t hesitate to get out of $NUGT for a quick win with the way it has been headfaking lately
09:51 am Curtis M : $CNAT $NXTD acion but no play
09:52 am Curtis M : $KOOL I had a hard time moving in with any size and chipping out so caution with volume today
09:53 am Curtis M : Great move in $NUGT but Im not convinced USDJPY done so Im missing out ugh
09:53 am Mathew Waterfall : Yepp I’ve seen the same thing with orders not getting filled
09:53 am Curtis M : Congrats Mat!
09:53 am Mathew Waterfall : I have a 10 cent trailer on $NUGT so it if gets whacked I’m still up large on it
09:54 am Mathew Waterfall : I won’t hold it overnight if somehow it doesn’t get hit today
09:55 am Mathew Waterfall : Also likely legging in to some $USLV. Small chunks as we try to find a bottom
09:56 am Mathew Waterfall : There’s stop on $NUGT. 7.35-7.77. I’ll take it for a win before 10
09:56 am Sammy T : Buying $CNAT on dips as possible
09:57 am Cara R : $ROX vol
10:01 am Mathew Waterfall : $AUy and $IAG on watch here. May start legging in to those as well
10:02 am Mathew Waterfall : USD/JPY rejected on backside of fib at 116.82. Good for gold
10:04 am coji j : $NVDA rocket
10:05 am Frank T : Banked on $KOOL cooool thanks!
10:06 am Frank T : $NUGT long
10:07 am Kipp W : scalpng nvda
10:07 am Mathew Waterfall : Got out of $NUGT a bit early lol. Might reenter on a pullback if we get one
10:07 am Mathew Waterfall : In both $IAG and $AUY small to start
10:12 am Curtis M : EIA on deck
10:13 am Curtis M : 11 am
10:16 am Curtis M : See some guys starting to short $KOOL here ummmm mot sure
10:18 am Mathew Waterfall : $KOOL ran on basically a rumor and a large buy. Would be cautious here
10:20 am Curtis M : $TX $IAG $AUY all interesting not as sure about $TRX – good calls Mat
10:23 am Mathew Waterfall : $GV also resuming the uptrend here. Like that name as wel
10:23 am Mathew Waterfall : I’m not getting overly excited about gold and miners here yet but starting to add a few and get interested for the first time in a while
10:27 am Mathew Waterfall : No volume out here for th most part. Other than the two play sposted and small miner swings it doesn’t look like I’m going to get much action
10:29 am Mathew Waterfall : Looking at a couple swing short tries here. Gone next week though so not looking to load the boat here
10:40 am Mathew Waterfall : $CTXS short try here. This name wants lover
10:41 am Mathew Waterfall : Swing entry so I’m not expecting O/N success. Playing against yearly high and legging in. Will add if it goes either direction most likely
10:46 am Carol B : In $ELGX some
10:46 am Mathew Waterfall : I would like to see $GDX get over the 50% fib at 22.1 beofre I get super confident here. Also has the 5- day at 21.91 and falling to hurdle which should happen about the same time the 9/15 make a bullish cross
10:52 am coji j : $SYRX small long side
10:53 am Mathew Waterfall : Finally getting out rounded top in USD/JPY? What do you think Curt? I say yes but I’ve had these thoughts beofre
10:53 am Curtis M : USDJPY I keep waiting for the finale lol
10:54 am Curtis M : Cost me a lot of money that little stupd bias
10:54 am Curtis M : missed trades
10:55 am Mathew Waterfall : If we can get back over 118.66 Then maybe more upside but this thing has run a lot so my bias is to the downside
10:55 am Curtis M : Ill start trading between fibs
10:55 am Mathew Waterfall : But looking at dec 2015 and jan 2016 you’re one more surprise theory does hold some weight
10:55 am Mathew Waterfall : It faded that jammed it up again in our faces at the end of jan before falling off quickly
10:56 am Curtis M : Kuroda mad man
10:58 am Jack D : All makes more sense now guys!
10:59 am Cindy L : I followed u on those Mat thanks!
11:00 am Carol B : awesome thanks guys!
11:02 am Mathew Waterfall : Totally forgot about numbers in crude this morning. Doesn’t look like we missed much over there as /CL is trying to stay even on the day
11:03 am Curtis M : Crude calm
11:03 am Curtis M : It will be untl machines back from beach
11:06 am Kipp W : $AGI $SYRX nice
11:13 am Curtis M : So when gold at that green arrow and back tested Im long a bunch of gold and miner related
11:18 am Mathew Waterfall : USD/JPY just rejected hard off of the 9 day on the 5′. Been under that all day
11:33 am Mathew Waterfall : USD/JPY got a little bounce. Looking for break of 116.225 there which chould give Gold the boost over 1170-1180 range
11:40 am Cara R : I was in at quad break 🙂
11:41 am lenore l : I was in 3 mins before but I see why ur waiting Curt
11:41 am lenore l : Mathew hit it perfect
11:42 am Curtis M : Yeah Mathew what a fricken great trade whoot whoot
11:42 am Mathew Waterfall : That premarket buying was the tip off for me.
11:43 am Mathew Waterfall : Will keep my $IAG and $AUY positions on a short leash and likely have the main gold screens up all day to keep an eye on things. I like Silver here as well $USLV working as well
11:44 am Mathew Waterfall : Buy was 11.68 when I noted it earlier this morning. Will add over HOD likely
11:44 am Mathew Waterfall : /SI needs to stay >16 or I’m out of that one
11:47 am Curtis M : 20 min break
11:52 am Mathew Waterfall : Indexes going red here. Should help the metals get boost. I expect some tax selling coming up with a mix of bond buying and gold/silver buying if this trend continues. We see 1180-1200 on gold and 22.1 on $GDX and I will get fully behind it
11:56 am Tyler H : Holy sh@t batman indicator dashboard there!!! bahaha whoa
11:56 am Curtis M : lol
11:57 am Curtis M : u can code it all too
11:58 am Curtis M : back in 10
11:59 am Mathew Waterfall : $USLV HOD and $TLT also working. I’m really expecting some heavy bond buying next week as big money does a little rebalancing.
12:01 pm Mathew Waterfall : 122.4 first level I’m looking for in $TLT. 50% fib and 5o day confluence if we get there next weekish
12:09 pm Mathew Waterfall : $OPXA on the rise. I’ve been waiting for this thing to break out. Sooner or later I will get my pop
12:15 pm Cara R : Here comes $OPXA
12:16 pm Paul M : $KATE crazy
12:18 pm John M : $TLT in good shape imo
12:18 pm Mathew Waterfall : Took a rung out of $OPXA at 1.07X. Hit it from mid 90;s and it’s bounced like this only to fall back this week. Will reload again in mi 90’s if it falls back
12:19 pm Mathew Waterfall : $IPCI also seeing some OK action today for another non metals name. Flood looks to be at 2.8 with a big buy there all morning
12:20 pm John M : $IPCI I have small position. I think it will explode eventually.
12:21 pm Mathew Waterfall : Same here. It doesn’t seem to be in a hurry but I like it long term
12:23 pm Cara R : $CBAK guys
12:24 pm Cara R : $GRBN $TBIO too
12:25 pm coji j : I would confirm $IPCI too – its going to go north soon
12:26 pm Curtis M : Hey guys – looks lke a good afternoon setting up – back from lunch but…

12:28 pm Curtis M : Socially deficit
12:32 pm Cara R : $NVDA more moves wow
12:33 pm Greg L : $XGTI vol
12:33 pm Mathew Waterfall : I’m also watching $MU and $AMD but can’t get too excited about going long here. I think they bounce but I’m not playing
12:33 pm lenore l : Big block on $SPY
12:34 pm Kipp W : $XGTI thats the PR deal done
12:35 pm Jack D : $DRAM r/g boys
12:36 pm Sammy T : $FNCX in some long for swing
12:44 pm Mathew Waterfall : $AUY add on this little pullback. Swing position holding for a month + unless we make new lows
12:45 pm Paul M : $NDEV loooking good
12:49 pm Jack D : In small $TLOG $NVDA $XGTI
12:51 pm coji j : $XGTI 19%
12:51 pm coji j : pop
12:52 pm coji j : $NVDA HOD
12:55 pm Mathew Waterfall : $KSS short looks nice here. Bear flag alerted to me. Also hate retail right now with everyone else failing
12:57 pm Mathew Waterfall : Rounded bottom into a bull flag look right there/cup and handle. $JNUG has the look
01:05 pm Mathew Waterfall : Bonds getting jiggy let’s do this!
01:05 pm Frank T : Your charting is creepy in a cool way curt
01:06 pm Curtis M : Ha hope creepy works
01:06 pm Curtis M : Interesting descrip Frank
01:07 pm Mathew Waterfall : MY GF started out calling me creepy now she’s stuck with me some sometimes it works out
01:07 pm Mathew Waterfall : Of course the one before her started the same way and ended with a restraining order so YMMV. /not serious
01:08 pm Paul M : good one! I think frank means curt has a way of knowing:)
01:08 pm Curtis M : its all in the moons hahaha
01:11 pm Mathew Waterfall : I kid you not, I saw some BS about trading with moon phases. Like this BS doesn’t stop. Moon phases tell you how to position yourself? Really?
01:11 pm Curtis M : ha
01:18 pm Cindy L : My $CETX gonna hit any moment
01:21 pm lenore l : $CETX looks really good
01:30 pm Frank T : Wow $XGTI
01:30 pm Mathew Waterfall : $XGTI with gaps on both sides I was just looking at that
01:30 pm Mathew Waterfall : Could fill up to 1.73, or keep going down lol
01:31 pm Frank T : Bonds James Bonds up
01:32 pm Curtis M : Royal family news chatter
01:34 pm Paul M : moar $XGTI here in again
01:36 pm lenore l : $IBTX Paul thats where you want moar
01:37 pm coji j : $OVAS waking
01:38 pm Curtis M : Too much winning
01:39 pm Curtis M : $AUY $IAG surprised no pull back of any consequence
01:39 pm Mathew Waterfall : Same here. I wanted to add more and was waiting for mid 80’s on both
01:40 pm Mathew Waterfall : that’s why I added at .945 on $AUY
01:40 pm Mathew Waterfall : Will still add more on a pullback though. Some with $USLV
01:43 pm Mathew Waterfall : In a couple thousand og $XGTI at 1.579 for a gap fill. tight trailer, not getting bruned on this
01:43 pm Mathew Waterfall : haha good timing!
01:44 pm Curtis M : https://twitter.com/topdowncharts/status/814536212404785156 bonds
01:45 pm Mathew Waterfall : Yepp I like it. We’re all seeing similar spreads it looks like. I love bonds here
01:46 pm Curtis M : I hate to be the guy…. but we’ve been spot on in here – the whole room has been actually for a few weeks
01:46 pm Frank T : Stupid on hehe
01:47 pm Mathew Waterfall : Of course things turn quickly but yea we are doing alright as of late lol
01:47 pm Mathew Waterfall : Stop at flat on $XGTI FYI
01:48 pm Curtis M : Sartaj publishing my PL tonight – hopefully Dec was ok – choppy
01:48 pm Curtis M : Jan gong to be massive tho
01:48 pm Mathew Waterfall : This whole month felt directionless and like I was chasing my tail for the trade of the day. I hate trading that way. new year should give some direction and trends
01:54 pm Curtis M : yup
01:57 pm Mathew Waterfall : I’m short $KSS here against last swing high. Target is down gap fill x2. Chart is something only a mother could love
01:57 pm Mathew Waterfall : Expect it to take a few weeks to get my target
01:58 pm Mathew Waterfall : Short at 49.8009 to be exact
02:03 pm Mathew Waterfall : End of year ramp starting a bit early. I’m basically striking tomorrow’s action form my memory and likely won’t be trading it
02:15 pm Jack D : BLOCK TRADE: $SPY 502,596 shares @ $224.38 [14:14:25]
02:17 pm Paul M : Long $OPK
02:18 pm Frank T : We banking on $CETX
02:19 pm Curtis M : $CETX great call guys
02:20 pm Mathew Waterfall : Nicely done on $CETX. My focus was elsewhere like playing $XGTI for a scratch lol
02:20 pm Curtis M : Lots of $SPY blocks
02:21 pm Mathew Waterfall : End of year positioning probably
02:21 pm Mathew Waterfall : Or Yellen trying like hell for once last ramp. Very possible
02:23 pm Curtis M : Plunge team for sure
02:23 pm Curtis M : When this USDKPY run is over that should be it imo
02:23 pm Curtis M : USDJPY
02:24 pm Mathew Waterfall : When you see thos huge buys and the huge green bars, you know what’s going on back there
02:24 pm Mathew Waterfall : Gold actually holding up werll in the face of it
02:25 pm Curtis M : 8 pm tonight 7am tomorrow 2:30 PM tomorrow 9 PM on the 1st take your pick
02:25 pm Mathew Waterfall : So start the new years partying today is what I hear you saying
02:25 pm Curtis M : lol hope Im right
02:28 pm Curtis M : Gold is saying tomorrow early afternoon IMO
02:29 pm Mathew Waterfall : Couldn’t crack it with that ramp and the miners still seeing bid support. All good IMO
02:30 pm Curtis M : Or Gold and miners could just go early too lol
02:31 pm Curtis M : Gold bulls could very easily front run
02:32 pm Mathew Waterfall : There’s a lot of pent up agrresion there and likely some late to the party shorts as usual. Plenty of stops to hit just above around 1200 I would think
02:32 pm Curtis M : $CDNX chart is lovely
02:37 pm Curtis M : If I wasn’t gong to hammer down wth everything I have and more on this turn in markets I’d buy and hold $CDNX – thats just me tho not an official call trade your plan lol
02:45 pm Jack D : Long some $VCEL
02:53 pm Curtis M : Guess if USDJPY gets one last pop I’ll pop outta $DUST ugh
02:59 pm lenore l : Long moar $NVDA
03:02 pm Mathew Waterfall : $NVDA play working nicely for those hwo took it. I pulled up the chart this morning and passed on my way to metals. Can’t win them all I guess
