Good Morning Swing Traders and Welcome to the Compound Trading Weekly Swing Trading updates (1 of 4) for Aug 14, 2017. $TSLA, $NVO, $AAPL, $WMT, $FEYE, $JKS, $LTBR and more …
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:
Good morning!
Twitter alert service at @SwingAlerts_CT. I know many have expressed interest in the email only, but the Twitter option is available going forward for those that prefer that. Please bear with us as we integrate and orientate ourselves to this new function in our daily routines.
This report (1 of 4) focuses on the more recent stocks we have added to our swing trading set-up coverage. They include; $TSLA, $SNAP, $VGX, $AAU, $AMMJ, $AGN, $CTSH, $IBB, $FEYE, $LACDF, $PCRX, $EWZ , $JKS. $RCL, $LTBR and newer yet $WMT Wallmart, $AMD Advanced Micro and $AAPL Apple coverage.
We are going to categorize our coverage soon because we are following more than we expected when we first started the service..
When managing your trades with the weekly reports keep in mind that you will have to invest an hour or two a week to check the indicators mentioned for buy and sell triggers. I was asked recently why we do not usually (although we do sometimes) include precise entry and exit points. The reason is simple, they don’t work – those services have terrible results.
Swing trading success, even with a service, does require “some” maintenance on the part of the user, although the new live alert service will take much of that burden off the user as we know many of our users have busy lives. It is the indicators lining up that signal a trade long entry or an exit. In our case rely heavily on MACD on daily or weekly (or Stoch RSI and Moving averages) but indicators we are basing our trade entry and exits on are listed with each trade so any user that does even moderate trade management will know when the indicator(s) have turn with or against the trade.
Intra-week you can always DM myself on Twitter or email with specific questions regarding trades you are considering for assistance. But it is critical that you attend to the maintenance of your signals at least once a week if not twice and set stops and preferably alarms so that intra-week you can enter or exit. If nothing else you can always book some coaching time and I’ll assist also (although we are at a point of waiting list for the coaching, at minimum you can get on list or for immediate help as I said please DM or email).
IF WE DON’T GET BACK TO YOU RIGHT AWAY it is usually because we are pressured with deadlines or are trading.

May 22 – Trading 14.95. Holding from 14.40. Weekly SQZMOM green and trending up, MACD trending up, 100 MA resistance at 19.58 intra. Daily not as good – MACD possibly turning down, SQZMOM green but turning down but on positive side 50 MA may breach 200 MA to upside. Holding for now.

May 22 – Trading 310.57. MACD is still trending down on daily so we are confident we are getting our pullback and then we’ll consider a long at that point (that MACD curls up).
May 15 – Trading 317.58. Still looking for a better pull-back entry.
May 8 – Trading 311.75. MACD is trending down (cooling), Stoch RSI isn’t yet, and SQZMOM is trending down. Waiting for the indicators to bottom and turn up for long if MA’s confirm.
We decided to start covering Tesla because we feel it is out of the woods so to speak. There are many factors, but the bottom line is we are ready to trade this long term. It is revved right now, but it won’t be for long and we expect an entry sooner than later based on the simple charting below.
May 1 – Waiting. It is too heated. Stoch RSI at bottom turned up, MACD at top indecision however, SQZMOM green but trending down.
April 21 – Trading 302.80. Stoch RSI is at bottom likely to curl up, MACD at top crossed down, squeeze momentum indicator green but turning down, holding 8 ema. Waiting for indicators to line up.

April 13, 2017 – We decided to add $SNAP to our coverage because some of our clients have asked us to cover it, plain and simple. So the challenge is that it does not have the history we like, so we have charted it on hourly for now. This is considered a high risk trade.
