S&P 500 60 Min

Yep. :D:D. For my 401K I tend to trade with wider stops because i dont like to be so active in that account and I base my stops off weekly charts instead of hourly charts like this account. So SRPT was a HUGE win for me so far there because I left the stop as it was when I entered the trade...

My TA in brief today. Gold and gold miners had another rally today with the Japanese Yen having a slight downward move today. Both the Yen and Gold prices have been nearly lock step in line with one another since 8-2016,...Except for today,....so I expect Gold to follow downward tomorrow. Both...

Yes I still like it. But it's not performing quite the way I expect. Will watch closely even though so far it's profitable. @themickey. Thanks for the input but my stops rarely get hit unless there really is a need to be out of the position. Will look for a buying opportunity lower but we will...

Stopped out of BAC.

@vanzandt did you buy in on BOX?

@themickey I saw your comments in your journal but I thought you were LONG GDX yesterday. Hope you made a profit if you were. I had some time to commment and just updating my Journal. Since I got back in on some of my trades except JBLU so I thought I should continue this Journal full circle...

Had to chase a litlle bit. BOX = LONG $18.71. Stop $17.52. Target $21.5 and $25.

So far I have been mentioning several stocks I like. I guess I will update periodically but not as detailed but only to continue the stocks mentioned thus far. BAC = LONG @ $24.52 Stop loss @ $23.83. Target $32.

Happened a day later than expected but here it is,...

Just went SHORT 0.5% risk on GDX @ $22.02. with stop loss at original entry point $22.43. So that makes original trade short a breakeven if I am wrong and this one only 0.5% risk. So playing with some profit here and adding to a winning position. As far as BOX it looks like a good buy at this...

I am not busting your balls over this post but there are several things you are missing here. I find it interesting that you post this because this is basically what I do. The reason it's not that easy as it sounds is that in the exact moment of the trade these things are not so obvious. How...

And,...so the Volatility begins. Wow if only TA had been able to help us in this situation,....OH thats RIGHT...IT DID :sneaky::D. Glad I preserved profits yesterday. SRPT stop close to being hit but GDX still quite profitable and having a weak day with 0.86% loss so my SHORT GDX is making...

First let me say I do not trade NQ so what I am offering is a suggested starting point for you to see how these ideas MAY work for your system. Second, I am going to assume you have no idea what ATR is so do not take it as if I am talking down to you. I just dont know what you do or do not...

Thank you both

Yes. I will post a chart of what I mean later

Here is why I decided to book profits. Both $Tran and S&P reached the upper edges of the trend channels and made a reversal. The $Tran is also showing bearish divergences. NSC and JBLU are both transportation stocks. Even though I got into JBLU earlier today I placed the order on Friday and I...

I use ATR but not on NQ. I use it to help me determine stop loss as you suggest. But ATR is the AVERAGE true range....so that means that this price variation is the AVERAGE one would see in whatever time period you set the ATR to. So, why would you want to set the stop loss just barely beyond...

Decided to close down this Journal. It just takes too much time to update and to update in a timely manner is not always easy for me given my daily 9-5 job. Will not be adding any more trades long or short except to close out the current LONG SRPT and SHORT GDX trades to come full circle...

Given my TA of this week I think we will see a retracement and want to lock in profits here. Also CENX was up over 4% today and made a strong reversal. Will not be able to watch the markets as well this week and taking profits in CENX and NSC. Sold all of position in NSC at $122.98 and CENX at...
