$LMT $NOC $RTN All look good after N. Korea news today... here we go!
-
$GOOGL $5 off lod. much better than $AMZN.. Am looking for strength
-
$USO expect a huge weekly red candle to the 10.4 or 10.2 area, this gradual grind lower only accumulates more selling later
-
Brent falls to lowest level since 2004
-
Where is the promised breakout? Anyway, the dark cloud that followed $GE for 15 years has lifted. The steady stream of positive news is very encouraging for investors.
-
$FB .. Facebook plans to launch Oculus Rift, a virtual reality headset in early 2016
-
$GOOGL had trouble w/$777 today. Once thru $781, $793 and then $800's. Sounds crazy doesn't it? Coming soon.
-
$BA Bought this just below 145, now to sit on my hands and get paid
-
$GOOGL if it can stay over 770 and get over 780, next up is 790 with 800 on cards. May or may not be this week.
-
$FB Buy order set for 77.29, thta is what I'm gonna do
-
$USO $DWTI $UWTI Companies like $CXO $NOG are hedged at avg $80/barrel into 2016 but not 2017. This is why oversupply must last 1 more year.
-
$USO $CL_F Headlines on CNBC and the talking heads are all very bearish on crude prices. Gets me wondering if we are close to a bottom.
-
$CL_F $USO Expect some short covering into Fridays meeting. Especially after todays light volume down move. Range to watch 41.5-43.5
-
Buy (or short) equal dollar amounts of $UWTI and $DWTI @ $USO $42. Stop loss or manually cut the loser and let the winner run. Safe play.
-
$FB as of right now is high basing and as long as 100 holds bulls are fine or else it will enter consolidation mode,, all according to elliot wave theory
-
$USO My Put selling orders weren't filled, missed by a penny. I don't chase trades - discipline is key so I'm letting it go until next dip.

Yes, the Elliott Wave Principle is important, but it is not so often mentioned, apparently not everyone can understand it. I just want to say that this form of technical analysis works, but if you decide to take it seriously, you will need to get acquainted with this theory many a day. Difficulties in the Elliott wave theory is the identification of the waves. Usually, a corrective wave is difficult to determine. All feature is that each wave has a set of characteristics. And these characteristics depend on the market behavior. I read book Visual Guide to Elliott Wave Trading and it helped me a lot. And I advise you to do it. And it's applicable to commodities and bitcoin as well

$USO looking for another 2-3% drop where it traded less than 90 days ago, oil mkt is bearish, bring on $39's oil and lower and $145+ DWT
-
$FB let's see how far the momentum can take us before the next round of profit taking
-
You are not providing enough information for a response. A 20% DD for a strategy that provides 100% per year vs 8% per year would be very different. Also, is that DD for one day, one month or one year. What is the asset class you are trading?
-
$USO What a crock of unregulated manipulated pump and dump premarket bs with oil high of 41.30 in queue today for 39s prior to going lower.
-
I am going to hold this to end of earth if I have to. I believe in my judgement and the greatly undervalue placed on this company

Too Simple to Work? Advice Needed
JoelDarr replied to Traveller82's topic in Swing Trading and Position Trading
No edge here. Learn some basic programming skills, code the strategy and you will see the negative expectancy from a mile away. Make sure you have hundreds of iteractions, thousands better, before you can consider the report trustworthy. You got some of the brightest minds in the business trying to squeeze profits from the markets, you can't be that naive to think a simple moving average crossover system will make you profitable. If you get the right price action for it, it will look good, just like you did, but get the incorrect one, and it chops your head off and the losses wont make up for the winners. Sorry but it's not that easy, you gonna have to work much harder, much much harder. -

AMZN good finish, wish I had pulled trigger on 660P at $8.50 this morning. If doesn't dip big at open, will go calls. -
