An August update re: Seasonality and reversals off of ytd lows:

 

As this project developes in it's rudimentry form, i am looking for improving upon

it's profit and loss results.My basic parameters are:

 

1 Liquid traders having retrenched 40% from their last 90 day highs and near their ytd low

2. Separate into 3 groups: 0-99, 1.00-1.99, 2.00-3.99

3. Define reversal as 2 upticking sessions(higher closing price) confirmed in the third day

by either opening or at sometime during that seesion trading through the second days

close.

4. A trade is 1.5% of account

5. Stop loss set immediately 10% under entry.

6 .Half of position open sell 25% above entry

 

My 0-.99 list:

 

ANO in .63 current .63

ASTI .72/.98

CHLN .99/1.03

CYCC .81/.83

DSTI .30/.30

NBY .86/.92

NTWK .89/.93

GRO .77/1.10

 

there were 6 positions stopped out.

 

My 1.00-1.99 positions are:

 

BIOD 1.15/1.22

BZH 1.63/1.98

CHINA 1.30/1.33

COMV 1.72/2.29

The list for 2.00-3.99

 

AVNR 2.73/3.00

JRJC 2.80/2.85

KIPS 2.30/3.08

QTWW 3.05/3.23

RDNT 2.63/2.71

ZA 2.77/2.87

 

There were 3 stopped out positions.

 

The recent volatility has me wondering about original stops and whether they should be

increased. Also, should they be different within the sub groups.

 

From July's candidates there were some staggering upside moves quickly

ABAT, IRE, KNDI, NFEC, SCEI, VALV, GBE, GRO, CCRT, NEWN, USBI

 

Capturing these high flyers with trailing stop profit orders ensured a tidy profit overall.

It seems reasonable that off of ytd lows there will be more of the same notwithstanding

a meltdown.I've noticed that the larger the retracement the better the results,so that is

another filter to maybe recalibrate.

 

This work in progress has some features I'm sure are flawed and I would like others

with a greater understanding to comment on the pros if there are any and the cons which which I'm sure there are many :-)

 

New positions made today;

 

DYAX 1.42

EDAP 2.30

LLEN 3.45

PM .26

SPMD 2.24

TSPT 2.84I

 

I must say I enjoy getting long near the bottom with a HINT of a possible reversal.

When I first saw you post about penny stocks I though that its usual gambling in which beginners are tempted.

 

But I must admit the model is impressive. I never really traded in penny stocks and its good to read your posts.

there were 4 stopped out positions including DLGC

 

The sub group 0-.99 was by far the worst performers with 6 of 16 being stopped out.

They will be eliminated henceforth.

 

the middle group 1.00 - 1.99 had 8 out of 32 stopped out...that's doable

The last group was the most promising 2.00-3.99 had only 4 of 25 stopped out.

 

Since the stopped out positions represent a loss of .15% of the account

a few high flyers managed with trailing stops should suffice.Once the +25%

threshold has been met the trailing stops are placed 10% under that days close.

 

Positions entered today start Septembers list

 

ANX 1.08

CNTF 2.68

EEE 1.13

EXM 2.02

ECTY 2.20

MCOX 1.95

Time to short AAPL? anyone else tracking this stock?

 

I've been trading AAPL for some time ... I'm not in it right now simply because of the entire equity environment ... but after the next shakeout - I will be back LONG. While I am waiting, however, I've sold some naked puts against the stock at 10% below current prices. That is a strategy of mine for any stock I am long term bullish on but waiting for prices to come down.

 

Why would you short? Because of macro issues or because you think AAPL has had its run?

 

thx

Actually I meant in the short term.

 

AAPL was outperforming market since last month or so... and Technology sector as a whole on up days. This relationship has changed; the markets apparently bounced this week from important 'trough', but this stock does not shows bull enthusiasm. I do not particularly like a stock opening significantly up but closing in red :)

On daily charts, it closely resembles a classic exhaustion, ending with wide range bar.

I also do not like the media attention the stock has been getting lately, everyone wants to own it.

AAPL bounced back from 360s hysterically upto 420...

 

AAPL's rally on daily charts is over. Until there is significant rally (100+ points) in SnP itself, it will not see new highs.

 

is that a prediction? or verbal diarrhea?

    • Date: 21st November 2024. Gold Regains Momentum as NVIDIA Delivers a Revenue Surge! NVIDIA beat earnings expectations, and nearly doubled revenue on an annual basis. NVIDIA stocks dip slightly despite strong earnings and a strong forecast for the current quarter. Analysts expect market participants to purchase the dip. The Japanese Yen wins back some ground as Bank of Japan Governor indicates the regulator will be willing to hike to support the FX market. Gold, Silver and other Metals all rise due to predictions of high retail and institutional demand and geopolitical tensions remaining high. NASDAQ – NVIDIA Surpasses Earnings Expectations! The NASDAQ took a sudden dip on Wednesday measuring 1.50%, however, investors quickly took the opportunity to purchase at the lower price as most indicators fell to give an oversold indication. As a result, the NASDAQ ended the day only slightly lower than the open price, but downward momentum remains this morning. The downward momentum is partially due to geopolitical tensions which are on the rise. Yesterday, Ukraine fired UK-made missiles into Russia and fired US-made the day before. There are also reports and speculations that Russia has sent ICB Missiles into Ukraine for the first time. However, reports are not confirmed, and there are signs of certain stocks recovering. Currently, there is no economic data which is driving the lack of demand, therefore investors are mainly concentrating on NVIDIA earnings. NVIDIA beat earnings expectations by 8.50% and revenue by 5.90%. Investors were particularly impressed by the significantly higher revenue which has almost doubled annually. In addition to this, the forecast given for the current quarter came in relatively strong. Lastly, the CEO, Jenson Huang, said to Bloomberg that demand exceeds supply but the company is setting in place measures to boost supply in order to meet the high level of demand. Taking into consideration the strong earnings, positive tone and upbeat forecasts for the coming quarter, many may wonder, “why is the stock declining 2.50% during this morning’s Asian session?”. This is partially due to the lower risk appetite, but also due to certain forecast expectations for NVIDIA not being met. The average NVIDIA forecast expectations from Wall Street firms was $37.1 billion, which NVIDIA comfortably surpassed. However, certain firms had expectations as high as $41 billion. Based on these higher expectations, the company underachieved and could trigger a lack of demand from this sector of Wall Street. Though many analysts continue to expect shareholders to purchase the lower price as long as the stock market will remain favorable.   EURJPY – BOJ To Consider Hike! The EURJPY declines for a second consecutive day, particularly gaining bearish momentum after this morning’s Bank of Japan press conference. The main takeaway from the press conference was that the Governor told journalists that the BOJ was willing to hike interest rates in the upcoming months but decisions will be made meeting by meeting. The Bank of Japan’s decision to raise interest rates in July was influenced in part by the weak Yen, which had driven up import costs and inflation. At the Europlace Financial Forum in Tokyo, Governor Kazuo Ueda emphasized that exchange-rate fluctuations are a key consideration in shaping economic and inflation forecasts. He noted that the central bank carefully examines what is driving these currency changes when assessing their impact. The EURJPY now trades below the 75-Bar Exponential Moving Average and below the 50.00 on the RSI. In addition to this, the exchange rate continues to form lower swing lows while the Euro underperforms against most currencies. These indications point towards a potential downward price movement.   Gold – Geopolitical Tensions Send Gold on a Bullish Path! Gold has increased in value for a fourth consecutive day, driven largely by geopolitical tensions. Additionally, the absence of significant US economic news has left markets uncertain about the Federal Reserve’s next move. Gold is currently witnessing an active buy signal from most momentum-based indicators due to the strong bullish momentum. For example, traders are able to see the price trading above the Bollinger Band, within a bullish moving average crossover and significantly high on most oscilators. However, investors should note as the price increases, the asset can become overbought and this may trigger a retracement, a correction or sideways price movement. In terms of geopolitical tensions, hopes for a Middle East ceasefire are being tempered by Russia’s revision of its nuclear doctrine, which aims to strengthen its borders after the US-approved long-range strikes from Ukraine reached deep into Russian territory. Meanwhile, Donald Trump’s re-election has yet to significantly influence the conflict, though markets remain optimistic about potential positive developments following his January 20 inauguration.
