  • Trade: HDNG

    I bought 500 shares of HDNG at $38.25. It’s a low float stock that showed up on my “trend pullback scan” last week, which placed it at the top of my primary watchlist. The stock printed a tail at support on Friday with a strong close, so I placed a…

  • Analyzing FTO trade

    A reader wanted a more in depth analysis of the FTO trade. The basic principle is as I stated when I made the trade: a pullback to support with a strong confirmation move. Let’s take a look at the chart: The first thing that jumps out at me is the…

  • Trade: NILE

    I sold 200 shares of NILE at $60.50 for a $410 gain (+3.5%). I am still holding the remaining 200 shares from yesterday’s trade, and have moved my stop to the entry point ($58.45). This locks in my current $410 gain, while “letting the rest ride”.

  • Today’s Trade: STLD, and SPX

    I went short 500 shares of STLD at $45.70. I had a short set just under the 50 day MA, which of course triggered today. I was also stopped out of my 300 share long position in STLD at $45.90 (entry at $47.70) for a 540 loss (-3.7 %). Note…

  • Today’s Trade: TMX

    I bought 400 shares of TMX at $40.88. It has been on my watchlist since May 20th. Mexican stocks have been on a tear, and I’m using the consolidation after the latest breakout as a jumping point. Any thoughts on this trade? Was the last breakout a continuation or exhaustion…

  • Chart: CCJ

    Way back in December, I had highlighted CCJ as a Uranium play on a breakout over $42. While I missed out on that trade, I entered today at $50.10, as it recovered from yesterday’s dip. Anybody care to analyze this trade?
