Swing Trade Screen Picks – Traders, Take Your Naps

For the week ended March 28, there were 30 charts with multiple buy signals as of the last two trading days. There were 5 multiple sells. Non-subscribers click here for access. Technical Trader subscribers click here to download the complete report.

Two weeks ago there were 3 buys and 482 sells. But the Fed changed the game a few days later, and all those sell signals were turned on their heads. As I wrote in the Liquidity Trader analysis that weekend, given the uncertainties around just what current monetary policy even is, let alone what the effects will be, I wanted to stand aside and watch for a week. At least. Now that things have shaken out a bit, it’s time to take another look at the individual charts to see if anything looks good for a trade.

Nothing did on the short side. And the longs were completely uninspiring. The one that I liked is dull, but the chart has room for a pop. That’s xxxx. Non-subscribers click here for access.

All of the shorts that were on the list save one, hit their stops and were dropped as of that point. There’s one left. I adjusted the stop on that.

That’s all for this week. Yawn.

I think I’ll take a nap.

The strategy and tactics opinions expressed in this report illustrate one particular approach to trading. No representation is made that it is the best approach, or even suitable for any particular investor. This is a developmental and experimental exercise, for the purpose of providing experienced chart traders with ideas and concepts to use or not use as they see fit. 

Nothing in this letter is meant as individual investment advice and you should not construe it as such. These picks are illustrative and theoretical. The method behind these picks is experimental, and may change over time.  I may trade my own account, and may buy, sell, sell short or cover short, or have positions in any of the stocks on the list at any time, based on a particular trading style that is unique to me. My entry and close out levels are likely to differ from those published due to the exigencies of my trading style and time constraints. I post these items in good faith for informational and educational purposes, and do not take positions in opposition to those which are published. All chart picks are actively traded stocks, and I assume that no subscriber to these reports, nor the total of all subscribers taking positions, would do so in a size that would influence the market price. 

Performance tracking assumes 100% cash basis, no margin, no options. You should not assume that recent performance as reported can or will be repeated in the future. Trading involves risk of loss. In the case of options, the loss can be 100% of the amount invested. When leverage is used the loss can exceed the account equity under certain conditions.

The opinions expressed here assume that readers are experienced investors or are working with an investment advisor.
