Swing Trade Screen Picks – Still Tilted Buy

The latest screens resulted in 87 stocks meeting preliminary buy side criteria versus just 24 on the sell side. That compares with 79 buys and 18 sells the week before. Sells have all but disappeared, and buys are holding steady at a modest level.  Non-subscribers click here for access.

Next, I counted the signals that were triggered on Friday alone. After applying these trigger filters, just one of the preliminary sells qualified on Friday, while 11 of the buys did. That still does not signify broad thrust. I only liked 2 of the buys enough to add to the list. I did not add any sells.  Non-subscribers click here for access.

One pick hit its stop price last week. Another loser will be dropped based on today’s opening price. Dropping those and adding the 2 new ones, will leave 10 buys and 2 shorts on the list for this week.  Non-subscribers click here for access.

I have added or adjusted stops for several existing picks. New picks are added without stops. Risk management is assumed via multiple small positions that won’t break the bank if they go wrong.  Non-subscribers click here for access.

List performance was minimally positive last week. Including picks still open at the end of the week plus those stopped out during the week, the list had an average gain of 1.3 % with an average holding period of 11 calendar days. That compares with 2.3% with an average holding period of 18 calendar days, for the prior week. The change was mostly due to adding 8 new picks that started last week.  Non-subscribers click here for access.

For picks closed in May, it was a losing month. Picks closed out during the month had an average loss of 0.1% and an average holding period of 22 calendar days.  Non-subscribers click here for access.

For all picks closed out in April the average gain was 15.2% on an average holding period of 34 calendar days. Of those 7 were buys and 4 were shorts.   Non-subscribers click here for access.

Swing Trade Screen Picks – Plunging

No, the market isn’t plunging. I’m plunging on the buy side.  Non-subscribers click here for access.

Technical Trader subscribers click here to download the complete report.

List performance was positive last week. Including picks still open at the end of the week plus those stopped out during the week, the list had an average gain of 2.3% with an average holding period of 18 calendar days. That compared with the previous week’s average gain of 1.5% with an average holding period of 17 calendar days.  Non-subscribers click here for access.

The latest screens resulted in 79 stocks meeting preliminary buy side criteria versus only 18 on the sell side. That compares with 74 buys and 32 sells the week before. Sells have all but disappeared, and buys are holding steady at a low level.  Non-subscribers click here for access.

Next, I counted the signals that were triggered on Friday alone. After applying these trigger filters, just one of the 11 sells qualified on Friday, while 11 of the buys did. That does not signify broad thrust, but it’s a bigger number than we have seen lately. I liked 7 of the buys enough to take flyers and add to the list. The one sell that triggered had a nice ugly chart, so I will also add that one on the sell side. I will start tracking as of Tuesday this week, with Monday having been a holiday.  Non-subscribers click here for access.

Three picks hit stop prices last week. Dropping those and adding the 8 new ones, will leave 10 buys and 2 shorts on the list for this week. The 10 buys is a big number relative to the last couple of months, but consistent with the numbers in the past when the market was trending.  Non-subscribers click here for access.

I have added or adjusted stops for several existing picks. New picks are added without stops. Risk management is assumed via multiple small positions that won’t break the bank if they go wrong.  Non-subscribers click here for access.

For all picks closed out in April the average gain was 15.2% on an average holding period of 34 calendar days. Of those 7 were buys and 4 were shorts. 9 of the 11 picks closed out were profitable.  Non-subscribers click here for access.

Low Confidence, Limited Risk, Tilted Buy

List performance was slightly positive last week, but underperformed the market. Including picks still open at the end of the week, plus those stopped out during the week, the list had an average gain of 1.5% with an average holding period of 17 calendar days. This compares with the prior week’s drawdown of -0.4% on an average holding period of 15 calendar days. Non-subscribers click here for access.

The screening data lately has not kept up with the strength in the market averages, which are dominated by a few stocks. Non-subscribers click here for access.

The latest screens ferreted out 74 stocks that met buy side criteria on Friday before the trigger test. That was up from 32, the week before. There were just 14 sells versus 41 the week before. While the buys had a solid edge, it was not broad strength. Non-subscribers click here for access.

Next, I counted the signals that were triggered on Friday alone. After applying the trigger filters, none of the 14 sells hit their triggers on Friday, while 4 of the buys did. I liked two of them enough to add to the list and start tracking as of Monday. Non-subscribers click here for access.

With the 2 new picks and an existing pick stopped out last week, that will leave 5 buys and 2 shorts on the list for this week. 7 picks remains a low number relative to the 11 to 20 that we’ve typically had in recent months. This indicates low confidence and suggests limiting exposure. Non-subscribers click here for access.

5/6/24 For all picks closed out in April the average gain was 15.2% on an average holding period of 34 calendar days. Of those 7 were buys and 4 were shorts. 9 of the 11 picks close out were profitable. Non-subscribers click here for access.

Swing Trade Screen Picks – No Way!

List performance turned negative last week after more than 2 straight months of weekly gains. Including picks still open at the end of the week, plus those stopped out during the week, the list had an average drawdown of -0.4% on an average holding period of 15 calendar days. That compared with the prior week holding an average gain of 1.8% on an average holding period of 15 days. And that was down from an average gain of 7.8%. We could say that it’s early yet as the transition has been underway to a new set of trades, but that would bely the fact that there just don’t seem to be any good setups around.    Non-subscribers click here for access.

Here are this week’s suggestions and updates on prior picks that we are tracking.

Higher But Narrow

There are multiple indications that the market averages will move higher, but other signs that the advance remains narrowly based. Some stocks may be shortable.  Non subscribers click here to access.

Swing Trade Screen Picks – Surprise Shorts

List performance came back to earth last week after 3 months of strong gains. Including picks still open at the end of the week, plus those stopped out during the week, the average gain last week was 1.8% on an average holding period of 15 calendar days. This is down from an average gain of 7.8% on an average holding period of 21 calendar days in the previous week. Non-subscribers click here for access.

Technical Trader subscribers click here to download the complete report.

For all picks closed out in April the average gain was 15.2% on an average holding period of 34 calendar days. Of those 7 were buys and 4 were shorts. 9 of the 11 picks close out were profitable. Non-subscribers click here for access.

Past performance does not suggest future results. Non-subscribers click here for access.

The latest screens ferreted out 71 stocks that met buy side criteria on Friday before the trigger test, up from 45 the week before. There were 59 sells versus 26 the week before. Non-subscribers click here for access.

Next, I counted the signals that were triggered on Friday alone. That’s as opposed to the total number. The total includes those which triggered previously and continued to meet all other criteria to remain on that signal. Non-subscribers click here for access.

After applying the trigger filters, none of the 71 buys hit their triggers on Friday, while 8 of the sells did. As a result, I’m adding no buys and 4 shorts to the list this week. Including these new picks, that will leave 4 buys and 4 shorts on the list to start this week. Non-subscribers click here for access.

Don’t Trust, Verify

More proof is needed before we can relax in the view that a 6-month cycle up phase has begun. A strong up day could get the ball rolling, and suggest loading up on the buy side for swing trade purposes. Otherwise, a two way street would allow playing both directions. That is, look both ways before crossing. Here are specific things to look for as triggers. Non subscribers click here to access.
