Swing Trade Screen Picks and Results – Pruning, Protecting Profits, No New Picks

Lee Adler

Picks open as of the October close, or closed last week, showed an average gain of 11.6%, up from 7.5% the previous week, with an average holding period of 30 calendar days, up from 24, the previous week. Past performance does not indicate future results. 

Buy setups were again predominant. Setups are not guarantees. They are valid only when short-term signals follow. Therefore, the next screening layer looks for short-term trigger signals from within the stocks that have met the setup criteria.

On that basis, the results this week are as follows:

Gold Trader Update: Gold Blows

Lee Adler

Gold has exceeded long term trend limits. In the short run, the 4 week cycle has reached its projection, but the 13 week cycle still points to xxxx, ideally due by xxxxxxx xx. Closing below xxxx next week would be needed to break the uptrend. The gain in miner swing trades is now 44.7% over an average holding period of 8 weeks. With the charts now extended, I have added trailing stop recommendations.

Gold Trader Update: The Uptrend Grows More Dangerous

Lee Adler

All cycles have entered or appear about to enter corrective down phases.  Trend support is in the xxxx range for the week ahead. That needs to hold to keep the uptrend intact. If it holds, then a run to xxxx could follow. If it breaks, then a drop to support indicated around xxxx would be likely. But it is the long term charts that suggest that the greatest risk is building. There are no changes to miner swing trade chart picks, now showing average gains of 16% over 6 weeks.
