Art & Science of Active Trend Trading Free Report Aug 7

Good Day Traders,
Overview & Highlights: Tonight’s report comes to you from Vancouver, WA. After the BAMM Meeting on Saturday my wife and I took off on a month long road trip. My intent is to write from the road and highlight the challenges of trading while on vacation. The first challenge is having adequate time to review for potential trades. Because we already have open positions I will insure I have stop losses and profit target orders in place in order to manage these trades. Two of the stock trades are Pre-Earnings trades on WBMD and IPHI that report on 8/8 AMC. These positions must be close before the close tomorrow. I’ve listed exactly how I’m setting up those order in that section of the report. The big thing to remember while travelling is trade management and not necessarily opening new positions until proper review can be done. The second is to use conditional order to do this management.
Webinars: At Active Trend Trading we offer two webinars per week to provide training plus trade and market updates. See the schedule below for the next webinars.

Topic: Fixing Bad Trades

General Market Observation: Last week each of the three Tracking Indexes provided a quick pullback to either the 8 or 20 day EMA’s then a bounce. There were no reversal candlestick patterns or even uniform pullbacks to plan off of. Just a quick intraday move that reversed the next day. Friday was strong for each of the Indexes with SPX moving to a new high and the NDX closing above last year’s high. The Russell still has more room to the upside before reaching last year’s high but is close the entering the resistance zone including last year’s high.

Currently there is some mild divergence but no signs of weakness in the price action on any of the Indexes. Right not we wait for a pullback entry to the long side. One of the members mentioned that the long trigger may have to come off an intraday hourly chart. While this is a potential currently we must wait even on the intraday to provide a potential signal.

SPX: Downside Market Short the SPY, SPY Puts or SPXU.
Preferred Long ETF’s: SPY, UPRO and SPXL

NDX: Downside Market Short the QQQ, QQQ Puts or SQQQ.
