Trading Ideas

SMB Morning Rundown – March 10, 2010

Today, the Market appears set to open flat. The levels we are watching in the SPY are 114.07 (sup) and 114.50 (res). Below 114.07, the next support levels are 113.70 and 113. Above 114.50, the next resistance level is 115. Our best AM Idea for today, which we highlighted in our AM Meeting is to buy AIG on a pullback to 32.00. Tgt: 33.50 Don't forget to follow us on Twitter!

Technical Plays

THE NOTHING TRADE

I bought a stock today after it cleared an important resistance level. It was neither strong nor weak. I didn't sell it. I didn't buy more. I am still just sitting there holding. I am not confident it will trade higher nor am I concerned I will get stopped out. I am not optimistic nor pessimistic. This trade is a nothing. RIMM could just not trade above 74.60 the ...

Trading Theory

What Type of Market Are We In?

We are in a downtrending market!  What?  We are in a downtrending market!! What? downtrend!!!!!! What does this mean for short term traders? Short stocks if they pop to previous support levels If the market trends up for two days then pray for a third day gap up so you can short the market!! Trade with less size as downtrending markets tend to be more volatile Be mentally prepared for the market to meltdown at any time.  See traderfeed.blogspot.com ...

Trading Psychology

Breaking Your Keyboard

I know when you trade it is best to stay calm.  And busting your keyboard is not keeping cool.  I get and have blogged that you make poor trading decisions when you are not in the zone.   But having sat on a prop desk the past 12 years of my life I have heard and seen many smashed, broken and eliminated.  Instead of pretending no one gets upset or that this is somehow a ...

Reading The Tape

Its Probably Going Up

I started trading AAPL around 10AM this morning. I noticed it held its small gap from the Open and that each time it was dropping below 202 it would quickly recover. I also noticed that each time it popped above 202.50 that it would fail to hold the bid and drop back down. My thought process was that AAPL had been strong on Thursday and Friday and since it held the opening gap that ...

Fundamental Plays

SEED money for the New Year

There’s always something to trade. You just have to be where the volume is. It can take one good stock to make your week, and one good week to make your month. 90% of life is showing up, and for those who showed up today, there was money to be made. We had a repeat offender today, our good old buddy Origin Agritech, ticker SEED. Maybe there’s a hedge fund out there that needs to ...
