Quick Summary:
Still watching SPY 190 (long) and 195 (short). Video on WYNN and dealing with gap downs, along with focus list analysis. Breakout-pullbacks of interest include BIDU, EGHT, LPNT, UA, ISRG and BIDU. New additions ZU and PNRA. Market leader stocks of interest include GOOGL, PCLN, Z and TSLA.
Video Analysis (11 minutes):
Today I talk about the gap down in WYNN and how to handle an opening gap down when you are in a trade. The rest of the discussion is around focus list stocks and a few new breakouts
Key SPY Pivot Levels: 199 : recent old high, 195.25: 50 dma, 190 gap fill and support level
Under the Hood and Trading Game Plan:
Little has changed in the SPY chart. We continue to look to short around $195 and go long around $190, while placing close attention to the volume patterns that accompany price movement.
IWM again was a little stronger than SPY. As with SPY, I am looking to short on a low volume bounce and enter on a down move to around $108. Notice how the IWM has bounced in the past at this level (arrows on chart).
Current Trades
I am still holding DECK, TWTR and WYNN. WYNN gapped down hard and is discussed in the video.
The Trade Journal results
The Focus List
For now I only have the catalyst driven breakouts on the focus list.
EGHT, LPNT, UA, ISRG and BIDU are all near entry level on slight pullbacks.
New Additions:
ZU has been forming a bottoming range since the May gap down. Volume has been good within this range and now we have a breakout over the 50dma. Entry on pullback to $37-38. Initial target $42.50. Stop just under the 50 dma around $36.
PNRA is another bottoming formation showing signs of breakout out. The stock broke out on strong volume and is now pulling back just under the 50dma. Entry in the $145-146.50 range. Initial target between $155-160.
I have Daddy/Daughter brunch at Panera once a week with my daughters, so I love that this stock is picking up.
Market Leaders
These are stocks that I always watch, though they might not be in my tradeable watchlist, nor are they actually always leading the market.
TSLA breaking out. Looking for pullback to $150. FB pulling back to gapfill. Z is entering buy area on pullback. GOOGL nearing moving average support at $560. PCLN pulling back nicely post breakout.
