Trading 4 Living-get TOMORROW's movers TODAY

Have you held it?

2011-11-13T23:54:00.000-08:00

The following is from my Wednesday's newsletter, "Some volatility is normal, I still think we have further upside. But more decline will change my bullish stance". Last week some traders I watched got scared and went short, which was understandable, but too early and plainly wrong. My model said to cut some losses, at most. And that is what I did. Sold some to raise capital and ready to jump back in. This week I think we rocket higher!

How to take a defensive posture? Mark Minvervini gave us details:

1. Get off margin immediately
2. Raise at least 25-50% cash
3. If you choose to trade, take smaller than normal position sizes
4. Reduce overexposure in any one industry group and diversify more broadly
5. Reduce exposure to high beta stocks
6. Avoid laggard stocks (even if they look cheap)
7. Nail down profits when you have them (be less greedy)
8. Tighten up your stop-losses (be less forgiving)
9. Sell all stocks that break down in price (especially if they can’t rally)
10. Upgrade in quality and reduce exposure to low priced stocks

We lost retail and semi

2011-01-06T18:41:00.000-08:00

Retail and semiconductors, two leading sectors that led this powerful rally off the September low, breaks the uptrend today. The breakdown also confirms my caution near term.

Time to be cautious

2011-01-04T18:53:00.000-08:00

It has been a long time since I posted the good and bad analysis. Now I think it is the time again. First, the good part. The market is still in a confirmed uptrend and there are still some stocks breaking out. Now the bad part. The market leaders have stopped leading, namely BIDU, CMG, NFLX, CRM etc. The Chinese speculative small caps are on fire, namely SHZ, CHGS, which usually indicates an end of the move. The bullish sentiment is way too high that usually comes in near a top. In conclusion, the market is due for some sort of pullback and I am cautious near term.
