NXY Trading Idea

More fodder for sellers. NXY is ready to setup by breaking lower. The stock has formed your typical consolidation/triangle/bear flag. It doesn’t really matter. At some point in my trading career I realized that picture perfect patterns didn’t always make money. You just get a feel for what patterns should work and what patterns shouldn’t. The stock has broken and closed below its weekly 50 SMA. Once it breaks 29ish, next stop is 24 with an ultimate target of the weekly 200 SMA at 21.

Trading Ideas Update

I’m out of the AGU trade at breakeven. I mismanaged that one. Longs at the end of a bull move never seem to workout for me. With obvious reasons, they can’t stand up to the blistering assault of negative market direction.

Out of the KGC trade for a 3R gain.

The IBM trade consolidating. Still looking very bearish.

The EDU trade is also acting well. However, I would like to see it stay under its 50 SMA.

Looks like I was spitting into the wind with VIVO. 1R Loss.

I didn’t take the INTC or MSFT trades. You may want to see how they behave intra day on Monday for another entry.
