Trades for 10th October,2012

Trade  1


 
















RIMM                     This was picked from our gap list in the morning.
                                Was weak yesterday.

                                Entry  7.75  
                                Stop   7.80

                                Target  1         7.60                   1/2   +.15
                                Target  2         7.50                    Never  hit.

                                 We were stopped out      1/2  to b/e.
                             
                                 risk/Return       .05/.15     =300%

                                Even though we were   stopped out we still  got a nice trade.
                                This is why trade management is very important.

Trade 2

                                 
















Short VIAB                  VIAB also was in our morning gap list.

                                    Entry  54.99
                                    Stop   55.15

                                    Trade was not doing what we expected to do . So we reduced the
                                     Stop to .55.10  then to 55.02

                                    We were stopped out for a loss of  -.03!And VIAB jumped up
                                    almost .40 .  See how we reduced our loss to just 3 cents from the
                                    original 16 cents.You   need quick  analysis of the situation ,focus
                                    and definitive action.

                                    That is why your trader education is so important. 


Trade  3



   















Long  QCOR           QCOR  had  a beautiful drop in the morning that we could not
                                find an entry to get in to. So we waited for it to drop and
                                found an entry to  go long right at the bottom.

                                Entry       20.14
                                Stop        19.99

                               Target    1      20.30                         1/2   +.15
                               Target   2      20.50                         never hit.
                                Moved our stop to  .14 to b/e and we were stopped.

                               Fast trade.  Moved on .

Trade 4 



















Short MNST         This pattern  has to be approached with caution.
                             
                             Entry   53.75
                             Stop    54.01

                             Target   1    53.65               1/3    +.10
                             Target   2    53.60               1/3    +.15
                             Target   3    53.00               Never hit.
                             Lowered stop to .80          Stopped 1/3 -.05

                            If you noticed  in  all  of the trades some part was stopped out.
                            Because SPY was indecisive most  of the day. It wanted
                            to go up and then down.This brings confusion to the market.
                            That is why trade management and profit taking  are so crucial.
                            You have to learn the art of trading.

                            Beauty is with all the indecision in the market we still
                            ended  up  with a profit!.

                           Also we traded all our trades today off 2 min charts.

                            All done by 1.37 pm.
