  1. Apple Core

    It’s been a little while since I posted a trade on Apple, so here’s one from Monday’s session: It’s standard stuff from this core stock — a textbook entry then an exit when the momentum dried up and the price…

  2. Boeing Still Bringing Home The Bacon

    It’s been a while since I posted a Boeing trade, but the beleaguered plane-maker is still providing boundless of opportunities to makes bundles of cash. Here’s a quickie from Friday’s session: With such a high-priced stock, I’m trading smaller than…

  3. A TMUS Two-Biter

    Just time to post one trade today, which actually turned out to be two. The first one failed miserably, as we can see from the chart. The golden rule, as we know. is to never let a winning trade turn…

  4. Late Lunch Earns $1,040

    Viacom was on my list but spent most of the morning faffing around on (relatively) low volume doing nothing very interesting at all. Then, just as I was about to call it a day, this happened: Volume and momentum picked…

  5. Trade, Wednesday 20th March 2019

    Just got time to post a very quick one from Wednesday. Here’s AMD, which is a reliable old core stock: All standard fare. Exit was on momentum drying up. Those off-chart factors are so, so important. Find two or three…

  6. $1,420 of Bread and Butter (Trades)

  7. Making Money From Facebook

    If there’s one company whose problems I definitely have no qualms about profiting from, it’s Facebook. Here’s a trade from Friday: It’s all fairly standard fare. A regular entry, quick drop with a price target in mind, and when it…

  8. Trade, Thursday 14th March 2019

    It’s been a busy week. BA had some tradeable moves again yesterday, but the huge swings from the first two days of that news cycle seem to be behind us. With the USA grounding the fleet as well, the worst…

  9. $4,580 Profit From One Stock

    Let’s look at something other than BA, which although it had another massive move, was less interesting than it has been for the last couple of days. Here’s what happenend on ROKU: This was a three-biter, and two of those…

  10. The Boing Carnage Continues (Trades)

    Given the worsening news for Boeing (large parts of Europe banned the 737 Max from their airspace on Monday), the stock was another obvious candidate for trading. Yesterday I wrote about the ethics of profitiing from a disaster, so I…
