Stocks on the Move

Stocks on the Move notes - Must Read

  • Stops - HC< represents hourly close below.  HC> represents hourly close above  (Hourly closes on the half hour)
  • Objective of these opportunities is to find intraday support (or resistance) for a day trade opportunity, or at least a reasonable bounce off the target prices.  They should be managed according to the strategies from the LazyEminiTrader course.  Entries are either at or below target.  Target is the math, many times prices will get spike through...
  • These trades are a one and done.  They are a one shot deal, no second and third helpings as they are not the same trade after the first hit.
  • Trades are intended for regular market hours, these are not to be traded pre market or after hours when the volume isn't the same.
  • These are intended for day trades only.
  • Entries on these can be at target or beyond.  These prices are not based on a short term time frame which means price can dig in at times.  If there is more than one target entry price, traders can average in, meaning take a partial positi at the first and add if the stock continues to the next target.  Stops will always be below the last target entry.  (Entering close to risk seems scary, but is generally correct)
  • Stocks opening below or at a target eliminates that target price, traders then look to the next target if one is listed.
  • JmpTgt means the trade is off the table.  The stock would have opened above or below a target entry which takes it off the table.
  • Always remember, they won't all work, respect the stops
  • Targets represent regular trading hours only
  • If a stop is too wide for your liking, pass on the trade.  The stop is not an arbitrary number.
  • Price targets can be adjusted during the pre market hours based on movement of the stock.  What's on the board at 9:15 AM EST will stay and no further changes will be made.
  • Refresh screen to make sure you’re viewing the latest companies on the move and their next target price



Important Support & Resistance Numbers for Today

Notes about the Numbers - Must Read

  • Prices based on support and resistance zones during regular trading hours only, no pre-market or after hours prices are used
  • These are “important” numbers.  If price is below they are resistance, if above they are support.
  • Support and resistance prices will be updated throughout the day as necessary
  • If two prices are close together, the market can hit one or both. Weaker markets will hit one, stronger markets will hit both
  • Support doesn’t always mean buy, resistance doesn’t always mean sell. They are also targets to exit trades
  • All hourly closes take place on the half hour.  10:30, 11:30, etc…
  • Always consider current market conditions, short and intermediate trends and especially all the material taught in the LazyEminiTrader course to determine entries and exits



Disclaimer (Not fine print, same as everything else):

It might be hard to believe, but it’s necessary to put certain things in writing so we’re all on the same page.

Trading comes with risk.  This means any trade taken can be a losing trade – that’s the way this business works.  We all need to understand and recognize this is a reality.

Any and every trade taken is your own doing, your own trade and your own responsibility.

The information taught in the LazyEminiTrader and LazyGapTrader courses are for educational purposes and designed for individual investors and traders to learn how to become self sufficient and act on their own.

Any and all information and prices found on this page are also for informational purposes.  All prices found on this page are for guideline purposes only.  Any support and resistance level can fail at any time, on any chart.

We always trade with stops.

If this isn’t clear, here’s an easy way to understand things – Don’t trade with money you can’t afford to lose.  Don’t take a position where you can’t take your hand off the mouse because it’s too nerve racking.  When you enter a trade where a stock is falling into support, you can expect to be out of the money for a while before the support takes hold – if it does.  Understand the business you’re in.  It’s not a casino and traders play for keeps to feed their families.
