11:20: Here's how this works from here.

We had a beautiful pivot trade this morning.  Highly unlikely we are going to be doing any more trading today, but let's go over the numbers one more time.

Up above, we have the bull pivot coming in at 645.40.  We can create a small zone of overhead resistance towards 645.40 - 646.00.

Up above, we have another zone of overhead resistance at 647.30 - 648.40, and then a big fat round number at 650.00

On the flip side, if we come back down, the first support ZONE on the board is at 642.30 - 641.60.  Then another zone at 640.35 - 639.55.

Please don't do stupid stuff in the afternoon.

We'll be back, in uniform, ready to go for tomorrows session.

Have a great rest of the day folks and take care :)

See you in the video later tonight




10:20: No change. Still hanging around.

Doubt well be able to pull off another morning trade




9:54: No change.  Still finding support off of the 643.50.

Next destination is towards 644.80 for some more profit taking, and then the main target towards 645.40




9:36: How you doinnnn'

she's providing a little more than a base hit now.  She might have a little bit of resistance at 644.15.  

Another area of profit taking comes in at 644.80, and then up towards the first area of overhead resistance at 645.40 (front-end of the ZONE)




9:32: She did provide you the bare minimum base hit.  If she goes back for a retest, she'll try to spike down towards 643.25.

First ZONE of support comes in at 642.30 - 641.60




9:31: First destination on the downside for potential support is 643.50 - 643.25




9:00: What's the scoop for today?

No change from the Zero Dark Thirty Notes...

The Bear Pivot comes in at 643.50... We are extremely close to it right now, and we already came to test it in the pre-market.  I do have a number at 643.25, so traders can look for a spike of the number.

Getting below the bear pivot, she's bearish and will open the door towards the first support ZONE on the board at 642.30 - 641.60.

If she continues to decline, then the next support ZONE is towards 640.35 - 639.55.

On the flip side situation...

The BULL Pivot comes in at 645.40.  This is the first initial area of overhead resistance.

We can create a small zone of overhead resistance at 645.40 - 646.00.

If she gets above the most recent ATH, the next destination and overhead resistance ZONE is at 647.30 - 648.40.




EarlyThoughts (Zero Dark Thirty Stuff)

Good Morning and Happy Monday!

After that huge rally on Friday, Mrs. Market decided that she wants to gap a touch lower from Friday's close.

Let's get straight to business, starting with the morning BEAR PIVOT at 643.50.

We also have a BULL PIVOT for today at 645.40.

Let's start with the upside potential for today... If we get back towards the bull pivot (645.40), this will be an initial place of overhead resistance on the board.  We can create a small zone of overhead resistance at 645.40 - 646.00.  Once we start taking out the previous ATH, she'll want to make her way towards the next ZONE.

The next ZONE of overhead resistance comes in at 647.30 - 648.40.  This is a place where the market shouldn't just waltz right through... If she somehow does, the next target becomes 650.00, a big fat round number.

On the flip side situation...

We are currently hanging around the bear pivot.  This is the first inital place of support on the board.  She did manage to hit the 643.50 in the pre-market, so this means she still can do it again... but I do have another number at 643.25, which she can possibly spike down towards.  Very close to each other, but it's still a number on the board.  Just wanted to tell you guys so you're not surprised if they spike the pivot by a touch.

The next numbers down, which is also the next support ZONE, comes in at 642.30 - 641.60 for a bounce place with potential.  If we continue to drop 'em, the next destination becomes 640.35.

And there's your morning schematic

Be back shortly


















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.

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

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.
