I am intrigued by these Gap-up set-ups. On most days, I'd be
done with the trades before my 2nd cup of coffee. Screening for
trade candidates is my stumbling block, however. I know you use
Finviz [I do too], but getting extended-hours data is restricted to
"Elite" members. Have you bitten the bullet and become "elite," or
are you using some other screening technique to find your gap-up
candidates. Your longtime member, Don Sadler
I exited @ 28.90, stuck $170 in my pocket, along with the $635
on the 1st contract; I'm not complaining. Considering our
Tweeter-in-Chief, I'll wait to re-enter after his next China
tirade.
I picked it up cheap yesterday [9.12] on a retracement from the
alarm price [9.25]. I'll attempt to sell half my position near
today's high [9.80], & hope for the price to climb to the 50ma
to sell the rest.
The 1/.25 Renko bars form very quickly. Do you enter with a
"market" order as soon as you see a reversal, or slide a stop
up/down the matrix using the BPT_Renko_Bar Prices?
And have you discovered a way to avoid the "false" reversal bars
such as those "shorts" on your chart occurring shortly before
11:15? Btw - I've been using 2/.5 bars with some success, though
entries & false reversals still plague me.
That crazy spike is called a STOP RUN. One of the humongous
hedge funds bought all the sell stops between the projected close
and some spot below the 200-day avg., then sold them at/near the
real close. The fund pocketed a $zillion; the rest of us
bupkus.

Out-of-pocket Friday afternoon, so I missed the exit signal on my SPY Pro puts. Sold at the open today for a 164% gain.
Thanks for the trade alert.

Waiting on Oprah
WTW
Posted by dsadler on 25th of Jan 2016 at 05:07 pm
I own this at 13.5 and have a GTC order to double my holdings if it fills the gap to 8. Once Oprah loses 20 lbs. I expect WTW to trade at 25+.
