    Did not play, but I thought GDX alarm was a short?

    Matt had mentioned the other day he took a long on gdx on that c down I believe. I took a swing long in the 31 range when he posted that and have held til now. Watching it and plan to sell in the 34-35 range depending on the market. 

    Nice Johnny - simply follow

    Nice Johnny - simply follow YOUR PLAN.   Now simply adjust on a daily basis in accordance with your style and risk tolerance. 

    GDX went up down and

    GDX went up down and up intraday.   I clearly posted the FOMC which is market moving.  DEFINE YOUR TRADING STYLE and TIMEFRAMES.  Key point here is to execute YOUR PLAN guys and don't get caught up in what others are doing (who cares) and stuff like alarms.  If you're trading the instrument follow YOUR PLAN. 

    For instance, an intraday trader would of had trigger short and then long today (assuming one avoided the opening gap) whereas a Swing Trader may have gone long a couple days ago and then had a more liberal stop.  What is your style?  TRADE ACCORDINGLY

    When C wave was first

    When C wave was first mentioned I sold puts on GDX and it worked out well. Thought was to collect premium in short time if it goes up and I get to buy shares at a desired entry otherwise. I may still buy shares after just closing out the trade.

    Well done - stick to

    I'm not being confrontational, just pointing out one did well going against the alarm, or playing subwaves inside a bigger pattern. Personally I struggle with the alarms so rtying to learn LOW risk entry. Such as Matts A B C inside the breakout.

    Forget about alarms - they

    Forget about alarms - they are meaningless for traders (simply a reminder) and delayed. Trade YOUR PLAN. The daily chart and intraday charts are 2 completely different charts.  The struggle I see and hear are those who DO NOT DEVISE AN APPROACH that suits their style.   

    Just my .02....Perhaps the alarms

    Just my .02....Perhaps the alarms should be removed so no confusion among any members?

    My misinterpretation! I associate alarm

    Posted by retirefire on 10th of Jun 2020 at 03:10 pm

    My misinterpretation! I associate alarm meaning pending buy, alert, breakout eminent.

    Guys this is Stated Clearly Under Trade Ideas - Please READ

    Trade Ideas:

    Please Note:The list of tables below are ported directly from the nightly newsletters.  This section is simply meant as a condensed list where you can see all the trade ideas in a simple tabular form from all the recent newsletters.

    There are two tabs, one for ‘New Ideas’ and one for follow up on recently trade ideas. When you click on the stock symbol, you will be brought to a page for that particular stock where you can play our recent audio comments and additional information.

    Remember these ideas are simply a list of trade ideas for you to choose from if they meet your risk tolerance and preferences. They are not buy and sell recommendations.

    Also the alarm pop up windows are simply alert prices that we set near the ‘breakpoint’ areas of the stock, they are simply alarm prices and not direct buy and sell signals. 

    One must certainly understand around an FOMC announcement you could get volatility and a change of direction to prior action. 

    got it, thanks Steve

    Update: GDX follow up

    Posted by matt on 10th of Jun 2020 at 02:52 pm

    GBTC - Chart Link - GBTC took off along with GDX

    GBTC - Chart Link - the daily pattern still intact - again the 60 min was for a 'tighter' trigger vs waiting for the daily - still it's up nearly 8% that's not a small move for a day
