NEWR Kaboom! you guys aren't trading the setups!

    Posted by matt on 17th of May 2023 at 07:05 pm

    NEWR - Chart Link- one heck of a move on this puppy today, been on the list since last week, on Monday, on Wednesday - and no one commented on it today with this move

    guys - I know the newsletters have a lot of charts and stuff, but again try and focus on some of the trade ideas - there's not a ton of new ones lately, a few a day, and these are the bread and butter - they make you money

    Setups -  I haven't had

    Setups -  I haven't had great luck with them over the years, but I probably just have bad luck with the ones I pick and then got turned off and focused on the general market where I know I can make money consistently.

    What I would love is a minor tweak to the setup section that gives one or two picks with your screening magic but with some additional filters added on:

    - Above $5 per share
    - Liquid
    -  Optionable
    -  Measurable PE ratio. Positive and less than 2X projected growth rate.

    Essentially a "quality"pick in the setups section. The screen likely wouldn't always generate results, but it would be nice to have them posted when it does.  Of course, I can't exactly do this myself because I'm missing the baseline screening magic that you and Steve bring to the table.

    *Some of us have to be ready, willing and able to explain our thought process on trades at any given moment. Sticking with perceived quality is something of a shield. 

    regarding setups. I do not

    regarding setups. I do not trade them for similar reasons as stated. In addition, I would like a setup to be confirmed by a momentum indicator similar to SPY systems, as I cannot watch them during the day.  A squeeze indicator should be of help here, yet I am not an expert on its use yet.

    To be actionable, setups ought to be vetted by internals in addition to looking right. If one can watch them during the day, this is not necessary, of course. Most of people posting here cannot afford that luxury, in my humble opinion. This is not a criticism of the idea or the way others do it.

    True. But when I don't

    True. But when I don't take a trade idea, they look like APLD or IONQ or NEWR. When I do, they look like GEO or ROIV or YINN. Not always true, but I've had a little bad luck in this area lately, and yes, I entered a little late on GEO. I'm still in each of those and they may yet turn out OK.
