Just a couple of Trade ideas

March 25, 2014    Today I just wanted to look at a couple of charts that look to have decent low risk set ups.

  Low risk, of course, means that if one enters a trade, they also know where to set stops (according to each ones “risk parameter”) , and if the stock doesnt do what we thought it would from here,  exit and re-assess. Please use stops.

 I still like all of the set ups on our STEEL STOCKS and I still own   X and AKS , They probably will not move straight up, but they are still acting correctly and may be forming the right side of a CUP

AKS MARCH 25

Here are a few other ideas…

I bought Atlantic Power  ‘AT’  today after it crossed the 50sma. I didnt tweet the buy , because I may be a little early since there is resistance overhead. IF it surges above this orange resistance line, It has great upside potential , I.M.H.O.

AT

PZE Also OIL & GAS – Volume has been decreasing, so I actually expect a pullback  (possible to the 50sma). If it drops on light volume, one could BUY near the 50sma and place their stop below the trend-line. If it breaks higher from here, it needs stronger volume or buying will fade out and it will likely drop & consolidate further. Do NOT buy a light volume break out.

PZE

BLYTH has an interesting set up.It pushed against its 50sma for weeks and finally broke upward .  It’s trying to move up out of its BASE, but is encountering a little more resistance  .

BTH Base

 

Volume buying has been good, todays selling was quite light. I would imagine that the base offers good support. The 50sma currently at $9.60 and the Magenta line in the chart below near the  $10 area could be a low risk buy, with a stop right below.

BTH Buy 10 SMA

WTI (W & T OFFSHORE) has an interesting move too. This can go on a watchlist , since a pullback may offer an entry.

WTI

Thats it for now, a small watch list –  thanks for reading!

    Posted a comment earlier and now it’s gone. Weird. You might want to look into it, Alex. Basically, I said thanks for the charts, and was wondering about your method for scanning for stocks. Now I’m too lazy to type it all again:)

    Sorry SVEN….I do have someone looking into it. Comments used to go straight to my email and they dont anymore either. Frustrating.
    I actually have an extensive watch list in various sectors and I watch for certain bottoming/Basing/ and recovery type patterns.
    I am also willing to comment on what I see if someone is contemplating buying a stock (but now that comments are disappearing, we may have to wait for that).
    Thanks for reading …We’ll get that figured out soon, I hope!
