Steckler's Star Studded Stock Picks

[Adam]

Adam, as the calls get closer to expiration, they'll start moving in lockstep percentage-wise with the stock's move. Watch for when that happens and at that point, you might want to sell them. Also, if JLG weakens you might want to lock in the profit.

Thank you, Will do. I think I'm gonna have an order in for the morning. If it does the same as it did this morning I'll take my profits. It's a small position so to try to be greedy will definately cost me. 20-30% profit will due.

Blow's away estimates.....LOL....musta been something I ate at lunch that caused by concern......oh well....money is money....just didn't make as nearly what i should have....cest la vie

What a rocket! Up $9 in the pre-market . . . but you know, there will be many who will sell their shares this morning, taking the profits while they have them. I'd expect NTES to pull back to perhaps even $80 this morning, before rising again around 11 a.m EST. In other words, you'll have an opportunity to enter again.

I really like this one! Have you got anymore like it?

>>>I really like this one! Have you got anymore like it?<<<<

LOL.....I wish. NTES phenomenal performance this morning.....regret having lightened my position by 80%. Sold the rest this morning......will look to reenter on a pullback next week.

Trying to figure out what is wrong with MRVL....interested in taking a position at 62 today, but after a sweet eps report this hasn't done a thing

GRMN probably good for another leg up soon....but Robb thinks that candle a couple days ago is bearish....so not so sure.

BRCM.....great little trader.....buy in the 44.50 area and sell a point + higher ....

AAPL a short?

Stalled for the second day below the 50DMA. A cross down through the 20-day EMA will be the tell.

There's a rising wedge with a target around 64 if the support line gets taken out. Using a buy stop a tick or two above the 50DMA is a R/R of almost 4:1.

Re: OATS

Never crossed yesterday's high so there was no Cooper buy today. Monday's trigger is a tick or two above today's high; call it 17.65.

Cooper 1-2-3-4 candidats for next week

WIRE
CELL - caveat emptor - this is double its 200DMA.


Cooper candidate are stocks that have a high RS rank (95 or greater) and make a three-day pullback, either three consecutive lower lows or a combination of lower lows and inside days. Enter long on Day 4, 1 - 2 ticks above the Day-3 high.

The trade can be worked one additional day (lower low or inside day on Day 4, enter long on Day 5 one - two ticks above the Day-4 high). If it doesn't pop on Day 5, abandon the trade.

Bow tie candidates for next week

HOT
HD
MRBK
K
LIZ
CHZ
CPB
SMX
CYH
TNE
IYK
HEW

1. The MAs shift from proper downtrend order (10-SMA < 20-EMA < 30-EMA) to proper uptrend order (10-SMA > 20-EMA > 30-EMA). What you're looking for is for the MAs to converge and then spread out again, giving the appearance of a bow tie.

2. Today's low must be less than yesterday's low.

3. Tomorrow, place a buy order 1 - 2 ticks above today's high good for tomorrow.

4. If not filled, continue to work the order above the prior day's high good for the next trading day until either filled or the stock trades below its 20-day EMA.

5. If filled, place a protective stop below the lowest bar in the setup.

Dave, I had WIRE on my list last week. I don’t like the intraday chart on it. Looking at the 60 min I see the wedge up followed by the slight gap down. Notice the retest of the gap followed by failure. I was stalking it for a day trade though and it did not push. My STO indicator had the pop but price did not confirm as churning Maybe next week but for now I’ve cleared it from my list.

Notice STO could not pop the 80 band

Maybe it will work a few ticks above HOD!!

Float &lt; 7 million

No ERG minimum this run.

SILC - pulled back on rapidly decreasing volume. Float is a whopping 2.1 million.

GHDX - holding on the 20-day EMA.

IOO - symmetrical triangle.

[DSteckler]

A few more to watch

ALKS - breaking out of a bull flag.

CRESY - high tight flag.

DLB - nearing the top of its trading range.

FDG - symmetrical triangle but daily indicators are near overbought.

LTBG - nearing the top of a rectangular base. Very low ADX (12.21), suggesting a significant move will take place.

LSI - rising right triangle.

NTCT - skimming the 20-day EMA for weeks now.

Love It!

Dave,
I just keep on loving it!--your watch list, that is. (I probably could survive without McDonalds). Thanks for sharing.

[DSteckler]

Just a few more

NURO - hugging its 20-day EMA. Tremendous estimates and ERG = 252.

OMN - hugging its 20-day EMA.

PBR - symmetrical triangle.

SEPR - loose and wide but worth watching.

SIRF - sweet looking chart; Volume Flow Indicator went bullish on Friday.

SMSC - held the 50DMA. Daily stochastics turning higher and RSI bottomed at 44.50, which is bullish. ADX has been under 15 for the past couple of weeks and it closed just above 15 on Friday.

TQNT - lowest ADX I've seen on any stock in a long time (9.56). This one is going to move hard, it's just a matter of which direction. Has been trading in a rectangular base since early December. Tremendous estimates for the next two quarters.

ULTI - broke out on Friday after hugging its 20-day EMA. A pullback would be a gift.

[DSteckler]

Morning watch

MDR - extremely tight range the past 4 trading days and volume has dried up significantly.

WFR - above average volume and no price advance last week suggests this one may be ripe for shorting. Support looks to be the 20-day EMA; using 33.50 as a buy stop gives a R/R of almost 6:1.

[DSteckler]

ENMC breaking out

Great volume for the opening few minutes.
