On the market:
The market ignored some very positive Q2 reports and obsessed with the credit-crunch woes last week and suffered a mini-meltdown. The huge losses across the board have significantly damaged the fundamental technicals underlying the multi-month uptrend. The extent and speed of the decline, especially the failed stabilization/rebound attempt on last Friday, clearly suggest that the jittery and crisis may lie deeper than most people expected. On the other hand, it is still premature to say that the uptrend is now convincingly reversed. As all major indices now oversold and sit just above their key support levels, I fully expect a technical rebound next week with a likely retest of their MA50 levels:
NASDAQ: strong support around 2530. Key resistance: EMA50=2618, around 2630
SP500: strong support around 1450. Key resistance: EMA50=1514, also around 1490.
DOW: strong support around 12845. Key resistance: EMA50=13529, also around 13700.
The overall trading strategy for August should be: short on top when the major indices and stocks rebound back to the key resistance levels. For very short-time frame trading, long at the bottoms as long as the indices stay above the aforementioned key support levels. However, for any long trades, be careful with the position sizes and be ready to take quick profits.
The bottom line: for the first time in months, there are solid signals pointing to a start of a bearish reversal of the uptrend. As always the case during the early stage of a trend reversal, one should start to establish short swing positions, but do so with patience and fully expecting of some dramatic rebounds.

Swing calls -- July 22, 2007
On the market:
Last week turned out to be one of the most dramatic week in recent months, after notching new highs, all major indices registered a losing week. The overall reactions to the first week of peak Q2 reports are mildly negative. Earning reports will continue to pour in next week, feathering key companies in the oil sector, housing sector and tech titans such as TXN and AAPL. If market continues to react negatively, the major indices may be set to test key supports such as MA50. However, until the major indices broke their MA50, the trend is still up. One sector that demands particular attention is the banking sector, whose index just produced a death cross (see Trade Mike's chart and comments). All companies in this sector are now perfect short-on-top candidates. If the financial heavy weights continue their rapid descend, the possibility of new market highs will be significantly diminished.
1. AAPL: will report Q2 in Wed AH, also, Tuesday's AT&T Q2 report may also reveal iPhone sale situation and therefore impact AAPL price. Keep eye on key supports around 115, EMA50=122.7 and 127.5 if it drops following the report. Look at GOOG for possible AH play on the long side.
2. BIDU: S2 on top only if it spikes towards key resistance near 200 and 210 use very tight stop, don't go long unless it spikes towards EMA50 currently near 163.5.
3. BRCM: L1 on bottom whenever it spikes towards EMA10.
4. COST: L1 on bottom if it spikes towards EMA50 currently around 58.3.
5. ELN: L1 on bottom if it spikes towards 19.4, stop just below 18.9, IT=22.
6. HD: L1 on bottom if it spikes towards 38, stop just below 37.8, IT=40.5
7. ILMN: will report Q2 on Wed. Keep eye on key supports around 35.5,37, EMA50=38.4, and prepare to trade from the long side if it drops quick in AH, however, if it breaks solidly above 42.3, consider buying the break-out!
8. LRCX: L1 if it drops to 55-56 due to market correction, stop just below 55.
9. MRVL: L1 if it spikes down towards 18/18.5, with CS<18.5, IDS around 17.8, IT=21.
10. PFCB: currently long at 35.21, will report earning around Wed noon. Consider exit half position if it spikes towards 36 on Monday and close all position if it spikes towards 37. intra-day stop just below 34.7 and closing stop just below 35.15.
11. RACK: reports on Thursday AH, long if it breaks 14.2, and watch for key support around 11.2.
12. SBUX: L1 if it spikes towards 26.8, IDS just below 25.8 and CS just below 25.5.
13. X: reports Q2 on Tuesday, it is poised to break down based on the chart, S1 if it spikes towards 116 with a tight stop?
14. AMZN: will report on Tues AH. watch for key supports around 60, 63.7, and 67.5 (EMA50). Long at 60 or 63.7 may be considered if it spikes down in the first few minutes following the report,but tight stop, small position size and quick profit-booking are needed.
15. DHI: will report on Thursday, it is approaching a historic support around 18.5. It made new 1-yr low last week, I suspect that the Q2 report will turn it around.
The following banking/brokers are poised to fall further, however, they are all not far away from key support levels (often strong long term supports), therefore, for swing trading, the best is to wait for them to bounce back towards EMA50, which will offer setups with good risk/reward ratios. On the other hand, they can be day-traded from the short side based on 10 day 30 min charts.
1. BAC: S2, entry zone=49.1-50.25, stop just above 51, IT around 47.
2. BSC: S1, entry zone=139-145.2 (EMA50), stop just above 146, IT around 127.
3. GS: S2 if it spikes towards it EMA50 (currently 220.6) stop just above 221, IT around 198.
4. LEH: S2 if it spikes towards its EMA50 (currently at 74.4) with a stop just above 75.
6. MER: S2, entry zone=83.8(EMA10)-86.9(EMA50), stop just above 87, IT=78.
7. MS: S2 if it spikes towards 70 or 73.5 use tight stops, IT around 65.

Swing trade calls -- July 15, 2007
On the market:
The persistent advance of NASDAQ finally drove both DOW and SP500 to the new highs last week. On any charts from any angles, the break-out is solid, though could be more convincing had the overall volumes been higher. Speak of the volumes, I have a gut feeling that the short-covering played a significant part in the dramatic bull run on last Thursday and follow-through on Friday. The relatively light volumes tell me:
1. Big boys are not adding to their long positions at this level, nor taking profits right now. They are probably waiting until they see a clear signal of Q2 report/Q3 outlook.
2. The shorts are yet to capitulate, which means that the market may have more room to run up.
All major indices and a lot of stocks are in extremely overbought region, which means swing-long at the current levels may not be very profitable. Buy-the-dip remains the best strategy.
The coming week is likely to set the tone for the earning season, if the market reacts very positively, I think there will be at least another 3-6 weeks of bull run (into mid or late August). Technically speaking, it is hard to conceive that the overall trend would reverse even if the Q reports from many key companies come in lower than expected.
Short plays should be avoided as a general rule.
1. AMD: L2, entry zone=14.81-15.2, stop just below 14.4, IT=16.
2. ANF: S1 if it spikes towards 79, stop just above 79.5, IT=71.
3. BBY: L2, entry zone=45-46.7, IT=50, clear bullish divergence on the weekly chart.
4. BIDU: L1 if it spikes towards 195 or 200 use very tight stops.
5. BRCM: L1 if it spikes towards 31.1, stop just below 31, IT=33.5.
6. GOOG: Consider L1 around 515 if it pulls back on earning in AH, stop below 500.
7. LRCX: watch for the 55 resistance, a close above 55 with volume could drive it to a new high.
8. MRVL: L1, entry zone 17.75-18.1, stop just below 17.7, IT around 19.5
9. NUE: S1 if it spikes towards 67 with a stop just above it, IT=60.
10. RIMM: L1 if it spikes towards 217, stop just below 215.
11. SHLD: S1 if it spikes towards 162, stop just above 162.5, IT=153.
12. SONS: S1, entry zone8.4-8.68, stop just above 8.7, IT=8
13. URBN: S1 if it spikes towards 23, CS>23, IT=20?
14. DRIV: S1 if it spikes towards 50, stop just above, IT around 46.

Swing trade calls -- July 8, 2007
On the market:
The NASDAQ had a low volume break-out week while both SP500 and DOW are approach their early June high for the 3rd time. Bears would be in a new round of despair if SP and DOW join NASDAQ to break to the new high in the coming days, and that may be determined by the early tone of the Q2 report season. If the market reverses right now, bears may be looking at a triple top formation, however, unless the major indices do break their early-June low, bulls can continue enjoy their party.
On the overall trading strategy:
The safest is buy-the-dip, shorts may only apply to those whose Q reports greeted by negative reactions AND have subsequently been rebounding as the rising water lifting all the ships.
1. ADBE: S2 on top, entry zone=42.4-43, stop just above 43.3, IT=39.
2. ADI: speculative S3 on top if it spikes towards 40, stop just above 41.1, IT=36.5.
3. BBY: S1 on top, entry zone=49.4-50, stop just above 50, IT=47.
4. ILMN: L1 if it breaks 42, CS<42 with a bearish candle,IDS
5. LRCX: S1 if it breaks and closes below 50.6, stop around 52, IT=47.5.
6. NUE: S1 on top if it spikes towards 64 with a stop just above, IT=59/60.
7. WLT: CTT watch as it approaches 32.5.

Swing trade calls -- July 1, 2007
On the market:
There are plenty of signals that the bulls are losing strength, however, the major indices need to break its June low before bears can claim any upper hands. I still feel that the kick-off of Q2 report season will have a decisive impact on the intermediate term trend of major indices. Until that happens, play counter-trend trading near key S/R levels will have the best RSK/RWD ratio.
1. AAPL: Monday's market reaction to its iPhone IPO weekend may signal its near-term trend, go long if it breaks 126/127.61 with a stop just below 124/125, and consider short it it breaks/closes below 119/115, with IT around 104. MA50=113.4.
2. ADBE: S1, entry zone=41-42(MA50), stop just above 42, IT=37.5.
3. BBY: S1, entry zone=47.3-47.8, stop just above 48, or 48.4-48.9(EMA200), stop just above 49., IT=45.5.
4. BOBJ: S2, entry zone=39.7-40.8, stop just above 41, TI=EMA200=37,
5. COH: S1, entry zone=48.7-50, stop just above 50, or if it breaks/closes below 46, IT=42.
6. LRCX: S1 when it breaks/closes below 50.6 with a bearish candle, stop just above 51, IT=EMA200=49.3, may consider S1 on top if it spikes towards 55, with a stop just above 55.
7. MRVL: L1, entry zone=17.2-18, stop just below 17, IT=19.5.
8. NUE: S1, entry zone=60-62, stop just above 62, IT=53.
9. SNDA: L1, entry zone=28.6-30.1, stop just below 27.5,
10. X: S3 (possibly in early trend reversal stage, patient and scaled entry), entry zone=113-117.5, stop just above 118, IT=100

Swing trade calls -- June 16, 2007
On the market:
Looks like my previous predication of a top is falling apart. The strength and extent of the rebound exceeds a little bit of my expectation, and I must say that I am amazed to see how the market ignores the bad aspects while intensively focuses on the good aspects of any inflation report. However, I find it very hard to find the reasons that the inflation will stop rising, on the contrary, I think the non-core inflation, which the Wall Street has completely ignored so far, will gradually drive up the overall inflation, and that is only a matter of time. I still think the the cross over of 5% of the 10 year bond yield is a very significant event. The market will most likely consolidate at the current level until the Q2 report season kicks in in 3 weeks, which may dictate the next meaningful move of the major indices.
On what small players should do right now:
If you are not a trend decider, you must either follow the trend or just sit out. Don't fight the trend or you will be punished!
The bottom line is that the easy money on the long side has been made. Going long near the current high does not have a good risk/reward ratio, buying the dip use MA50 as stop reference is probably the safest way to approach the market right now.
1. AAPL: S1, entry zone=124-127, stop just above 127.7, IT=110.
2. ADBE: S1, entry zone=43.3-44.5, stop just above 45, IT=41.
3. AKAM: S2, entry zone=51-53, stop just above 53, IT=46.5
4. COH: S1, entry zone=51-52, stop just above 52, IT=47.
5. ERTS: S1, entry zone=51-53, stop just above 53, IT=49.
6. ILMN: L1, entry zone=36.3-38, stop just below 35.5, IT=42.
7. NUE: S1, entry zone=64.5-67, stop just above 67.5, IT=60.
8. NVDA: L1, entry zone=37-39, stop just below 37. IT=41
9. RACK: L1, entry zone=12.1-12.6, stop just below 12, IT=13.5. OR when it breaks and closes above 14.3, IT=16.8.
10. SNDA: L1, entry zone=27-27.6, stop just below 27, IT=30.6
12. SNDK: L1, entry zone=44-45.5, stop just below 44, IT=50.

Another dip before new high?
My answer to that question is NO for at least 3 months, why? because the 10 yr bond yield surged across the key 5% and closed at 5.1% today. Do I expect a rebound as the major indices approaching their key support zone near EMA50? very much so and I am looking for some buys. The bottom line is that the overall uptrend is yet to be reversed, but the precipitous drop of the major indices this week could signal the beginning of the end of the 10 month long strong up trend.
I will not be eager to establish swing shorts at this stage. I will be very patient for entering the long positions and will also cut the hold period for the long positions.
1. ADBE: L2, entry zone=41-42.2, stop just below 40.6, IT=43.2
2. BIDU: L2, entry zone=127-134, stop just below 127, IT=140.
3. CHAP: S3 on top, entry zone=70.5-71.2, stop just above 72, IT=65.
4. COH: S3 on top, entry zone=48.8-49.4, IDS just above 50, CS just above 49.5.
5. CRM: L2, entry zone=42.2-43.7, stop just below 42, IT=46.5
6. ESRX: L2 on bottom if it spikes towards 93.7, IDS just below 92, CS when closes below 93.7 with a bearish candle, IT=100.
7. LRCX: L2 if it spikes towards 49, stop just below 48.7, IT=52.
8. NUE: Quick L2 flip if it spikes to 60 or 63 with a very tight stop.
9. RACK: L1, entry zone=12.3-12.7, IT=13.6, stop around 12.
10. SINA: L1 when it spikes towards 36.5, IDS just below 36, CS just below EMA50 with a bearish candle.
11. SNDA: L2, entry zone=25.4-26, IT=28, stop just below 25.
12. SONS: L1 if it spikes towards 8.1, stop just below 8, IT=9.
13. TIF: Quick L2 flip if it spikes towards 47.7, IDS just below 47, IT=51
14. WLT: Quick L1 flip if it spikes towards 28, stop just below 27.5.
15. ARO: consider quick L2 flip if it spikes towards EMA50=43.5 or 42.5 use very tight stops.
16. USU: L2, entry zone 20.4-21.1, stop just below 20, IT=23
17. SGR: L1,if it spikes towards 36, use EMA50 as CS stop reference, IT=40.

Swing trade calls -- June 2, 2007
On the market:
I sense a fundamental change in the collective market mentality in the past 2-3 weeks: the bullish attitude has been solidified to such that the action (buy-on-dip) starts to firmly reflect the attitude. It is also quite clear that there is still quite a long way to go before the bullishness reach a frantic/crazy level, therefore, as a whole, swing short should be avoided. The market is unmistakably bullish, but with the interest rates continue to climb (the 10 yr yield is poised to break the key 5% level), more explosive movement to the upside may not occur before some kind of consolidations. The less-than-impressive up volumes in recent days indicate that big boys are not eager to commit more nor to take profit at this stage. So what do we do for swing trades? Avoid swing short and be patient with swing longs--both entry and exit.
1. NM: L1, entry zone=10.3-10.6, CS=bearish close below EMA10, IDS=just below 10.
2. OI: L1, entry zone=31.8-33.6, CS=very bearish close below EMA10, IDS=just below 31.7.
3. PCU: L1, entry zone=88-92.5, stop just below 87.
4. SGR: L1, entry zone=39.4-40.8, stop when it closes below EMA10 with a bearish candle.
5. USU: L2, entry zone=20.7-21.3, stop when it closes below EMA50 with a bearish candle, IT=24.5.
6. ADBE: L1, entry zone=43-44.2, stop when it closes below EMA50 with a bearish candle or below 42.
6. BIDU: L1, entry zone=134-136, cs=very bearish close below 134, IDS=129.
7. CHRW: L1, entry zone=52-53, IDS=just below 50, CS=bearish close below EMA50, IT=57.
8. CRM: L1, entry zone=44.3-46.5, CS=bearish close below EMA50, IT=50.
9. GOOG: L1, entry zone=486-492 OR when it breaks 515.
10. RACK: L1, entry zone=11.5-12.1, stop just below 11.5, IT=EMA50=13.6, next target around 16.
10. SINA: L1, entry zone=38-38.8, stop if it closes below EMA10 with a bearish candle.
11. TXN: L1, entry zone=34.5-35.5, IT=37, CS just below 34.5, IDS just below EMA10.

Swing calls -- May 22, 2007
Got some time to kill tonight, so here are some swing trade calls.
On the market: the bulls are just unstoppable, the bears, well, they are trying hard--just saw a link from the Kirk Report that the short interests are continuing to climb, and you have to wonder if these stubborn and early bears will see their grave before seeing the light of their pay day. Shorting is becoming very dangerous, even if you follow the charts of individual stocks, the river keeps rising, and that makes harder to sink any boats. On the other hand, long positions initiated at this stage may not have a decent risk/reward ratio, therefore, pick your own poison, or maybe the best is just sit tight and watch the show :P
1. ADI: S1, entry zone=38-39.5, stop just above 40.2, IT=34.
2. AFFX: S1, entry zone=25.1-26.8, stop just above 27 or EMA50, IT=23
3. ANN, S1, entry zone=37-37.3, stop just above EMA50, IT=35.
5. COH: S2, entry zone=49.5-51, stop just above 51, IT=EMA200 around 44.
6. MEDx: L1, entry zone=15.75-16.1, stop just below 15.7,
7. OCR: S1, entry zone=38.9-41, stop just above EMA200
8. SNDA: L2, entry zone=27.5-29, stop just below 27.
9. VRTX: L1, entry zone=30-31 (EMA50), stop just below 30, IT=36,
10. WFMI: S1, entry zone=41-EMA50, stop just above EMA50 or 44.
11. WSM: S1, entry zone=34.7-35.35, stop just above that, IT=33.

Weekly Swing Trading Calls -- May 12, 2007
I am going to try a completely different approach: instead of focusing on very short time frame, I will try to develop a strategy for swing trade, meaning that the weekly chart will become the center of the trading analysis, and holding time frame will change from 1-3 days to 1-4 weeks.
On the major indices:
It is hard to be a bear in this market, but it might be even harder to be a full-charging bull at this stage. The bottom line is that this is a up-trending market, and until if is proven otherwise, buy-on-dip is arguably the most sound approach. The ideal buy zone would be the NASDAQ from 2498 (EMA50) to 2530 and SP500 from 1450 to 1470.
1. AFFX: S1, entry zone=26-26.8-28.6, stop just above 28.8, IT=23.
2. AMD: L1, entry zone=13-14, or when it closes above 15, IT=17.5.
3. COH: S1, entry zone=48-51, stop if it closes above 51,IT=44.
4. MOT: L1, entry zone=17.65-18.02, stop just below 17.3, IT=20
5. MU: L1, entry zone=11.75-12.02, stop just below 11, IT=14
6. NVDA: L1, entry zone=32.1-33.5, IT=38
7. SHLD: S1, entry zone=179-181, stop just above 183.5, IT=168
8. URBN: S1, entry zone=25.5-26.5, stop just above 26.7, IT=23
9. WSM: S2, entry zone=34.9-35.8, stop just above 36, IT=30.

Swing calls -- May 9, 2007
I am settling down here in LA. Have not traded stocks since late March, which is the longest no-trading period since I started trading in 2001, kind of weird :) and the market has been even more weird during this period of time, as I have seen a lot more bearish signs than bullish ones every day in my life here. I admit that I did not expect it rising like this, especially NASDAQ. Bulls are in clear control here, but the party is probably not out of control yet, we shall see how long the good time will last...
Have a little bit of time to kill tonight, so I am going to look some charts, and try to make some swing trade calls (holding period 3 days-3 weeks) primarily based on the weekly charts, let's see how they turn out to be.
1. ADBE: S2, entry 42-43, stop just above 44, target 37-38.8 (EMA200),
2. AFFX: S1, entry zone=26.8-28.8, stop just above 29, target=20.5-23,
3. COH: S1, entry zone=50-52, stop just above 54, target=43.5-46,
4. SHLD: S1, entry zone=180-185, stop just above 190, target=168-171
Damn, how come I don't have any long calls? Will take a another look this weekend if I get time.
Best to all!

Daily Calls -- Friday, March 16, 2007
The overall volumes dropped significantly today as both bears and bulls slowed down to catch up their breath and position for tomorrow's quadruple option expiration day. Unlike others, I doubt tomorrow will be a very wild trading session, except for the first 30 min or so. I think bulls and bears are entering a "draw" stage and neither party is going to back down much. The material news that could change the deadlock won't come till next week at the earliest. It is probably a good time to take a little break.
1. AAPL: if the volume is light like today, CTT between 88/89 and 90.4 use tight stops.
2. ICE: S1 on top if it spikes towards 133/136 use tight stops, EMA50=134.8.
3. ARO: reported Q1 in AH, traded mostly between 38.8 and 39.74. Key S/R: EMA50=36.1, 37, 38.69 (day close), 39.35 (recently made 52-wk high).
4. SONS: DT-S1 on top if it spikes towards 7.8 with a stop just above.

Daily Calls -- Thur March 15, 2007
For a moment, the market looked like a playground for the bears, where bulls were running for their lives, but then the bulls turned back and chased the surprised bears all the way up till the close. Even though the major indices made intra-day lows that was below the previous lows, bulls' ferocious comeback marked the test a smashing success. As the result, I expect that the major indices will be range bound between their EMA200 and EMA50. Bulls will have a bit more time to make their case, but I doubt bears have enough patience to sit tight and listen up.
1. AAPL: DT-CTT between 88/89 and 93 use tight stops. bias on the long side.
2. BIDU: S1 on top if it spikes towards 102, with a stop just above 103, EMA50=98.2
3. BOBJ: S1 on top if it spikes towards EMA50=36.8 with a stop just above 37, IT=EMA200=35.1.
4. CHAP: Speculative S3 on top with a stop just above 52.5, IT=EMA50=48.7.
5. ICE: DT-S2 on top if it spikes towards EMA50=135/138 use very tight stops.
6. MU: bull divergences continue to develop, either L2 or buy calls.
7. TIF: it is topping out, may consider buying puts here.
8. URBN: it is topping out, may consider buying puts here.

Daily Calls -- Weds March 16, 2007
Well, turns out that bears found the catalyst first and bulls were looking for their broken teeth everywhere. Tomorrow will be crucial for both bears and bulls as the major indices are poised to test the recent low. A close below those lows could triger even bigger sell-off in the days to follow, a successful test of those lows, on the other hand, will definitely buy bulls some time to regroup.
1. AAPL: DT-L2 on bottom with a stop just below 87.4, IT-90.
2. ICE: Either S1 on top use EMA50=135.2 as stop reference or when it breaks 127, IT=123.
3. SNDK: L1 on bottom if it spikes towards 39 with a stop just below 38.8, IT=42.
4. SONS: DT-CTT between 6.8 and 7.3 use tight stops, don't trade the mid range.
5. Most of the stocks on my list are the candidates for the short-on-top setups if they spikes towards the high ends of today's ranges.

Daily Calls -- March 13, Tue, 2007
The market continues rebound on declining volume. Bulls should be happy since no one is really motivated to sell, bears can take comfort on the very light volume. Looks like everyone is waiting for some kind of catalyst or signs, conviction is probably in short supply on the Wall Street right now.
1. AAPL: CTT between 89/89.4 and 93, don't trade the mid-range.
2. AKAM: speculative S2 on top, entry zone 53 (EMA50)-54.5, stop just above 54.6. Be a bit patient, better wait for intra-day reversal signal near the key R levels before opening any position.
3. SONS: DT-S1 on top if it spikes towards 7.8 with a stop just above.
4. COH, ICE: refer to the weekly calls.
