Price action stock trades

FDO exited @ break even , stock not acting right for four days in a row since entry {image}

This is a strong shorting candidate given the recently bearish action on the monthly. The 2nd and 4th quarters of 2012 were quite bearish as well, while the 3rd was at best neutral. My plan for trading stocks like these, whether up or down, is to find setups like these on the longer term charts, i.e., monthly and quarterly, bet half on the break and if/when it retraces against the candle I am trading off of, I watch the weekly and daily candles for a good spot to bet my second half. If it does not retrace then I only go half. If it doesn't break right away, but retraces instead, then I will wait for an entry signal within the main candle, but on the weekly and daily charts. That's entry.

FDO should go down to at least $55, though I think $50 is a good bet.

Hi Johnny , excellent approach ...thanks for sharing...Looks like FDO offering good setup on the weekly if it doesn't gap down too much.

Hi @decades,

would you share your results with these trades? I'm about to start something very similar, but with smaller TF's.

Tnx
I want money!

the method actually made money .. . most shorts were losers , most longs made money...not surprising since we've been in a bull market...makes me question why any shorts were taken at all ... had i done that the method would have been extremely profitable ...the cutting of winners at first resistance bothered me though ...and now for something completely different ...see my next thread

Can we discuss Indian stock market here?
A trade should be based on an assumption based on facts

If you mean a general discussion of the indian stock market , the answer is no. if you want to discuss price action trading methods for any market that's fine.

Would love to see a short only PA stock trader, hahaha
But really PA ? Why not just look at volume order board, probably get better action from that.
All posts are my personal opinion
