Hit List 9-22-2010

September 22, 2010 By Jeff White Filed Under: Hit List

The Hit List is a look at our current swing trading positions. Stocks we are already in have “triggered”, while those we are considering for plays have not triggered. Click post title to view print-friendly link.

No changes

Open Position Notes:

SPG pulled back again today, and although it did happen on light volume, it gave up the breakout zone by falling back beneath it.  This is a breakout failure for now, which isn’t encouraging, although because of the light volume today I am willing to give this one another day or two to see if it can stabilize.  If not, I’ll then look to tighten my stop and reduce my risk on the trade.  It could be that today’s drop back down beneath $96 is a shakeout move, so I’m willing to wait and see.

CREE gave up more ground today, which is again nice to see.  This one has been unable to reclaim former support (turned resistance), and is drifting lower at this point.  I’d like to see one of these downside spikes really gain some momentum in the stock, but for now I’m being patient as it moves slowly in my direction.

MCO closed

Open Position Notes:

SPG attempted to move higher today, but in the end just couldn’t make it happen.  Today’s dip in the stock was still able to hold the breakout zone of $96 from the flag pattern I’m trading this one from, so that’s encouraging.  I would like to see that area hold on a closing basis, if tested, so the next couple of days could prove important.  For Wednesday, I’ll leave my current stop as-is.

CREE headed lower again today, which is encouraging for this short sale.  It has been showing relative weakness of late, and to see it declining here after failing to reclaim former broken support adds to the bearish appearance of this chart.  I’m sticking with my existing trade parameters for now while waiting for more follow through to occur before making any adjustments.

Closed Positions:

MCO was acting quite well Monday, but with the stock having gotten quite close to my Target, last night I felt it necessary to tighten my stop aggressively in order to preserve profits.  Today that tightened stop was hit, taking me out for a modest but quick 3% gain.  I’ll keep an eye on this one in case it sets up again.

SPG & CREE triggered, MCO stop tightened, MHK removed (pattern negated & no trigger)

Open Position Notes:

MCO ran higher today as it moved up and out of its recent consolidation zone for a solid gain.  This one has only 1 target, and the stock got within 2 cents of that level before backing off slightly this afternoon.  As a result, I’ve tightened my stop aggressively tonight in order to lock in a good winner should this one happen to turn lower from here.  If it is able to push a little higher tomorrow, my target will be reached and I’ll make an exit there.

SPG triggered a buy today as it broke out from its descending channel at $96, and I liked how the stock advanced nicely on increased and strong volume.  This is a great start, so I’m pleased with the initial action.  I’ll be watching for follow through in the days ahead, and will look for further progress or a shift of behavior before making any adjustments to my stop.

CREE triggered a short sale today as it undercut $50.60, and initially it fell quickly.  The stock did recover from its worst levels, but still finished negative on a very positive day for the broader market.  I’m encouraged by that relative weakness, and will stick with my existing trade parameters for tomorrow while waiting for follow through to arrive.

MCO triggered, SPG & CREE & MHK added

Open Position Notes:

MCO triggered a buy on Friday as it gapped slightly through my intended entry.  Despite the initial strength, no follow through was found as the volume for Friday’s session was quite light.  Nonetheless, the stock finished not far from the breakout zone, so I’ll stay with my existing trade parameters heading into Monday as a little more time may be needed to see if this one’s ready to go.

CYH stopped

Open Position Notes:

No open positions, 100% cash.

Closed Positions:

CYH turned higher today to clear short-term resistance and trigger my stop, taking me out of the trade for a 3.4% loss.  Getting stopped out of trades isn’t ever fun, but given that this was a pattern failure, I’d rather it happen quickly than delay the process.  This stock no longer looks short-term bearish, so I’ll stay away until a new pattern surfaces.

CYH triggered

Open Position Notes:

CYH triggered a short sale today as it undercut a rising trend line, but after some initial weakness, it reclaimed the trend line.  The stock did validate my stop level as it challenged short-term resistance, but held beneath that level, which is encouraging.  I’d like to see some downside follow through soon, but for tomorrow will stick with my existing trade levels.
