This trade idea came to my yesterday while reviewing Investor's Business Daily Stocks on the Move and today was a follow through day

I have had some loses this month and has wiped out my gains for the year. So that being said I am hesitant in jumping back in with the current market condition. The overall market has been down for most of the month and I am currently only in Boston Scientific.

This stock has had a buy gap up and in candlestick lingo the window has been closed. It is now finding buyers again

Check out the setup: In The Trading Cockpit with the O'Neil Disciples: Strategies that Made Us 18,000% in the Stock Market

I am placing a market order tomorrow to guarantee fulfillment. The current stock price is $39.02.

2019-08-21
I got filled at $39.43 this morning

Stop Loss -8% at $35.94
This stop is -$3.09 and this is a wider stop than I normally use. The stop is based on the chart where that level is -2% from the consolidation before the gap at $36.67

Upside Target +20% at $46.83
This will hit some resistance at $43 as it approaches the previous high. That would be about a 10% gain, but I suspect that it would go higher because of the recent trading. After it hits 43 I expect a 6 - 8 week pause forming a cup and handle pattern

I closed out the position today and I was very wrong. It move against me and put me underwater. I had been on vacation and had not watched as closely as I should have. I did capture the dividend which was a reason to hold on this

I widened my stop a little lower based on the chart. It has broken lower and I threw in the towel

I got filled at $34.24

$39.49 + 2.25 dividend - 34.24 = -$3 / $37.24 = -8%

2019-07-20

I closed out of this position on Tuesday 07/16, because it hit my -5% stop on Monday's close. This opened down another 5% at the opening. I had thought it might bounce and it didn't it headed lower.

I checked the news and the main product failed a test. In fact it would cause harm using as intended. There are lawsuits filed for false representations. I could not sell fast enough

I normally avoid the medical field, because of this volatility. I was unfamiliar with the company and relied on the market action to enter the trade. Expensive tuition and lesson learned

I got filled at 33.45

39.39 - 33.45 = -5.94 / 39.39 = -15%

This trade idea came to me a while ago. I had bought this and was one day from my 7 Day Time Stop. It was on Day 5 the indicators I use looked like it was going to turn downward. I was already down I sold.

-5% stop: $39.78
+20% Gain: $50.24

I kept that on my watch list and then I bought back in on 2019-07-01. This is a risky position, because earnings is 2 weeks away

I had closed out this position on 2019-08-01 at a larger loss than my stop. I was up about 3%, but then the day before I was at about break even. Then the morning the stock bounced up and after lunch it crashed.

I got filled at 27.74

30.40 - 27.74 = -$2.66 / 30.40 = -8.75%

This loss caused me to reduce my overall exposure to the market and reevaluate my use of metal stops. I then took a break from the market to adjust my approach and scale back in to the market more cautiously

This trade idea came to me by running a scan from TD Ameritrade on Wednesday. This company interred me and I set a buy order the next day

Volume: >100,000sh
MACD Histogram: Negative to Positive
