Overworked as I’ve become, I really appreciate it when you readers alert me to some solid opportunities. Today’s chart of the day comes courtesy of InvestorsLive (see MarketKid, that’s how you link when you feature someone else’s idea on your blog!)

Rather expensive, fundamentally sound, tied to commodity prices and slow moving for TIM to play, nonetheless, I consider all surging stocks as potential shorts…just gotta be extra careful on this one as its managed to take out 9-month resistance, then again, it has gone parabolic so we could see some conso0lidation soon…

    Dang, shoulda coulda woulda bought around 25. How the heck do you identify charts like UNS BEFORE they make a move like that? Other than filling the early March gap, it is not like it had a clear breakout or anything to begin the move.

    I was looking at the day view on UNS, which for some reason hasn’t updated in StrategyDesk.

    On a side note I hope everyone at TDAmeritrade contracts genital warts.

    I didn’t see it roll over at 33.49 which is right around my target short (which didn’t fire thanks to the soon to be wart covered peeps @ TDA).

    Always a hater… 2 trades 32.80 to 32.56 = 240-14 = 225.00
    32.49 to 31.95 = 540-14=526.00

  • Zykosis

    i’m not hating, it’s just why stop at 80cent profit on that setup. i mean, if you’re taking advantage of that setup, shouldnt you hold longer? it’s not like there was a vicious bounce or anything where you got out…

    and if it’s able to break that open, isnt the downward move going to be substantially larger ?

    its not a setup for a multi $ fall, if it did tank, it’d only be $1-2, its a solid profit to take

    you guys think i’m arguing, that’s even funnier. you’re too used to elitetrader or something. :)
    (can’t there be a discussion about a trade? whether the person made money or not)
    but we’re talking about high probablity setups that have LARGE downside. does this setup have large downside? if so, why not stay in?

    For me it’s not about a “vicious” bounce. I set a price as to where I would like to cover or where I “think” resistance might be.

    Gains r only good when they are locked in. In hindsight, sure I could have held to 31.6, but as the 5 day chart for this stock shows, it moves rather quickly.

    And in closing, it is not a bad thing to play the middle of a trade. Greed kills, and I know first hand, I started trading at the school of hard knocks.

    TY Tim… I am still giving u credit for bringing up this chart, even u didn’t think it was ready for the picking.
