Trade Trend Indicator

Trade Trend Indicator

The Trade Trend Indicator (indicator) has been the brain child of 23 years of trading experience rolled into a simple to understand all market setup alert system based solely on 5 high probability trade set ups with a 6th high risk. The hope is to provide something that is can assist traders in building confidence in their trades with a little assistance from the indicator.

This like any and all indicators is not a be all and end to trading, yes while back tested the indicator has produced fantastic profitable results; past performance is not a guarantee of future but which with human intervention can increase the return result exponentially.

You need to be able to chart simple candle sticks and you need to have an understanding of support and resistance areas to make sense of what you are doing in trading otherwise even this indicator won't help you.

While this may alert buy or sell / long or short entrance these are to be taken as educational points of reference and if you wish to trade you are understanding that you enter and exit at your own risk. Not many indicators will alert you to the possibility of a rogue wave spike / dump or both, this will but everything is perspective of the time frame you are on.

The indicator is designed for the 4hour time frame with trade entry on the 15min and managed on the 30min time frame. Alot can happen within these time frame but as we know not every trader can sit in front of a screen for hours at a time and this let's one trade for swings.

The set ups are simple:
1. Trend change from bearish to bullish buys are dip interim support entries.
2. Trend change from bullish to bearish sells are top interim resistance exits.
3. Blue buy is an entry position for a trade.
4. Blue long is an add position for a trade.
5. Red short is just that a short trade idea. (this is advanced and requires a manual cover target),

6. Green buy is a break out over the next candle to print above (highest risk)

All trades are based on a 5% to 10% of capital entry with no more than 40% ever in 1 trade goal is many consistent trade wins while limiting the losses and size.

Certain set ups such as longs over the Moving Averages but below the cloud can lead to strong rally returns as well as short in a bearish trend just above the Moving Averages can give prolonged selling pressure.

Pay attention to the golden dump line as it rises the closer to the candle it gets the higher the risk of the trade lacking continuation.

None of this is to be taken as investment advice but rather Edutainment and infotainment

How much is cannabis going to cost you?

Edited from thestar ~ Jack Hauen
By Osirustwits


Today October 17th the recreational use of Marijuana has been legalised. As the country becomes even more happier with the 10:17 AM/PM anticipated time for a large cloud to begin over the nation.

How much could it cost you across the country to get "lifted"?

Newfoundland

The cheapest MJ currently on the government-run cannabis website is $5.87 per gram, but it isn’t available for purchase yet. The cheapest one you can buy right now is $7.71 per gram if you buy 3.5 grams at once. Prices will range from $6 to $13 per gram, according to the Newfoundland and Labrador Liquor Corporation.

P.E.I.

The cheapest MJ currently on the government-run cannabis website is $7.83 per gram. Pre-rolled half-gram joints are $5.65 each.

Nova Scotia

There are three levels of cannabis quality in Nova Scotia, as decided by the Nova Scotia Liquor Corporation: “value” ranges from $6.33 to $8.49, “core” goes from $9.00 to $10.98 and “premium” starts at $10.99 and goes up.

New Brunswick

MJ starts at $8.99 per gram online and goes up to $15.50. Pre-rolled half-gram joints are $7.50 each.

Quebec

The government has said that grams will start at just over $5. As of early Wednesday morning, the province’s online store still hadn’t been activated.

Ontario

The cheapest gram of MJ on the Ontario Cannabis Store (OCS) is $7.50, and prices go up to $13.25 per gram. The cheapest half-gram pre-rolled joint is $10.35. Keep in mind the most you can order at one time is 30 grams, in line with the amount you’re allowed to carry under federal law. The OCS also sells more extras and goodies than any other store currently online, from oils and sprays to rolling papers to vaporizers — pick up a hemp wick for $1.95, or a $7 bottle of Orange Chronic glass cleaner.

Manitoba

Six stores have been licensed to open in the province, but retailer Delta 9 is the province’s only online non-medical retailer so far. Delta 9 sells grams online for $12. Of note: the company has partnered with the Pineapple Express delivery service and is promising same-day delivery for orders in Winnipeg.

Saskatchewan

Nothing listed for prices but I think they have always been growing and blowing that "Wheat"

Alberta

The website crashed at the stroke of midnight for several minutes before sorting users into a queue of thousands. Multiple products were already out of stock, but the cheapest MJ available was $9.24 per gram. A half-gram pre-rolled joint is $6.64. Every retailer will have to purchase its cannabis through the Alberta Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis Commission, which will sell it at an average price per gram of $8.90.

British Columbia

Grams of MJ start at $6.99, with a huge variety — more than any other online store right now. Half-gram pre-rolled joints start at $4.20. Ironically clever

Yukon

The government will run one temporary store in Whitehorse, and the online store will open Wednesday morning. They have not released a price list yet.

Northwest Territories

The government is selling through its liquor branch, which lists five MJs and nothing else available for purchase. All three of the cheapest individual grams are “coming soon,” so the least expensive legal gram of weed you can buy in the territory right now is $17.50.

Nunavut

Cannabis will only be available through Tweed, an online retailer with no brick and mortar shops in Nunavut. At this time online ordering wasn’t available on Tweed.

The caveat of this is the looming Canada post strike that is on the table for Monday Oct 22nd 2018, this could impact online prices and delivery times and costs.

Join the discussion as we trade the MJ stocks and talk prices and discounts here.

Updated just to remind you this is the short or squeeze so based on the information here shared in our chatroom our sentiment is to SHORT all MJ stocks

Laddered Puts on $UVXY

Today we are going to do a laddered put set up on the fear index tracker $UVXY.

$UVXY has just recently undergone a R/S and this trade lets us do 3 things
1. Take advantage of the price spike that should normalise
2. Take the trade for less risk than if we went long
3. Get paid a premium rather than paying the premium

The plan on this is 2 things simply IV contracts and $UVXY decays over time. We want that volatility that is what we are really trading on this. If IV is high we want to sell if IV is low we want to buy it.

Short Put Ladder Construction
Sell 1 ITM Put
Buy 1 near ATM Put
Buy 1 OTM Put
To setup the short put ladder, the options trader sells an in-the-money put, buys an at-the-money put and buys another lower strike out-of-the-money put of the same underlying security and expiration date.

Unlimited Downside, Limited Upside Profit Potential
Maximum gain is limited to the initial credit received if the stock price rallies above the upper breakeven point but large unlimited profit can be achieved should the stock price makes a dramatic move to the downside below the lower breakeven point.

The formula for calculating profit is given below:

Maximum Profit = Unlimited
Profit Achieved When Price of Underlying < Total Strike Prices of Long Puts - Strike Price of Short Put + Net Premium Received
Profit = Lower Breakeven - Price of Underlying


Strikes being $75 short put the $55 long put spread puts me at a risk of $20 between strikes x100
the long $50 says that I expect $UVXY to be more than ($2000-$500 credit) /100

In short I expect if I sell the $75 buy $55 credit spread and buy the $50 with a credit left over $UVXY will be under $35 by contract expiration date.

Another option is if we believe that $UVXY will be lower than $35 by EXP is strongly going to happen

Short Put Ladder Construction
Sell 1 ITM Put
Buy 1 nearer ATM Put
Buy 2 further OTM Puts

Same risk as the spread is $15 with nearly no credit but better chance of higher profit if it does indeed break $35 and keep going.

I don't have a crystal ball and none of this is investment advice just some trade ideas being tossed around in our chatroom to join the conversation there enter here.

What Covered Calls and Poor man's Covered Calls?

What is a covered call?

For a covered call, the call that is sold is typically out of the money (OTM). This allows for profit to be made on both the options contract and the stock if the stock price stays below the strike price of the OTM option. If you believe the stock price is going to drop, but you still want to maintain your stock position for the time being, you can sell an in the money call option (ITM). For this you will receive a higher premium on your option trade, but the stock must fall below the ITM option strike price, otherwise the buyer of your option will receive your shares if the share price is above the strike price at expiration (you lose your share position).

This is discussed in more detail in the Risk and Reward section below.

How to Create a Covered Call Trade

1.   Purchase a stock, and only buy it in lots of 100 shares. 

2.   Sell a call contract for each 100 shares of stock you own. One contract represents 100 shares of stock. If you own 500 shares of stock, you can sell up to 5 call contracts against that position. You can also sell less than 5 contracts, which means if the call options are exercised you will retain part of your stock position. In this example, if you sell 3 contracts, and the price is above the strike price at expiration, 300 of your shares will be called away, but you will still have 200 remaining. 

3.   Wait for the call to be exercised or to expire. You are making money off the premium the buyer of the option is paying you. If the premium is $0.10 per share, you make that full premium if you hold option until expiration and it is not exercised. You can buy back the option before expiry, but there is little reason to do so, and thus isn't usually part of the strategy.

Risks and Rewards of the Covered Call Options Strategy

The risk of a covered call comes from holding the stock position, which could drop. 

Your maximum loss occurs if the stock goes to zero. Therefore, you maximum loss per share is:

(Stock Entry Price - $0) + Option Premium Received

For example, if you buy a stock at $9, and receive a $0.10 option premium on your sold call, your maximum loss is $8.90 per share. The option premium reduces your maximum loss, relative to just owning the stock.The income from the option premium comes at a cost though, as it also limits your upside on the stock. 

You can only profit on the stock up to the strike price of the options contracts you sold. Therefore, your maximum profit is:

(Strike Price - Stock Entry Price) + Option Premium Received

For example, if you buy a stock at $9, receive a $0.10 option premium from selling a $9.50 strike price call, then you maintain your stock position as long as the stock price stays below $9.50 at expiration. If the stock price moves to $10, you only profit up to $9.50, so your profit is $9.50 - $9.00 + $0.10 = $0.60. 

If you sell an ITM call option, the price will need to fall below the strike price in order for you to maintain your shares. If this occurs, you will likely be facing a loss on your stock position, but you will still own your shares, and you will have received the premium to help offset the loss. 

The main goal of the covered call is to collect income via option premiums by selling calls against a stock that is already owned. Assuming the stock doesn't move above the strike price, the trader collects the premium and is allowed to maintain the stock position (which can still profit up to the strike price).

Traders need to factor in commission when trading a covered call. If commissions will erase a significant portion of the premium received, then it isn't worth while selling the option(s) and creating a covered call.

Covered call writing is typically used by investors and longer-term traders, and is rarely used by day traders.

Why not everything is going to be a short squeeze

Let's start but clarifying this not investment advice and in my more than 21 years of being involved in the market very seldom have I ever held a position over night or for that matter a short more than hours. This is a post in response to several who asked me about protecting a short going into a catalyst. To join the knowledge pool enter here 

When ever I heard a short squeeze is coming by traders who have no clue how to short I shudder. You see this all the time on free message boards, chatrooms and the worst place for this  stocktwits. Really is everything going to be a short squeeze because you happened to have bought a few hundred shares in a company and over stretched your leverage? This is akin to the shorts crying offering is coming when the company is cash rich.  Let’s be real for a minute let’s sit down and actually look at an example of why those touting short squeeze all the time with no background in shorting are for lack of a better word, clowns. The stock market is a casino not a circus you are always hedging your bet on your trade to be the house or you are just the degenerate gambler. That being said if you want to think this is a circus then let me be your ring master.

A very basic (still going to be over most heads) idea of what a covered short is not to be confused with covering your short aka closing out. This will assume you know about rolling options and trading for a credit. For this example, we will use $MU which reported earning yesterday and where I saw someone say shoirts will be squeezed. $MU is considered one of the most liquid stock tickers with over 1 billion shares and an average of nearly 73 million traded daily on average.

Now had you been living under a rock with no idea what GPU cryptocurrency mining has done to the world in the last year nor knew $MU made what is considered arguably the second best memory for GPU miners in the silicon lottery you may have decided to short this. That would be gambling to do so before the move and as such could go 1 of 2 ways slightly good or very bad. So here is what an experienced trader would have done to hedge his bets in his favour and protect his trade.

Image 1
Step 1 you must ascertain how big is the float

Step 2 you need to know the trading volume on average and on the day

Step 3 find out how much of the float is actually short

Step 4 find the cost of protection (this is where most will happen to fail)

Once you have that you then look to see the technical entry on your fundamental short. This is the traders advantage on $MU you would not have entered the ticker until it priced a new 1 minute back to back 52 week high this usually gives you a sweet pull back on any trade but more so on a stock going into an earnings report because you will have shorts who failed to do step 4 covering and running. That is it that would end the short squeeze after that you now have the sharks and the wolves entering.

Image 2

At ASCEND TRADING everyone knows the rule I have for whole dollar breakouts and as it is a secret sauce I will not share that here but if you entered at the break of the previous 52 weeks high say $61.05 you would be in the trade now short.

The trade worked in your favour and it bleed out all day long fast forward to the end of the day power hour you would look to either close the short as I like to do and did with $I or protect it.

Protection is done knowing you are now $2 ahead on the trade in the last 15mins of the day the expected move for $MU from Earning is to be 6.8% either way and most times it has only moved 50% of the expected move and if it did move outside it was by less than 1%.

Image 3

This is where the magic happens and as your ring master I am going to mesmerize you.

At the power hour price of $59.02 the expected move of 6.8% would put you in the range $4, $4.01336 to be exact. 50% of that puts you back to the risk of $2 from this point or break even on the trade. To protect you $2 profit and hold for the possibility of much more gains you would now sell the $58.50 weekly put naked for $1.79 mid price shown in RED Graph 3 (this would give you another $0.50 of profit plus the credit of $1.79 per contract) and doing so you would buy the $60.50 weekly call for $1.32 mid price (locks in that you will not lose on the trade with at least $0.50 profit) shown in GREEN graph 3 for a net credit of $0.47.

This is similar to a protective collar when you are long the stock for those have been doing this in IRA, TFSA or RRSP accounts on dividend paying stocks.

So recap to this point you are up $2.00 on your short you have now protected your short for possible gain of $0.50 more and were paid $0.47 to do so total would be $2.97 profit risk is stopped at a profit of $0.50 plus you were paid $0.47 to do so total of $0.97 profit. Now you see why on a billion share stock doing this is going to be quite favourable as you covering the spread. This is a special trade that sets up when a binary event like an ER is reporting in the middle of the week could be a case for $GIS coming up if you get that gap up.

When I trade my goal is simple to make more money than the bank pays me interest and when I short my results are life time better than 90% because I don’t take unnecessary risks or over exposure, I hedge.

EOS Mainnet is coming and so are the airdrops. How to register before June 1st

So everyone loves free things and airdrops are no exception to that. Give me something for doing very little to nothing yes please. So let's dive in with as quick break down of what is EOS and how to get that free coin.

EOS is a blockchain platform for the development of decentralized applications (dapps), similar to Ethereum in its functionality. It makes decentralised applications (dapps) development easy by providing an operating system and protocol set of services and functions that dapps can take advantage of.
The EOS ideology is to bring together the best from various smart contract technologies, into a simple to use, yet massively scalable dapp platform for everyday use empowering the future blockchain ecosystem.
The EOS vision is to create a scalable secure blockchain dapp platform that can can handle thousands of transactions per second, all while providing an accessible experience to developers, entrepreneurs and users. The aim is to provide a complete operating system for decentralized applications focused on the web by providing services like user authentication, cloud storage, and server hosting.
The EOS project is being developed by a company called Block One, led by Dan Larimer (co-founder of both Bitshares and Steemit) and Brendan Bloomer. Both provide some serious crypto experience and have been active in promoting the technology as a whole in addition to their own projects.

The EOS Mainnet is scheduled to launch on June 1, 2018 and EOS token holders must register their tokens before the launch in order to claim their official tokens. Assuming you already have a MyEtherWallet holding EOS tokens, these steps explain how to manually register EOS tokens using MyEtherWallet.com (MEW).

1 Go to MyEtherWallet.com 2 Click "Contracts" 3 Click "EOS Contribution" 4 Click "Access" 5 Go https://eos.io/instructions about halfway down choose register and generate EOS keys (make sure you write down your keys and store them safely or risk losing your tokens) 6 Enter your PUBLIC EOS key into the "key string" field in MEW (Do Not enter your private key) 7 Click "write" to register your tokens 8 Check to see if you tokens were register correctly 9 Refresh MEW page 10 Click "Contracts" 11 Click "Access" 12 Click "Keys" 13 Enter your public Ethereum address 14 Click "Read" 15 If you registered your tokens correctly your Public EOS key should appear under the field that reads "string"

Here is a list of the projects past and present that have or are planning to airdrop on the EOS ecosystem.

Which Cryptocurrencies should be on your watch list in the next few weeks?

Well it has been a month since the alerted bull run was coming and Ascend Trading  has seen some great gains but what is next? Where should we be looking to see signs of the next #LamboMoon or as we say now #FerrariSoon

Here are some intangible coins I have my eyes on. Do your own due diligence as you take your own risk this is not investment advice just infotainment.

Section 1 
The main net coins:

The following coins will be launching their main nets within the month or next. Most of these are anticipated to rival existing GEN 2 coins and show the innovation of GEN 3 coins. With many hours of discussion and tweets about these they need no further introduction.

Coin                         Launch Date
Oyster (PRL)                  May 29th
TRON (TRX)              May 31st
Nuls (NULS)                  Sometime in May
EOS (EOS)                  June 2nd
VeChain (VEN)              By end of June
High Performance
Blockchain (HPB)          By end of June
Fusion (FSN)                  By end of June
Ontology (ONT)             By end of June
Credits (CS)                  By end of June
DADI (DADI)                By end of June
Aeternity (AE)                By end of June

Section 2
Consensus 2018:

Ripio Credit Network (RCN)
Ripio had a partnership integration with both Decentraland (MANA) and Bancor (BNT), some nice positive awareness for Ripio and for Decentraland from Silicon Valley. This should be a meaningful partnerships with each other, unlike a certain "coin and pornhub".

CIVIC & THEKEY
Both CIVIC and THEKEY focus on blockchain to solve the identity problem. Civic has made big gains prior and both of the their charts and market caps are looking similar. The identity discussion can bring increased awareness to the pair of projects.

AION
Aion has a low blockchain market cap of under half a billion. Thy got a nod from PBC as a project to watch and if they can get a buzz could easily increase in market cap and worth. The discussion on blockchain interoperability and its importance is going to be a needed catalyst.

PROPY (PRO) Rentberry (BERRY)
Have a lot going for them real property backing these assets, low market caps with BERRY being 1/2 of PRO. The buzz is the wildcard can they pick up steam if so they could move fast.

Where is bitcoin ( #BTC ) and the entire Cryptocurrency market heading?

Well is the bear market over? Are we ready to go back to all time highs? Is now time to buy?

I have received several questions and I hope to answer the many questions but the above ones require a crystal ball. I will look at these 2 questions and how I weigh the risk vs reward.

What is a crypto currency Initial Coin Offering (ICO) ?

How do you evaluate an ICO for potential and risk?

Hope this short video helps clear the air on what I do with my trades. Please do your own research and weigh the risks accordingly.

A Crypto Currency play on Wall Street

With how hot cryptocurrency has been and blockchain in general why not look at a trade that could combine the best of both worlds.

Looking at a possible options combination on $AMD as part of the crypto currency play tied in with their processing chip partnership expected profits. If you would like get more information on trading ideas in crypto to Stocks to options feel free to join the discussion http://www.ascendtrading.net?aff=osirustwits

Here are the trade ideas

AMD LONG CALL has an average move 12% during earnings with current price at time of report $11.79 means buying the $11 strike could net you a 25% move profit.

An AMD BULL CALL SPREAD buying the $11 for $1.73 and selling either the $13 strike for $0.83 or $14 strike for $0.55 gets you into this trade for $0.90 and $1.18 respectfully. Keeping in mind that you are currently $0.79 in the money that means only buying $0.11 and $0.39 of extrinsic value to have a profit potential of a $2 or $3 spread. I like those odds on the reduced capital as you have long the 66 Delta.

AMD COVERED CALL Buying shares of AMD at $11.79 and selling the $12.00 call for $1.22 would result in a call-away-return of 11.9% if the stock trades above the strike following earnings. This also would provides downside protection to $10.58 and positive Theta

SHORT STRANGLE expecting the move to not go past the 12% avg means that we could throw an other trade over top and short strangle selling the $14 Call strike and the $10 Put Strike for a total of  $1.08 meaning break even would be $15.08 tot he upside and $8.92 to the downside.

LIZARD also could be thrown on top of the bull call spread by selling short the $13 call for $0.83 and sell the $11 put for $0.86 then to reduce the infinite upside risk buying the $14 strike call for $0.57 put the LIZARD in play for a credit of $1.12.

Why I like the combo of the BULL CALL SPREAD and the LIZARD is:

If AMD goes down after EARNINGS the break even on the BCS is $11.90 so you would loose under that and the break even on the  LIZARD would be $9.88 so $10.89 would roughly wash both trades as no gain or loss..

If AMD goes up as I expect since I have capped the upside risk by taking in more than the spread $1.12 vs $1 (-$13C +$14C)  I would still make $0.12 profit on the LIZARD while I would make full spread on the BCS  ~$1.10 profit totalling  $1.22 but anything less than full spread would keep the full $1.12 from the LIZARD 

Best Scenario AMD is pegged at $12.99 at option expiry from the BCS I would get full value of the $11 call being $1.99 in the money no value on the short call and thus also keep full value on the LIZARD for a profit of $3.11 you can see why I like the combo of the BCS + LIZARD in this case.

Today we closed the $DDD options play took the profit off the table this let us focus on the play of the day the $KBSF halt short.


$KBSF a former runner approaching resistance levels and moving on what I consider not the strongest of volume. We had wanted a short at the break of $7 for top tick but she was not cooperating so we hit it on the VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Pricing) break.

This was not the strongest of the shorts as we shorting into a weakness thus the trade was not a repeat affair just a scalp.

Earnings Report play for the week $DDD

This was a spread option trade.

In order to create a spread you are buying one option strike and selling the other. The difference between them is the spread. It reduces risk as it reduces the amount of capital in the trade.

The last few months I have been immersed in the crytpo-verse with mining, trading, running masternodes and buying ICOs. I will update those going forward through this site and youtube as we go into the 3rd month of 2018. Took a short break from the intangible world to get short on stock as a help for a member with their entry and exits on shorts. $ZSAN was the target. Here is the trade Osirustwits™ AT (@Osirustwits) tweeted at 7:13 AM - 27 Feb 2018 :

What is a short squeeze?

Been a while since I posted and many have asked about what is a short squeeze so I decided to do a blog entry to make it easier to explain how these work.

What is a short squeeze?

A short squeeze occurs when a stock that is shorted has its price start to rise quickly, this make shorts close their position or face larger loses.  This is because traders who short also known as shorters only profit if the stock price drops.

Now a shorter's losses are the short squeezer's gains, because the short squeezer is able to force the price to rise, buying into the stock and selling as it peaks higher and higher which drives the cover price up. Straightforward and simple but why doesn't it always work?

A short squeeze is not without risk it requires all buyers to sell on the ask or higher this will drive the price up as shorts clamber to cover.

Why this fails is because shorts will try to dive the bid with sells to try to scare longs into selling. If longs bail early by dumping the bid it craters the stock and shorts get out of a trap. Shorts can only borrow so many shares of a company that is the short interest percent once there are no more borrows they can no longer sell the bid. These crowded shorts happen often in low float stocks with an already higher than normal short float.

Supply and demand shortage is what fuels this.

What to look for as a short squeeze candidate?

Short interest sometimes the higher the better. It is the number of available shares that have been borrowed and sold short. I look for over 10%

Days to cover this is a key factor because if the volume is low this will raise the price parabolic so the higher the number of days the better.

Stocks that have a known history of spikes these are usually stocks shorts have been squeezed on before.

Recent news or a promotion. News could be anything from a company press release, a SEC filing within the last week to 2 max or even another company in the sector. A current promotion of the company whether paid or uncompensated. While news has a stronger weight a promotion can also move the stock parabolic.

Price point of the short. This was exemplified when an entire chat went short Resolute Energy Corporation ($REN) at $16. That was the intraday support thus many closed their short and flipped long to create a squeeze on that group which topped out at $23 over several days and now the stock is over $32 time of posting 100% price increase.

That was a successful squeeze.

REN Pump Confirmed via Northland Securities

Not going to waste your time or mine going into a big I knew this told you so just a matter of time speech. Just going to be short and simple REN Resolute Energy Corporation ticker $REN has been confirmed as a pump by at least Northland Securities who issued a price target of $35 on the high only thing bulls see and $12 on the low.

 Good luck trading this long or short get protection

My Game Plan (MGP) for shorting $REN Resolute Energy Corporation

Resolute Energy Corporation (REN)

Why the short position is a no brainer?

First off let me start by saying had I known the stock would move as much as it did up I would have taken shares long first to use that profit in the short back down. I call this a #TarzanTrade such as with $CORI

 I expected an up move but not a 30% jump otherwise I would have been long first.
Look it up on Twitter I coined the phrase #TarzanTrade and pretty much only one who has used it for trading both directions around a pivot. Usually up first then down

Before I start to get into this trade and in the manner of full transparency I am currently short $REN as a swing, I have been shorting it daily from last week as a daytrade due to this ticker being up on no real strength other than just a bad short entry and the squeeze. https://twitter.com/Osirustwits/status/769168758854209537

this is not a typical post about the company or the ticker. This post is about how I am now trading it because I see too many who have gone forward and followed others or a GURU which is something I never claim to be and are now drowning or worse covered for 4 digit loses. Reading 1 guy has blown up 97% of his account hurts. I was once in those shoes but I have evolved and adapted as a trader now. Hopefully this will help you too.

5 rules to shorting a stock

1) Are you shorting the chart or shorting the company. 2 different trades know which you are doing don't confuse them

2) Know your risk a tech short should never be more than 10% your capital to start never more than 33% ever

3) Never let your risk move over your reward that ratio is key for being profitable

4) Does the company have any options if so yes watch them if not watch volume.

5) Never short before the first red day as the next day gives you a pop to short but also gives you a clue for the trend change.

6) Stick to your plan of risk reward and put the emotions away money has no feelings and no loyalties.

On Sept 2nd 2016 I entered a swing short on the fundamentals and the over extension of the chart I announced I would do this the day prior. https://twitter.com/Osirustwits/status/771464873716744192

I had no borrows the 2 days prior thus no trade (hindsight that was a blessing).

Now brings the reason for this post too many don't understand what the term protection and having a stop in mind are.

The stop is to limit the amount of loss you can take if a trade is going in the wrong direction. Too many are just adding and not taking size back off in the drop in fact they are adding at the bottom of the drop and not the top. In fact an entire chart is rumoured to have shorted the $15 break and the price action and this post would lend the strength to that http://stocktwits.com/message/61397722 

  (but what do I know "Elitedaytrader" AKA Luke Murray by some said I am a twit the squeeze was already done.)

This mindset is bad very very bad as each time you add to your short or cover you are borrowing or repaying your borrow on shares. How do you do this? You exchange money for shares yes you give those bulls more cash aka ammo. This is the opposite side of what I call the short swap on a break out where you have the long position and are selling/lending to shorts. Thus each time this dips they have enough cash to buy up and squeeze shorts, mainly those shorting the bottom of the chart, who in turn cover at a higher price fuelling the move back up as other longs join in and it breaks upward. This pump move started under $6 to be conservative so you can see the avg price for these early longs is far under the stock price.

So how do you protect yourself against this type of move and still short this manipulated ticker? All that goes up must come back down theory is strong on @Stocktwits. You first off don't short where support is short way above at resistance, cover into support and re-short under support once it cracks with a stop breaking back above support. This is what I have been doing as a daytrade it works very well with very high success. If you remember 1st time I broke that rule was on $KBIO https://twitter.com/Osirustwits/status/667065707503337472

 also a crowded short. Second time was on my short of $IO Ion Geophysical also a manipulated push took a $1400 or so loss on that before I shorted it back for profit down. I was not taking a strike 3 on breaking my rules.

I bought option September 17th 2016 $16 and $17 calls 10 and 20. Each call is a lot of 100  so using these calls is how i am basing my risk. The price goes up in my short I avg up and cover down into a drop to get the lower shares off and my avg up. Worst case my short moves against me by $3 based on my avg now I call my options and get out for $17 plus fees. This is called getting protection those calls were $1.25, $1.70 and $1.85-2.00 when the price jumped but the options didn't move I shorted the pop covering into the drop. I was underwater on my short so I had to get my head back in profit or closer to the surface and i covered as I was over my account comfort. Some see that as scraping I see that as repositioning due to a squeeze without panicing. I think the algos on the options are smarter and faster than I am and yes I know stocks and options don't move in unison. All profit from my shorts on the day goes to buying protection and if this moves high enough I will swing puts from that profit too.

When I said this trade was based on fundamentals now I was serious about how much I put into a fundamental short technical shorts are never with this much effort, size or planning. this doesn't even include the DD on the company nor have I or will I touch upon that at all in this post. Once you have added that yourself see if you agree it is a no brainer short but where and when do you enter? That is the key.

I just hope anyone who is short has done the proper homework and has done a due diligence of more than just it is up on nonsense, as yes we all know this but the market cares not for what we think. Algos have no emotions and no morals neither do insiders who dump into a man made rally.

None of this is an indication to buy sell or anything else it was just how I am trading my money with my risk and reward. trade safe.
