ETF Trading – AGG, EWT, EWC, GLD

AGG moved higher yesterday, and you took your gains at the market close!

EWT retreated yesterday. We’ll patiently wait for our exit signal in order to take our gains.

Among my “watch list” suggestions yesterday, EWC and GLD turned out to be the most promising. Perhaps you took your first long position in these at the market close.

All of these trades are based on the strategies found in the book by Larry Connors: High Probability ETF Trading.

ETF Trading – EWT, AGG

EWT moved higher on Friday, but just 2 cents short of it’s MA(5). We’ll wait for our exit signal to trigger to take our gains.

AGG moved lower on Friday, providing an opportunity to add to our position. Perhaps you entered the second long position. Should it close lower still, you can enter a third position.

Other ETFs to put on your watch list today include the following:

• EWJ
• EWH
• EWC
• XLE
• GLD

Consider long positions in these should they move lower today.

These trades are based on the strategies found in the book by Larry Connors: High Probability ETF Trading.
