12/8 – ETF Trading – EWC, USO, UCO

Good morning. Yesterday, USO (and UCO) moved lower and you took your initial position in the trade. EWC moved higher and we did not take that trade.

Should USO (or UCO) move lower today, take a second position in the trade. Otherwise, our exit signals are triggered when the etf price is greater than it’s MA(5), or – for a potentially larger gain – when the RSI(2) is greater than 70. All trades are at the market close. Please trade responsibly!

Join me everyday to follow these etf trading signals. All of the signals and strategies I use for etf trading are found in the book by Larry Connors: High Probability ETF Trading. His etf trading strategies have only a few rules and you’ll be able to back-test and apply the strategies to the next trading day. With easy to follow trading strategies, clear explanations, and years of tested results, there is no better place to start finding new trading edges than in High Probability ETF Trading. Get your copy today and be ready for the next trading session.

11/4 – ETF Trading – Special Focus on EWC

As I mentioned in my previous post, we took a trading loss on EWC, eventhough we followed our etf trading strategies and signals. As much as we would like every trade to be profitable, real trading, even high probability trading, can result in losses.

The goal in trading is to adopt a proven trading system, and then to follow that system, consistently and systematically. Overtime, your trading results will be profitable.

Trading results for EWC for the past 2 months are posted here. As you can see, we had a trading success rate of 75% !
