9/21 – ETF Trading – No Trades Today

Good morning. Our stock trading entry signals did not trigger for EWJ, XSD, and USD on Friday. As such, we did not enter the trades.

For this morning, futures are suggesting a stock market pull-back. Markets still remain overbought by our measures. But perhaps with a few days of selling, the markets will present us with the triggers to enter some new long etf trades. Patience, dear trader!

All of the signals and strategies I use are found in the book by Larry Connors: High Probability ETF Trading. The 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.

9/18 – ETF Trading – EWJ, XSD, USD

Put EWJ back on your watch list today, and take an initial position should it close lower today.

iShares MSCI Japan Index Fund (EWJ) seeks to provide investment results that correspond to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of publicly traded securities in the aggregate in the Japanese market, as measured by the MSCI Japan Index (the Index).

We’ll also take a look at the semiconductor etf sector today. Put XSD on your watch list today and consider taking an opening position should it close lower today. For a leveraged play, consider USD. Trading volumes on these low, so trade carefully.

XSD seeks to replicate as closely as possible, before expenses, the performance of an index derived from the Semiconductor segment of a U.S. total market composite index. The fund uses a passive management strategy designed to track the total return performance of the S&P Semiconductor Select Industry index.

ProShares Ultra Semiconductors (USD) seeks daily investment results, before fees and expenses, that correspond to twice (200%) the daily performance of the Dow Jones U.S. Semiconductors Index.

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

Join me every day as I offer new etf trading ideas for you to follow. Have a great weekend!
