VDSI - a good EP for year 2014

VDSI, which gained almost 300% in year 2014. The initial EP on 04/24 is so powerful, which leads such a massive gain.

Big Losses in year 2014

Summary: all these big losses are failed breakout or anticipation of breakout. My problem is to set the loss too wide, or cancel the initial loss to move the loss lower. I cut the loss almost at the low of the wave.
Lesson: only risk the amount of breakout bar. Set the stop at the low of breakout bar. Do not move stop!

These were good candidates at the close of Wednesday (11-26). Nearly all these stocks did not have follow through on this black Friday (half session). The actual action was up in the early morning, then went down afterwards and close at low. The airline, retail stocks were up. The oil, gold, solar stocks were down sharply due to the OPEC announcement. The oil price plunged around 10%.

Finding Continuation Triangles And Wedges With Telechart (zz)

http://forums.worden.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=26559


The chart is created by 4 things...

1) The custom indicator (h*1.01) - this represents a point 1% higher than today's high
2) The custom indicator  (l*.99) - this represents a point 1% lower than today's low
3) A 10 day linear regression line of #2
4) A 10 day linear regression line of #3

Now you can sort for the dragon which is a very easy process.  First, I sort my watchlist by the 10 day linear regression of the high blue line looking for stocks that have a sort value of 0.10 or less.  Then I space bar down the list looking for candidates which are very easy to spot.



The dragon candlestick pattern PCF
C > O AND C - O < (H - L) / 2 AND (AVGH3.1 - AVGL3.1) / (MAXH3.1 - MINL3.1) > .8 AND C > MAXH3.1

if you want more consolidation days, just change the 3 in the formula with whatever number of days you want

The Fishhook Setup by Scot1and

http://educsos.blogspot.com/2014/09/the-fishhook-set-up.html

I see this strategy works quite well recently. Scot1and looks for the low priced stock (I believe <$5) with prior negelect, then suddenly one day with a big breakout. The strategy is to trade the upside momentum continuation after a few days pullback (within 5 days after the breakout). The entry is prior to the close on  the very first up day. The stock should close at HOD or close to HOD on the up day. Usually the stock should gap up the next day. This is a short term trade. I find out that stock can go up till 12pm next day then fade away. So it is important to sell into strength to take profit.

I think recently the stock UTHR also qualified for this strategy. The entry should be on 08Sep then sell next day. Even though UTHR is a high priced stock, it has the same behavior.

Vehicle identification with the initial thrust is important.
