[11:44 am] Mitch K: for those of you who have
not been trading a long time, what we are
seeing this 2 week period near holidays is
typical. very slow, like trading after
market hours
[12:40 pm] Mitch K: i have some swing trades
for you
[12:40 pm] Mitch K: LONGS: FIRE, FII, EMR,
WHR, HA, KBH, TM
[12:41 pm] Mitch K: SHORTS; EQY, NXY, GPS,
BECN, PENN, CTL, PNK, CRS, PMCS, CVC, CVD,
WRI
[12:41 pm] Mitch K: these are not day trades
but swing trades with holding times of a few
days to maybe 2 weeks
[12:42 pm] Mitch K: I’ll try to post most
days swing trades.These have short holding
times, as some of you already know, I am not
a buy and hold type of trader
[12:43 pm] Mitch K: The general rule I think
you should have is in this market, you are
“jabbing” like a boxer. What I try to do is
look for stocks that give a 2-3-4 day
consecutive run and those are the highest
probability of taking that profit on the
initial run whether long or short
[12:44 pm] Mitch K: I will make a habit of
posting these mid-session when the market is
slow like this
[12:44 pm] Mitch K: not sure what you mean
mhaus[12:44 pm] Mitch K: you are not trying
to make home runs or knock-out punches, just
small profits like 7-15% profits
[12:44 pm] Mitch K: I will make a habit of
posting these mid-session when the market is
slow like this
[12:44 pm] Mitch K: not sure what you mean
mhaus[12:45 pm] Mitch K: Just try to be
flexible mentally
[12:47 pm] Mitch K: Through time, I will
explain how I think you should approach these
but in the meantime, just try approach them
with just a few days to maybe 3-4 days is
about right
[12:59 pm] Brent : have a good night, see you
tomorrow morning
[12:59 pm] Ed : have a great evening
traders
[01:01 pm] Mitch K: see you guys tomorrow.
going to be another slow day and I will be
here for only first couple of hours

should pick up if not next week, starting on
1/9 then
[12:26 pm] rusty : RTN chart worth watching
based on daily
[12:27 pm] tonyliu : Thx Joey.
[12:27 pm] joeytsa : no prob tony…lots of
people take this week off
[12:28 pm] lightning : tony, but even on
more normal days, more than half the activity
is in the first hour, and about 1/4 of the
activity is in the second hour. The rest of
the day is good for only about 1/4 of the
ideas.
[12:29 pm] tonyliu : PAY short in the
morning hit me hard
[12:29 pm] joeytsa : mid-morning is great
for assessing any swing positions, possibly
adding to day trades you are in as long as
they are going in your direction etc[12:31
pm] michael : rusty, RAM dropped a good bit
but I wasn’t watching it
[12:31 pm] tonyliu : Oh I see. But I can’t
trade many in the first hour. Only 1 or 2. So
I am sitting all day
[12:32 pm] rusty : yeah, at these overbought
levels anything can happen
[12:32 pm] joeytsa : then you will have to
be extra patient
[12:32 pm] joeytsa : just checking some
charts, 1 to keep on the radar for tomorrow

daytrading..not a recommendation right
now..just something to watch maybe
tomorrow

[12:36 pm] rusty : funny how CNBC can’t find
one Gold bull when they had 100 on everyday

[12:36 pm] rusty : sounds like it might be
time to buy soon
[12:36 pm] joeytsa : but don’t force a trade
just to have one
[12:37 pm] joeytsa : they are probably
thinking the dollar will stay strong, which
should crush gold?
[12:37 pm] rusty : all they are thinking is
the chart
[12:37 pm] rusty : lol[12:38 pm] rusty :
some of those guys had a 2000+ price

[12:39 pm] rusty : and some of the silver
fanatics even worse
[12:39 pm] joeytsa : long-term possibly,
short-term it should hit a bit of a bottom
[12:39 pm] rusty : agree
[12:39 pm] joeytsa : we mentioned that
yesterday…silver needs the economy
[12:40 pm] rusty : everyone laughed at me
when I was shorting SLV in the 40’s
