8/13/2018 Stocks continue to go sideways. I’m getting ready to buy BABA and short QQQ.

Category1 0 Minutes

Hi all!  Nothing too exciting has happened in the last week so this week’s discussion will be short. 

I still like Facebook (FB) for the long term hold (1 year +).

As for BABA, I’m getting ready to buy it for the week before earnings since it seems to go up the week before earnings every time.

I also plan to short QQQ if we retest the 182.5 – 183 level with a stop loss about 3 dollars above and a profit exit 9-10 dollars below my entry.

Good luck trading!

Hi, I’m Nathan and I’m currently a Sophomore at Boston University majoring in Finance and minoring in Piano Performance. I’ve always found the financial markets fascinating so I decided to start this blog to share my experiences with you. So far, I’ve only been trading stocks for about a year, but I plan to continue trading for a long time. Outside of school and trading stocks, I enjoy teaching and playing piano, fishing, watching anime, and teaching/playing "Go," an ancient Chinese strategic board game. This blog will be dedicated to sharing my trading experience, what I learned from the books I’ve read, and commentary on the FAANG stocks (Facebook, Apple, Amazon, Netflix, Google) along with the major indexes. I will also have resources that explain my take on risk management, options trading, popular indicators, psychology, and of course, entertaining stories. I hope to write a book in the near future!

  1. The funny thing about the current stock slide is that all Turkey has to do is let the imprisoned minister go free and Trump will largely let up on their President. That will set the lira to slowly rebounding and there will be one less reason fro Wall Street to freak. Of course, they could always find another reason to indulge their failure set.
