both swing and intraday trading.

High - Low Bands Gap Play Watch
This strategy can be applied effectively by using the
Swing Scan. As the name implies, this system scan stocks for
swing trading. Of course, these stocks are suitable for intraday
trading, too. Don't just concentrate on stocks. Be sure to follow
the index.
The Nasdaq gapped down on the open, but reversed and closed higher.
Let me stress that it is not still a good place to open new long positions
unless the index makes a big upside gap.
Swing Scan Watch
Each figure shows the size of
the gap, the order of moving averages, the new high or new low in the past five
days. The trigger indicates the buying and selling pressure. We do not hold
overnight positions more than five days. A long position will be closed when
the stock gaps down. (Sometimes, the position is liquidated on the second gap-down.)
The opposite rules applies for closing short positions.
The Nasdaq gapped down on the open. Wait for more up bars before opening new
long positions.
This gap is too big.
This gap is also too big.
The entry point was three days ago when the stock formed a down bar.
Anyway, no stocks looked good enough
for swing trading today.
Existing open position
None.
