Intraday Trading With Hatch #3


Gapper's Eye utilizes our original unique stock scanner, Break Scan, and sophisticated chart software, CQG. With nominal fee, the Break Scan is available to our members.  

The Kamikaze Gap Play was introduced to the U.S. traders in the August 2005 issue of Active Trader Magazine.

 

The Nasdaq opened with a big upside gap. The index is obviously in the long zone.

But, it is facing the resistance line, and this makes trading harder.

This gap is a bit too large, but the chart is a good pattern to trade.

This one looks OK, too.

 

You can call it a day. The stock already moved its average daily range. 

 

So is this one. It has traveled its average daily range.

 Up $2175 if you traded 500 shares each.



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.

 


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.   

 


Utilizing Hatch3 to pick stocks with good weekly patterns.

The Nasdaq formed a doji bar.

 

It has finished right at the resistance level.

 

Have a nice weekend !
