STOCK TRENDS NASDAQ WEAK BEARISH BREAKOUT TRADING STRATEGY


The trading criteria defined for the Stock Trends NASDAQ Weak Bearish Breakout are as follows:

BUY a stock when:

  • tagged with a "Weak Bearish" indicator (), and
  • weekly volume is above 500,000 shares, and volume of trading is at least twice the 13-week average volume (volume tagged as high - ), and
  • price movement on the week exceeds the comparative market index (+ sign beside the RSI), and
  • week closing price is at the week high, and
  • finally, limit the selection to stocks trading above $2 at the time of entry.

 

Note that transaction costs are factored into the cost of purchases and the net proceeds of sales at 1% in and 1% out, or 2% commission on a round trip. 

 

SELL criteria are as follows:

  • Sell Trigger #2: A Stop Loss provision is defined for each position held, setting the stop price at 20% below the highest closing price (minimum $0.50 below). If a stock is trading at or below the stop price at the end of a trading week, it is sold at the weekly closing price. Stop prices are moved up with any weekly increase in the stock's price, but, once increased, are never moved back down.
