ShepWave Pre-Market / Intra Day Update for Monday Published
by ShepWave.com
Posted: 4/8/2012 23:47 EST

Important End of Day Update at 2:43 Published

Remember trade management is very important; it is probably more important than trade entry.
 
Lately (for the past several months anyway) we have been seeing some clear evident short term trades and have realized high profitability in these trades...but the management of these trades is WHY these trades have been profitable.
 
Some new notes have been added to today's update. This morning's entry was a good one. Use stops to lock in profits. See notes regarding whether or not it is 'safe' to leave this trade open overnight.

Intra Day Update at 10:32. NOTE: Check for updates through out the day.

As anticipated the markets did have to make another dip before going up. NOW is the time to use stops to lock in profits. By using stops I do not mean to put in an actual stop, but to watch the markets with a stop area in mind. Putting in stops can be risky; most of you have been traders for a while and know what I mean.
 
Mid term traders, note the action in Crude Oil. This is important.

Important Intra Day Update Published at 9:38 AM ET

CNBC's Cramer is calling the recent upward move in the stock market "parabolic" and that we may see an unhappy end to this run.
 
I just caution anyone from taking blanket statements about the market too seriously. For several weeks we were using the Trend channels to make trades on a consistent basis. Now that those trend channels are broken we need to be watching for the mid to longer term signals.
 
The move in Crude Oil today could be important.

Can you buy this gap down open for a short term trade?

U.S. Equity Market futures are down at this time. Dow futures are about 147 below fair value. As you know trading gap opens can be very profitable.

The usual default rule is to buy on a gap down open and sell on a gap up open...gaps tend to fill. That is unless there are some distinct chart patterns warranting the gap not to fill. See the potential mid term chart patterns we are now facing. Also note the preferred short term trade for Monday.

Also keep in mind the key levels shown in the Regular Scheduled Update for Monday Parts I and II. There are key areas we are watching in the Equity Indexes themselves as well as Crude Oil and The VIX to give more clarity as to whether or not the markets have hit a key short to mid term top;

Mid to longer term traders will want to watch any mid term signals closely.
