Overview -
The economic calendar is light this week. The stocks previously have shown a trend of being affected a lot more by the news, compared to the economic data. Today, US-China are having talks regarding the trade. The volatility should come from the outcome of the trade discussion. We will not stay in the market for that long. We will only trade the predictable open and call it day.
INTRADAY PLAN -
1. If the stock rallies to 295 area and we see selling pressure. We instantly short the stock till 284. We take a partial out at 284, then observe the price action behavior. We can either sell rest of the position or, trail the stop loss to 273.
2. If the stock consolidates at the open, at 290. We wait for confirmation of selling strength and go short till 285 area. We sell all our position there.
3. If the stock drops to 284 right at the open, we wait to see which side is stronger. If the sellers are strong, we go short till 273. But if we buyers are strong we wait and do nothing. We let the price run higher and then come back. If buyers really are strong, then we should start seeing strength at 285-286 area or higher. Then we can go long.
