NEXT WEEK'S COVERED CALL CANDIDATES: NE, CLF, AMD, WLL, OASHere are my candidates for covered calls next week. Right now, they're based solely on ROC metrics, the key being to get at least a 10% ROC if the shares are called away at the short call strike. Additionally, the focus is on sub 10.00 debit plays; underlyings of higher dollar value are generally more amenable to other strategies. After looking at the charts, as well as doing some due diligence on the companies, I'll cull the herd ... . $NE (O&G): Buy shares at 6.21; sell the Sept 30th 6.5 call; 5.85 db; $65 max profit (11% ROC). $CLF (Mining): Buy shares at 6.09; sell the Sept 30th 6.5 call; 5.75 db; $75 max profit (13% ROC). $AMD (Semiconductor): Buy shares at 7.62; sell the Sept 30th 8 call; 7.21 db; $79 max profit (11% ROC). $WLL (O&G): Buy shares at 8.04; sell the Sept 30th 8.5 call; 7.36 db; $114 max profit (15.5% ROC). $OAS (O&G): Buy shares at 10.27; sell the Sept 30th 11 call; 9.84 db; $116 max profit (11.8% ROC).

Swing Trading strategy !! (A micro view on swing investing)Through out my time swing trading i have found that there are some desecrate tools and information i must look at in each equity before i make my final decision, certain criteria like Short interest , days to short , SQZMOM indicator along with a sweet chart that channels up. 1. it all starts at finviz where i search up stocks that fall under the lower priced Nasdaq equities, this is also the time i start to look for some nice setups on the chart. On the chart i mainly look for equities that are Channelling up. 2. i have filtered out the equities that don't have nice setups often charts that break the channel pattern, after this is done i start to look at the days to short on the Nasdaq short interest website. This is essential because if there was a big move down and a short share float of more than 20% it could mean that the stock is about to rebound 5-20%. it also makes the game much easier when you can now how many days those shorts have until they have to cover. 3. Once ive gone a little bit into the fundamentals and short interest i like to then look at that chart again, The indicator SQZMOM on trade view is one of my last type of analysis i do on the equity before i make a decision. As i have shown in the chart if there are 2 green momentum bars on the indicator it signals a buy entry , and once the green momentum bars start to fade it signals a Sell alert. 4. Usually i take profits at 5-10% as i have a stop loss at -5%., remember the key is to grow your account and scale it up so it might start slow. for example most people start of with a $1000 account so your first trades should be making $50 of profit as you scale it up Remember when you come into swing trading with a plan and prepared it becomes much easier to be successful in trading the equity. Its a marathon not a sprint

CLF - Falling to a trendline support, then reversalCLF was in a long term strong bear channel that broke out to the upside on a climax in late July and is now in the process of pulling back to retest the trendline. The test will come at around 14.50. A couple of trendlines support that price and the bear channel will fall right into it. There is such strong selling that I think the best the bulls will get after the test is a broad trading range (between 16.50 and 14.50). 14.50 is a good buy zone once we see a nice bar/ candlestick reversal
