XPO Logistics Long 2020
This company is fundamentally solid. The large 50% discount is appears to be a part of the profit taking cycle. Even further backing this theory, there was a large share buyback that began late 2018 and into 2019 I believe this reiterates my thoughts that profit taking will occur in the future ONLY WHEN price reaches previous levels or higher.

This company is fundamentally solid. The large 50% discount is appears to be a part of the profit taking cycle. Even further backing this theory, there was a large share buyback order registered with the S.E.C. that began late 2018 and into 2019 I believe this reiterates my thoughts that further profit taking will occur in the future ONLY ONCE the price is ABOVE 100
XPO - good potential to come down tomorrow 8/15Looking at the moving average on the daily charts, you can see that the stock is starting to trend down. MACD, StochasticRSI, and the Directional Movement indicators all agree with the movement down. The weekly chart is also showing a movement down still and has hit a ceiling on the middle bollinger band. Good opportunity to watch and get in if the stock shows a downward movement in the next day.
Reviewing a trade I called but failed to enter out of fearIve called successful trades on XPO three times now. Every time I have failed to enter. Today we look at my most recent alert on XPO and why I failed to enter the trade.
The day i generated this idea is marked on the chart. I generated the Idea originally using the daily chart. When I decide to enter I generally like to look at the smaller time frame to confirm Im getting a good entry. We look at the 30 minute time frame for buy confirmation after the breakout buy idea has been generated.
I marked the chart of how I should have seen it to buy it. However I did not do this and failed to enter the trade

pasting in an entry I wrote in my trading journal
---------------------------------
One thing I struggle with is buying something that is up 1% or a few % the day or week I am looking to buy. Lets Look at $XPO as an example.
Notice the small Blue arrow. That is the day that I originally had the idea. I wanted to buy the next day but they were weak in the morning so I did not. I did not want to buy something that was going to get rejected on the RSI(the second box corresponds with the time period I am talking about). SO I did not buy the day after I had the idea... didn’t buy the next day either... but the third day... that’s the day it broke out. Look at it. Up 2.8% today. But I didn’t buy this morning when it was up 1%. Why? Because I was scared of buying something that is already up 1%. Why? Because I don’t want to buy with it now being at that horizontal resistance line on the RSI. Why? Because Im scared of rejection and thus losing money. -----> what is the fix?????-------> Buy it and cut losses fast if it gets rejected. Simple as that. Buy before the breakout maybe. Not always. But maybe that’s the idea to have instead
Really though the best thing to do would have been to buy once it breaks the last high. Seen on the 30 minute chart above.
XPO another breakout setup - RSI -We generated two buy signals in the last week using RSI.
Now we are getting another potential buy setup when we look at the RSI. Notice the horizontal line. This is know as the "uniformity method", a term coined by Eric Muathe. If we break above that RSI line we are good to go. Notice that the MACD is also about to cross zero. This is a strong buy signal from MACD.
This is a good setup.
Please post below with questions and comments my friends
Through the eyes of MACD $XPOMACD only analysis can be very time consuming and requires focus/disipline.
this chart is me practicing. But as you can see i got a little lazy and did not touch prior price action to much.
If you have comments on the dotted trend line please comment below. Never sure about those.
