SWING TRADE UPDATE .....................................

These are the trades that have been presented as swing trades. The swing trade time frame, as I apply it, is to look for short term price swings in the 2-5 day time frame. An occasional swing trade, if performing well, will be held a little longer.

Most swing trades will be presented with two profit targets. In most cases, I will sell 1/2 of my position at the first profit target. Once price hits the second profit target, in most cases I will switch to an hourly chart and track the lows, trying to gain as much profit as possible before selling.

E = Entry. S = Stop. AS = Adjusted stop. PT = Price or profit target.
