Continue Reading -->IWM Case Study: How the Red Dog Reversal Works, Long and Short
Brought to You By Power Plays The Red Dog Reversal (RDR) is a trading technique I use to catch countertrend moves in an oversold or overbought stock. It’s been one of my bread-and-butter strategies for years. And my community just had the chance to use it both long and short with IWM — within the span of a few days. As many traders know, IWM recently went on a tear when small caps look over leadership from large-cap tech. But IWM has been quite volatile, allowing us to play it from both sides. And today I’ll show you how you could have spotted a nice shorting/selling opportunity — followed by a long. First, we’ll go over the Red Dog Reversal Sell Rules . Here are the 4 steps to a Red Dog Reversal Sell: Stock is up for multiple days Stock goes above prior day’s high Stock trades back below through prior day’s high, which is where the sell/short triggers The stop is set at the current intraday high Here’s how it played out with IWM: IWM rose for 5 days in a row into 7/16 On 7/16, hit a high of $224.86 On 7/17, IWM went above $224.86 and then below for a sell/short at that level Stop is set at the new 7/17 high of $226.84 Since the short entry is $224.86 with a $226.84 stop, we are looking at risk of $1.78 per share. And on Monday July 22, IWM hit a low of $215.38. (more on this important level below) I was happy about the decline 0ff the highs because I was short the IWM ETF plus IWM calls. Those positions were getting hairy when IWM was ripping, but it resulted in a nice profit. And on Friday, July 19 — I flipped it around. I went home long IWM calls and short IWM puts (shorting puts benefits from rising prices) — just in time for Monday’s rebound. Incidentally, that $215.38 level mentioned above was a Red Dog Reversal buy. Here are the Rules for a Red Dog Reversal Buy: Stock is down for multiple days Stock goes below prior day’s low Stock trades back up through prior day’s low, which triggers the entry The stop is set at the current intraday low Here is how it played out on the chart: IWM fell 3 days in a row through 7/19 On 7/19, IWM hit a low of $215.85 On 7/19, IWM broke below $215.85 and reclaimed it to trigger long Stop is set at the new 7/22 low of $215.38 With a long entry at $215.85 and a stop at $215.38, the trade would have risk of 47 cents per share. IWM soon hit $220+, which was an impressive move for trade with 47 cents of risk. While not every Red Dog Reversal trade works out, it’s certainly exciting when they do. And in this case, it showed how effective it can be both long and short when you are opportunistic. Positions Disclosure as of 2024-07-22 at 3.25.55 PM

Continue Reading -->ARM is the semi to watch today
Brought to You By Power Plays SPX futures are +30 after a correction from 5669 down to 5497 last week. If the bears want to keep active control, they probably need to reject price this week into the 5560-5585 area. Not all sectors are created equal as the money rotates every few weeks. Now let’s dig into some individual names: ARM is a stronger semi so see how it reacts today. We’ll see if it gets and stays above $166 to see $171ish. AMZN stopped out most remaining active longs when it failed to hold the $197.60 area. Record Prime results were sold and it hit a low of $180.11 before reclaiming $181.45 on Friday. I’d think $186-$188 gets rejected if this tries to bounce pre-earnings. PLTR acted well when most names didn’t. It hit a high of $29.83. I’m still long some, and it needs to hold $27.80. GOOGL reports tomorrow after the close. It looks similar to NFLX as it pulled in off the highs but it’s not worth an options play yet. GOOGL’s recent high is $191ish. The reaction will be important for how we approach these types of names. TSLA also reports tomorrow. It hit a high of $271 and a low of $233 in the last few sessions after a nice move from $191-$198. It’s hard to tell what’s next as it wedges. $245 is active support, then $233. If this pushes, $258 is active resistance. It’s flattish this morning.
