Plenty Of 30-Minute Gap
Plays
High - Low Bands: Ouch !
Gapper's Eye utilizes the original macro program designed by
DayTradenet.com
for the CQG chart system.
This program shows
the support and resistance lines as well as the Quatro Setup Zone.
The Break Scan System is provided as one of the
DayTradenet members
services.
The Kamikaze Gap Play
was introduced to the U.S. traders in the
August 2005 issue of Active Trader Magazine.
At The Opening
30-Minute Gap Play
This intraday trading strategy can be used regardless of the
trend.
This is not a tradable pattern.
30-Minute Magic Cross Gap Play
This is a daytrading strategy utilizing the Swing
Scan. Our goal is to take one bar worth of profit
on the 30-minute chart. Just by using the Swing Scan, you can play
both swing and intraday trading.
The Breakscan Pro comes with the 30-minute Magic Cross.
No trade because the issue already made a big gap.
High - Low Bands Gap Play Watch
This strategy can be applied effectively by using the
Swing Scan. As the name implies, this system scan stocks for
swing trading. Of course, these stocks are suitable for intraday
trading, too. Don't just concentrate on stocks. Be sure to follow
the index.
The Nasdaq opened higher. It is still directionless.
Swing Scan Watch
Too many consecutive down bars. No trade.
No trade. Because of the doji-bar, the stock may change its direction.
No trade. The issue had an up-bar yesterday.
Each figure shows the size of
the gap, the order of moving averages, the new high or new low in the past five
days. The trigger indicates the buying and selling pressure. We do not hold
overnight positions more than five days. A long position will be closed when
the stock gaps down. (Sometimes, the position is liquidated on the second gap-down.)
The opposite rules applies for closing short positions.
Overnight Positions
News said that the company posted better-than-expected second-quarter results and gave a strong
guidance, but shares fell after the diet company said its president and
operating chief will leave to attend to family health issues.
66.30 to 59.50

issue. I covered the position shortly before the close.
59.50 to 54.50
+5.0 point
I made up the loss.
