Stocks Of The Day: WFMI, CTSH,  KLAC And CROX

High - Low Bands: Changing Positions


Gapper's Eye utilizes our original unique stock scanner, Break Scan, and sophisticated chart software, CQG. With nominal fee, the Break Scan is available to our members.  

The Kamikaze Gap Play was introduced to the U.S. traders in the August 2005 issue of Active Trader Magazine.   




The Nasdaq opened lower and formed a narrow range down bar. The index is in the long zone, but this is not good time to swing trade.   

 

Find stocks appear on both Swing Scan and Break Scan.

 

 

A nice looking daily chart.

 

 

We had plenty of 30-minute gap patterns today.

 

 

This is an ideal daily chart pattern.
 

 

 

The small spread makes KLAC easier to trade. The daily chart looks good , too.

 


 

GROW is not easy to trade because of wide spread.


 

 

This daily does not look bad at all.



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.

Swing Scan Watch

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.   

 

Both stocks have somewhat big gaps.
