Swing Trader Pro: Afternoon Briefing (10-24-2022)

October 24, 2022

From the Desk of Kimmy Sokoloff

We opened up on the indices, and they came back down to fill their respective gaps.

We trended higher the rest of the day, but it was a pretty volatile morning.

Here are today's trades:

  • I shorted $ORCL at 73.03 and covered at 72.59.
  • I shorted $VLO at 129.01 and covered at 128.51.
  • I shorted $ORCL at 72.53 and covered at 72.33.
  • I bought $CHWY at 37.81 and sold at 38.09.
  • I bought $SE at 45.24 and sold at 45.64.
  • I bought $MS on Oct. 18 at 80.45 and sold today at 81.10.

This was odd, as there was a spike at 10:47 a.m. ET and 33,531 shares traded. I happened to get executed. I think it was a fat finger by someone that spiked the stock.

I also called out long setups in $SPY and $QQQ this morning, with targets of 380 and 279.40, respectively.

I took one loss today:

  • I shorted $VLO at 127.57 and covered at 129.18.

I have one open position:

  • I bought $TLT at 93.60.

The SPX held in nicely at the close. Resistance above is 3,800, then 3,827.

We'll see you live at tomorrow's open to start the trading day.

And please reach out with any questions.
