Swing Trader Pro: Afternoon Briefing (08-17-2023)

August 17, 2023

From the Desk of Kimmy Sokoloff

This is a tough market.

We'll see if they hold 439 on $SPY.

Here are today’s trades:

  • I shorted $ROKU at 79.78 and covered at 79.28.
  • I bought $VLO at 134 and sold at 134.50.
  • I bought $GS at 332.35 and sold at 332.85.
  • I shorted $CSCO at 55.39 and covered at 55.08. “Way too boring” but it did hit my target at 54.88.
  • I shorted $TWLO at 59.26 and covered at 59.09. "Way too slow" but it did hit my target at 58.76.

I also called out setups in $GOOGL and $MRK.

I booked one loser:

  • I bought $CVS at 66.35 and sold at 65.54.

I have open long positions in $VXX, $MRNA, and $TGT.

I have open short positions in $QQQ, $KLAC, and $NFLX.

Have a great evening. Look for the Morning Briefing on Friday.

And please reach out with any questions.
