Automation Recap November 30, 2018

• Strategy: Bear Kitten
• Stock Ticker: DGX
  
• Entry: 85.80
• Exit: 86.66
• Profit:  -$144.13

DGX was a giant “NOPE, not gunna go lower” today. The move over the last 2 sessions was probably too big and I will look at the filters over the weekend to see if I can improve this.

  

• Strategy: S Curvenator
• Stock Ticker: T
  
• Entry: 31.28
• Exit: 31.25
• Profit:  -$16.80

Entry is nice and ready for the continuation on this trade, however, it just didn’t play out. It stalled at around the $31.20 range and once it broke the vwap, it dropped quickly, just after my timed exit.

  

• Strategy: S Curvenator
• Stock Ticker: VMW
  
• Entry: 166.50
• Exit: 164.50
• Profit:  -$181.81

VMW ended pretty quickly for me. The pressure from the top site as well as not being able to break above the VWAP proved to be fatal for this trade. I actually got a little bit of slippage since it moved so fast once it broke the downside. If I was manually trading this, I probably would have shorted and not go long just based on the patterns before the drop.

  

• Strategy: S Curvenator
• Stock Ticker: WRI
  
• Entry: 28.95
• Exit: 28.90
• Profit:  -$25.95

Not a good day for this strategy. 0/3 for me. Look at the gap between the 2nd and 3rd 5 minute candle. This chart looks like its a $5 stock, not a $28 stock. I’ll be taking a good look at the strategy during the weekend. This strategy has done well all month and today it failed pretty badly. 

    

• Strategy: Bear Cub
• Stock Ticker: EQM
  
• Entry: 47.34
• Exit: 46.73
• Profit:  $242.17

Holy retrace Batman! Talk about a solid entry on this one! I’m real happy this trade took place, it certainly help offset S Curvenator today. Unfortunately it found support at the VWAP and was unable to break lower and hit my target.
