$ANR - Like the volume rising on this one. There will be some resistance around the $3.80 level will watch for a push from that level intraday.
$FEYE - Support $30 level. Looking for a bounce or a breakdown on that level.
$TIBX - Nice push today. Looking for some continuation action. Resistance on $21 and $21.50 levels.
$WPX - Resistance and support levels on the blue lines. Will be trading around these levels.
$ZU - I think if we break $40 on this we could have a gap fill straight to $45 on this one.

Watchlist for 08-06-14
$TSLA - Resistance around that box that I drew. Going for another tap here. Watching for a break on the highs but could even reverse back downward. Past performance can sometime indicate future performance.
$AAPL - Support $95 area. Looking for a bounce for sure here. You can see there was resistance around June time. But now it will act as a support.
$TSL - Like this daily flag. Will wait for an intraday push on this one over $11.50.
$COH - Resistance on $36. Could be either a short or long. Personally like it for a long with that gap up today and nice volume. Could push through $36 tomorrow. Again, will be waiting for an intraday push.

Trades and Recap for the week of 06/23/14
Hey everyone! Decent week for me, kind of a choppy market this week. Definitely over traded some of the days. Only traded 3 days this week. Been focusing on making my blog a little better and trying to bring more new traders into the blog! So share my blog if you enjoy it! Also will be starting to make watchlists everyday! Obviously, it is hard with a job and school work but will try my best to do it!
Week 3 Stats - To check out my trades please click on this link! Tradervue!
Some Trades!
$JD - This one could have been a lot, and I mean a lot better!!! Weak open R/G move! But sold way too early... One of the things I need to work on is selling off half of my positions to guarantee some profits and letting the rest ride.
$YOKU - Here is one of my frustrating trade of the week. Nice first entry, and then sold into resistance of $23.00. But then over traded around that $23 resistance. Finally broke $23, ended up with a small profit. But need to stop over trading when this kind of stock shows up, I just need to walk away.

Trades and Recap for 06/23/14
Another day in the green, but so much money left on the table... Not happy about my trading! One major thing I need to work on is scaling out of a winning position.
Day Stats
$DDD - Nice flag intraday. Sold after the pullback.
$HALO - Was watching the resistance from previous day for the breakout. Already was moving, because of the R/G move.
$YELP - Was anticipating the flag breakout, and I got impatient and called it a day. A minute later, it breaks out huge... Pissed! This could have made my day sooo much better... FUCK!
