BIDU Stocks Trade Idea – Long

The Wave5trade Elliott Wave Indicator suite has been used to put together this LONG Stocks Trade Idea on BIDU.  As per the chart below the overall bullish trend can be seen and the automated Elliott Wave count indicates the BIDU (Baidu) stock has pulled back against the main Bullish trend on a Wave 4.  The wave5trade strategy involves trading the 5th Wave of the Elliott Wave sequence as it is the highest probability move in a “with trend” trade.  The Wave 4 has pulled back and found support in the Red Pullback zone, which indicates a 75% probability that the 5th Wave will go on and make a new high in this current bullish trend.  We can also see that the price is breaking above the previous pivot just otside the  top of the green zone around $254. The Pullback zones are part of our Elliott Wave Indicator Suite.  We will discuss the remainder of the potential Long trade setup on BIDU below this chart.

There are quite a few elements that are included in our Elliott Wave Indicator Suite for the NinjaTrader NT8, Thinkorswim and TradeStation Platforms. Lets discuss in order to build up the picture of this potential Long trading opportunity on BIDU.

 

  1. The Wave 4 pullback has found support in the Red Zone of our Specially programmed zones to indicate a 75% probability of the 5th wave making a new high.
  2. The 5/35 Oscillator (included in our indicator suite) shows the Wave 4 pullback is between 90% and 140% of the highest point on the oscillator during the 3rd wave.
  3. The Stochastic has crossed over in the overbought zone and is heading up.
  4. The Risk to Reward is 1:1.5 to the automated Target zone that our Elliott Wave Indicator Suite plots on the chart. So risking 1% of trading balance between stop loss and entry gives a potential reward of 1.5% into the target zone.  The minimum Risk to Reward suggested when trading the 5th Wave is 1:1.6 so in this particular case we are a little low into the target zone but the strong Bullish momentum gives confdnece of this potential.
  5. The Entry strategy is developed using previous price action AND importantly above the 6/4 Moving Average High (Green MA line on chart) which is also part of our Elliott Wave trading indicator suite.
So in this case we can see that we have a great deal of evidence that the Wave 4 has behaved as expected and we have a good risk to reward for the trade.  This gives a high probability of success for a Long Trade on BIDU with the following.

 

Long Entry at $254.03, which is above the 6/4 MA High and above the high of recent green candle that attempted to move away from the Wave 4 low.

Stop Loss at $225.48 which is below the wave 4 low

Target Zone $290

Swing trading, Day trading, short-term trading, options trading, and futures trading are extremely risky undertakings.

Hypothetical Performance Disclosure: Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. no representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown; in fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk of actual trading. for example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all which can adversely affect trading results.
