Stocks Trading Journal for CRM Long Swing Trade

This stocks trading journal is a review of a recently closed Long Swing Trade on CRM. On the 29th March 2018 we posted a video in our Signals membership for a potential Long Swing Trade for CRM on the Daily time frame. The video had a quick analysis, entry price, Stop Loss and Target price for this potential 5th wave move Long on the Daily timeframe for $CRM. The original video can be viewed  >>>HERE<<<   . The Long Swing Trade order was tip-toe triggerred on the 6th April 2018 and had a slight pull back before gathering momentum on this 5th wave move.

Our 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 in this case pulled back and found final support in the Red Pullback zone, which indicates an 75% probability that the 5th Wave will go on and make a new high in this current Bullish trend. The Pullback zones are part of our Elliott Wave Indicator Suite.  The original chart shown below shows the setup with a Long entry price of $120.23 with Stop below the Wave 4 low at $110.94.  Our automated 5th Wave Target zone in Blue was around the $135 price for this Long trade, giving a 1:1.6 Risk to Reward.

Below this chart is how the trade went and chart showing exit when price went through our automated target zone. (Click on the image to enlarge in another window)

CRM Stocks Trading Journal – What Happened Next

Tip-Toe entry into this Long after a strong move away from the Wave 4 low and out of the 6/4 MA High (Green MA on Chart Below) on 06 April 2018.  Momentum was slow to get going with a couple of pull backs during the first 10 days of the trade.  These two pull backs found higher support levels with rejection Doji’s on the Daily candles, indicating Bullish Bias in the price action.  With this type of 5th Wave move we would usually see the target hit within 20 Days. But the extrodinary volatity in the markts during the first half of 2018 has meant longer 5th wave moves with multiple pullbacks before reaching target.  When managing this type of trade we always look to trail the stop and lock in profits as each higher support level is formed.

Our automated 5th wave target zone was hit in the first week of June with new all time highs.  Profit taken on the 8th June giving a 1.6% profit on the trading account balance and a Gain of 89%

The chart below shows the exit for this typical 5th wave swing trade over 43 days using our Elliott Wave indicator suite. When markets are trending the typical 5th wave swing move takes aound 20 days, but we are in an unusual long term voltaile market at the moment, but the target still gets hit, just in a longer period.

Swing trading, Day trading, short-term trading, options trading, and futures trading are extremely risky undertakings. They generally are not appropriate for someone with limited capital, little or no trading experience, and/or a low tolerance for risk. Never execute a trade unless you can afford to and are prepared to lose your entire investment. All trading operations involve serious risks, and you can lose your entire investment. No trades are recommendations or advice and we cannot be sued for losses of capital. All trades are for educational purposes only.

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. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.
