I get a lot of emails and messages from people who are looking to get into swing trading, mostly because they're holding down a full time job & can't watch the markets as often as they'd like. Swing trading can be tough in a niche where volatility rules, but if you hold on to a solid catalyst, you can ride the waves to some pretty easy gains. To understand more about the charts below, check out my other blog post, and read this one to learn how I find so many earnings winners.
If you aren't familiar with the thinkorswim platform, the blue light bulb icon represents an earnings announcement.
Thanks for the karma Chris. I’ve always struggled to make consistent wins day trading. I’ve suffered a lot of huge losses in the past. I think it is because I work a full time job and unable to watch the market as often as I would like to. I came across your blog and like your strategy of swing trading; buying earnings winners on technical breakouts. Once I am able to refund my account, I think I am going to give your strategy a try. Is there a way to just scan earning winners on ThinkorSwim?
@legoflash I think TOS has an earnings scanner, but they don't account for revenues, cash flow, and other events you can find in press releases. That's why I built my own research-delivery system. That's all I use now, and it saves me a ton of time because I don’t have to put together a nightly watch list or anything. I just go through the list, set some alerts in my TOS platform, then get back to my day. Here’s a link http://2alive4925.svbtle.com/how-to-find-earnings-winners Feel free to s
