Stock Close to giving up - rock bottom.

9 Upvotes

All I’m seeing is sideways chop with multiple failed breakouts. I’m trying to swing trade in a Minervini / Quallamaggie style system.

Low volume, no real trend beyond some biotech / pharma and banking stocks. The odd unicorn like Moderna post cancer vaccine announcement.

I’m sat in cash now after having multiple profitable weeks wrecked by aggressive Friday end of week sell offs. I lost all my AI related profits from earlier in the year. Down 23% YTD now and not regaining ground.

Does this resonate with you? If I’m missing something then where are the opportunities? What am I doing wrong?

Happy to share my current watchlist and receive criticism. Beat on me all you want - I’m past caring now and I probably deserve it.

Help.

Swing trading in Take-Two?

1 Upvotes

With the launch of GTA VI just around the corner, how do you see a swing trading opportunity in $TKE? So many recent headlines questioning their new monetization strategy smells like a classic institutional trap, engineered to shake out weak retail hands before a massive pre-release rally.

I played earnings today with 100 shares before market close and now I’m down 3k. Should I hold or sell? I’m asking because I’m worried this sell off might continue as September is the weakest month and there’s an upcoming fed meeting with potential rate hike.

DELL after earnings: AI demand keeps accelerating

2 Upvotes

$DELL put up a pretty impressive quarter.

Revenue hit $47B, adjusted EPS came in at $7.04, and AI orders reached a record $60.9B. Dell also finished the quarter with a $95B AI backlog and raised its full-year revenue outlook to $192B.

The stock initially ripped to around $473 after hours before giving some of the move back.

Strong numbers... but after a move like this, I'm more interested in what the chart does next than chasing the earnings headline.

I put together my full earnings breakdown and the key levels I'm watching for tomorrow:

DELL Stock Spotlight

Curious to see whether buyers can keep the post earnings momentum going.

Question Are September and October typically bad months for swing trading?

11 Upvotes

After watching Mark Minervini's recent market analysis and looking at current conditions (rate expectations, tech rotation, geopolitical tensions, and overall index action), my takeaway is that the market may be heading into a choppy, sideways consolidation or a short-term pullback over the next couple of months.

What is your current game plan? Are you staying mostly in cash and waiting on the sidelines for clearer setups, or continuing to trade with smaller position sizing? Would love to hear how you're approaching this season.
