Technical Stock Trading Picks

Throughout the trading week, we scan the universe of stocks and ETFs for setups that are worthy of consideration by swing traders.

Each chart is run through a battery of technical analysis studies and the best of the lot make it to the long and short watchlists. Every new pick comes not only with a rundown of the technical analysis backdrop but also with complete trading parameters, including entry triggers, targets, and potential stop loss/profit protection strategies.

Existing trading picks are updated after every trading session and any necessary changes in trading strategy are made note of.

You can take a look at a synopsis of past stock picks, via the 'Past Stock Picks' tab above.
