Live Alerts:
TT is Buying Now!
The stock is breaking out of a pivot and is buyable, per the strategy. Tactical Trades will be tracking this stock’s performance in the Tactical Portfolio. Do not chase a stock up more than 2% past the breakout level. Be sure to monitor spread and average daily volume as to not incur too much slippage and be at an immediate loss. Stop losses are provided, but will not be alerted when they are hit. Tactical Trades may or may not be purchasing this stock in our personal accounts.
Set Buy Stop!
Tactical Trades is giving you a heads up to the specific price level where the stock is buyable. Do not buy in earlier than this price, as the trade is not yet validated. All Buy Stop alerts are only valid for that current day. If a Buy Stop does not trigger an entry that day, it does not mean that the same price level will be valid the next day. If it is, another Buy Stop alert will be sent out again.
Added to Watch List
Stocks that meet our criteria and could be buyable that day or within the next week. It does NOT mean you should immediately buy them. Wait for the stock to break out. Just because they are on our watch list does not mean they are certain to break out.
Breakout Alert!
The stock has broken out of a base or pivot and is buyable. Tactical Trades will not be providing a stop loss, sell alerts, nor tracking the performance in Tactical Portfolio. Tactical Trades may or may not be purchasing this stock in our personal accounts.
TT is Selling Now!
Stock is being sold and the entire position is closed. This can occur at a profit or for a loss, circumventing a stop loss. Tactical Trades may or may not be selling the stock in their personal accounts.
Adjusting Stop Loss
Tactical Trades reviews each portfolio position at market close and evaluates whether the stop loss should be moved up. Check the Tactical Portfolio each morning for updated Stop Losses. If a stop loss is updated during market hours, you’ll get the “Adjusting Stop Loss” alert.
TT is Selling Short Now!
Stock is being sold short. Stop loss and tracking provided in Tactical Portfolio.
TT is Buying to Cover Now!
The short sale stock is being covered and the entire position is closed. This can occur at a profit or a loss, circumventing a stop loss.
EARNINGS GUIDANCE
Tactical Trades will provide alerts informing when a stock is about to report earnings (after the close, or tomorrow before the open). Tactical Trades will provide the implied volatility calculated by options data. ONLY the stocks being tracked by the Tactical Portfolio will be alerted with earnings guidance. A stock that is simply on the watch list or given a Breakout Alert will not be given earnings guidance in the form of an alert. Always track your own portfolio and know when your holdings are going to report.
