Stocks could continue to slide lower, but we are content to exit $SNAP and $AAPL with a small gain. $TER hit our breakeven stop so no harm done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our nightly scans did not produce much in the way of actionable setups on either side of the market. There wasn&#8217;t much out there in terms of low-risk shorts with markets down several days in a row. As for longs, IBD breakout setups are off the table in an ugly market with no buy signal. Stocks showing relative strength near highs like energy are struggling as of late with volatility picking up due to Russia\/Ukraine news. Without energy, there is almost zero leadership on the long side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are no new official setups for Wednesday. Below are a few charts we are monitoring on both sides of the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>$TER hit our breakeven stop and reversed lower by the close. A break of the two-day low could put $TER back in play. This is not an official setup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.morpheustrading.com\/~rick\/\/charts\/2021\/220223TER.png\" alt=\"$TER daily\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>$BLDR reversed lower on Tuesday with a pick-up in volume and could be in play on the short side if the market remains weak.

We do this because we prefer to trade 10-12 names to keep the report active.&nbsp; However, if your goal is to maximize returns, taking 18-25% positions is the way to go.&nbsp; &nbsp;If trading in a non-margin account, this will limit the portfolio to 4-5 positions.&nbsp; If on margin, then 8-10 positions. Our risk per trade on average is just over 1\/2 of 1%. Experienced traders may want to risk 1% to 2% per trade.&nbsp; &nbsp;For example, a 20% position in a 100k account with a 6% stop loss would result in a $1,200 loss (1.2%).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<p>This list is a good starting point for monitoring the health of the market for those who have limited time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/morpheustrading.com\/services\/swing-trade-alerts\">https:\/\/morpheustrading.com\/services\/swing-trade-alerts<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-light-green-cyan-background-color has-background\"><em><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/morpheustrading.com\/services\/swing-trade-alerts\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Start my Wagner Daily membership now<\/a><\/strong> to start receiving winning Morpheus stock trade signals, including a stock portfolio you can easily follow. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/morpheustrading.com\/services\/swing-trade-alerts\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The Wagner Daily PRO<\/a> <\/strong>includes <strong>live swing trader room<\/strong> for daily, real-time trade ideas and powerful stock trading education. <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Just to be balanced, here are a few longs to watch.<\/p>\n<p>$DDOG is still in pretty good shape and could be in play IF the market reverses higher.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":12060,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[782],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-17398","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-wagner-daily-archives"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/morpheustrading.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17398","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/morpheustrading.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/morpheustrading.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/morpheustrading.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/morpheustrading.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17398"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/morpheustrading.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17398\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":17402,"href":"https:\/\/morpheustrading.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17398\/revisions\/17402"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/morpheustrading.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/12060"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/morpheustrading.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17398"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/morpheustrading.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17398"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/morpheustrading.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17398"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
