Swing Trader’s Insight
March 14 – Sell Short Day in May Soybeans
In last night’s edition of Swing Trader’s Insight I labeled the May soybeans as having a Taylor Trading Sell Short day for Wednesday. In this morning’s note for STI I reiterated the Sell Short day call; that signal worked well today. This week was a good example of how the rhythm of the Taylor Trading… Read more.
March 9 – Breakout Buy in EMini SP
In last night’s edition of Swing Trader’s Insight I labeled the EMini S&P (among many markets) as having a breakout setup for today. From a chart standpoint the ES had a breakout setup because Thursday was an NR7 day. From a market psychology standpoint it was logical to look for a breakout move today if… Read more.
Feb. 8 – Two Breakout Trades in the EMini SP
In last night’s edition of Swing Trader’s Insight I labeled the stock indices as having breakout setups for today. The three I cover (ES, NQ, and RT) had NR4 days on Wednesday as did the EMini Dow.

February 5 –Taylor Trading Buy Day in the EMini SP
Today is a Taylor Trading Technique Buy day for the EMini S&P futures. Treating today as a normal trading day gave a decent buy this morning. If you treat the Sunday night trade as a discrete trading session gave earlier and lower long entry. Last week, breakout setup days on Wednesday and Thursday yielded a… Read more.
Breakout Buy in the EMini S&P – January 26, 2018
In last night’s Swing Trader’s Insight I labeled the EMini S&P as a breakout trade candidate for today. I used this call along with today’s early session pattern to ride the market higher today.

Buying a Sell Day in the EMini S&P – January 17, 2018
In yesterday’s blog post I wrote about a short sale trade in the EMini S&P (read that here). This was based on the ES being in the Sell Short day of the Taylor Trading Technique (TTT) cycle. Yesterday’s afternoon’s recovery meant I labeled today the Sell day of the cycle. However, unlike the label, the… Read more.
Taylor Trading Sell Short Day in EMini S&P Futures – January 16, 2018
Today the EMini S&P futures were on the Sell Short day of the Taylor Trading Technique (TTT) cycle.

Friday was the second day of a market rally, giving the TTT… Read more.
Taylor Trading Buy Day in Crude Oil Futures – January 12, 2018
