TraderSmith applies the rules of CAN SLIM Investing System, propounded by our Founder William J. O'Neil in a swing trading environment to help you take advantage of short term trends. Unlike other swing trade products, TraderSmith combines fundamental analysis with technical analysis to increase your potential for success. We go for quick hits. Most trades will last 15 β 20 days. In a strong market the profit goal is about 7% on the upside with a stop loss of around 3%. TraderSmith is nimble, so the goals are quickly adjusted to fit the character of the market. The strategy is simple: go for base hits. A lot of small gains can add up to big profits. One Simple List: The current trades list prioritizes stocks that are currently in a buy zone. Then, youβll see stocks that have already triggered a buy point or are waiting to enter a buy zone. Easy-to-Read Charts: TraderSmith charts show you the trade setup visually and give you more detailed information. Trade Setup: For each trade youβll get a quick overview including Trade Setup, Buy Zone, Profit Goal and Stop Loss. Past Trades Once a trade is closed by a stock reaching the profit goal, flashing a sell signal or hitting the stop loss, the stock moves to the past trades section. You get a snapshot of each closed trade and this list is easy to sort and search. Market Analysis The market analysis in TraderSmith is unique and tailored for a swing trading environment, so it might be different from the analysis in other William O'Neil India products you may use.
