BUY TODAY SELL TOMORROW for 5%DON’T HAVE TIME TO MANAGE YOUR TRADES? - Take BTST trades at 3:25 pm every day - Try to exit by taking 4-7% profit of each trade - SL can also be maintained as closing below the low of the breakout candle Now, why do I prefer BTST over swing trades? The primary reason is that I have observed that 90% of the stocks give most of the movement in just 1-2 days and the rest of the time they either consolidate or fall.

RectangleNeutral until broken with trend in that direction. Horizontal trading ranges also know as a consolidation zone. I am pretty sure this is the company who had a derailment in Ohio. Fish and animals are dying in unusual amounts in the area after a mushroom cloud of chemical debris was released in to the atmosphere in the surrounding area. The EPA says all is well with the water that was contaminated after the derailment with chemical toxins. The "higher ups" in government have had little or nothing to say about this possible disaster. No recommendation. I am doubtful the big guy will shut down railways due to dangers to our atmosphere as he did with pipelines or we will be in DDT (deep dark trouble)

Transportation leader $NSC is making new highsNorfolk Southern Corp. operates more than 19,000 miles of rail road in the U.S. With a #2 ranking in the IBD Group Leadership and a RS line rating of 84, NSC is close of making an ATH. This is a sign of very good technicals. On the fundamental side, it had a revenues increas of 15% to $8.29B for the nine months ended 30 September 2021. Also, for the last 3 quarters reported and increase in sales and EPS. What may drive the price up for the upcoming weeks, are the news of NYSE:NSC is collaborating with NYSE:X and NYSE:GBX to create a new and sustainable high-strength steel railcar. Is a partnership between supplier, builder, and end-user. The company is also launching a new web site called NSites, a GIS-based search engine to help businesses easily find rail-served industrial sites and transload facilities that meet their needs. Remeber that round numbers like $300 holds a pretty strong psychological barrier. So I'll be waiting for the breakout.

NORFOLK SOUTHERN CORP Idea Hey my friends, NORFOLK SOUTHERN CORP is in a historic moment we can see it making a new historical high. It is in a fake bearish push with a large volume of buying executed at the end of the session and a refusal from the sellers. In TIMEFRAME M1 we notice an attempt by repressed buyers with a large volume of traded sales. And we zoom in we can see that it wanted to test a strong resistance but lacking for the moment at the level of the buying force. Great potential to break resistance and go breakout the zone of balance then volume. To go up on the last highest before session and finally to really breakout the price zone. Please LIKE & FOLLOW, thank you!
