This is a scalp for correction of ' similar degree' to previous correction > target is in price & volume 'point of control' on...
This new high seems climactic...selling a break-back below older 20 day high level for a few days hold correction only. As a CFD trade, I will re-assess at close of trade today and if not in good profit may add a 'Guaranteed stop ' premium to avoid any surprise GAPS after weekend upwards.
Note : This is combined with a long hedge position on RMD Buy similar position size as holding overnight; See next notes on RMD 'turtle soup plus one" strategy see 'Short WPL 'trade for actual strategy description posted today

A nice little correction to supportive area and some buying interest on 2 hourlies; with scope to scale in lower. My basic strategy with ALTS is to look for buying opportunities, and then NOT HODL, but take 4-7% scalps. Due to the general volatility this is a greater than 50% chance of occurring providing take the profit and not be concerned with missed...

Plan A _ book a net credit on Bull Put spread, with protection ( insurance) 1 strike below at 5.25 ( -0.25c) providing stock...
This looks a little over-sold today : Sure, energy sector smashed today -5% and worst performing sector on asx, however, Its very over-stretched on the down side today. So this leading energy stock is good to BUY as a day trade only. Not holding over weekend. Only buying small ( about 1/3rd normal size) with a tight stop under low of day. Strategies ticked ( all...
This is taking advantage of a Failure at new 20 day high, it beat 4 days ago, but has corrected quickly back in....shows weakness.

For $400...
