How Trend Rider Swing works
Swing trading fits a life with a job in it. Trend Rider Swing checks the daily chart once the market closes, tells you if there's a setup for tomorrow, and hands you tonight's plan. Place the order, close the laptop, and go do something you love. When you're in, it manages the ride with a stop that only moves up.
Checks the trend is real
Price above its 200-day average, and the 20-day average above the 50-day and still rising. Below the 200-day it says SIT OUT.
Wave check: is there real push behind the trend? The weekly trail, strength against SPY, volume and gamma. Waits for the dip
A pullback that tags the 20-day average and closes back above it on a green candle. That's the setup.
Tonight's plan
A buy stop just over the recent 5-day high, good for the next session only. The stop goes under the last few days' low with a volatility cushion, and the share count fits your account risk.
Manages the ride
No fixed target. Once you're up 1R, the stop keeps 60% of your best gain and only moves up. While you're in, the verdict reads 🏄 RIDING with today's stop.
Quick Read when the ride is over: two closes through the trend line turn the verdict to 🦈 SHARK SIGHTING (Bail Out). Flags the danger
Earnings coming up, a gap risk over the weekend, or a trend that has rolled over all show up at the top before you act.
Structure Fit: the trend line is broken, with the nearest support and resistance.
Calm on the board, whatever the ocean does.
Ten minutes after the close.
Check, plan, place the order. No staring at a screen all day.
Winners get room to run.
The trailing stop locks in money as the trend climbs, so you aren't the one deciding when to sell in a panic.
It's honest about where it works.
It's built for fast-moving stocks on the daily chart, and that's what it's graded on.
