MARKET SUMMARY
*****************************
US stocks as measured by the S&P 500 closed lower for the first time in five sessions after new labor market data elevated concerns about the economy and uncertainty over the next move by the Federal Reserve Bank. The number of job openings across the nation dropped in February to the lowest level in almost two years, raising hopes that the Fed might reconsider its aggressive campaign of rate increases intended to lower inflation. Oil futures were above $80 a barrel Tuesday after jumping higher on an announcement from OPEC members stating they would be cutting production. Higher oil prices will add to inflation, potentially to the point where the Fed feels the need to continue raising interest rates. This obvious dissonance will resolve itself in time, but for now it's a toss up as to how the FOMC - Federal Open Market Comittee - will respond. In other news, gold futures leaped to a new 13-month high, the USD/dollar ended the day lower. Apr 3, 2023 Apr 4, 2023

TRADER'S TIP:
***********************************
TRADER'S TIP: "Limiting Losses? Don't Over Do It" One key element in successful trading is the ability to keep losses under control. While this consideration should certainly be included in any trading strategy, don't go overboard with the idea of keeping losses small. Your initial stop-loss should permit a realistic rise and fall in prices. If you attempt to keep losses TOO small you will end up taking unnecessary losses. Protecting your trading account should always be a priority, but don't over do it. Give each trade some room, and you'll increase the odds of success. Remember that you can always compensate for wider stops by entering with a smaller position size. **************************

TRADER'S TIP:
***********************************
TRADER'S TIP: "More Winners, or More Profits?" It's always nice to have a winning trade, yet a large number of winners don't always guarantee a large amount of profits. A review of the top ten most profitable mechanical trading systems of all time revealed that the best winning rate was 57.5%. Surprisingly, several of the top performers had more losers than winners. The key to the success of these systems is that winning trades outperformed losers by a wide margin. The stock market can be a finicky at times, so make sure to use risk control to protect your profits and capital. One big winner can offset several small losers. Always cut losses quickly and let the winners grow. And remember, profits matter more than the percentage of winners. ***********************************
STOCKS COVERED IN THIS ISSUE
***********************************
CONSUMER CYCLICAL SECTOR Revolve Group, Inc. (RVLV: Consumer Cyclical/Internet Retail) - SQUEEZE PLAY. RVLV shareholders know what it feels like to be squeezed. Tuesday's slim price range reveals uncertainty on both sides of the table, a situation which often resolves itself by either Bears or Bulls quickly gaining a clear advantage. The question is "who will win?" Near-term market action tell us whether we should sell short or we should buy shares instead. RVLV closed Tuesday at 26.23. The plan is to enter in the right direction by placing a BUY trigger at 26.8 and a SELL short trigger at 25.08. Once RVLV establishes direction, place your triggered order. As soon as you are in the trade, place a trailing stop in the amount of 1.72. After you've collected a 2.48 profit, tighten the stop to 0.86. Earnings Report Date: May 01, 2023. Beta: 2.15. Market-Cap: 1.953B. Optionable. HEALTHCARE SECTOR Genelux Corporation (GNLX: Healthcare/Biotechnology) - BULLISH BOUNCE. Here is another example of a stock in an established uptrend that has recently experienced a counter-trend drop. The sliding price action has now found support near a moving average zone, bouncing upward during Tuesday's session to close at 27.60. Anticipate the rebound to continue, and be ready to buy GNLX at 27.2. Follow your entry with a trailing stop of 1.16 which can be tightened to 0.58 on a 14.42 profit. Earnings Report Date: N/A. Beta: N/A. Market-Cap: 653.356M. Not Optionable. argenx SE (ARGX: Healthcare/Biotechnology) - BULLISH BOUNCE. Up-trending stocks like ARGX have a tendency to bounce their way skyward rather than travel higher in a straight line. After touching down to a moving average support level on Tuesday, ARGX is poised to lift off again. To take advantage of this setup, prepare to BUY shares at 372.38 if positive price action occurs. As always, follow your entry with a trailing stop. A 21.96 trailer should work well with ARGX. Tighten it to 10.98 on a 18.1 gainer. Earnings Report Date: N/A. Beta: 0.48. Market-Cap: 21.02B. Optionable. Cutera, Inc. (CUTR: Healthcare/Medical Devices) - SQUEEZE PLAY. CUTR traders on both sides of the fence are now locked in a head-to-head shootout. Tuesday's price range was the narrowest in over a week, as neither Bears or Bulls have been able to clearly gain the upper hand. This gives us an opportunity to catch the next directional move with little risk of loss. To do this we'll place both a long and a short trigger with a BUY at 24.01 and a SELL short trigger at 22.24. When one of the orders is filled, cancel the remaining order and enter a 1.77 trailing stop. When you've reached a 3.82 paper profit, tighten the stop to 0.89. CUTR closed at 23.05 on Tuesday. Earnings Report Date: May 08, 2023. Beta: 1.58. Market-Cap: 454.445M. Optionable. Denali Therapeutics Inc. (DNLI: Healthcare/Biotechnology) - SQUEEZE PLAY. Sometimes when Bulls and Bears face off in the market arena for a typical day-long battle, there is no clear winner. This is evident when the daily price range contracts to an unusually narrow state. DNLI found itself in this condition on Tuesday when neither buyers or sellers were able to push ahead. This setup provides traders a chance to hop on board the next breakout - whether it's to the upside or down - with little risk of loss. To do this place a BUY order at 23.99 and a SELL short trigger at 22.39. When DNLI moves outside of Tuesday's range, one of the orders will be filled. Once you hold a position of shares, cancel the unfilled order and place a 1.6 trailing stop. After you've got a 2.26 profit, tighten the stop to 0.8. DNLI closed at 23.66 on Tuesday. Earnings Report Date: May 03, 2023. Beta: 1.38. Market-Cap: 3.234B. Optionable.
