Stock Picks Recap for 11/11/15
With each stock's recap, we will include a (with market support) or (without market support) tag, designating whether the trade triggered with or without market directional support at the time. Anything in the first five minutes will be considered WITHOUT market support because market direction cannot be determined that early. ETF calls do not require market support, and are thus either winners or losers.
From the report, no picks for the Holiday.
From the Messenger/Tradesight_st Twitter Feed, BIIB triggered long (without market support) and worked great:
Rich's AMZN triggered long (without market support) and worked:
His CYBR triggered short (with market support) and worked:

Triggered short at 2066.75, hit first target for 6 ticks, stopped second half over the entry:
NQ:
Just a reminder that we use half points for ticks on the NQ and not the quarter point measurement that the exchanges switched to in recent years. This allows us to use 6 ticks as a key target as we do on the other contracts. It also keeps the value of a tick at $10, closer to the value of a tick on the other contracts.
Triggered long at 4637.00 at A, hit first target for 6 ticks, stopped second half under the entry:
