Stock Picks Recap for 1/8/14
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, NVDA triggered long (with market support) and didn't do enough either direction to count, closed near the trigger:
BRCD triggered long (with market support) and didn't do enough either direction to count, closed at the trigger but spent most of the time slightly in the money:
CERS triggered long (with market support) and worked:
From the Messenger/Tradesight_st Twitter Feed, Rich's AMBA triggered short (without market support due to opening 5 minutes) and worked:
His KORS triggered short (with market support) and worked:
His FRX triggered short (without market support) and didn't work:
His MU triggered short (with market support) and worked:
In total, that's 3 trades triggering with market support, all 3 of them worked.

Net ticks: +0 ticks.
As usual, let's start by taking a look at the ES and NQ with our market directional lines, VWAP, and Comber on the 5-minute chart from today's session:
