Stock Picks Recap for 8/13/13
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, HAIN gapped over the trigger, no play.
BIDU triggered long (with market support) and worked:
From the Messenger/Tradesight_st Twitter Feed, GOOG triggered short (with market support) and worked great:

Forex Calls Recap for 8/12/13
My call for the session would have been EURUSD short under S1 for S2, but there was only 22 pips between them and that's just not the risk/reward we like to see.
