This week’s broader stock market action makes for tough choices for traders, as price has been mostly range-bound. We will therefore focus on shorter term swing trading set-ups and attempt to capture swing trading profits as price moves back and forth in the larger range. I always prefer to swing trade in longer time frames as they make considerably more consistent profits and have much lower transaction cost impact on a trading account. I was able to find one rubber band swing trade in the weekly chart time frame (MMM)

Swing Trading Signals on the 60-Mintue Charts | AAPL, BA, IBM
The short sellers have really been going after AAPL it seems, and it appears as if AAPL has not been going up with the broader stock market. If a short squeeze develops, there may be swing trading profit opportunity for rubber band swing traders. Watch this one closely and be ready to trade to the long side. Click the chart to enlarge the set-up chart of AAPL
BA and IBM hit their upper extremes last week and may present a good place to go short this week according to the rubber band swing trading strategy on the 60-minute chart. Keep them in your watchlist and only take entry when the time is right.
As with all 60-minute chart rubber band swing trades do not place overnight entry stop orders. Price may gap too far past the entry place and leave you with a terrible entry. This is not acceptable. Pass on rubber band swing trades in which you can’t get an execution close to the desired entry price. Passing on trades and not chasing is part of what it takes to be a successful swing trader in the long term.
Rubber Band Swing Trading Signal | MMM Weekly Chart Long
MMM has turned green after weeks of selling off and moving sideways. Swing trading in this term is less demanding and makes it easier to profit in many ways. Also consider selling out of the money covered calls with such a trade. Leave plenty of room for price to hit its target and just pocket a few extra dollars to pay for transaction costs etc. Click the weekly chart of MMM to enlarge.

Sure enough as predicted it was a tough week to trade last week, with stock prices whip-sawing back and forth each day as price trades in a medium-termed symmetrical triangle. We may see another week of directionless price movement, though each day may be volatile in itself. In other words, the stock market will likely move a lot but not really go anywhere. Take small positions in the coming week until a clear signal develops.
Stock Market Update for Short Term Swing Traders
Short term swing traders should stand back a bit and allow price to show us which way to trade. Observe the chart to the right (click to enlarge). Price has jumped back and forth every day or two but does not really get anywhere – frustrating many trades and taking out stops. Take things easy.  There is no reason for your account value to get chopped into oblivion. Wait until the triangle is broken for clues in which way to trade and then pounce on a few trades in that direction when it breaks. Look for a pullback toward the extreme of the triangle and then pounce again when price resumes in the direction of any breakout.
Stock Market Update for Medium Term Position Traders and Swing Traders
In the medium term stocks have been moving up, but are now approaching sideways movement. Still, we have the green light to remain long in our growth stock trades. If you have set-ups that you really like go ahead and take them to the long side. Just be sure to set your stop loss cuts and do not be upset if you lose a bit of capital. Risk is what you get paid for in the long run and variance can be brutal – you win some you lose some.
Stock Market Update for Longer Term Traders and Investors
Two weeks ago price bounces sharply back below its 200-day moving average. At this time price continues to flirt with this average and should eject to either side, bullish or bearish very soon. I would not gamble with a bet in either direction. Dollar cost averages should stand aside and wait for price to head back south. Value investors should not be in the market for the most part until the 200-day moving average is violated – that is to say that stock market prices begin to trade above these averages. Observe the monthly chart of the SPY and the 200-day moving average. Click to enlarge.
Swing Trading Signals and Setups FCX, INTC, XOM
Free swing trade set-ups for the week. For more information, see the rubber band swing trading strategy.
Swing Trading | FCX Weekly Chart Long
Copper often follows the broad stock market. If FCX can break out from here along with stocks in general, it should really move nicely northward for us in this rubber band swing trade.
The chart shows a nice short sale a few months ago under this strategy.
Swing Trading | INTC Daily Chart Short
This offers a short sale alternative for the position trader.
INTC looks as if it might have found a top in the medium term.
If the stock market and/or INTC tanks, we can jump aboard and try to make a few bucks.
Swing Trading | XOM Daily Chart Short
Oil tends to bounce sharply all over the place. If this is a bounce to the downside, the rubber band swing trade should capture the move.
Swing Trading Signals and Set-Ups | MMM, JPM, MON, AXP, WM

Rubber Band Swing Trade Short Set-ups on the 60-Minute chart
The stock market is overbought and short entries are loaded up. All we need is for things to break so we can maybe make some money swing trading short. In the 60-minute term, I am looking to apply the >>Rubber Band Swing Trading Strategy<< to JPM, MMM, and MON. JPM might be a great way to play a strong pullback in the bank sector. MMM is a DOW 30 behemoth that is showing weakness already ahead of the broader market. The 60-min chart of MON shows a particularly weak pattern.
Rubber Band Swing Trade Short Set-ups on the Daily Chart
For a short sale position trade I like the Rubber Band Swing Trade Strategy as applied to the daily charts of WM and AXP. The daily chart of WM looks especially weak. AXP behaves well for swing traders once it gets moving and offers smaller whipsaws that other stocks in its sector.
Swing Trading | AAPL, JPM, DIS, CSCO
There are two new rubber band swing trade signals along with two old ones that are still valid. Please learn the risks of stock trading prior to investing and do your own research. Swing trading signals are for entertainment purposes only. The authors of this site may be trading these trades and may be long or short these stocks at any time.
AAPL | 60-Minute Chart Long
When will AAPL pop again? Who knows, but when it does launch use the 60-minute chart along with the >>>Â rubber band swing trading strategy <<<< (opens in a new window) as it might be a great way to profit from the move. As always with shorter-term charts and trades, do not get caught in morning gap situations – simply pass on the trade if entry does not come at the desired location.
JPM | Weekly Chart Long
This swing trading signal is still valid, we think. Any of the big bank/financial stocks will do, GS, etc. At some point the banks could recover in this time frame and this is the way to be there if it happens. See the previous swing trade signal post.
DIS | Weekly Long
The same goes for DIS, which seems to follow the broad stock market fairly close. Take advantage of this swing opportunity through DIS. See the previous swing trading post -we think the trade is still quite valid.
CSCO | Monthly Chart “Right Now”
This could have been spotted earlier, as price is sitting right on its entry. The rubber band swing trading strategy could end up capturing a large chunk of what might be a major rally in CSCO. The swing trading signal calls for going long right here at its current price. Don’t chase.
Swing Trading | IBM | Rubber Band Strategy
IBM is setting up for a short swing trade on the daily chart as per the rubber band swing trading strategy. Trading is risky, please do your own research prior to stock investing.
The daily chart of IBM prepares us to go short if the stock market tanks from here. Click on the chart to enlarge.
AXP | Short Sale Signal | Swing Trading Strategy
AXP is showing a long-term rollover on the monthly chart. If the long term trend of AXP is going to tank – who are we to fight the tape?
AXP rings a Rubber Band Swing Trading Strategy signal for a short trade ont he monthly chart. Please do your own research prior to investing in or trading stocks.
