Went short when the stock had a hard time penetrating and staying above pre-market high of 248.66. 
Short avg around 247.  Covered short around 242.  +5 points. 
Looking for the gap of 238.68 to get filled at some point.  We came close today with a low of 240.75 before we got that bounce. 
245 is a key level for me tomorrow.  No current positions.   I have every intentions on taking a position providing an opportunity presents itself.

If we just look at trading action today; the trend sticks out like a sore thumb.  Trading in any other direction but that of the trend is what?  You guessed it; it's fighting the trend. 
Currently in this trade; will detail it when I am out but key levels I am paying attention to is 138-140.  Mainly 139 ish.  That seemed like a real battleground level today. 
Trade wisely.

$LULU

Picture
​Stock shed 9% or so after hours.  I suspect we will continue the sell-off tomorrow.  I expect an early morning run up then a drop. 
After hour close at Horizontal support=$69-$70. 
 
How would I play this?  Wait for it to get as close to $74 as possible and then short (waiting for the appropriate signal and confirmation).
 
I will be making commentary on this stock tomorrow on both my Twitter (@marketdeclassd) and Stocktwits (@shortmetina) account. 
​Happy Trading!

$HAIN

In my private twitter feed, this stock has been played 3 ways.  Continue reading. 

Day 1: 8/16/'16
Short around $40.  Closed short around high $37.  (+2.5 points).

Day 2: 8/17/'16
Short around $39.70.  Close short around low $37 (+2 points).
Long around low $37 (using $37.25 as risk).  

Day 3: 8/18/'16 (tomorrow's game plan)
​Hold long position using $37.25 as risk.  Tgt= $39/$40.  
Stop out around $36.

Make sure general market conditions supports a long thesis.  Also, understand the idea of risk vs reward.  

Day 4: 8/19/2016- Follow-up
Yesterday proved to be a decent day, average of (+1-1.5 points); if you didn't chase and paid attention to my point of entry (which showed support).
Overall, neutral to bearish today.  Levels to pay attention to is yesterday's HOD ($38.66) and $39.30-50 (which is 2nd level of resistance).  If it's having a hard time penetrating any of those levels; may see further downside.  
I just can't make a bullish case for this stock right now (based on this week's trading activity).  

All and all, 4.5-6 points on this play.

$ISNS

Picture
What you should look out for is “patterns” in the markets; within a stock, etc..  Out of the handful of stocks that I’ve analyzed on my “charts of the week”; most have been explosive in the first 5 minutes of trading and then they fade for the remainder of the day.  $ISNS is no different.
Exploded during open and faded.
 
In my private twitter feed I said; possible trades were
  1. Buying support for the short “pop” or
  2. Shorting the breakdown.  (Find out more about shorting here)
 
Both trades would have worked.  Look at illustration for what I mean.

Unlike the other runners this week, this kept going for 30 minutes before selling off.  
At any rate, a sustained move above $2.15 (or 10 day moving avg) is bullish .
Resistance 2: $2.27, and then
Resistance 3: $2.40

Support 1: $1.89
Support 2: $1.95

Pay attention to volume around those key areas.  That should tell you; your best case scenario.  Remember to define stops and allocate accordingly.

Buy, Short or Hold?
....stock is range bound. 
Exploded the first 3 minutes of trading, then spent the day trading within a range.  $2.55-$2.16.  
Stock closed close to the "upper end" of range.  
If I played this as a short; I would wait for it to get as close to $2.55 (possibly some over) and short it. Covering around $2.16 (+.40/per share).  
If I wanted to long; I would buy as close to support ($2.16) as possible and selling around resistance ($2.55).  

Remember to define stops and allocate accordingly.

Buy, Short, Hold?
Short!  (What is shorting?)
Stock exploded in the first few minutes of trading (long green candles) but faded for the remainder of the day. Volume weened off as well.  Based on volume alone; there is no interest.  

How I would play this?
Short if stock opens below today's close, for a quick wash.  
Paying attention to first level of support ($2.45).  If it cracks that, the fall is steep.  Next support isn't until $2.  
If it pops on the open and I see a green candle.  I am looking at resistance levels. 
1st. $2.65 and 2nd $3.00.

$SHIP

Picture
Members of our private twitter feed were alerted to buy $SHIP at $6.35 and we saw a spike to $7.17 in less than 30 mins.  

​Are we going to Buy, sell or hold?
 
Long? Two possible long scenarios:
1. $5.80-$6.  Is the safest buy level based on chart
2.Break out level would be a sustatined move about $6.30 
Short? Two possible short scenarios:
1.I would play this two ways?  If it opens lower than today’s close; I would go short.
2. I would short break out area of $6.50-$6.60

Keep your stops tight.
