CAT trade ideas
Caterpillar Elliott Wave IdeaCAT possibly in wave 4 now after completing what looks like very bullish wave 3 of 3 of 3.
Watch for the live CAT bounceThis is a short term trade.
to specify, short term meaning no more than 2 hour trade(Perhaps max) I'm pretty sure we break above the close Tuesdays 152.95. The quicker you are in the morning, the better. Hopefully we get a quick bounce off of 152.70s to launch into 153.50s.
And the final reminder, this trade is no longer than 2 hours. At the very least, trail a stop loss just in case it runs beyond 153.70s.
Lets see how I do on the CAT call(s)
Short Caterpillar!Showing weakness on a strong day. this might do down this week and hit 146ish! The only that might be positive for this stock is that it is falling on less Volume!
Buying PUTS might be worth the RISK!
CMP : 152.35
$CAT flag breakoutLooks like a tight and high type flag, which are known to be potent breakout plays. I will wait for the end of the day as it looks a little weak right now at midday.
CAT lesson - Open was Bullish & End was BearishYou need to understand that price action always comes back to 20 moving average or middle of Bollinger Indicator. When anything is overstretched, like a rubber band and let go, it will come back to normal or back in balance. No price action can continue to either go up and/or down for long, that is why oversold and/or overbought areas are very important, in your trading.
*IF you were all in buying CAT at beginning of today and did not understand this LESSON, you would have took a huge loss of $15.00 per share. Be flexible and understand price action and trust both your EYES and charts, they will tell you were they are going in the future.
