Are you ready for your ideal setup? Good Morning! You hear the saying all the time, âyou canât control the market.â Or âtake what the market gives you.â Theyâre both true. You canât force setups ⦠Some days there are more runners than you can track. Other days are slow⦠Itâs like hunting or fishing⦠Some days you go out and you sit there all day and see nothing⦠Maybe you see a squirrel climb a tree, or some birds fly overhead. But that's it. Do you get pissed off? Do you throw your gear and kick the tree? Or do you come back the next day, put in your time, and eventually get rewarded? With fishing itâs the same thing ... You could have the perfect weather, time of year, and the right moon phase⦠⦠You can have the right bait and your favorite lucky spot⦠and you can still get skunked! Itâs the same in trading. All you can do is make the best of the situation and prepare for the next day and the next opportunity. If you want to learn how to stalk the perfect plays, read on⦠And donât forget, weâre only hours away from Mark Croockâs event where heâll share his [shadow trades strategy]( for FREE! Heâs live TONIGHT at 8 p.m. Eastern, so donât miss it â [RSVP here now]( How to Stalk Plays There might not be a play every day that suits your setup, but that doesnât mean you shouldnât be ready for the next opportunity⦠For example, I send my watchlist for the week out every Sunday. But I donât know for sure which stock will move and on which day. Thatâs where you have to put in the work. Just like if you were hunting, you wouldnât go out and try to get a deer without target practice first⦠In trading, you have to be primed and ready to strike when the right trade comes along. That means knowing which [chart pattern]( to look for and trade, and what your [trading plan]( is. Letâs look at a few stocks from my watchlist to give you an idea of how to stalk a stock for the right play⦠My two oil and gas [swing trade ideas]( this week are Occidental Petroleum Corporation (NYSE: [OXY]( and Exxon Mobil Corporation (NYSE: [XOM](. Iâve been talking about them for months. If youâve been following my watchlist for a while, maybe youâre already riding the momentum. But what if youâre not in yet and youâre [looking for an entry]( Both stocks are close to their 52-week highs. So you could set an alert near that level and wait for it to trigger. Then you can enter on the breakout and ride any upside momentum. [Get my four tips for trading breakouts here](. [Learn how to avoid false breakouts here](. Another option is to wait for [red-to-green moves](. This strategy would need a bit more of your attention. Youâd have to change your alert levels each day or watch the stocks closely for the move... Youâd also have to monitor them near resistance levels to determine if you want to take any potential profits or see if it can break above resistance and keep going higher. Like Iâve said in the past, I think oil and gas stocks are far from done. But instead of sitting around and waiting all day â like you would hunting or fishing â you can use the power of technology to help you stalk the best plays. Use [StocksToTradeâs powerful scanners]( to help you find big percent gainers each day... And [use alerts]( to save you the time and frustration of sitting around waiting for stock moves that might never come. Plus StocksToTradeâs built-in [Oracle algorithm]( can help you find the top 20 potential trades every trading day. And it gives you levels to help you plan your trades. Want to see what it can do for you? [Watch this]( [And get your special limited-time pricing here](.
