My ideas are stocks I think might break out in the coming days. In most cases each idea may be traded in one of two ways: Aggressively or Conservatively. Aggressive traders should refer to the table's Exit A column, and Conservative traders the Exit C column.
Entry: The breakout price level is indicated by the "Entry" column. My system buys on the breakout, not in anticipation of a breakout; thus, a stock is only purchased if it's trading at or above the Entry price.
Exit A/C: Depending on whether you plan to trade in an Aggressive or Conservative style, use Exit A or C. This is your initial stop-loss price. If the stock should trade below this price and you own it, SELL THE STOCK. You may also combine the two exits by making Exit C the initial stop-loss and, in addition, sell at market if the stock goes below Exit A on a closing basis.
Order Entry: Use stop-limit buy orders through your broker to buy the stocks, and stop-limit sell orders once you've purchased the stock to protect your capital in case the stock moves against you.
