Profiting off Multiple Time Frame Breakout Pacific Biosciences of California, Inc. (PACB)

by | Jan 19, 2014

We’ve traded this one quite a bit lately!

This is a recap of Friday’s trade where I made $3400 with as little as $300 set risk vs. reward. Something which I have been working on is ADDING into winners, I started small at $6.08 as you’ll see below BUT added along the way as the trend set back up in a pattern I am familiar with (ABCD long set up) using the houses money as risk!

As I covered on my DVD (don’t forget to save 50% with promo code FIRST250) I love multiple time frame breakouts — the ideal trade is when the intraday 1 minute chart lines up with a major breakout on the daily chart!

In this case  $5.50s on the daily chart is what we were interested in (draw a line across on the chart if you can’t see it).

We traded it earlier this week live in chat anticipating that $5.50 breakout and from that point forward it became an accumulation weak opens or buy dips if trend holds type of play because the trend is changing and beginning to breakout:

[Jan 15, 2014 9:14:48 AM EST] InvestorsLive PACB stil like that chart

[Jan 15, 2014 9:35:10 AM EST] InvestorsLive PACB started long — small plan on scan

[Jan 15, 2014 11:28:37 AM EST] InvestorsLive PACB chart working — gonna let this one trend slowly — I haven’t added from original entry but gonan give patience

[Jan 15, 2014 2:36:17 PM EST] InvestorsLive PACB !! yes nHODs

[Jan 15, 2014 2:47:05 PM EST] InvestorsLive took gains off PACB

 

Here is the chart before the $5.50 test check out it out on the daily:

Pacb(1)

 

Next you can check out the chart here after $5.50 broke out and how dips became buys (as you can see by the wick on the red day) As it started to near the $6 (whole number as you know we love whole and half dollar marks) we watched either to anticipate the $6 break and since I missed the perk for $6 … I used the $6 over/under test to judge risk after taking the name long — you can see the alert below but the chart should help you better understand why I trusted the trade

 

Pacb(2)

 

Here is the intraday chart — can you guys see what pattern is forming on the intraday chart from 10:30 to 11AM ??? Those that got the DVD know! If you haven’t snagged the DVD yet for 50% off make sure you do as the sale is ending soon. This is a NO BRAINER long entry with set risk vs. reward + MTF breakout = $$$

 

 

Here is Friday’s trade — for those who follow on twitter I gave this alert as well!
