While the Diary of a Mad Hedge Fund Trader focuses on investment over a one week to six-month time frame, Mad Day Trader, provided by Jim Parker, will exploit money-making opportunities over a brief ten minute to three day window. It is ideally suited for day traders, but can also be used by long-term investors to improve market timing for entry and exit points.

Stocks...
AAPL...is breaking out to the upside on a qtrly chart above 95.30.
I'm looking for another 10-15 % of upside.
GPRO...Gopro is consolidating between 40.50 support and 45.25 resistance. These two levels will run the next swing.
Spu's...need a close below 1954 to signal a high.
Nasd 100...needs price action below 3884 to take a run @ 3850.
IWM...117.60 is mvg avg support and the downside pivot for another 1-1/2 dollar to 116.05
Bonds...
30 Yr. Bonds...136.12-14 is weekly resistance, a level that has started and stopped both breaks and rallies for full point moves in both directions over the past couple of weeks.
This is not an area to initiate a new position.
TLT...there is room for this to rally as high as 112.75 on a weekly chart, where it will either reject or start a new leg up.
FX...
AUD/USD & Kiwi are being bought on the crosses. Kiwi looks the better of the two from a technical perspective.
Commodities...
?Gold...??has held the weekly trend levels @ 1312. The daily chart shows sideways action with the upside breakout above 1342.
GDXJ...remains firm above 41.
OIL...102.70-102.95 is mvg avg and weekly support. This is an exit zone the first time down.
