 What's up everybody, it's Stas here and in this video I'm going to be sharing with you all three stocks that I'm looking to swing trade right now in the month of October, heading into the month of November in 2019. And when you're swing trading in the stock market, the key is to buy low and to sell high if you're looking to buy actual shares. If you're looking to short a stock, maybe swing trade put options, that's a completely different philosophy. We're strictly talking about buying and holding shares here, which again, I'm personally looking to buy at a dip and then really sell as the stock continues the uptrend and breaks out.

So as you can tell, the first stock that I'm looking to swing trade here is ticker symbol T, also known as AT&T. And a quick disclaimer guys, don't just buy these based off of my opinion. You have to do your own research, understand the risk involved with these stocks and understand whether or not it fits your personal criteria and your philosophy when it comes to trading in the stock market. And also, all of these companies that I'm going to be talking about in this video are reporting earnings and that's also a big thing to keep an eye out for. Me personally, I don't like buying stocks before earnings. I like getting in and out before earnings and buying after, right? And that's kind of what I'm looking to do with a lot of these stocks. But just keep that in mind because earnings, guidance, the numbers they actually report in terms of their earnings report, these companies that is, right? This can heavily fluctuate whether the stock is going to go up or whether or not it's going to go down, right? It fluctuates the stock. So AT&T here, they report earnings on the 28th of this month. So that's in 10 days. So we do have time to hop in and out here of AT&T before these earnings, especially with what I'm seeing here on these technicals. And let me break it down for you guys, right? I said a couple of minutes ago, the key when swing trading is buying low and selling high after the stock continues the breakout or as it's breaking out, right? And right now we're seeing AT&T is doing just that, just that, right? And that is, it's breaking out. You can see here $38 is a clear resistance, roughly $38.90 up to around $38 bucks here on AT&T, right? We topped out here once, twice, three times, four times, five times. We were struggling there this morning. But now that we're breaking out of that resistance, that's extremely bullish. And I'm thinking that AT&T is now going to push to fill the gap up here to $39.50 to around $40 bucks. And how did I get that $49.50, $40 bucks level? Well, if we zoom out a bit here, let's go to the three-year one-week chart. You guys can see actually that we've been rejected three separate times at around that $39.50-ish level back in 2017, heading into the year of 2018. So that makes this level a very strong resistance. So all in all, at this point, guys, AT&T, to put it in brief terms, it's breaking above $38, which is very, very bullish. And now it's looking to fill the gap up to $39.50. And another important thing to keep in mind when swing trading is how much risk is involved and how much reward is involved with particular trades. Well, in this one, from $38 up to the resistance where we would ideally sell, that's about a 3% profit margin. And where I would probably cut losses on AT&T is if it were to break below $38. So from where it is right now, down to about $38, that's around a .5 to a .6 risk in terms of how much you can lose on your position. So about a .5, .6% risk versus a 3% to 4% reward, that is pretty good in my personal opinion. So AT&T is the first one that I'm watching. Ideally, I'd sell up here. If we even break above that, that would be probably a sign to hold it even up to these high levels at about $40, which at this point would offer even more margin right from down here where we are now up to $40, $41. That's going to be around 6%. So just keep an eye on these guys. AT&T is looking very, very good. Just keep an eye on these levels and the technicals that I'm talking about here. The second stock is going to be ABV, ticker symbol ABBV. And this is actually looking very similar to AT&T. We're breaking above a resistance and we're entering into a new channel where from where we are now at about $76, $77, up to the resistance of this channel, that's about a 6.25% profit margin. And mind you, just like AT&T, ABV is reporting earnings here in the next couple of days. I think they're on the 1st of November, so they actually have a bit more time than AT&T. So the idea here, the goal here would be to maybe swing trade this, get out before earnings, see what earnings does, numbers, guidance, all that good stuff. Then maybe enter back in if the earnings are good, if their earnings are good, if the guidance is good, and if the stock is positively reacting to those earnings, which is very important. But as of now, we're breaking a critical level. This is a level where we kind of triple bottomed here a couple of months ago back in April to May into June of 2019. And once we broke that triple bottom, that made this level a strong resistance. We tried to rally back up a couple months ago back in July. We ended up failing, ran all the way down to about 62 bucks. We tried to pop up and test that same 76 buck level on the 1st of October, failed again. And now we tested it yet again yesterday heading into today, right? And now we're getting the breakout, which just like AT&T is extremely bullish here on Abvy. So risk reward, about 6%, we saw that to the upside, to the downside here, about 0.7% to around 1%, right? And typically, I'm looking to cut losses whenever my swing trades break critical resistances. And honestly, whenever they get below really 1.5% in the red or lower, because that's where I'm typically keeping my stop loss when I am swing trading. And when I'm up on a position, I'm typically keeping a trailing stop loss to protect those profits. So let's say if I'm up 5%, 6%, I don't have a trailing stop loss. I'd probably get wiped out if this were to dump. But if I had a trailing stop loss, I was up 5%, 6%. And let's say the trailing stop loss was set at like half a percent or something, then this falls half a percent. Obviously, it would sell my position and I would lock in those profits. So that's really just a mechanism of protecting your profits. And again, that's what I would do if I was in at this point, or not really in at this point, if I was seeing a good amount of profits at this point, right? That's what I would do. So Abvy, that's what I'm looking at. It's in a new channel looking very, very good right now. Very swing tradeable in my opinion. And the last one, which is another one that I've been talking about a lot on the channel, is Procter and Gamble ticker symbol PG. And if we're just looking at Procter and Gamble here on the 4-hour chart, it's clear that it's on an uptrend, right? And it's clear also that we broke that main support level, which was the 180SMA that was holding this uptrend intact. So ever since we've fallen beneath that, you know, Procter and Gamble has been a bit bearish. We're seeing the moving averages acting as resistances rather than support levels, right? We're seeing a bearish cross here, the 50SMA crossing below the 180SMA. And we really haven't seen any upside push here until now, right? Now we're starting to see some support at around 116, 117. And we're starting to see a bit of a breakout here to the upside. You can maybe say this is a double bottom, triple bottom. If you're counting this one, twice, and then three times today, now that we're breaking up. You know, I guess that could be a triple bottom here. But overall, guys, the trend is looking like it's slowly starting to push up. Obviously, we have earnings here, and really, actually, I think this is the soonest out of the three. Yeah, it's on the 22nd of October, so this can heavily fluctuate the stock up or down. So for me on PG at this point, I'm probably going to wait until after earnings, since earnings will be, I'm guessing, on Tuesday, which is the 22nd. So I'm going to wait until after that, see what they report, see how guidance is, EPS revenue, all that good stuff. But either way, I think this one's going to offer some good margin, right? Okay, 118, if we enter it hypothetically here, up to around 125, that's about a 5-6% margin of profit. And I would definitely break or cut losses if this were to break 116, because this is just a critical level of support, guys, right? It was an old resistance. It was a support back in August as well. You know, it's just a very, very strong key level. And if we were to break there, that's where I'd cut. And from where we are now, down to about 116, that's about a .6, .7 potential downside here in terms of the risk. So the reward heavily outweighs the risk right now in Procter and Gamble. And if we zoom out a bit, let's say to the three-year one-week chart, what I noticed is maybe let's go to the one-year one-day better. Yep, this is better. What I noticed is if I draw this little uptrend here, guys, you can see that this is a bounce point for Procter and Gamble on this one-year one-day chart. So that is interesting if you guys do look at these long, long-term charts. Well, not extremely long, but longer than the usual timeframes that I talk about on this channel. This is definitely pretty interesting in my opinion, right? We could end up holding this and popping, you know, if these earnings are good especially. So overall, guys, those are three stocks that I'm looking to swing trade right now in October heading into November. And again, don't just buy these. Don't just swing trade these based off of my opinion. You have to understand that they're reporting earnings. You have to understand these earnings and these companies for yourself before swing trading them. Because let's be honest, the whole idea is to become a self-sufficient trader and investor in the stock market. You don't want to have to go to the internet to really see other people's opinions before forming your own. You have to have the tools to form your own first. And then, sure, go on YouTube, go on the internet, see what other people are thinking, and then that's how you can collaborate. And then maybe build on your own skill set with other people's skills that you get from really just looking at what they're doing and kind of adapting what they're doing in a way, right? So that's super, super important. And other than that, that's pretty much it for this video. If you enjoy the video, feel free to go down below, hit that like button.
