Amazon Prime Day | Online Shopping Deals
The deals for Amazon Prime Day have already started. It’s the Christmas in July sale to drive sales up mid year for Amazon. Last year the one day event was even bigger than Black Friday sales. However all of these deals are not available to everyone, they are exclusive to prime members which you can try for free for 30 days. There are some Deals exclusive to Alexa owners as well. You simply ask Alexa what deals are for you.
With Amazon as the biggest online retailer the sales that come from Amazon Prime Day Deals can create a ripple effect in the market. If the sales are higher than expected it could in turn cause Amazon to increase in price.
This increase in price would then in turn help the market to run up to newer highs. If you ever want to see what ETFs could be affected by the move of a single stock simpy go to ETFdb.com
The link above is set up for AMZN and you would quickly learn that there are 139 ETFS that could be affected by price action of AMZN. The SPY has 3.31% of its holdings in AMZN and QQQ has 10.45% of its holdings in AMZN. This information was taken from ETFdb.com. For the SPY that is the third largest holding and for QQQ the second largest holding besides MSFT. So the price action can affect the whole market.
Not only that but it can affect the rest of the Retail sector and the XRT or Retail ETF. Amazon has truly taken over the retail world and transformed it from an in store experience to an online shopping experience. It was one of Bezos visions over 20 years ago.
To me it is now Amazon shopping online first and then compare everywhere else. The interesting thing is after living in France and Italy 19 years ago to now in Canada the evolution on Amazon internationally is amazing. This is not just a simple mom and pop operation this is now global and will likely cause ripple effects in the Retail world internationally.
My tracking of Amazon quickly earned me the nickname of JungleJane in the Java Pit Trading Room. When you see what is going on with Amazon you now know how it can affect the SPY and QQQ index ETFs.
Enjoy those deals, and be prepared for this weeks announcements of the sales and how that could likely affect the price and the market overall.

Sell the News and Buy the Hype
Today I traded CTST CannTrust for a nice a nice 14% profit while taking my daughter for her final vaccines before School. So does it hold true that you should Sell the News and Buy the Hype. In this scenario I bought the bounce of an oversold stock.
For the general public it seems this becomes a self fulfilling prophecy. Why does this happen? The basic premise of Fear in trading.
The Fear of Losing Money
When people hear bad news such as a PCG Electric company announcing that with all the fires they might have to file for Bankruptcy. Over the next three weeks the investors became fearful and sold off their holdings and the stock dropped from 46 to 6. It was the fear that could have caused the initial sell off and then as stops were triggered it snowballed down the hill.
Oversold Buying Opportunities
This fearful selling can sometimes, but not always create a buying opportunity. If you have followed my blog I like seeing the stocks that have dropped outside of the Bollinger Bands and showing an oversold RSI. Sure enough this was CTST CannTrust today. In the past three days due to the news of selling illegal pot to a Danish Company according to health Canada.
This caused the stock to drop almost 50% in 3 days. This morning at open it dropped and then volume came in and the first candle had a big wick to the bottom. I jumped in at 2.85 and set a limit order to sell 75% at 3.26. Next week I’ll tell you why I chose that number. Sure enough it went to 3.27 and pulled back.
Buying the Rumor and Fear of Missing Out
When a company get hyped up that a buyout is happening the stock jumps up. Why does this happen? First the shorts usually exit when they hear the news because they become fearful that it is going to go up even more. Then you also have to people jumping in on this rise and they want to join into the momentum with a fear of missing out.
If this news is simply hype it can drop back down as quickly as it went up leaving those buyers at the top bag holding the stock. APC Anadarko Petroleum is a perfect example of this scenario. There were two instances of this when there was a bidding war for the buyout. First it jumped up to the 60s and then up to 70s.
Overbought Selling Opportunity
If this hype of a merger or a new contract turns out to be fake news. Then it creates an overbought selling opportunity for the stock. When these fake news gaps happen it creates a price outside the upper Bollinger Bands and a selloff back to the mid line. If you know the bell curve at all the Bollinger Bands outer ranges and the midline or typically 20 SMA becomes that midline.
With timing and patience opportunities appears
Trading is all about patience in finding the setups and letting the trade develop. I enjoy the oversold stocks and watching them find a bottom and retrace back some of the gap and profit. Its about creating a watch list and monitoring them, setting alerts and being away of the daily volume and daily movement for your entries and exits.

My Life as a Day Trader Mom
I have many women wonder how I trade as a mom of two under 5. I will not lie and say that it is not always easy. However if you want something bad enough, you figure out how to make it happen.
My husband and I have the belief that family comes first, so after reading Timothy Ferriss’ The 4-Hour Workweek I was determined to find a job to work online from anywhere.
It wasn’t easy at first. When I started in the daytrading world, I had a 6 month old and was trying to do too much. I was using self study when she was asleep and did not follow the rules. I blew through a $6,000 account in a matter of weeks. Why?
#1 I didn”t follow the rules. Rules like for kids growing up are there for a reason and to establish good habits. Top recommendation I would say for a new trader now is paper trade during the learning phase and save capital for when you know what you are doing.
Did I have help with the kids when learning to trade? In the beginning I did not and quickly learned that after the blow up and I should study until our daughter was able to go to daycare in the mornings for a couple of hours allowing me dedicated time to watch the market. While she was home I still did my homework of watching the market at open.
Why at open? If you are new to trading you will quickly learn that it is important to have liquidity to get in and out of the market and the most volatility a day traders friend is in the first hour of the market.
There is a lifetime worth of studying the market possible. All it takes to be profitable is find your strategy and follow your rules. Easy Right! It can sound easy, but if you are distracted in your brain with a sick child or a family issue then it can cloud your brain to distract you to break those rules.
As a good trading buddy of mine says Trading is Easy, It’s just Hard. We all know what we are supposed to do it’s the act of actually doing it that is hard. Just like we know what a healthy lifestyle of diet and exercise is for us, but it takes daily choices and discipline to follow that healthy lifestyle.
The same is true in trading. It takes daily discipline to make the right choices for your trades. Sorry I digressed.
So now as a mom trader, the mornings are all about being on a schedule to have the time to prep at my desk. I wake up roughy 6 am with the girls. We play, read, have pj dance parties and breakfast. I try to get them to daycare by 8 am in order to be back at my desk for 815-820. The more time I have to prep and plan out my trades the better.
Once at my desk I pull up my Trade Ideas Scanner which is an amazing scanning and alerting stock tool. That is where I find the stock to put on my watchlist. I am done at the latest by 915 and then have 15 min to center myself and join in the morning meeting in the Java Pit.
In a short 4 weeks. I’m excited to be able to give back and help new traders learn from the ground up in the Training Pit. If you want to join us in the Training Pit or Java Pit or even one on one training shoot me an email at Jane@darkpools.com and I will be happy to help you find your path as well.
Working from home is the best blessing. To be able to be present for my kiddos if they need me and work at night while they are sleeping or an hour in the morning. As the saying of Carpe Diem to Seize the Day, I want you to Carpe Profit and Seize those profits.
The new Training Pit Trading Room will be starting August 5th, and we are going to be covering things like how to use the software, how to place an order, How to read charts, How to understand Level 2 and so much more. There is a lifetime worth of information you can study in the market, but the basics are crucial. So If you or someone you know has an interest, then register here to be updated when the room is up and running.
We want to see you succeed and want to be your training wheels for you to have success.
I love hearing feedback from you. It makes my trading more personal and I like to hear how I can help you. If you have questions or comments you can contact me here or Twitter (@jane_yul), Instagram (missairplanejane), LinkedIn and Facebook (@sugarairplanejane). carpeprofit@gmail.com or YouTube
