THU 12/11: EXTR – CALLING A FINAL SELL SIGNAL (1/3) @ $17.50 -17.2%

James F. Taulman BB - SIDEBAR, EXTR, PERFORMANCE, ST - CHART UPDATES, ST PERFORMANCE

3:48 PM – Stock has been struggling to recover from a sharp earnings sell-off. After developing an uptrend from support at the 200 DMA, it pulled back sharply today from a price area of resistance with an increase in volume. Too much bearish technical action.

SELL SIGNALS:
10/10 (1/3) @ $19.57 –7.4%
10/14 (1/3) @ $19.91 –5.8%
12/11 (FINAL 1/3) @ $17.50 –17.2%

OVERALL P/L:  –10.2%

ULTRA Trader’s Tip: Weak Stocks Cost You Twice

    • A stock that cannot recover from an earnings sell-off often signals fading institutional support.

    • Repeated failures at resistance confirm the absence of demand and increase risk.

    • Exiting laggards frees capital for stronger setups where momentum is truly building.

THU 10/9: EXTR – CALLING A NEW BUY SIGNAL (1/3) @ $21.14

James F. Taulman BB - SIDEBAR, EXTR, ST - CHART UPDATES

3:55 PM – We had a Swing run with this stock from mid-August to late-September, ending with a FINAL SELL SIGNAL on 9/24. Calling a NEW 1/3 BUY SIGNAL this afternoon as shares trade higher from the 10 DMA with an increase in volume and close above the 50 DMA of $20.82. Breaking out of a short-term downtrend — all bullish signs. BUY SIGNAL.

ULTRA Trader’s Tip: Don’t Ignore a Stock That Rebounds with Volume

  • Former winners that reclaim key moving averages often lead the next advance.

  • A bounce from the 10 or 50 DMA with volume shows renewed institutional interest.

  • Never underestimate a stock that refuses to stay down.

THU 8/21: SELLING: EXTR (ALL) P/L: -$179.36 -0.9%

James F. Taulman BB - SIDEBAR, EXTR, PERFORMANCE, ST - CHART UPDATES, ST PERFORMANCE

9:51 AM – First bought this stock on 8/12 and sold it the next day for a small profit. That proved to be a smart call as shares quickly faded back to their 10 DMA. On 8/18, the gains on rising volume and what looked like a push above the 10 DMA looked promising, prompting me to again start a position.

Since then, however, the 10 DMA has acted more as resistance, and with the line now starting to roll over, also a possible downtrend may be developing. I’m choosing to reduce margin and market exposure here, locking in what amounts to a very small net gain on the trade, while also working to preserve my solid portfolio performance of +48% over the past six months.

An ULTRA Trader’s Tip: Negative Reversal Warning

  • A negative reversal occurs when a stock makes a new intraday high but closes lower than the prior day’s close.
  • This pattern often signals short-term weakness and can precede a sell signal.

TUE 8/12: BUYING: EXTR (1/3) @ $20.30

James F. Taulman BB - SIDEBAR, EXTR, ST - CHART UPDATES

10:03 AM – Moving higher with an increase in volume. Personally, starting a 1/3 position here.

An ULTRA Trader’s Tip: Starting a 1/3 Position

  • Initiating with a 1/3 position allows flexibility to add if the trade moves in your favor.
  • Smaller initial size limits downside risk while still capturing early momentum.
  • This approach follows ULTRA’s staged entry system for controlled exposure.
