MON 9/22: Z – SELLLING (ALL) P/L: -$436.21 -4.4%

1:32 PM – Shares quickly fell to just above the 50 DMA this morning. Now, are clearly breaking below. I’m out.

ULTRA Trader’s Tip: Respect the 50 DMA

  • The 50-day moving average is a key line of intermediate support.

  • When a stock slices through it on above-average volume, that’s often a sign institutional demand is drying up.

  • Exiting quickly keeps you from riding a potential downtrend.

ULTRA Trader’s Tip: The Power of Confirmation

  • A second entry signals the trade is behaving as expected.
  • When a stock respects the 10 DMA and advances on strong volume, it confirms institutional support.
  • These confirmations allow us to press the advantage while still managing risk.

THU 8/14: BUYING: Z (1/3) @ $85.19

3:35 PM – Picking up a 1/3 position in Zillow (Z) as shares advance from the 10 DMA ($82.67) with a +86% surge in volume — a clear BUY SIGNAL.

BUY DATE: 8/14

BUY PRICE: $85.19

% P/L: +0.1%

An ULTRA Trader’s Tip: Volume Confirmation Matters

  • A breakout or rebound backed by significantly higher-than-average volume greatly increases the probability of follow-through.
  • Look for at least 50% above average daily volume when confirming a BUY SIGNAL.
  • This volume surge signals institutional interest, which can sustain momentum.
