Technical Analysis showed that the shares of the company were under strong accumulation with aggressive buying pressure.

 

Fundamental Analysis of EOS's strong position in the defence and space sectors, coupled with its innovative product offerings, provided a solid foundation for growth with earnings and revenue forecast to grow by 93.6% and 12.5% per annum, respectively, indicating a positive outlook for the company's financial performance.

 

On the balance of all probabilities, technical and fundamental, a breakout above the $2.90 resistance was imminent, with a strong potential for immediate and substantial gains.

 

We alerted our subscribers:

1. An intraday Snapshot was sent by email sent to our subscribers as well as their executing brokers in real-time, to alert them to the stock and buy EOS if it broke above $2.90, with a stoploss at $2.58 and a profit target at $4.80.

The Snapshot was also posted on our website in the ASX Members Area in the Pending Trades Table.

2. An Analyst Report was uploaded shortly after on our website and also sent by email to our subscribers with the complete reasons for the trade suggestion including how to plan and manage the trade if entered into.

Profit Calculations:

A straightforward calculation for the return in EOS as follows -

Entry Price

Price bought = $2.91 per share

Exit Price

Price sold = $3.69 per share

Return (P/L)

$3.69 minus $2.91 = 78 cents per share.

0.78 divided by 2.91 = 0.268 or 26.8% return on investment.

On a position size of just $10,000, this trade suggestion would have delivered the trader a gain of 26.8% return or $2,680*

*before commission charged by your broker or trading platform provider.

 

Position Sizing, Risk Control and Money Management:

Tradesignals encourages good money management and trade size disciplines. i.e. controlled stop-loss exit points coupled with a sensible number of lots traded that won't break the trading bank.

To assist the trader, Tradesignals encourages subscribers to make us of the Tradesignals Position Size and Margin Calculator by clicking here.

NOTE: Trading can involve substantial risk. It is therefore imperative to keep position sizing at a manageable level to ensure drawdowns on any consecutive losses can be sustained by a trading account. Part of this money management strategy involves implementation of a strict stop loss discipline.

 

Types of orders Tradesignals use for entries and exits: 

1. Buy on Stop Orders outside of market hours

2. Sell Short on Stop Orders outside of market hours

3. Snapshots during live market hours.

4. Buy At Market or Sell At Market - live or outside of market hours.

Mechanics:

Live Trades: All triggered trades, amendments to stop levels and set exit limits are communicated on our website and sent to you via email during our update window from 6:00 PM to 9:30 AM AEST.  This will cover all live trades overnight on offshore markets such as the Nasdaq for profit-taking or stop-loss levels.

 

Pending Trades: These are trades we are suggesting as likely possibilities that have not triggered into a live trade. Some pending trades never 'trigger' to become live trades and are removed from the Tradesignals 'pending' list of potential trades. All changes and amendments will be updated via email and on our website between 8.00 am to 7:30 pm. AEST.  This includes any trade suggestions, which are removed and are no longer valid.

 

A pending trade may trigger into a live trade (overnight). In this instance any conditions stated in the suggestion at the beginning will be valid until otherwise notified. Subsequently, it will then be treated in the same way as other 'live' trades.

 

Note: For International markets, trades (entries and exits may occur) during the night session and an email will not be sent to notify when these prices are hit (since they can be entered into the system with your broker beforehand). In trading, it is important to set the exit points. Before making any trade, you need to set two trading orders that will be used as exit points, one for selling your shares when you reach a certain profit, and the other to sell in order to cut your losses.

 

Obviously, Limit (profit exit) and Stop trading (stop-loss exit) orders should be set correctly, otherwise the trade will not be executed.  Once you have chosen the trigger price you wish to trade from the Tradesignals Analyst Report or from Tradesignals simple email trade suggestion alerts, you can elect to take different exit points to Tradesignals. Every trader's risk profile (risk they are willing to take) is different. If you do choose to take different exit points, make sure you follow the rules for placing limit and stop trading orders as detailed  below.

 

 

Examples of Correct Stop and Limit Trading Orders:
  • If you are buying shares, it means you are investing in a long position. In this case, you will set a sell limit above the current price, so if the price rises, you will collect the profit you've accumulated. You will also select a stop loss in the long position, so if the price drops you will cut your losses short.

  • If you are selling short, it means you are looking to capitalise on the fall of a share price. You will set buy limit order below the current price, so you can take profits if the price keeps dropping. You will also select a stop loss in the short position, so if the price rises you will cut your losses short by buying back or “covering” the position.
