April 12th Swing Watch List

$AKS – A nice bull flag and a previous watch lister, but never a trade. Looking for a starter over 4.35 with an add over 4.50. This is super liquid and a relatively small ATR, but with big potential. Stop will be 4.14.

$KRO – Room here is 6.75 and then 7.25. Capable of big moves when relative volume comes in. Long will be over 6.21, stop 6.00.

$UA  – On short watch for a breakdown under all the EMAs after piercing them on Monday. Short entry is under 40.85, stop 41.35. Room here is to 38.80s and then 35.
