Weekly Trade Setup: Buy last weeks fridays closing price or fridays low and hold the position till the end of the week or prior weeks high

So either exit the long position at prior weeks high or simply hold the position till friday (or sell half at prior weeks high):

Trading Plan: Buying on bullish markets

If a market is in an uptrend (daily above 50 SMA) its profitable to buy on prior days low price and holding the position till the end of the week, as well as buying at any day above the high of the prior two days.

Trading Plan: 50 day moving average as guideline and entry on prior weeks 50%

Besides looking at the COT data and the trendspotter on barchart.com

I usually enter swing trades if the price is above or below 50 day moving average after a trendlinebreak

To reduce the risk on the entry (prior week closed above / below 50 day moving average) I try to enter at 50% of the prior weeks range:
