Remember that the market is the market. What's in your account determines
if things are bullish or bearish.
(wasn't there a post somewhere about Netfilx going up? Cant happen in a bear
correct?)
Thanks

Yes you can and it is simply called "re-pricing". The entire country is undergoing this right now.

Just take a good look at the U.S. Dollar. Let me ask you are you better off now then you were 5 years ago? I think not as your money does not travel near as far. The FED is short the USD each time he drops the rates. In fact many foreigners have been unloading USD as they realize it is about worthless. Oh the FED simply runs the printing presses and in case you did not know this devalues your hard earned USD.
In fact we are not being told the truth.....>>>> Believe what you want but the real INFLATION rate is around 15%>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> IMAGINE THAT!!!

Money management is one of the key ingredients for long-term survival in this game. It is possible to have a string of losses in a row. I’m never impressed with the guy who has a 10K account and moves it to 20K in a month. This tells me he is a gunslinger and with time he will run into the wall at full speed. One of the most overlooked aspects in trading is money management and this has forced many to leave the game. I also think many get indicator happy. They have 15,000 indicators all turned on looking for this hook and that hook. They really don’t even look at the price chart. I’m not against indicators but I do believe what needs to be known is in the price chart… If you have not looked into a money management plan I’d highly suggest this as I think it is better to grow your account over time…

I need some help in trying to figure out this formula.. Here are the parameters.
Subtract the closing price 10 days ago from the last closing price.
M=V-V10
Thank you

A trader using a volatility stop lowers the amount of shares he would buy confident he is controlling risk.
Not aware he is also limiting his profit if he is correct.
I think its much better to try and attack risk from the reward side of the ledger. Then to attack it from the risk side.
With position sizing a bad trader will still lose it will just be a slower process.
Good Luck
Diceman, I have to disagree with you again because if the ATR is not high then you buy more shares with the same risk. I think my example of BBY has you confused. Anyway the point of PS/MM is important and it needs to be thought out well before one just jumps in…most only look at finding the perfect entry.
Hey many ways one can control PS/MM and the more examples the better.

QUOTE (diceman) It should be said as a reminder that volatility (ATR) and
position sizing are not linked. They are two seperate items.
Position sizing can be used with any stop method were you know your stop price ahead of time.
Lets say from the numbers above you can withstand $500
risk. You want to buy a stock at 30.15 and you plan to use a 7 percent fixed stop.
30.15 X .93 = 28.04 risk = 30.15-28.04 = 2.11
500/2.11 = 234 shares
Most things Ive read recommend a 2% position risk but,
I would recommend new traders goes as low as possible
1% or .5%
New traders should try to learn and keep it as cheap as possible.
Good Luck
Diceman, I have to disagree with your statement regarding Volatility ATR and position sizing are not linked.
One using this method I mentioned is sizing your position off the ATR. Using this method you do not have a fixed percentage as a stop because each trade will give you different stop value. Your risk will remain the same but your number of shares you buy will be based off the ATR. This is simply sizing your portfolio using Volatility. If one looks into this simple method I’m sure you might be surprised at how simple it really is.
