seem here, I placed all my stops last night, but
none of them hit today
too bad amex oil was down today =)

exponential TSV never seem to be accurate for me =(
but you are correct on that point
|
put up a daily chart for GME
add BOP...RSI...MS...MA...OBV
and you will see them all going up VERY nicely
BUT add a TSV 18 and it looked like it jumped off the building =)
any thoughts?

"6)Set Stop Losses on each of the stocks in your portfolio of $13.00 below your Entry Price (So, the only reasons that you will ever exit one of your stock selections is if your stop loss has executed or you have made $5.00 or more profit on the selection)"
Correct me if I am reading the above stmt wrong, but
why would you take a risk of losing $13 for a $5 gain?...
not saying your strategy doesn't work because i certainly
didn't check it out myself, but to me "personally" the risk to reward ratio is uhhhh..... =)

I started trading at around 16, now 24.
after studying the market for a year and
placed virtual trades on etrade. I borrowed $3000
from my parents (no interest =P) at that time and was doing range trading.
It went well at first, I traded up to $5000
and returned $3000 back to my parents within a year and half. Then I thought I could easily earn a living on this and eventually became greedy. I didn't have money mgt and never put a stop loss. Then bull market came and you can imagine what happened first then after. So yes I did get burned eventually.
to sum it up
- You don't need lots of money to start investing; you have to go through the path anyways
- Stop-Loss, Stop-Loss, Stop-Loss; no matter how much you luck out, no $ mgt will burn you eventually.
- Admit your mistakes and record your trades.
One thing I do disagree with Bigblock is that you will regret mutual fund. Mutual Funds have active mgt, which you will never get with ETF. If you find Peter Lynch vs ETF, you go figure =)
ETFs are a good trading vehicle and I certainly use it as well, but my point is that they serve different purpose and should not consider one over another; utilize both.
And finally, a stock trader's almanac is useful.
