    Trying to fix counter-trend entries

    Do you have a link for a description of Open Range? All I seem to be able to find are links to "free ebooks".

    Trying to fix counter-trend entries

    My strategy has a problem of buying on a downtrend and selling on an uptrend. It generally does a good job of picking the reversal points, but on a given move, half of my position (based on entry price) may be losing, and the other half winning. So, basically, I am entering/exiting too early...

    Know someone who likes Jim Cramer?

    One thing I've noticed, especially the more I learn, is that he seems to be a little wishy-washy about his methods...or at least with what he tells his viewers.

    I use vonage both for phone and fax and have never had a problem with it. The price drew me in, and the service has kept me from switching. I thought about grabbing some shares through their customer offering, but I'm happy now that I didn't... Maybe if it drops a little more, but with how...

    Looking for a cheap broker for a small-time trader

    I currently have an account with Firstrade that I was able to open with just a couple hundred $$ to start learning about the stock market. A year later, I have more cash, and I can make some bigger purchases, but I'm still only trading 25-40 share blocks in sub $10 stocks. My problem is that...
