    Please help -- shorting techniques

    You definitely spread out your "company exposure" by doing this, but a couple of things that I might suggest you consider that you may already have thought about are..... 1) Sector exposure (if they are all in the same industry...the diversification (for the most part) is futile. Consider...

    AMGN hit the 1.618 Fib extension level of the Bearish Butterfly pattern from the daily chart that I posted a couple days ago. If this pattern "fails" on the daily chart then we could see a good chance for this stock running up through the larger time frame resistance from 70 to 75. If it holds...

    This is my first thread on Elite Trader...Anyway, put together some interesting charts on AMGN. Thought it might drum up some conversation. Here is a summary of my thoughts on the attachment: 1) The last two major swing points July 2000 (Major high), and July 2002 Major low. Here we are in...

    Daytrading vs. fundamental analysis

    The debate of technical vs. fundamental will go on forever. I think both camps have positives and negatives. Personally, I'm in the technical camp....However, I think the trump card in this entire debate is Risk Management. Without proper risk controls in place neither system will ultimately...
