    some good news... the nyse website has all nyse listed companies categorized by icb. i checked a few nyse listings by subsector against the same dow jones index subsector components, and there are many more stocks listed on the nyse’s icb breakdown than what appears in the dow jones index...

    stock database with sector

    I looked into that too, I never found the exact answer... but I did find a bunch of articles about the adoption of icb, it looks like all the big u.s. exchanges and financial publications use it now, and internationally too. I think the dow jones indexes only use a representative sample of a...

    Stockcharts.com or Desktop Software?

    I did most of my early exploration and paper trading on stockcharts.com, but trading in real time with any website like that really isn’t a serious option. You might be able to work it out if you are the type of trader who enters a few bracket orders and walks away, maybe --- but if you’re...

    T/A won't make sense to me until I understand this:

    John yes, sort of, you might get a well defined uptrend on a 30 minute chart, but it might just be a small advance within a downtrend on the daily chart... and when the daily chart hits daily resistance, you might get a double top on the 30 minute chart before the daily chart eventually rolls...

    Trailing Stops

    There are a lot more automatic-type options than just using tailing stops. Like you could use bracket orders where you have a sell-limit order up at your target, and a sell-stop down at your stop loss, and both would be set up to cancel the other if executed, or at least decrease the size of the...
