    Online Trading Academy

    I went through the 7 day Pro trader classes in Texas, and I've attended several other of their events I do recommend them (professional education, that does not pretend trading is easy, or give you a special indicator, or tell you which stock to trade) Ask anything you like and I will...

    Why the early morning rally

    I agree with Mr R. Rasolnikov Otherwise (and please permit me to use some redneck logic here) Let's assume a trader knew every bit of news in the world - How would he / she trade it? Or asked another way How could a trader, who knew every bit of news in the world, anticipate...

    time & sales/reading the tape

    why scale out

    IMHO I believe by scaling in and out a person can actually get to a point in the day where they are trading on free (the mkt's) money And once this person does this - they will find it a very liberating experience (stree and emotionally speaking) I agree this may be hard with the moves...

    How to tell what price a stock is going to open at

    fwiw I sometimes use something similar but not nearly as sophisticated - for a high probability set up 1.) identify support and resistance (aka demand and supply) 2.) opening price gaps into these areas – fade it The other thing I thought of on the drive home – use a 1...
