That means if your TA works, your identified support breaks NEVER, you get NEVER stopped out and have a win rate of 100%? Sorry, but that's crap. Is a 77% win rate not enough?

Hey folks, I need your input on a trading approach: I'm using a simple LONG-only strategy on the daily time frame. I buy at support levels, sometimes during a significant pullback, and other times during a minor pullback after a resistance break to the upside. I always keep it simple (KISS)...

Well, that's indeed a good point. I don't want to invest in a FANG ETF because I don't want to pay management fees (I can do it on my own) and want to omit i.e. NFLX and AMZN. Just because of fundamental data (I like to invest more in AI developing companies). But I see - this idea isn't fully...

Maximize returns. So just seeking alpha. Not the objective as in a traditional 60:40 portfolio.

Hey folks, I'm thinking about building a simple investment portfolio to seek alpha. There I want to invest only in high performance tech stocks like GOOG and TSLA. When doing i.e. a 50:50 allocation in GOOG & TSLA, does rebalancing makes sense or not? I can recall a blog post somewhere, where...

For me it looks more this way. The short would be very short...

QQQ for the last 10 years. May looks not so bad. Rather "go away in September".

Hey, thanks for the answers so far, folks! My brokers let me do nearly everything - but at the moment, with my knowledge, it seems like a sure way to lose some money. ;) Ahhh. I see. This statement nails it down. Concrete: I've got a position in MSTR and am thinking about building a...

Hey folks, I'm trading several instruments since a long time, but have never traded options. I want to focus on this now because I want to generate cashflow without selling my stocks. So let's assume I've got 30 shares of XYZ at 1,000 USD. Price is currently at 1,200 USD. To generate cashflow...

Was there a glitch recently at the Tokyo Stock Exchange? Because these three stocks are looking a bit strange ...

What about just using what the day traders use on a higher timeframe? I.e. you can identify chart patters like head & shoulders, double-bottoms, cup&handle etc. also on a weekly or even monthly timeframe. Trading these formations should get you in the market for several months/years and the...

Agree. Entering in the trend direction (not in a pullback or at a support/resistance zone) might work and could give you more profit, BUT if the pullback sets in, it results in more losses. One needs to calculate for himself, but for me standing on the sideline and watching the price running...

According to the Dow theory (which you can observe in every financial instrument), markets move almost NEVER in one straight line up or down, instead every time in a trend-move followed by a (weaker) counter-move. When you're entering the market is up to you, but as I'm using leveraged...

Sure. But they probably don't use Google Trends. :D

Not really groundbreaking things but nice to read (resp. in my case: hear).

Interesting. Problems I see: - It is lagging behind - It is rather an indicator of what the "dumb money" or the "weak hands" ("the crowd") does. I guess the hedge funds and prop traders don't google their stocks before they buy ;)

Regarding the rectangle, you're right - my pennant was invalid. Regarding the buy order (doesn't matter if limit or stop) I would have loosed my money, because the daily candle opened WAY above the rectangle and dropped like a stone wayyyyy down. So this is really no asset, you normally like to...

Hahaha. Wouldn't my SL have been triggered a few days ago - my TP would have been exceeded today. What an f.cking volatile stock ... :confused:

BTW another player in the uranium sector (miner, developer and explorer) is PALADIN ENERGY (PDN). Slowly it's getting out of the penny stock area and technically it looks promising IMO.

Yes, I know. I meant only that the upper side got established by two highs. I question in general the validity of a line connecting 2 single points (as long as there are no points in between it's IMO not very reliable). But maybe for horizontal lines it's different ...
