I use stockfetcher.com and a few very simple filters to give me a good list every day

sure, it's usually based a lot on gut feel (I scan through a multitude of charts and get a "feeling" about certain ones). This most likely comes from experience and the amount of charts I have looked at, about 20-30 a day, for about a year. I'll try to nail down to specific aspects that appeal...

Precisely, well said. It's not a matter of letting profits run and cutting losses short (although if you can consistently do so, you'll be profitable in the long run), but moving with the herd. The best money will be made by learning to gauge the herd, one must stay with it during strong...

really? since when are we here to make money? do you make money by posting on ET? I certainly don't. I am profitable, and have been for close to a year now, the reason why I hang around ET is to continue my education as a trader and maybe help others in the process. If you would not like to...

I'm profitable, I'm not looking for a way to make money :) And I know why we THINK 90% lose (because they don't follow a method or don't have a method) but I have very strong reason to believe this is only a small part of the reason (I for one trade with almost no method and no rules, while...

Was thinking about this over the last few days and thought this expirement might work well on ET. Basically, I'm looking to investigate a number of things, one of them is that 90-95% (or more) of people fail in futures trading, the rest make good money. The basic idea of the experiment is that I...

ok, have a minute to do an update lol, crazy break. Got out of CORV for a loss, got a partial on WBR today, 3 cents on about 2200 Play for tomorrow is SVVS at 2.52 As soon as I have time I'll go back to my stockstalker paper trades, probably next week 2/19/04 Current Equity...

nas has been bouncing between 25 and 50 sma, today it opened above 25 and closed just a bit above 50. I'm still mid-term bullish, today was an over-reaction; as you pointed out it may be attributed to options expiration. I will be going long tomorrow, would have placed a short position if today...

Got out of corv at 1.98, getting into WBR now at 1.08. I'm on break right now so not much time for decent updates, I'll do it all after break is over.

IWM chart

QQQ chart

Going to do another update here, just got out of my QQQ calls at a small profit, pretty much breakeven, here's why. DJIA- the recent push to new highs has occured on decreasing volume. To further the case of a continued bull market we would need a high volume break out to new highs. QQQ-...

Ameritrade and friends allows you to trade them

Some did, not nearly all.

You sir, are an idiot :) Study history, prior to late 80's early 90's, NO traders sat in front of computers (since they didn't have them) all day watching the markets. Don't tell me that if you are not watching the markets during the day you are not a real trader, that's a joke. Do you want to...

What Grizzly is getting at is that the shorter the time frame the more money you can make, but this doesn't work very well in practice because it's quite impossible to capture all the little moves. Maximum return can be measured in surface area of the path of price, the lower the time frame the...

Nice weekend, play for tuesday is CORV, @ 2.11. BUY 1657 shares of CORV, Corvis Corporation at LIMIT of 2.11 DAY Still have a fairly large long position in QQQ march calls, it just moved in the red (after an add on thursday) on friday, will probably take off half of it if the bull move...

You should be able to easily do this in tradestation or wealth lab

Who needs a method? :) It's a game of emotions, if you have a handle on your emotions then you're golden

Im on a laptop with a gfx card that is effectively a Radeon 7000 and I use a second monitor all the time, works fine.
