Interesting....thanks for the advice AAA.....good luck trading!

But the problem with that is....you will be selling below your stop (into demand), AND at a price that you would be a buyer.....is that truely the best strategy? thanks for the reply

Every so often I’ll be holding a swing trade over night, and it is hit with some bad news after the bell, causing the stock to gap down (BELOW MY MENTAL STOP PRICE) in after hours, and also (below my mental stop) at the open the following day. But it will either open or show some...

$Cost$ Great Journal. Probably my favorite on ET.....I've never met another swing trader that can trade that many positions (and size) on a daily basis.....just from looking at your spread sheets every few days i got a few questions for you regarding your trading strategy.... Do you ever...

Happy Birthday $Cost$.....Great Journal!....probably one of the best on ET (my favorite one to read at least). As for ERTS....it had some nice volume today, but you might see resistance at the 50day (53.90)....i wouldnt be a buyer until that is taken out on nice volume, then make a mental...

Two for the Money.....movies alright, but some good quotes.... "there's no such thing as pushing it too far, you push everything as far as you can; you push until it starts pushing back, and then you push some god damn more" "winning is a funny thing, it's one of those rare commodities on...

you can also get money/income from dividends though...which comes from the companies profit.....so it's not totally a "zero sum game" "money isnt made or lost, its simply transfered from one perception to another....theres a winner and a loser, its a zero sum game" ~ Gekko - Wall Street

The Weekly Chart of HCC look VERY good....good luck with that trade....so what is your time frame for your swing trades? great journal....keep it up

just by looking at the chart.... http://stockcharts.com/def/servlet/SC.web?c=FORD,uu[w,a]dacayyay[de][pb50!b200][vc60][iUb14!La12,26,9]&pref=G I'd be short if it falls below $8.50, or set up a long position if it breaks above the 50 day MA.....or, if your long right now, place a stop just...

i'm still bullish on oil and energy stocks.....i'm waiting for most of the big name energy stocks (VLO, HAL, OIH...)to hit their 50day moving average, then i'll be buying again

Can you simply just "go down to the floor"? I find that hard to believe

good trade! great journal also, keep it up

If it makes you feel any better, i took a big hit today (weds) on my energy stocks (specifically VLO & XOM - got stopped out on both, gave back most of my gains from the past 5 sessions).....today i'm pissed, tomorrow i'll get a laugh about it......its a game of ups and downs, you win some, and...
