    Is it possible for a new trader to survive in this market

    I think every "market" is impossible for most newbies and not so newbies too, thats why you will always hear more bitching and moaning than anything else. If you have a plan stick to it, if you dont have one, get one. Brandon

    Church and Dwight, Inc (CHD). One of the things that is most important as a trader is to think work with basic concepts and build your trading program out from that. In the case of CHD we are working with two core concepts, strong gaps, and resting. On May 6th CHD experienced a strong break away...
