Instead of transitioning from a full time and developed career, folks should try to get a subscription to some good newletters like Motley Fool, Zacks and throw them to their brokers or spouse or children to pull the trades as the signals come through. 14-15% average return a year would be...

Nice post Gary. It always helps to explore new research ideas. Do you have a website on this research. Merry Christmas !!

One needs to be advanced into coding in order to be a good valuable TA in an investment firm. Otherwise, like several have said above, TA is considered a light infantry on the battlefield of trading. Fundamental Analysis has the value despite 90% of the fund managers not being able to beat...

A good trade is where you stuck to your plans. Does not mean if you won or lost on that trade.

With today's technology you can trade all 5 days while working full time, ofcourse a desk job. just have several alerts on your platform to help you take a glimpse on the markets. Ofcourse, run a paper trading course for few months atleast to insure it is operationally convenient atleast.

Why not open an account with IB and keep the funds in USD and then trade the ETFs. TD Ameritrade has very high fees per trade vrs the Interactive Brokers.

Buddy I do not know non linear spread modelling or similar fancy stuff, but if this guy is right, a time has come when trade positions will not be merely taken on fundamental or technical variables but strange and exotic facts like how many folks in starbucks order a type of coffee on Mondays...

SPY to 240 and then some correction.

Only idea of Trump I like is that of the "smaller government". He should lay off 10% of government workforce right away. Then turn around and implement 10% salary cuts across the board. Then turn around and bring the benefits and perks in line with the private sector employees. Ex...

Bold plans, Low on practicality, no respect for debt monster, plans to print money, cause inflation and erode the savings of the middle class Americans. Trump already has 4 bankruptcies tatooed on his "big size rear end". This man piles the debt, makes merry and splurges and then turns...

Increase in service jobs is a sign of economic growth, unemployment is 4.6% lowest since 2007. Decrease in manufacturing jobs is "mostly" attributed to more automation in the factories and plants. This is going to increase with Robotics ready to pretty much "invade" the workforce ranks...

Not sure means "when in doubt then stay out". SPY is due for correction but as to how far does GOOGL follow is the question. Paper trading even when actively into "real money" is essential. Markets are tough tough business, got to test them with calls at every point and make a journal of...

It is also likely GOOGL can come down to $720 and reverse back to go up making new highs. Depends on how the general market SPY does. I am anticipating a down move to $195 area. For the real money, given "not sure" type scenario, I would not take any position in Googl as of now. Would just...

Agree with your Goog downside but would give it a little more down than $680. Regarding AMZN, how does $400 sound? I would not be long AMZN here at this moment. Markets are at a critical juncture, very toppish IMHO.

However, if forex markets are being traded then stops are absolutely necessary as these markets can more faster than you can move the computer mouse.

Mr. Trumpets is all yap yap and the stupid public bought it. He has no real or practical agenda to bring US out of the financial mess. He will spend alot on infrastructure programs financed by printing more money and say that he has created lots of jobs. He will further spend more on defense...

Inter connectedness is one thing but is also not guaranteed. That's why many a times strong solid structures, price patterns etc. suddenly crumble and market goes in the other direction. My conclusion is that markets are both systematic and random. Hence one cannot win all the time. Takes...

Mr. Trumpets should force the Trillions in offshore accounts held by US companies and SuperRich familes to be brought back to the US............to create jobs in infrastructure, R&D and investment into other growth areas. Ofcourse more importantly, use a chunk to pay off the national debt and...

Germany under Hitler in WWII is a good example of how one man can ruin a good competent organization. After the battle of Moscow, another idiot boss Stalin took a back seat to military matters and tide turned decisively in the favor of Soviets. This idiot was the main reason behind the Purge of...

On the whole it looks like Trump will try to create jobs by spending on the infrastructure. How will he pay for it? printing money ofcourse. He does not have any practical plans on how he will bring jobs back from China and Asia. He needs to cut government, cut defense, charge EU for NATO...
