    They say teaching is the best way to master your craft

    Nothing wrong with the teaching process. Like leading a horse to water. You can take the horse to water. Cannot force the horse to drink the water. She enjoys seeng the profitable trades but, too lazy and would not exert even a little effort. Take the trading log. She has promised to do it, to...

    They say teaching is the best way to master your craft

    "Teaching someone to trade is the hardest thing to do." You burn up hours upon hours but the student never listens, is hard headed and butts head with you. How do I know? I am still trying to mentor my friend. Unfortunately, she will not do what needs to be done. She follows my trades and now...

    Trading Platforms

    They have multiple lists you can use as your watchlist. I review and pick the ones I like the stockchart, usually stocks trending up or down strongly. I use Finviz.com too to compile other lists. Not going to trade each and every stock in the list but, narrow it down further, based on my...

    Economic Sanctions as a Weapon

    It is getting worst on the inflation front in the US and Europe. Further escalation on the war front, can only worsen the inflation in the US and Europe. The plan for Poland to supply some of its jets to Ukraine could start a NATO vs Russia confrontation. War mongers in Congress and cable tv...

    Trading Platforms

    Since, I don't day trade, I find I like that I can enlarge the stockcharts where my eyes can more clearly see it. We reach the point that the older you are, the hardest it is to look at small print. The trends, support and resistance levels, candlestick patterns, etc. Stockcharts has a rating...

    Trading Plan

    KGT, if I may suggest Finviz.com (free screener). Look for the strongest sectors to find stocks to trade. That would be where the smart monies are flowing to. Energy is the sector that is very strong now. Oil and Oil Exploration should be your focus. Look for those stocks trending up very...

    Trading Platforms

    I also, have ThinkorSwim as my trading application which I think is good enough for trading. Also, have stockcharts to more closely, look at stockcharts of individual stocks. Have a subscription to IBD to get list of stocks already, screened as to fundamentals. Finviz.com is free too and can...

    Economic Sanctions as a Weapon

    It is already over $5 a gallon in some states. My cousin paid close to $6 a gallon in California just yesterday. US still buying Russian oil as well as Europe. Keep dreaming. In 3 months time, maybe, sooner US and Europe will have hyperinflation then, all bets are off. One of us is going to be...

    Options.,... Argh... no more!!

    We are in the minority here which is fine. There are probably, 1,000 ways to make monies in the stockmarket. At the end of the day, trading is playing the percentages. If you have a trading edge, you should make monies after 500, 1,000 or 5,000 trades. The number does not matter. If you do not...

    Economic Sanctions as a Weapon

    I am only talking about the huge negative economic effects in the US and Europe of these sanctions. Do you live in the US or Europe? If you do, you will find out soon enough. I do not think it will take 3 months for hyperinflation and oil to skyrocket as well as commodity prices. You call it...

    WW III

    Some neocon war mongers including, ex-US generals and that RINO idiot, Adam Kinzinger urging the US to put up a no-fly zone. Do they really think Russia will ignore US F-35 fighter jets flying the skies over Ukraine? S-400 Anti-Aircraft missiles already deployed in Ukraine, 75 Russian fighter...

    Economic Sanctions as a Weapon

    Russia to hurt the US and Europe only need to spike oil and commodity prices. Why do you think even the US and Europe continue to buy Russian oil and natural gas? They know that if that 10-14% Russian share of the oil market were to totally vanish, oil will spike thru levels unheard of. Not sure...

    Economic Sanctions as a Weapon

    Physical gold can be bartered for other goods you need from other friendly, countries. Russia is not going to be trading with US and European countries for a while. US and European companies with Russia as customer will also, lose that business resulting in mass layoffs. European countries have...

    Economic Sanctions as a Weapon

    What Putin messed up on is trusting the US financial system to give him access to Russia's huge reserves of $630 billion which the US, of course froze entirely. Had he had most of those monies in gold or maybe, some of it in rare earth minerals (stockpiled), the US and Europe would have had a...

    Economic Sanctions as a Weapon

    I think the obvious, example would be North Korea? US sanctions are still even now on North Korea, although, they have not attacked any civilians, although, they sunk a South Korean warship by ramming it if I recall correctly. The sanctions were imposed to dissuade Kim Jong Il then, now Kim Jong...

    Long Crude!

    It is a catch 22 with US and Europe sanctioning Russian oil and gas. Here is an article on why the US and Europe are refusing to sanction Russia's oil and gas. They need it so much. https://www.yahoo.com/finance/news/russian-oil-has-europe-in-stranglehold-bill-browder-185738259.html

    Economic Sanctions as a Weapon

    One more thing not discussed is the unintended consequences of other countries being affected by the trade sanctions on Russia. These countries will suffer from the collateral damage to their own economies thru no fault of their own.

    Analysts

    I don't believe in analysts. What they tell you and make public is so late news. That is designed to suck in retail traders while, the big boys (brokers, banks, hedge funds, mutual funds) have long taken positions. Stockcharts tell you what you need to know. I get into positions based on what I...

    Long Crude!

    Oil and commodities is where there is a lot of monies to be made on still. I sold some long positions to lessen my risk and lock in gains. Also, believe, a short term pullback in oil and commodities can happen due to profit taking. Longer term, I am still bullish in oil and commodities. Ukraine...
