Im not a huge fan of Cramer's TV show, but in all honesty, who could have known that BSC was going to be picked up for $2/Share? It's kind of like one of those conversations that go "The day Bear Sterns is bought for $2/share we've all got more to worry about than stocks" etc If anyone...

Even some of the best can screw up sometimes... Good book on the subject. Casual but good. http://www.amazon.com/When-Supertraders-Meet-Kryptonite-Collins/dp/0934380767

The republicans need to roll out a McCain/Romney ticket :D

gnome, Great post, but perhaps they were targeting an audience that has been shell shocked by their credit card companies tripling their interest to unthinkable amounts for missing a payment...possibly on another credit line entirely. There are scumbags who do take advantage of the system...

Could you define "quality picks and commentary." ?

Where is the moderation on this site? It is exhausting wading through such BS just to find a relevant post. Seriously:confused:

Update for 01-04-08 Just a quick post before I start my weekend plans... Next week I want to get into how important trade management and exit techniques are to my success. In my opinion so many private traders could ramp up their results by doing two things... Trading less and...

Hi increasenow, Yes, in a nutshell I look for reversal points using pivot points, candlestick patterns and Volume Spread Analysis. Well as far as testing is concerned I witnessed my mentor use this exact strategy over a year to make 400%. It was enough to convince me to start paper...
