@MarkBrown thanks for sharing you opinion. Much appreciated :thumbsup: Thanks nt

Adding tipranks to the list which somewhat reminds gurufocus as it allows following what analysts are doing h**ps://tipranks.com/ Thanks nt

Anyone able to contribute information to compare these sites: h**ps://gurufocus.com/ h**ps://oldschoolvalue.com/ h**ps://ycharts.com/ gurufocus seems very rich and informative and I like the possibility of following what (supposed) gurus are doing. They all provide some form of excel...

Perfect example, I do like it, so here comes a question I asked before without getting any clear answer: couldn't this be used to try start a trend? Could I agree to buy or sell with a buddy on the other side at a higher or lower price and go on for sometime at this game to try induce others to...

Are you saying that the price at which these trades closed is precisely (or is it just closely?) tracking the security price? nt

Ok, but does a price movement mean trades closed at that new price? There are numerous papers on price discovery but surprisingly no one has a precise idea of how price in a given moment is identified. In fact I read a paper that stated that the same security might be traded on different...

Let me try to rephrase my idea again. If you are able to sell it is only because someone else on the other side is buying and this process of stocks changing hands is exactly the same when price is moving up or down. Why then isn't this ownership change taking place at a fixed price? What I...

Rule 41 Don't Be Penny-wise And Pound Foolish When you decide to enter the market, avoid the temptation to put a price order in to get it just a bit cheaper. This nickel-and-dime mindset will cost quarters and dollars in the long run. If you have spotted a buying formation on your stock chart...

What happens to a buy market order if no one is selling? Does a market order ever land in the limit order book? Does it get rejected? Thanks nt

I've already asked about stock price movements and to make it short most answers pointed to supply/demand dynamics to explain them but I've been reading and thinking about it and still don't have a clear model of the thing in my head. I've numbered my questions below. 1) My biggest doubt is...

Yeah, I understand what influences the price, yet out of all posts here, no one has clearly explained what defines the last price (someone stated that it is the price of the last trade but is it?) or if it a calculated price. nt

yeah, when you win you are always right, but are you always a winner? nt

I was looking at the TOC of your book and you suggest leverage ETFs. Looking around I have found various articles suggesting to keep away from leveraged ETFs https://www.forbes.com/sites/katestalter/2017/01/23/why-that-leveraged-etf-is-a-bad-idea/#6537c7a56ed2...

I recently discovered the tick index ($TICK) and the $OEXA200R index (percentage of S&P 100 stocks above their 200 DMA) as valid overall stock market indicators. And for volatility I look at the S&P 500 Index (VIX) and the NASDAQ 100 VIX Index (VXN). What are you using for tracking market...

Funny, stuff I've been reading usually says never to go with market orders, always use limit orders. nt

when you say "on lower buy and on lower low buy" are you suggesting to average down your first buy? Isn't averaging down something that all trader rule sets suggest you should never do? nt

Ok this I do understand and can accept as an explanation of how things work but then I can't explain what happened to me once as a buyer and another time as a seller. I once posted a limit order with the wrong (higher) price and unfortunately I noticed the error too late, when the trade was...

I said it, I can be both the seller and the buyer sides or, if this does not satisfy you, I can have a buddy that acts as the buying side to close the trade at a higher price. What I was trying to state is that if closing trades at a lower price or higher price than the current price is all that...

I'm reading a book that states the following Buy High - Sell Low Probably the most interesting rule for successful trading is to “Buy High and Exit Higher, and Sell Low and Exit Lower.” This is counter-intuitive to what we all have a natural inclination to do, which is buy low, sell high. Most...

Be both the buyer and the seller and sell higher than the current price if I want price to move up or sell lower if I want it to move down nt
