I will post trades for the next day: entry, stops, and targets. I will try for an average gain of 2% and a win rate of 70%.

<u>For Friday, Aug 24:</u>
<b>WCC</b>
Buy below 61.67
Stop 59.89 (-2.9%)
Target 67.0 (+8.6%)

I have started a blog at http://www.nothingtheory.com, where I have posted some of my novice market comments in addition to the trades I will be posting here.

Pretty much a dull, low volume day. But think next week will be different. I am in WCC at 61.66. It closed at 61.60. Here are my potential trades for Monday.

Nothing Theory

NASDAQ seems to have begun the breakout from last week's consolidation. Looks like could be a good week.

VCP and VAR (from yesterday's list) have been added to my open positions. WFR, FNSR and SORC did not meet the Entry Price.

I'm holding VCP, VAR, and WCC.

Nothing Theory

nothingtheory · Aug 29, 2006

Turned out to be a nice bullish day. I have to admit, I was a little concerned for awhile (emotional tolerances seem to be adversely affected the higher the margin). I think things continue to look favorable for the longs over the next few days.

Since I began, six stocks have met their entry prices:

WCC (-2.9%) stopped out
VCP (+1.8%) open
VAR (+0.7%) open
GEO (+1.1%) open
NTY (+1.7%) open
ZOLL (+0.3%) open

Here are my trades for tomorrow:

Today seemed like a good bullish day, but I kind of feel like tomorrow could be a 50/50 type day. Maybe higher early followed by a tapering off toward the close? I... don't know. So I am skipping the trade ideas for tomorrow.

Since I began, seven stocks have met their entry prices. I revised the stops for NTY and VCP to 29.57 and 16.19 respectively.

IPSU (+1.9%) open
ZOLL (-0.3%) open
NTY (+2.0%) open
GEO (+1.8%) open
VAR (-0.2%) open
VCP (+2.8%) open
WCC (-2.9%) stopped out

Well, it was pretty much an equilibrium day, NASDAQ down 2. It would be nice if the NASDAQ would sell off a bit to around 2165-2170 or so. But, it seems things could go either way.

Not off to as good a start as I hoped. 3 closed positions and 4 opens:

Open:
IPSU (+2.7%) open
ZOLL (-0.5%) open
GEO (+0.1%) open
VAR (+1.5%) open

Closed:
NTY (+6.4%) hit target
VCP (-0.5%) hit revised stop
WCC (-2.9%) hit stop

Quote from AKUMATOTENSHI:

Just out of curiosity how many other stocks are you monitoring in addition to the ones posted? Are you using TA as a guide?

Good Luck with your trading

AKUMATOTENSHI:
For the most part, the stocks I post here are the ones I will follow each day. I try and pick longs that have good fundamentals/relative strength and bullish stochastic/MACD indicators on a dayily, weekly and monthly timeframes.

Just the opposite for the shorts.

I also have a trading journal blog (which you can find the url on the intial post). But I decided to start this EliteTrader journal, hoping to get some more quality (and quantity) feedback, thoughts and opinions, (since there are alot of smart people here, and nobody really goes to my blog.

Thanks for your comments and good luck to you, as well.
