What is the best time of the day to trade?

Does it even matter what day of the week the trade operation is done? As long as you do your research and know the stock you're invested in, you should have no troubles choosing the best timing to short or whatever you intend to do.

From what I've heard - Mondays tend to bring unexpeced news. I saw a lot of people who's justify a falling stock by something like ''Don't mind people, it's okay, a simple Monday practice''. Not sure how it is connected though. Maybe someone can clarify that for me?

If you ask Bob Geldof, he has the answer!

J.S. You seem pretty cool. So I just have to tell you this. I could just stay inside, not eat, shower or brush, and post replies to ET all day. Wait a minute. Hey at least I'm not overtrading.--Swimr

Ah the back. Yes I know we'll. It's all about balance for me today. It's a constant thing cause I'm always looking for it. I traded that way and left before I changed
If one thinks that finding the proper time to trade is going to do it, well, yes and no. Losing money screws with your head. So does making a lot
The obvious solution is to trade at a level that's low enough not to scare you and high enough to make it interesting. I have only recently fully understood this

BTW gardening and trading are sim in that they are both supposed to be enjoyed for the process. When I started to get that, my trading improved greatly. It's the great irony

JS, your lines are almost perfect, though I would draw them a bit lower, at .50 and .00... also I would use some color to spice it up (Green at .5 Red at .00)...

Thx VO, but my colors are now set in stone, for a reason. As for the "near perfect", nothing is perfect, nor does it have to be - it is what it is!

The main thing, is to "focus" on what you need to look at, and forget about things that do not really matter - it is amazing that if you show a child how to trade, and just offer a bag of sweets if he does as he is told, he will do it - show an adult, offer a pot of gold, and he will do the exact opposite to what you showed him!

I wonder why :rolleyes:

I agree 100% C63, as half the job is liking what you are doing, but with trading you need to be very careful, as to make money, you need to do what you need to do, even if you don't like it !
